The best waterside camping near Beaver

·

Named for Oregon's state animal, the tiny community of Beaver services Tillamook County residents and visitors alike with a small grocery shop, an automotive shop, and a gas station. It's not much of a destination in and of itself, but it's nearby plenty of great camping areas along Nestucca River and is a great spot to pick up supplies. Beaver is also just a short drive from the rugged Oregon coastline and is just down the road from the city of Tillamook, known around the world for its cheese and dairy products.

8.1mi from Beaver · 17 sites · Tents, RVs · Beaver, OR
Powder Creek Ranch is 362 acres, nestled into a valley, surrounded by forest in the Oregon Coast Range. The campground is in a secluded meadow next to Powder Creek, a pristine year round stream, perfect for wading and playing in. If you're looking to unplug and escape from the chaos of city life, we are all about peace and quiet and connecting with nature. Each of our 13 extra large campsites offers access to the creek, a picnic table and campfire ring. All sites accommodate RVs as well as tent camping. No hook-ups or potable water available. There are seven (7) creek side sites, one site next to a pond and all have ample space around them so you don't feel crowded. Our newest addition is a cabin overlooking Powder Creek, tucked away by itself. Solar powered. The Ranch has 1/2 mile of Nestucca River frontage where you can swim or fish, whichever floats your boat. Niagara Creek/Pheasant Creek falls is a nearby hiking trail and there are roads as well as deer and elk trails to explore all over the ranch. If you feel like venturing further, the beach is 23 miles away in Pacific City. Tillamook is 25 miles. We also offer pasture raised pork for sale. A variety of sausages (breakfast, chorizo, Italian, Bratwurst and French Garlic links) and pork chops.

Where to go

Tillamook

A short drive from Beaver, Tillamook is home to a number of museums as well as a forest center and a popular creamery offering tours and plenty of cheese samples. The coastal city also has plenty of great dining options where seafood takes center stage.

Along the Oregon Coast

Camping in and around Beaver gives you easy access to miles of beautiful Oregon coastline. Nearby highlights include Tierra Del Mar and Cape Lookout State Park.

The Van Duzer Corridor

South of Beaver lies the Van Duzer Corridor, a beautiful stretch of forest part of the greater Willamette Valley AVA. Here you'll find a handful of tasting rooms and wineries serving up the local specialty: Pinot Noir.

When to go

If beautiful views are what you are after, the Oregon Coast is fantastic any time of year, but the late spring and summer months are generally best, when it’s less likely to be rainy. Summer in particular is ideal for camping in the region, although it’s important to note that campsites fill up quickly and first-come, first-served sites can be difficult to secure, particularly during summer vacation. Things calm down a bit after Labor Day.
