Nice little forest service campground. Wooded with a secluded feel. Clean. Quiet. Super nice host. Not on ocean, but can hear a quiet ocean roar.

Love national forest campsites for their simplicity and peace and quiet! This was a lovely spot in the woods.

Very lovely campground. Super friendly camp host! We checked out a day early only because of the cruddy weather, but we thoroughly enjoyed our stay otherwise!

Beautiful, green, quiet campground. Host was very friendly and helpful. Florence is conveniently close and is an easy run in for anything one might forget. There are no showers on site, as noted, but there are nice showers + laundry in Florence if needed. There's a lovely short walk around a lake at the campsite with options to branch off towards the dunes. Note - you can't really walk to the beach from the campsite.

Great place, I would highly recommend it. It’s even better if they have a shower. Camp Host was very accommodating and super nice.

Cute lil campground with shrubs between the sites. The Camp Host is super friendly and helped me out when the space I chose online was not going to work with my camp set up. He made sure I was taken care of. I will definitely be back.

I almost hate to share a review because I don't want too many others finding out about this place! For those looking for a beautiful environment to camp in, look no further. Stocked lakes, multiple trails through the dune forest, waterfowl. otters, many other critters. And best of all, NO RV HOOKUPS! Mainly tent campers or small, unplugged vans or trailers.
The off season rules. I arrived on a chilly day with sprinkles. It turned into magnificent sunshine and 58 degrees in January. Star filled skies at night. A little road noise from HWY 101 but not terrible. And in two nights of camping, I saw one other camper in the entire campground. Perfect!
