Clean park with great hiking trails. Fairly clean restrooms. Drove down to the beach and took the…read moredogs to see the Peter irondale. This camping trip they had a free concert on the lawn by the battery. I love that the golf carts drive by to bring you firewood for a standard $7 fee. Terrible reception and cellular in the park. Overall great trip with lots of sunshine.

This is based on a 2-night stay at a the F-Loop. *Access to…read morenature: 5 stars. The lake is amazing. Multiple access points to the beach, including the ability to drive onto the beach. Absolutely stunning views. *Privacy in campgrounds: 1 star You will enjoy no separation from neighboring campsites. Enjoy dinner with all other surrounding sites staring at you! Plus, if tent camping, you can hear the neighbors whisper. *Cleanliness of campsite: 5 stars Not a piece of trash in the campsite. Was well cleaned. *Location of restrooms/showers: 4 stars Took less than 2 minutes to walk to the restrooms/showers located in the center of the loop. *Cleanliness of restrooms: 3 stars Not good, not bad. Floors haven't been swept in a long time. Everywhere is sticky. *Cleanliness of showers: 1 star F-loop showers were NASTY. Fishing lure in the drain, hair on the walls, gum stuck to the floor, diapers left inside. WEAR SHOES WHILE YOU SHOWER. E-Loop showers next door were much, much more reasonable. *Noise: 1 star Quiet hours are from 10pm-7am. However, it is not enforced. Every single other camper quieted down around 10pm. Except for one exceptionally loud group who continued to be loud and obnoxious until midnight. We were harassed by this group but didn't have a problem with anyone else. CALL THE PARK ASAP if you are having issues like this early in the day because they don't patrol.(503)861‑3170 x 21. *They sell wood and ice at a reasonable price with a drop box for cash payment. *Is less than a 15 minute drive to Fred Meyer. *There is a giant playground and they were offering Junior Ranger "classes" for kids. *Bike, Kayak, and Paddle-board rentals were available.

We didn't end up at the actual lake, but in a big parking area. Turns out the lake is separate from…read morethe other side of the State Park. Essentially we just parked and took the only trail we saw which led to the sand. There wasn't much to see here, but as a result the beach area was empty. They do have decent rest rooms and loads of parking. Again, can't speak for the lake.

There are two pieces to Loomis Lake Park - there is the freshwater lake with a small boat launch on…read morethe east side of Pacific Hwy, and the State Park proper a little south and on the west side of the hwy. The Park provides access to the pacific ocean beaches. Loomis Lake itself was a great place to kick in a couple of kayaks and spend the morning enjoying the scenerey. We fished one day a caught a few nice size trout (late July) which was a nice surprise. Fishing from shore is not a good option here. Loomis Lake opens the last Saturday in April through October 31st. This shallow and weedy lake provides fair fishing for largemouth bass and yellow perch. It receives rainbow trout plants prior to opening day. The WDFW access provides a gravel boat launch and a ADA acessible vault toilet. The launch site is shallow and difficult for trailered boats. A boat/fishing dock constructed with RCO funds was badly damaged by storms in 2005 and again in 2006 and has since been removed.

Home is where the heart is. This area was my stomping…read more grounds for many moons! I use to go to Ecola state park, regularly growing up. Go on hikes,look for rocks shells,surf, get lost in nature, just sit in the grass and watch the ocean. Here is what you can do at Ecola State Park: Hiking & Walking: Explore trails ranging from easy strolls to challenging hikes through Sitka spruce forests. The Clatsop Loop Trail follows the path of1806 explorers, while the Oregon Coast Trail offers longer, scenic treks. Indian Beach: A popular, secluded cove for surfing, sunbathing, and tide-pooling to see sea stars and anemones. Viewpoints: Take in spectacular vistas from Ecola Point, including views of the Tillamook Rock Lighthouse ("Terrible Tilly") and distant Haystack Rock. Wildlife Viewing: The park is known for herds of elk grazing in the meadows, as well as sightings of bald eagles and migrating gray whales. Picnicking: Enjoy lunch at the picnic areas located on the grassy bluffs with ocean views. Photography: The dramatic, moody coastline provides excellent opportunities for photography. Oregon State

Forgive me for this late review. I should have written it long ago, but perhaps the trees and the…read moreocean were patient enough to wait. The drive through the forest is a passage into another world. Sitka spruce and hemlock lean over the road as if they are curious about you. At the end of the road the land opens and the Pacific announces itself in vast gray blues and greens, broken by sea stacks that rise like stubborn monuments. The trails are generous. Some wander to secret beaches, others climb to high points where the ocean and horizon meet like two old friends. Indian Beach is a gathering of tide pools, surfers, and quiet sand. Crescent Beach feels private, almost hidden, with the company of seals if you are lucky. Wildlife belongs here as much as people. Elk graze, eagles soar, and sometimes whales turn the water into theater. The park offers all of this without asking much in return, except that you take your time. Bring layers because the wind and mist move through the park like they own the place. Take your time. Sit, watch, breathe. This park gives you a rare combination of accessibility, natural beauty, and serenity. I regret not praising this place sooner. Ecola State Park holds the kind of beauty that makes you feel both small and fortunate. Five stars, without hesitation.

This is either an immature Pine Siskin or immature female House Finch. Based on the beak, I'm leaning towards Siskin

This park is far removed from most of everything and wifi is spotty, so I'm glad I found this…read moreplace. Looks like nothing but a sign in the forest when you come to the end of the road. Getting out and walking the trail shows a sandy beach with tall grass. I was one of three people here. It was eerily quiet. Being a state park, a Discovery Park pass or $10 fee is required to park here. Crabbing and fishing are permitted. Giant trees covered in moss and lichen.

Wandered into the park looking to find the peninsula point and an easier walk with our 2 small…read moredogs. We were so lucky to meet a couple of trail stewards in the uppermost parking lot who advised us how to pay (pay in advance online, write the confirmation code, and place on your dash) as there is no machine on site. They also made sure we knew which areas the dogs were allowed in (everything south of the wildlife refuge) and which they are not (wildlife refuge itself). And walked with us for the first part of the Dune Loop trail along the bay beach. Much appreciated as the trail on the beach can be a bit difficult during the higher parts of a tide. We saw about 15 eagles flying together all enjoying the clear day and thermals, so many amazing trees with gorgeous moss and ferns, and yes even in end of February...a couple of garter snakes. It's a fairly easy hike in terms of elevation but I will say you need to be surefooted along the beach for sure but also through the forest as the trail has many roots and pinecones. It was easy enough that our dogs were able to do the full 2.8 mile loop without needing to be toted. Overall it's worth spending a morning or afternoon exploring, especially on the bay side. The sound of the ocean and trees are the only 'noise' and the traffic seemed to just be a couple of other folks and a lot of sandpipers.
