Sutton Campground

Sites are private with plenty of trees and vegetation. The hiking is great and easily accessible from the campsites.

Well kept campground, nice hosts, clean bathroom. Had some privacy in between sites and no road noise from Loop A

The site is private and wooded and was in close proximity to places we wanted to explore. This loop was removed enough from 101 that there was absolutely no road noise. We had a great short trip here and would stay here again. Only thing that would be an added bonus were if they were showers.

The Good: Camp Host was a terrific guy. Our site was pretty good and would have hat lots of camp fire wood if not for a burn ban. The bike trail around the lake is fantastic and we enjoyed it a great deal. I can't believe there isn't much said anywhere about the John Dillenbeck trail but it's paved and very scenic.
The Bad: Bathrooms have not been maintained and are in disrepair. The bike trail is also not being maintained anymore and God is slowly repossessing it.
The Ugly: If you have a big fifth wheel like we do, this is tough to turn around here and even the sites that "DO" work, are a barely. Most sites for big rigs are un level or have trees very close. However, I like it here better than the RV park so will put in more effort and bring my own pruning shears for all the low limbs.

Nice and quiet. Great neighbors. We love this campground.
Just don't plan on a short walk to the beach, it is more of a hike.
Lots of hiking trails in camp.
Close to Sutton Lake and a short hike to the dunes.

Large campground with sites near a stream or more secluded. Very well maintained. Only suggestion is for trail signs that said where the trails ended up. It was hard to find the trail to the lake, for instance.
Otherwise, loved it and will go back.

We lucked out with sunny skies for all but one of the five days we camped at Sutton Campground, near Florence, Oregon. The campground had flushing toilets and water, unlike other Oregon campgrounds we've visited. Our campsite was clean, relatively private, and very quiet. We had a campfire every evening, complete with s'mores, of course. On Tuesday, we hiked the trails in and around the campsite. It rained on Wednesday, so we ate at local restaurants and visited a military museum. While at the museum, we watched a video about Camp Adair and learned how and why it was established. We also visited the temporary office of a local political party, where we met some wonderful people. Fred Meyer is nearby, where we bought a tarp to cover our tent. There are three laundromats with showers available in Florence, where we dried our sleeping bags after the rains. There is a multiplex movie theater, too. On Thursday evening, we had a picnic. on the dunes while waiting for the sunset over the Pacific Ocean horizon. We had a great time and will be back!

The campground as a whole is fairly well done with good to moderate room between sites. Sites near the bathrooms were VERY near--too close for my comfort. I unfortunately picked one of these to be near friends who selected a roomier site. My site had AC--I suspect this explained the close-in sites around the bathrooms, but did not doublecheck this. My reason for not rated this experience higher is that our site also was bordered by a path for other campers to reach the bathroom and what appeared to be the septic area for the bathroom: a plywood-covered area marked with yellow-taped stanchions, partially-uncovered 6" clean-outs and a nice ripe sewage smell. There were plenty of good sites, but don't take A-04.

Quiet and clean campground. Beautiful area and wonderful hiking trails right from camp.

We were in #16 with a 25' travel trailer. The site and whole campground were very clean. The hosts were very nice and worked hard at keeping it that way.
