I like the area around Newport or any town with a commercial fishing fleet.
LOL its not a foreign country of fishermen- Learn to spell the name of the State and then how to pronounce it.

Lived on the coast in 1972-73 -common bumper sticker was
"Don't Californicate Oregon"- If I read your signature correctly you have a TC, so you can get into many of the smaller spaces in the SP. Go to Reserve America there may be hope yet. That said the SP on the coast are near capacity all summer.

- You could try the KOA across from FT Stevens, Netarts Bay RV, Salmon Harbor at Winchester Bay, and Brookings Harbor. Allare private and may have a few sites. But dont expect views.
- If there are no spots available at the state parks, there are a few decent private campgrounds. I would make reservations now if there is anything open because it won’t last long. It is some of the most beautiful coastline in the country.
- Maybe next year? OregOn state parks especially on the coast are generally sold out months in advance. Heck even the decent private parks are full. Maybe plan a drive/motel trip.
- The popular state campgrounds are probably booked but some do have sites for drive ups. We have had pretty good luck getting to a campground around noon and waiting for something to open up. Helps to talk to the hosts. Check the Oregon State site for those that do have non reserve sites some are reservation only.
