Hagg lake, Horning's Hideout, Dorman's Pond and the Wilson River are all popular spots. We have clean well water and 50A electrical hookups. We do not offer dumping of black water, but you can empty your tank at the Elks club in Forest Grove (25-minute drive) for free or Camping World over in Hillsboro. I don't mind if you drain your gray water on the property as long as you use a longer hose to keep it away from the immediate camping area. The parking area for RV's is fairly level and easy to get in and out of. During the late summer we have 5 producing apple trees, 2 plum trees, and a lot of blackberries. Feel free to pick what you would like. Currently, we do not have any public bathroom facilities available for campers, so please plan accordingly. There is a public bathroom at the "Manning Trailhead" about 1.5 miles away. Please feel free to ask me any questions, we are willing to make accommodations for special situations/events if possible!

Camping near Seaside guide

Overview

It’s all surf and sandy beaches in Seaside, a small village on Oregon’s north coast. When summer strikes, Seaside comes to life with sun-seekers and adventure hounds. Join in the fun—with swimming, paddling, hiking, and family activities; there’s something for everyone.

Close to town, several private RV parks offer a variety of creature comforts, including Wi-Fi and swimming pools. For year-round RV and tent camping, head north to Fort Stevens State Park near Astoria. Swim in the freshwater lake, or head to the ocean to see a historic shipwreck. In the campground, you’ll find hot showers, picnic tables, and sites with full hookups.

About 20 miles east of Seaside, the Saddle Mountain State Natural Area is the perfect place to get away. From your primitive tent site, hike 2.5 miles to the summit for breathtaking views.

After you explore downtown Seaside, hop on the Tillamook Head Trail. This trail, which was once used by Lewis and Clark, runs south toward Cannon Beach. If you’re through-hiking the Oregon Coast, you can camp in the rustic cabins along the way.

The main camping season near Seaside runs from spring through early fall. Cabin rentals are a great way to enjoy the cold, wet fall and winter. The waves are fierce, and the misty mornings add an element of mystery to every hike.
