The best KOA we have been in in 15 years of travel. There are dozens of cottages, hundreds of ten sites, deluxe sites with trees, 80 to 90 85 foot pull throughs in an open fields. Super Wi-Fi, good DirecTV reception. Free pancake breakfast on weekends in the summer season will many other food choices for cheap prices. Great staff, clean, dogs and people well controlled. Excellent laundry, playgrounds, game fields, an internet cafe. Every site is flat. Most excellent in every respect but pricey. We will come back again. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Many different types of camping sites available here. Front desk people were nice to us. We were here in August and it was very full. We had a pull through and the sites are pretty close together with many trees around. Roads are tight and alot of traffic most of the time. There were fire pits at the sights in our area. The free pancakes for breakfast were great. WiFi wasn't working good at all. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Large park very well laid out. Price is way to high for what you get. Stayed one night then went somewhere else. At this price you would think you would have no dust, cable TV and clean sites. The area was very dusty with the traffic going by, the Cable TV did not work, and the site was very dirty. Campfire ring full of garbage and broken glass all over the site. One of the worst KOA's I have stayed in. We camped here in a Motorhome.

This is a very large park with relatively unimproved 'sites' which felt more like 'overflow' sites. We were happy to have a place to stay for one night on short notice, but you need a reservation to get one of the nicer sites. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

Took 25 minutes to check in, and not just because it was busy. There where 3 employees at registration when I got into line, and I was the 5th person. Then 2 of them left, leaving only one person to check everyone in. There was eleven people behind me by time I finally got done. Set up reservations 10 days in advance and still could only get 2 nights. The premium sites are nice, but expensive. The "cheap seats" are like a parking lot. And of course the wireless didn't work, not to mention my $56.00 site had a mercury light in it which gave it all the class of a Walmart lot. The cable only has something like 9 channels and the trees that provide nice shade, prohibit the use of satellite. As in the last post, the fire pit was full of cigarette butts. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Ended up at this huge KOA because the adjacent Ft Stevens State Park was full. Our site was in row F which is the least developed part of the property (ours was, at $52 a night, one of the least expensive W/E only sites available). Sites were very close together and not particularly well maintained; tall weeds in lawn, someone's 6 month cigarette butt collection in the fire ring, picnic table extremely weathered. Definitely not worth the money. Tried hard to get into the state park -- we drove through and it was much prettier and better maintained. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

A nice, clean, good sized park. There is a large indoor pool, but it's only 4' deep and is rather noisy when there are lots of people. They do have adult only hours, but they are late in the evening. We stayed in one of the "regular" sites, down the hill a bit from the "deluxe" sites, and had plenty of room. Most of these sites do not have cable hookup, but since we have a satellite dish, it didn't matter. One of the nicer KOA's we have stayed at. The WIFI worked very well. This is a super park for children and families. We camped here in a Motorhome.

We really had a better stay than last time when we had to stay in the back row in a p/u..We were supposed to have a premium site, but we were too long for them and got the next level site and actually had a better one for less money..The staff is extremely helpful and they tour the cg at all hours, but aren't obnoxious..The food is good and they also had a great concert on the Monday we were there.BD. All in all this KOA is a cut above them all and we will stay here again..I would have rated this a 10, but I am still trying to find a perfect one.. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

This is a nice park but we felt it was over priced. We have taken our grandchildren there twice. It is a nice park for children because of the swimming pool, game room and climbing structure. It is not a place my husband and I would choose without our grandchildren along on the trip! We camped here in a Motorhome.

Very nice campground. We were only stopping for overnight, but decided to stay for a second night because we liked it so much. We took a deluxe site. Pretty large, good sized grassy area surrounded by shrubs/trees. Not completely private, but better than we'd had recently while traveling through other states. WiFi good. Cable TV good. Friendly staff. Very quiet at night (we were there Sunday and Monday nights but there were still a decent amount of campers there). Deluxe sites are close to the playground, pool, office, and game room. Would have given this campground a 10 but the pool filter didn't seem to be working well. Pool water was cloudy and even though the filter was running, there didn't seem to be enough pressure to get it clean. Other than the pool, we have no complaints. Gorgeous indoor setting for the pool and hot tub. Too bad it wasn't clean enough. We would have enjoyed swimming indoors because it was cool during our visit. We would camp here again. We camped here in a Motorhome.

