Loved the many trails around the lakes and off to the dunes. The campground was very quiet and well maintained.

Alder Dune is very close to Florence, Oregon, as well as the beautiful Baker and Heceta Beaches. It is situated in a unique landscape with some trails scratched into explore the lakes, dune area and interesting vegetation. It is nice to have this campground open in the winter months. Look for sites as far from Highway 101 as possible to minimize highway noise. The day use area is very well kept up.

Host currently is a total bossy jerk with attitude issues. This place used to be affordable several years ago. Price was single digit price now 17 plus for america beautiful pass. I question price as not much updating done.
