About Horsfall Sand Camping

The Horsfall Sand Camping Area is an outstanding destination for off-road vehicle enthusiasts. Sites are located directly on the sand at the southern end of the Oregon Dunes National Recreation Area. From here, adventure seekers can experience the thrill of riding through vast open dunes or meandering through designated sand routes surrounded by coastal forest. The tops of the dunes provide prime views of the Pacific Coast to the west and the foothills of the Oregon Coast Range to the east.These sites are only accessible to 4X4 vehicles on soft sand. Please plan accordingly.

Number of accommodations: 36

What Guests Are Saying

Horsfall Sand Camping offers a fun atmosphere, but access can be challenging. Many visitors struggled with the difficult road conditions and found it hard to camp near their group due to existing occupancy. Improved communication about vehicle requirements and campsite availability would enhance the experience.

I enjoy camping on the sand. As long as you have the right vehicle and know how to drive it, the dunes make for a nice camp site. If you are not sure about it, stay on pavement in one of the campgrounds.

Campsite was nice. Only issue was people riding through it even when they see it was occupied.

This specific spot was not a good site for a toy hauler! We weren't able to safely set up within the required 150 feet of the post and ended up having to find a camp site somewhere else.

The forest service workers were rude. Then the camp host was even ruder as she had the adasitay to remove our tarp which was covering items in the bed of our truck saying " your making me look bad" . I will never return their in that section .. horse fall camp and horse fall beach.. both just horrible.

Loved our campsite! The previous campers from 4th of July were litterbugs so we went around and picked up their trash, but other than that it was amazing. We saw lots of animal tracks in the mornings and saw a Humboldt Martin going across one of the roads. What a beautiful fun trip!!

There is a 14-day in 30 rolling days camping limit on the Siuslaw National Forest. The 14 days does not have to be consecutive. The 14-day limit covers the entire Siuslaw National Forest and not just this campground as shown in the Rules Section. This means you cannot go to other campgrounds on the Siuslaw National Forest after reaching the 14-day limit.
