My friend and I camped at this ranch for two nights and had a great experience. Bev is great, the ranch is really pretty and relatively close to the coast, the fishing is fun- we would 100% come back.

We have stayed three times at this campground, and enjoyed it each time. Well-maintained camping area, clean portapotties, helpful & attentive hosts. It's a beautiful place to spend time. Our only downside this time was the camping neighbors running their RV generators for hours at a time during the day, which was really very annoying and disrupted the peace & quiet, but not against the rules. When we stay at state parks, we're usually out exploring during the day, but this campground is so nice that you may want to just hang out and enjoy your spacious campsite most of the time. We will still return, but got unlucky this time with the noise.

This was our first hip camp experience and we really enjoyed our stay here! It was so beautiful and peaceful! We stayed in campsite #8 which worked out perfectly for hammock camping. Lastly, the hosts were very welcoming and kind!

I loved our stay at Powder Creek Campground! The hosts are kind and thoughtful, the sites are spacious and level, the creek is beautiful at all times of the day. This land is so special. It’s truly hard to put it all in words. My husband and I came for our anniversary weekend. We had to stay an extra day because we just couldn’t bear to leave. I have never camped at a campground where it was so relaxing and peaceful. We saw deer munching under the apple tree and a Blue Heron fly overhead to the creek. It was a magical weekend. We can’t wait to bring our family and friends back!

I had such a wonderful stay at Powder Creek! The property is stunning and falling asleep next to the running creek every night was just perfect. There were blackberries everywhere for the picking, deer everywhere, and the location is great being so close to the coast. The Outpost down the street had great breakfast! It was such a nice reset for my partner and I, and the host was so gracious, she brought us some plums, squash and cucumber from her garden which were fantastic! I definitely plan to come back, 10/10 :-)

Beautiful property and kind hosts! Sleeping with creek sounds is pretty ideal, the blackberries are EVERYWHERE, and there’s a big group of deer that’ll be camping right with ya 😅. 10 out of 10 🚐

My friends and I absolutely love this place! Every year we go camping about twice, and we always choose this campground—it never lets us down. One time we decided to try a different campground, but it turned out to be nothing like the photos and not what we expected at all. That same day, we booked at Powder Creek Campground, and thankfully there was availability—it truly saved us!
We love how spacious and friendly this place is. There’s plenty of room, which we really enjoy, and having a river nearby where we can swim makes it even better. Everyone is so kind, and the host is wonderful as well. This is our third time staying here, and we couldn’t be happier or more grateful.
Without a doubt, our annual camping trips will always be here. Thank you for being so attentive!

Cool spot with nice Nestucca frontage. Clean portapotties, huge sites, and a friendly hostess. Spot 8 is by the entrance driveway, but its a non-issue.

The site was beautiful, right by a creek and had plenty of space. The host was very helpful and responsive when I had questions.
There was a firepit and we were able to help enjoy making smores over the fire and buy bundles of firewood right on site. The campgfround was quiet, dog friendly and an overall great experience!

Bring your own tent as the existing on is on a deep slant. Unless owner made modifications.
Dinner was worth it , if you don't want to drive into town.
Felt special with private dinner.

This is an amazing place! The host is lovely, the campsite is beautiful, and the tree tent is a lot of fun. The site is surrounded by forest, and it has a lot of nice personal touches, like freshly picked flowers, that make it feel extra special. It's a quiet, peaceful spot. I definitely recommend staying here!

We stayed in site #3. It was right on the stream and it was so peaceful.
It was so quiet and a lovely campground! Each site was huge with plenty of room for tents, cars and game playing. The hosts were so kind as well.
This location was absolutely the best!
