Rock Crick Acres

7 sites · Lodging, RVs, Tents2 acres · Grand Ronde, OR

This hidden gem is only 1/3 of a mile off the highway yet all you can hear is the flow of the water from Rock Creek which flows along the 2 acres. There is plenty of spots to toss your tent. Personally, I prefer the bank overlooking the stream. Cool your feet on a hot summer day in Rock Creek (the main attraction). Enjoy the evenings around the fire pit. Complimentary 2 bundles of firewood, BBQ, table, chairs to use are available. Did you know the coolest porta-party in the galaxy awaits your visit? Attractions: Spirit Mountain Casino is only 4 miles away, The Oregon coast is a 25 minute drive as well as plenty of vineyards. Also enjoy 100+ miles of hiking trails. The trail head is only 1 mile from camp. I'm available to answer any questions you have and look forward to your visit. We ask if the ground is wet you keep your car on the gravel driveway and not drive in the grass (causing ruts). Don't be a turd. Respect the Hideaway. If you plan on partying and/or staying up late around the campfire, don't book this. I have neighbors and respect them. Go do your party booking elsewhere, please. Lastly, if you are bringing dogs, you'll most likely get quite a bit of barking from the dogs to the east. I just want to be honest and warn you. Those east dogs don't like other dogs for some reason.

Celestine Fields

6 sites · Lodging, RVs, Tents20 acres · Carlton, OR

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 we have been given so we do ask you to respect our process in this adjustment, as we miss our grandparents and parents who have worked their entire lives for us to be here. 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 have purchased a 20ft stargazing tent that is in the works of being listed this season! So thank you for your support in this venture and in any form, I’m excited to be apart of your adventure and hope to see you in our neck of the woods soon! ❊ ❁ ❊ - Whitney

More about Trip Camp: Purchased in 2013, building out our property has been a labor of love, and is always a work in progress. We wanted to live somewhere where things move slower and where we can have a more intimate connection with the land. We raise over 30 chickens, garden, and forage the natural abundance of the area, from berries to mushrooms. In our forest, there are deer, coyote, rabbit, bear, skunk, raccoon, squirrels and chipmunks, various owls, bald eagles, weasels, cougar, bobcat, and any other number of critters. The Trip Camp sites sit on the historical Spruce Logging Railway Camps of the early 20th century. During WW1, some conscientious objectors were sent to work camps such as the one here to log the first and second growth spruce trees for the war effort. When they finished the narrow gauge railway system to transport the logs in 1919, the war effort was over and was taken over by private logging concerns.

Old Wagon Road Vineyard

2 sites · RVs, Tents62 acres · Carlton, OR

Chris and Beth met and started dating in Indianapolis in 2009 where both were working on their graduate education. During their first date, Chris announced his goal of developing a vineyard and making wine. As the relationship evolved, Chris worked toward the goal by researching viticulture, attending classes and investigating potential vineyard sites. In summer of 2011, Chris and Beth got married and dove into the wine industry when they purchased a majestic 62 acre property in the foothills of the coastal mountain range in Yamhill County. The property had been an old timber farm that was in bad shape. In 2012, a portion of the property was cleared and planted and the adventure had just begun!The vineyard was planted in 2012, with additional blocks planted each year since. In 2015 they produced our first lots of Pinor Noir and Sauvignon Blanc and have since expanded the wine selection to offer hand-crafted lots of Pinot Noir, Sauvignon Blanc, Gewurztraminer, Riesling, Dolcetto, Lagrein and more.These days, Chris manages the day to day operations of the farm and wine production while Beth manages the business.

The best camping near Devil's Lake State Recreation Area guide

Overview

About

Set on the 685-acre Devil's Lake, Devil's Lake State Recreation Area is the collective name for East Devil's Lake State Park, a day-use area on the south shore, and the Devil's Lake Campground, situated right in Lincoln City, a short walk from the lakeside. Camping options at Devil's Lake Campground include basic tent sites, full hookup sites (most with cable TV), and 10 yurts, plus flush toilets and boat slips. While plenty of campers choose Devil's Lake for its proximity to Lincoln City attractions and the ocean beach, the lake here is also a big draw, particularly for boaters.

Devil’s Lake Campground is just a block inland from the Coast Highway (Highway 101), the main drag in town, and a few blocks from the seaside. There are plenty of restaurants within a five-minute walk, plus a large supermarket within a short drive.
The campground doesn't have its own boat launch, but there are 12 reservable moorage slips. The closest boat ramps are at East Devil's Lake State Park and Regatta Grounds, both of which are three miles from the campground.
The campground is pet-friendly, and dogs are allowed in five of the 10 yurts.
There are two accessible campsites and two accessible yurts for campers with wheelchairs.

Tips for snagging a campsite

Campsites, yurts, RV hookups, and moorage slips are available to book online up to six months in advance using the Oregon State Parks online reservation system. Sites are released every morning at 6am PT.
Sites may open up at the last minute due to cancellations. Cancellation-related same-day and next-day reservations are occasionally available in person or by calling the park directly.

When to go

Devil's Lake is open year-round for camping and day use, although some sites close in winter due to rain and flooding, and may remain shut through June. The Oregon Coast tends to be cold and rainy for much of the year, and the warmer summer months are definitely the best time for camping. Birdwatchers who don’t mind cooler temperatures may enjoy winter visits, when the migratory geese and ducks descend upon the lake's wetland.
