Great Beach Spot, But Very Tight!
We really enjoyed our stay at The Retreat at Cannon Beach overall! The location is great if being close to the beach is important to you, and we loved how easy it was to get down to the ocean. The campground itself was clean and well kept, and having showers available was a huge plus. The showers were also surprisingly clean for a campground.
The hosts and staff were very friendly, and despite having quite a few people around, it was actually really quiet during our stay.
Our biggest complaint was how tight the campsites are. Everyone is basically stacked right on top of each other, so there isn’t much privacy or room between you and your neighbors. The campground is also very close to the freeway, which takes away a little from that peaceful camping-in-the-woods feeling.
The weather was your typical Cannon Beach weather, but that’s part of camping on the Oregon Coast! 😂🌊
Overall, we had a good stay. If you’re looking for a clean campground that’s close to the beach with nice staff and showers, it’s a good option. Just be prepared for tight campsites and the nearby freeway.
