What Guests Are Saying

The campground along the Alsea River is praised for its beautiful location, clean facilities, and well-maintained sites, making it ideal for swimming and kayaking. While many enjoyed the quiet atmosphere and friendly hosts, some guests expressed dissatisfaction with individual host interactions and concerns about safety with children riding bikes. Overall, the campground offers a lovely experience, though improvements in host management and accessibility to the river are suggested.

Was very noisy during the 4th of July days that we were there. During our first day when we were out someone stole our BBQ that was left near the fireplace. And a little dogbag… many kids.

No Privacy, sites too close to the drive and way too close together. Too close to highway although it wasn't busy. Some campers need to monitor their children's behavior better and one family stayed up until 0300 with music on and talking on the way to the bathroom. Caretaker was not far away but in a hardside, so probably didn't hear. It is a small campground with no real trails so disappointing in that regard--had to go elsewhere for much of a walk.
Plusses--at some sites you can hear the river gurgling, bathrooms were clean, caretaker pleasant.
I don't plan to return to this campground as it doesn't work for me.

Came as a large group and booked #33 to be a bit away from the crowd noise and it was amazing. Will definitely come back.

This is a lovely campground but this spot #31 is basically in someone's backyard. Best spots are on the river.

We have been going there over 30 years. We love it. This year the bathrooms(outhouses). We’re not in the best shape. They needed to be emptied and weren’t the cleanest.

  • Standard cancellations usually have a $10 cancellation fee. Customers can generally cancel before the check-in date online.
  • Late cancellation rules differ by stay type.
    • Individual campsites: cancelling after 12:00am local time the day before arrival usually means a $10 cancellation fee plus forfeiting the first night's fee.
    • Cabins, lookouts, and yurts: cancelling less than 14 days before arrival usually means a $10 cancellation fee plus forfeiting the first night's fee.

  • Modifications are allowed before the cut-off window, but fees depend on the change. Changing to dates completely outside the original reservation dates may trigger a $10 change fee. Extending or shortening a stay that still includes original dates usually has no change fee, though refunds may depend on timing and facility rules. Switching to the same type of campsite for the same dates usually has no change fee, but price differences are charged or refunded.