We were here in February last year and had a great time. We still had a great time this year, but downgraded the rating for a couple reasons. First, the pool has been made available to the public, so even on a day when the campground isn't busy, the pool may be (it was for us). This was VERY disappointing as Astoria has a public pool already. If we wanted busy we'd go there. Second, there were some other campers up partying late at night, and nothing was done to quiet them down. The bathrooms, while still clean, weren't as sparkley clean as last year. I see this KOA didn't get the president's award this past year, and these couple of details may have made the difference. Despite these couple of things, the WiFi worked great, and it's a great location. I don't think we'll be back next year as we didn't LOVE it like we did last time. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

Awesome Store, Great Staff, Large sites - Nice Park. Pool crowded, faraway and shallow. Kids found most games in game room were broken. WiFi is available only in area close to Kitchen. We would likely stay here again. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

A very nice layout. Park is very pretty with trees and many amenities such as cooking structures. I would say that families would like this park more than we - a couple with 2 dogs. Sites were tight but fortunately, the park was not busy. Mosquitos were terrible, but not their fault. Front desk staff very friendly but the guy in the golf cart doing the maintenance was into "hot dogging". Once he skidded to a stop (going too fast) and a second time he took a corner too fast and the garbage fell out of the back - yuck. The pool and spa building were impressive. Bottom line - great for families. Pricey if you don't use the amenities. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

Wow. This is a great park in the off-season! I can see where it would be crowded and a bit much in the busy times, but it's phenomenal now. The good: Friendly staff, clean and neat grounds, free internet, very clean bathrooms/showers, great indoor pool/spa (also clean), well stocked store, and lots to do at the campground and in the area (bring your bikes!). The "other": The spaces are narrow, and depending on the landscaping, can hinder the awning and/or slides, so park carefully to allow for slides. The deluxe sites are paved, and the others are gravel. But the gravel sites seem pretty level. Overall, this is a great campground with lots to do. Definitely family friendly! We may make this one an annual stop (in the offseason). We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

Great family campground. Excellent bathrooms and laundry. A little expensive for us and the wifi didn't work while we were there. We prefer Fort Stevens State Park, which is across the street. We camped here in a Tent Trailer.

A nice, clean, good sized park. Large indoor pool, but only 4' deep. Since it is inside, it gets noisy when lots of people. Have adult only hours. "Deluxe" sites are paved and closer to pool, store and showers. They are nicely landscaped, which doesn't leave much room for awnings, large gatherings in one site or long rigs (+45'). Regular sites, down the hill a bit from the deluxe sites, are more open, wider, longer and lots of grass. But most of these do not have cable hookup. From all the sites, it is a walk up a slight hill (not steep) to the main building. Nice private showers, but vent fans could do a better job. One of the nicer KOA's I've stayed at. We camped here in a camper.

Very pretty, wooded park. We had one of the few pull-thru sites but it was not great for privacy because of this. Park was very crowded and we found it to be excessively noisy. Did not allow us to stay outside much. We ended up leaving most of the days and seeing the Fort nearby, canoed on the lake and went into Astoria for dinner as well. Great location with lots to do but not a great place to go if you are looking to enjoy some quiet outdoors. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

Oregon State Parks are the Best. This park lies pretty close to the mouth of the Columbia River. It has great campsites, and close to Astoria, if you need a town to visit. What a bargain; I'll be back. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Many sites are small and will not accommodate larger rigs. Do not expect to get satellite reception, even with a portable dish. After several hours of searching for a signal with my portable dish, the park ranger came by and moved it because my cable went across a path next to our site (even though I secured the cable to prevent anyone from tripping). And, TV reception with the bat wing antennae was terrible. It is a nice park within walking distance to the beach, just be sure to consider the downsides if you want to watch TV during your stay. We camped here in a Motorhome.

This was a wonderful campground. We found that it had everything we needed to make our stay comfortable. We had a site with water, power and sewer. It was very quiet and the sites are very nicely sized! Everyone is very friendly and there was excellent access to the beach and some great walking paths. The bathrooms were clean and well maintained. The only drag for us was the spotty Cell phone coverage, but you know, that can be a blessing too. :-) If you want a place to relax, this is the place. If you want to have a place where you can keep a constant eye on the kids, the KOA might be a better place. If you want them to go explore, this is the place to be. If you want a place free of dirt, you won't even find that at the KOA so you may need to go to some place in Astoria, but if you don't mind a little dirt (sandy in texture) this is the place for you. We will definitely be back here again, next time for longer than 3 days! We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

