Nice location, very good tent sites. And a lake with both trout and bass.

$31 dollars to put up a tent for a night with just the basics. Picknick table and fire ring. water in certain places. At least the pit toilets were some of the cleanest we encountered on our 10 day camping trip. Also it is far away from the beach and the dunes around the campground are not high enough that you could see the beach or a sunset. You can still get some pretty pictures just not of the beach or water.

Really lovely, simple campground - we caught fish in the lake, enjoyed the quiet, and will definitely be back next year.

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.

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.
