We found one boondocking site along the Oregon Coast by driving up a logging road. Not gonna tell where, though. Also, there are some free campsites in the Tillamook Forest: http://www.oregon.gov/odf/tillamookstateforest/pages/campgrounds.aspx

campgrounds which are more basic and cheaper.
Have fun. We are headed there in the latter part of May after exploring the East side.
