Given its many attractions and amenities, Nehalem Bay State Park is one of Oregon’s most well-rounded parks and is a perfect destination for the entire family. So unsurprisingly, it can also be one of the busiest destinations on the coast in the summer months. Be sure to check out our map and make your reservations early to get a campsite for your weekend getaway! The campground has 265 standard campsites, each equipped with RV hook-ups (electrical and water), plus 18 yurts ($36 per night), 17 large campsites furnished with horse stalls ($19 per night) and a hiker or biker camping area ($5 per night). To see what the entire park has to offer for you and your family, view our coverage of Nehalem Bay State Park.

Note that the prices quoted are for summer rates (May 1 through September 30), and that rates decrease slightly during the winter months.
