Lots of beautiful trees

Very well maintained camp. Staff super friendly. Not very good for Starlink internet connection, except for a few sites. Very close to Dunes.

Excellent stay

The staff were very nice upon arrival. Sites were first come but there were plenty to pick from even when we arrived later in the evening. There is a new playground (not as shown in the photos) right next to the pool that our kids loved. This place has the nicest bathrooms we've ever encountered at a campground! We will definitely be back!

Great place to meet people and have fun!

Stayed here over 4th of July. Our neighbors were really friendly and ready to party! This is not where you go for privacy or serenity. People who stay here are going to the dunes typically. Easy to check in and pay, fam friendly and pet friendly.

Pretty Forested Camping, a few improvements needed.

The campground itself is pretty typical of Thousand Trails. There are only a few sites that are FHU, one of which we stayed in after moving from a no sewer site after a few days. There are, however, grey water disposals throughout the park. When we were there, they were unusable because the water in them wouldn't drain. The rangers advised us not to use them and to dump stuff in the toilets. The toilets near our first site were closed for maintenance, so it was a trek to dispose of grey water.

We did have someone steal a full 5 gallon gas can which was not locked up while we were there. Our neighbors had their propane tank stolen. The Rangers indicated that they do have people who walk through the park and take things, mostly bikes. Locking up things is a must. We used the pool, the hot tubs, and the main lodge showers, all of which were nice. We will definitely stay there again. The Rangers were helpful and professional. They charge $5 per package delivery if it is RV Parts or Medications.

Solid experience

So, the place is an RV resort. There is a pool, hot tubs, rec center, (weak) wifi, a gate with a code to go in and out, same for the bathrooms. It has been very enjoyable.

The bathrooms are so clean and spacious and they don’t feel crowded or gross. The showers are 10/10.

Learned Valuable Lessons

This is a great campground!! We stayed from 25 Feb - 2 March. The Oregon Coast had had a ton of rain in the last few weeks, so parts of the campground were under water. The Lesson: we arrived in mid-afternoon and quickly chose a site and got everything set up. It was one of the lesser flooded sites, but still very very muddy. We travel with two dogs, so the amount of mud around the trailer was going to be an issue. We took a walk around the campground on found the high-side of the campground, much bigger, much drier sites. We made a dash for the trailer to get everything packed back in so we could move!! The site we chose was much better than the previous site!! A beautiful wooded dry area. The lesson, .....look at the entire campground before you pick your spot!!

Close to the Dunes

This is a typical Thousand Trails and was a bit of a challenge to navigate. Narrow roads and hard to find a space. We did enjoy the location and its proximity to the dunes and the beautiful coast of Oregon.

Shady and cool

This is one of our favorite campgrounds, very similar to Thousand Trails Pacific City. We stay three nights from June 18th through 21st, 2020, at campsite E136, the stay was free due to our Thousand Trails membership. Our site had electricity and water hook up. The site was level and easy to back in to. 

Our site was very private with trees and bushes between our site and neighbors on each side. The E loop bathhouse was two spots down and up a flight of stairs. We were a couple of spaces from the dog run. The campground was at sea level and just a mile or so from Florence, Oregon, and a mile from the Oregon Dunes Recreation area. Once we entering the campground, the campground roads are all gravel, however we found the layout and map to be confusing as we got of directions down. 

This is a very quiet campground, activities were minimal due to Covid-19 restrictions. We are looking forward to coming back post Covid-19 to take advantage of the closed outdoor pool, hot tub and clubhouse. The campground had clean showers, plenty of hot water and not more than a 2 minute walk from our campsite. 

There are two dump stations at the exit of the campground, easy to maneuver into. My wife and I enjoyed the campground, we took a trip to Heceta Lighthouse for the day, geocached and hiked around the lighthouse. 

On Sunday when we were leaving South Jetty we passed Dan and Jen Nevada, from YouTube notoriety. They were arriving at South Jetty and scoping out their site, Jen gave us their sticker and business card.  Their Youtube site is https://www.youtube.com/user/flyfishnevada/videos

Near the dunes, foresty

Easy check in. Kinda confusing map/layout, but we were able to find a spot easily. Decent privacy for smaller RVs and tents, might struggle with larger rigs. Looks like fun amenities if it wasn’t COVID-19 time 🙁. Definitely a drive to the dunes or the beach, not really very walkable.

Not the worst, not the best

This park has great potential, but the spaces were rather small. There was just enough room for our trailer, and not much else. We were barely able to open the door with the picnic table and fire pit halfway into the next space. Nice community areas though.

Gloomy pit but good dog park

When we Stayed: Mid-April, Thursday night

Overall Experience: would not stay again in the tiny, cramped, dark campsite.

Sites: the whole park was down a slope with a creek running through. It was dark and gloomy and a mosquito haven. Our site was uneven and narrow. Walking around, the park seemed nicer especially on the upper loop with bigger sites and less mosquitos.

Dog Friendly: the best part about the park was the nice sized off leash dog park.
