There was no running water for two weeks prior to our arrival, and we were not notified about that before we got there. It was extremely disappointing.

Eel Creek Campground is praised for its beautiful setting, with a unique blend of forest and sand dunes, offering spacious, private campsites and well-maintained facilities. The camp host, Rick, is frequently highlighted for his helpfulness and friendliness, contributing significantly to guests' positive experiences. While some visitors noted minor issues like bathroom distance and noise from garbage collection, the overall sentiment is one of enjoyment and appreciation for the campground's peaceful atmosphere and access to nature.

What a great little spot!! Perched on a bluff overlooking a winding creek with fields beyond, there is shade and sun, and just enough amenities- a hot shower outdoors, porta potty, and comfy platform with mattress. You can pitch your tent on the platform, but I just chose to sleep under the stars. There's an outdoor gazebo area (shared use) with an electric tea pot power strip (for charging devices), and more. At no extra charge there's a sweet doggie, Roscoe, to pat- but guard your dinner carefully- he's interested!! The host, Season, is very friendly and welcoming without being "in the way". I thoroughly enjoyed my stay there.

Set in a beautiful coastal forest in the dunes. Sometimes you can hear the dune buggies, but not overly close. Campsites have good separation and some privacy.

Nice location with easy access to Oregon Dunes via a short trail from the campground. They did not have water service in September 2021. There was water across the road at the state park, so I don't know what the problem was. No indication of when it will be back up. So there were only port-a-potties offered as service. Not sure if the regular bathrooms have showers when there is water. There are probably better places to camp and enjoy the dunes.
