Cape Perpetua

Site #26 You will never be level or close to it here. this slopes down away from road. We had to put our popup trailer tires all the way to the back , bed in bushes to even think of getting close to level. 12 ft box popup. If you are any bigger footprint it will be a no go. This is a common issue at many sites in this campground. Car tent camping is fine but trailers? not so much be warned . restrooms are very nice, flush & clean. Host is pleasant and helpful with info and numbers as we needed mobile mechanical help on our trailer. Next to a bubbling stream, great white noise or background soothing. beautiful forest yet open too. some privacy some sites.

Beautiful campground with many options for sightseeing within walking distance. Used the trails from campground to explore beach, tide pools, old growth forest, and more!

Good location

The Cape Perpetua & Yachats area is our favorite of the entire Oregon coast. We always plan our trips there to coincide with the highest tides in the evening, when the wave action is most spectacular and the lighting is best. We hike from our camp site to access the rocky coastline scenery from the Spouting Horn to Devil's Churn. We drive into Yachats to walk the 804 trail.

Cons: I knocked off a star because most of the parking pads at the campground are quite sloped, making it difficult to level our little motor home. The campground was build so many years ago there were probably not any motor homes in existence to consider. Of course, If you are tent camping that will not be an issue for you. Note that some sites are ideal for tent camping because the tent pad and picnic table are very secluded, away from the road and in the woods.
No T-Mobile cell service. This became important when I had a medical emergency during the night. We broke camp at 1:20 a.m. and drove into Yachats to get cell service, then north on Hwy 101 to a hospital in Newport.

It was lovely hearing the babbling brook as a backdrop for our nights by the fire. I really like the flora in this area - leaning more toward rainforest. Many of the tents sites were secluded in wooded areas. Restrooms were clean and stocked. The group site was really well-designed and inviting. It was a nice hike to the beach and tidepools. Hope to get more hiking in next time. And of course, the viewpoint is incomparable. We were inside a cloud when we parked. I recommend watersox-type shoes for the volcanic rock tidepools and light windbreakers.

A good spot tucked off 101, easy access to cove beach and a simple walk to Devil’s Churn. A very quiet and pleasant site, great for kids.

Beautiful area. Good water. Easy and clean bathrooms. Awesome trails. Love this place.

ZERO complaints! Perfect spot on the Oregon coast, unique and spacious sites, clean and accessible bathrooms, hiking trails around the camp, an awesome Vietnam Vet as the camp host, and a babbling brook to lull you to sleep! Look for pictures of your site before booking, some are trickier to get to but that can make them cooler depending on your style.

The camp host, Larry, was very helpful. The park was clean including all of the restrooms. It was a very rewarding visit.

Camp hosts were awesome
