Simple and quiet

—————INTERNET—————

Verizon via iPhone 12 with weBoost: 8.54 mbps down and 0.03 mbps up with 52 ms ping. T-Mobile via Nighthawk MR-1100 with a directional antenna: 2-8 mbps down and 0.50-1.75 mbps up with 50-80 ms ping. The campground trees block signal and our directional antenna became key for better signal.

——REASONS I STAYED HERE——

I chose this campground simply to have a place to stay between Yachats and Newport that had signal so I could work on the weekdays.

ADVICE ON SHOWERS. We didn’t take full on showers while here (3 days) since our van’s water tank is small. Instead, we waited until we arrived at our next campground, South Beach Campground near Newport (only 25 minutes north of Tillicum Beach). We got there a couple hours early so we did the whole “shower, dump tank, fill water, rinse and repeat for the next person” in the parking lot near the dump station. We were headed into Newport and didn’t want to wait until we could occupy our site to take a shower.

—————PROS—————

→ You can see the ocean from most sites. The campground is right next to the beach.

→ It’s quiet.

—————CONS—————

→ $30/night plus tax for dry camping

—————OVERALL—————

4-stars - It’s basic and served its purpose well. No red flags.