Very large park. You need a couple of days to fully explore just the park. We also went into historic Astoria, excellent maritime museum. Park is well treed as mentioned. Keeps things cool, some would say cold. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Wonderful camp area with old growth trees, asphalt walking/biking trails, very clean bath/showers and tons of things to see. Our site was nestled in the trees and shrubs, couldn't put out the canopy, but we didn't need to! The shade is so dense that it is several degrees cooler here than in the sun. Campground was pretty full, but it was very peaceful and quiet. A host comes around everyday with firewood to purchase, how convenient! The only draw back to the sites is that they slope toward the front, making leveling a bit more difficult. But the view out the windows gives you the feel of being deep in the forest - just breathtaking. The beach is a bit of a walk down a paved path and the reward is a super nice beach with the shipwreck of the Peter Iredale on the shore. There is a lighthouse up the way and a lovely lake. Bikes are very popular around here and everything is very well maintained. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Some would rate this campground a 10, and others much like I have. We got the last site at noon on a Thursday, and could only book for one night. That was no problem. There is no clear sky for DirecTV, poor Sprint phone service and our site was much like most state parks and tipping in one or another direction. Not all sites this park are like that however. It was very quiet with no barking dogs as in many parks. We are in a 38 foot motorhome. As travelers and not campers - we would not come back here or stop at any Oregon State Campgrounds. We camped here in a Motorhome.

One of our favorite state parks to camp in both Oregon and Washington States. Great access to the beach and miles of bike/walking trails. Lots of attractions at Fort Stevens and it's military museum. Short drive to Astoria, Seaside, and Cannon beach. Large grocery/retail stores within a 10 minute drive. Camp sites can be muddy when it rains. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

This park is huge! I thought that the campsites were a bit too close together and the beach is far away. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

Our last trip to Fort Stevens was in the mid 1980s. On this trip we were in the old part of the park, and not much has changed over 20 years. The new entrance center office and parking lot is very nice. The staff was very friendly and efficient in checking us in and changing one of our reserved campsites to get our group closer together. Our sites had water and electricity only, which was fine given that there are sink water disposal basins spread throughout the loop. Carrying a few buckets of gray water when necessary is fine with us as long as the distance is short. The centralized garbage and recycling was new to us, as there used to be garbage cans spread around the loops. The restroom in our loop didn't have showers, and it was about as clean as possible given its age, traffic level and reduced park staffing. We have always considered the Oregon state parks to be some of the best, and this visit to Fort Stevens supported that opinion. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

This is one of the best campgrounds I've ever been in. The roads and the spaces are paved. There's over 15 miles of hiking/biking trails. Reservations are a must on weekends but during the week should not be a problem. I would have given them a 10 rating if they had WiFi/Cable but you really don't need it, you're going to be busy enjoying yourself. We camped here in a Motorhome.

We enjoy this park for all the trails to walk the dogs or ride the bikes. If you don't want to be around tons of kids this is not the park for you. It's a huge place with great wildlife. We stayed a week and still didn't have enough time to see everything. All the sits have lots of bushes and trees around. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Very nice park in the Astoria area. The only place to stay in this area of the coast. Very clean for a state park, with check in staff very helpful and courteous We would definitely stay here again, the M loop seems to be one of the best. We camped here in a Motorhome.

One of the best State parks we have stayed in! Pull thrus will accomodate big rigs (we have a 37 foot 5'er and my brother a 40 foot Class A). Plenty of grass for pets. Lots of things to do and see in the area. No cable TV or WiFi is why this park doesn't get a 10. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

Very nice check in, and great interior roads. They even have Yurts. Some shower buildings are new some are older, so it is hit or miss. They were clean, and the showers are free, and in our building very hot. Renovations are going on, but some sites will be tight for a large rig. All sites I saw are under trees so expect droppings and messy sites with leaves and flowers/seeds but still a nice park We camped here in a Motorhome.

This is not really a campground for a Big Rig. Yes, you can get around, and yes, you can get into a site; however, the paved area is the same width as your rig and the rest, when it rains, is mud. Not a good situation for keeping your "home" clean. The delightful part is being able to enjoy a campfire and quiet time with your spouse. There are also interesting things in the area to see. We would not do it again. We camped here in a Motorhome.

This was a really nice state park! Sites were big enough for slide-outs and fairly private from neighboring sites. Easy access. The beach is a mile or so away so we drove. Many rode bikes. We were in site L51. Ample trails to walk. Lots of kids! We would return to this park. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

Great park, lots of paved trails to ride bikes. Bring lots of bug spray and recommend several mosquito repelling candles or products. Fred Meyer and Costco are close but were sold out of bug stuff. We loved the camp ground and neighbors were friendly and respected boundaries. Quiet at night. We camped in Loop N. From what we heard N and O are the most "buggy". We'll stay away from these loops in the future. Rained most of the time. West side of loop timbered and dark. We camped here in a Truck Camper.

