One of the better beaches in Coos bay/Charleston. Huge stretch of beach for dogs to run and have fun, without being distracted from people being to close. Fun for kids and family activities as well. Only issue is they dont have any restrooms on site.

For being such a large park, the sites were laid out so you didn't feel like you were on top of each other. The walk to the beach was very nice, a little longer than we expected for us old folks.

Beautiful beach but you have to go during a week day or get there really early if it's nice out. This is where a lot of the tourists go because it's the biggest beach on the Coos County coast, so locals usually avoid it. I have some of my best memories in these sands. If you're kids need a fun, safe beach to run around and get all their energy out, this is the place. If you find the wind too much to deal with, theirs also a park uphill from the beach with a play ground. It's surrounded by trees so the wind is cut down drastically but still can be pretty powerful. If you manage to go here at night and find a bonfire, it's most likely locals. You'll find out within 15 feet if they are friendly or not. Most of the time they are friendly, the ocean has a way of drawing good people to it, like a magnet.

Matthew Hatfield | Apr 15, 2019

Check the web site. They do have sites with power and water. When we where there they where quite full so make sure to book in advance. We booked months in advance, not saying that's what you have to do. We had a big part 18 people. To get sites together that's what we did. Enjoy your stay there, it's really nice. Clean facilities and literally just a hundred yards or so away from the beach
