Thanks guys. It really seems like it defeats the point of living in Oregon if one is forced into staying in KOA type campgrounds next to freeway interchanges because one owns too large of a 5th wheel to get into the nice parks.

The last time I did the Oregon coast parks was 2 years ago but that was with my daughter on a tandem and we tent-camped so I never paid attention to the sizes. We stayed at maybe a dozen different parks between Astoria and San Francisco, mostly camping in the hiker-biker sections where they always accommodate you no matter how crowded the rest of the campground is.
