Sites have a lot of privacy. Some road noise from 101. Good hiking although some trails are not very well marked.

Lovely campground, the dunes are beautiful and there's a lot to do in this area of Oregon. Have been here before and plan to return in the future. One of my favorite campgrounds, and the sites are pretty private, so noise doesn't carry as much as other grounds, and you generally don't hear the sounds from the road.
