This loop is quite tight with little to no privacy (depending on the site). The larger (closed) loop definitely looked much more appealing...but we were grateful that at least they were open. The dump station and restrooms were open, restrooms clean. Although I much prefer more spacious and private sites, the grounds were well-maintained. Nice trees and a lovely creek, but unfortunately the highway is very close and we could hear traffic the whole night.

What a well placed Oregon State Park. The tent sites are quite large each with their own fire ring…read morewhich were allowed to be used. The bathrooms were cleaned constantly and there's access to what is basically a private beach. We were there while a borderline Noah's Arc level rain fell upon the park and there was adequate drainage and thankfully our NEMO tent weathered it with no issues. This State Park is close enough to explore the restaurants in Port Orford, Bandon and Gold Beach.

We stumbled across Bandon as a 2 night camp lay over on a longer trip and decided to come back and…read moretry some of the awesome fishing and crabbing that seemed to be going on. The next year we booked a couple of charters (the bottom fish and the long leader ) with Prowler charters based mostly on the reasonable price compared to other charters in the area and they did not disappoint! It is family owned and run from the office to the ocean and they are helpful and happy to help. Our whole family have been on 3 bottom fish / long leader trips since and caught our limit every time. This week my son and I went out on the tuna trip which was a long day as you have to go out really far to hit the hot spots but, man it was worth it! Captain Wayne navigated the area like a champ and we were hitting multiple fish... up to 7 fish on at a to time more than once and I gotta say the chaos ran like clock work with the 'tuna system' they have going and everyone was involved in the team effort following the lead of the crew! Probably the best day fishing of my life... we packed it in after landing 102 big tuna on board! We will be back, you can count on that!

"ACEC" stands for Area of Critical Environmental Concern…read more Running parallel to the Pacific Ocean for nine miles, this coastal river is separated from the ocean by only a thin foredune of sand. Many rare birds, animals, and plants depend on New River's estuary, forest, meadow, wetland, and shrub habitat for survival. Dedicated by the BLM almost exclusively to Watchable Wildlife, the area remains secluded and primitive, providing nature enthusiasts with short, rustic, self-guided loop trails to view wildlife. There are four main access points to New River ACEC: Storm Ranch, Floras Lake, Lost Lake, and Four Mile. The address shown here will get you to the Storm Ranch area. Check the website for others. They're all very cool -- except maybe Floras Lake, which seems overrun with Californians riding their little kiteboards. From US Hwy 101 eight miles south of Bandon, head west at Croft Lake Lane. Entry through a gate is year-round, sunrise to sunset.

There's a playground with…read moreswings, tennis courts (with pickleball painted lines but no nets), a disc golf course, a basketball court, a baseball field, and even a horse arena. There's a small clubhouse but it's not obvious if it's in use or reservable. The bathrooms are padlocked and look like they haven't been open in years. One of the coolest things I've seen at a park is right here: a cabinet with sports equipment you can borrow. There are golf clubs and balls, tennis rackets and balls, and even a baseball glove.

This beautiful roadside stopping point is free and has easy access via an elevated boardwalk (note: you must be able to climb up and down stairs to use it, however). It's quite breezy and chilly during the entire year, so bring a sweatshirt or sweater and you'll be more comfortable. Watch for seals and gulls and other sealife, and don't forget your camera! The view is breathtaking, and it's a great way to stretch your legs and take a little break. A recommended stop!

My dog really enjoys running around and playing here. Once we are done on the beach there are plenty of trails for her to walk on and wildlife to see. She especially loves the birds and the turkeys. It's easy to spend 4 hours here daily just exploring and enjoying the water. It's fairly clean and safe since the beach is a decent ways away from the road. We haven't camped here or used the restrooms. We just enjoy the water and the trails. It's a perfect place for a picnic on a warm day and an excellent area to stretch your legs on a car trip.

We arrived late after dark and it was very easy to check in with no ranger present at the gate house. In the morning we awoke to find a beautiful campsite with easy access to the beach and the Coquille River Lighthouse. We met friendly RVers right next to us and I would gladly stay here again. Generally, Bandon doesn't get as much attention as some of the other spots up the coast, but I really liked it here. The beach is quiet and peaceful and, although it doesn't have the crazy rock formations that some others do, it is definitely worth a visit. The driftwood here was nuts!
