The best camping near Cloverdale with surfing

·

Just a short drive inland from the Oregon Coast sits the tiny community of Cloverdale. Its location on the Nestucca River makes it an ideal jumping-off point for those wanting to take advantage of the area's fishing opportunities, and there are a few basic amenities in town for campers who want to stock up on groceries, use an ATM, browse for antiques, or simply stop to stretch their legs. The Nestucca Bay Creamery and Cheese Shop is a great place to pick up locally produced cheese, handmade ice cream, and Oregon wine.

Please be careful when using Google maps, for whatever reason it has taken several people to other places other than mine. I posted a picture of the entrance of my property, hopefully this will help. Hurlys Hideaway is a very nice location located approximately 2 miles from the town of Tillamook. Very close to the beach Sand Lake various Rivers for fishing kayaking swimming Etc. Approximately 4 MI from Netarts Oceanside area, Netarts Bay, Cape Mears. A very nice location to be able to access all of these activities in Tillamook County. My land is Timber, some clearings, we'll see how this goes I'm just getting started. Also, I just learned that the transient tax for Tillamook Oregon is an additional 10% and I hate to do this but I'm going to have to raise my prices $5. If you are coming from Town, I'm 2 mi. from the hospital west on hwy. 131. Look for the purple Minnesota Vikings bus shack. I also put up a hipcamp sign just up my driveway a bit. If you are coming from the south on Fraiser road, turn right when you come to hwy. 131. I'm less than a quarter mile on your left. Also a heads up lately I've had a few people that are having a hard time booking and I learned from another camper if you're staying one night you actually have to select two days it includes the day you check out I just experienced that with another camper so just a bit information I don't know if hip camp changed something or what, but if you're staying one night select two days and it'll work.

Learn more about our land: In the heart of Willamette Valley AVA and on a breezy 20-acre lot of land we provide a space for you to set yourself up and enjoy life's natural bounty. We offer a small shared space with a wood fire stove and some essential items, many games (such as horseshoes), and lots of picnic areas and tables sprinkled throughout the property. The location is central and half an hour to just minutes away from water bodies Hagg Lake, Nestucca River, Yamhill River, little Niagara Falls, Mill Creek, Baker Creek, Rainbow Lake and more… Such as the Carlton public pool. If your looking to jaunt from camp a little further, we are located a little over an hour and a beautiful drive to the Pacific Coast and about an hour from Portland. Although in the middle of the country woods, we are surprisingly only two and a half miles from the adorable and quaint town of Carlton. So beside the views, you’ll be alongside some fantastic eateries and outstanding winemakers.  Being raised in the community, and over ten years of experience in the local food and wine industry, I can give recommendations aplenty.   ꕥ  The property has been in our family since the late 60’s and has recently been transferred in ownership to the next generation! It’s been a large adjustment with many precious memories in tow. In hopes to carry on the legacy we opened up camp mid-summer 2021, and it’s a work in progress (as work normally is!), but has been a beautiful experience being in a position to share. There are two family homes on the property with people who truly admire this land! With the work of these past couple seasons, and thanks to our fellow campers, we have been able to lay more gravel, get a more fluid bathroom situation established, and lay out a few more sites! So thank you for your continued support in this venture and in any form, I’m excited to be apart of your adventure and hope to have you in our neck of the woods soon! ❊ ❁ ❊  All the best on your ventures, Whitney!

The best camping near Cloverdale with surfing guide

Where to go

Along the Oregon Coast

Cloverdale offers easy access to the Oregon Coast. The closest city is Pacific City, a 10-minute drive away, while charming Lincoln City is half an hour from town by car.

Nestucca Bay

A short drive south of town along the Nestucca River sits scenic Nestucca Bay. Popular spots to visit along the bay include Nestucca Bay National Wildlife Refuge and the day-use-only Bob Straub State Park.

Tillamook State Forest

Just north of Cloverdale, the Tillamook State Forest offers miles of hiking trails and fishing spots, not to mention plenty of lovely campgrounds.

When to go

The best time to go camping in Cloverdale is during the warm summer season, and the weather is at its hottest and driest from July until about the middle of September. Autumn is the best time for fishing, particularly for Chinook Salmon, while coastal whale-watching opportunities on the Oregon Coast are at their best from mid-December through mid-January and from late March through May.