It just doesn't get much better than this. Fort Stevens is a must see if going to Oregon. There are great bike trails, an enormous beach with easy access by bike or car, and the sites are laid out with plenty of privacy. Astoria is a short drive away. Our family of 5 loved it. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

We camped here for 2 nights and enjoyed it very much - except for the mosquitos! Tons of them all day and night long! We camped here in a Motorhome.

Part of the world class Oregon State Parks, Fort Stevens is probably as good as it gets for combining recreation and camping. There are miles of bike trails, miles of ocean access, acres of nature, a lake, fishing, ancient archeological sites. Amazing. Even though this park is as big as it gets in Oregon, you will still be camping. Don't expect to find paved everything, and do expect to find trees that will probably block that satellite TV, though regular TV works in most if not all of the park. The new showers/restrooms are wonderful, but the old cinderblock jobs are always cleaned many times a day. Camp hosts clean every site when you leave, so the sites are always tidy. And there is a host in every loop, so things never get too out of hand. Those who make a racket can expect a Ranger visit during quiet times. We had a group of teens who got the boot during our stay. No fooling around here! The mosquitos are in fact merciless - but some good spray will deal them a blow. Choose sites that have wind and sun, like we do, and they go away. Fort Stevens is a social event, so if you don't like people, you may not like it here. Expect kids, dogs, cool retro RV's (they are all the rage in Portland) Expect to meet some folks, and get your RV checked out by bikers, walkers, and the occasional squirrel. Bring your bike! If you don't have one, you are missing out on a big part of what this Park has to offer. The KOA up the road rents them - but we haven't tried them. Ride the trolley: There is is trolley in nearby Astoria that is an absolute hoot to ride. Your kid or kid inside will LOVE it. Park at one of several public lots along this waterfront line and ride the whole route. Tons of fun. I suggest parking at the Maritime Museum. Take that in, then go for a ride. Eat lunch at any of the trolley stops. Safeway has good sandwiches for about $4.99 as a suggestion. (We like them.) Children can be a challenge to contain. There are so many kids in the park that yours will want to check out the neighbors, and play play play. This park has bigger loops, and a wide center spline, thus some drivers go too fast. Keep an eye on your little ones as they enjoy their playing - and seniors should be more aware of this hazard. We can go three days with our set-up, so we seldom do a full hook site, as they are harder to get into, and are more "well loved". With electric and water sites there is much less wear. Of note - don't believe the prices quoted on some of the reviews here - there are only two for RV camping: $18 off peak and $22 during peak. Check the OPRD website for details. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

Very nice park but when we were there; there were kids everywhere. Each RV section has a host and they are very nice. The only negative comment I'd make are the bugs, but then again there isn't much you can do about that. Check in was easy and it was nice to see a host driving around with firewood for sale. My wife and I love camping here and have done it many times. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

Huge, well-run SP. The facilities were fine and the trails maintained. Though the kids could be noisy on occasion, the park is big enough to get away from everything if you wish. Price-wise, it's a bargain and a good base to sightsee the surrounding area. We camped here in a Motorhome.

This state park was okay, but not the best. We ended up spending most of our time outside the park. There's a great maritime museum in Astoria with the best fish & chips stand right across the street. But the park itself wasn't as well maintained as I expected for an award winning park. The bathrooms were a bit rank and the sites were a bit too forested. Perhaps when it's not raining and it's warmer, it's a more enjoyable place. But I won't be going back. I'll find another spot to camp when in the area again. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

This park is by far the nicest and largest of the Oregon State Parks we visited. It is gorgeous. Nice bike and walking trails go throughout the park. We had a very level, large, private pull thru site. Although this park was large, it was very quiet. Bring mosquito spray and a lot of it if you plan to stay here. The activities near by are perfect distance too. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

We had site #231, a paved back-in with some slope just big enough for our 30 ft class A; 50 amp electric and water. Our loop was jam packed every single night (we arrived on a Wed) so it was crowded and noisy. Other loops were not nearly as crowded the weekend we stayed but when we made our reservations there were only a couple of loops available so they ended up being very cramped with absolutely no privacy whatever. The Lewis and Clark NP sites are easy to visit from this park. The dump station was easy to access and well set-up with three dump ports but very busy. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Kids kids everywhere! Kids and parents did not respect boundary of campsites. They rode their bikes, and walked to the restrooms and showers unapologetically, all over our site. Oregon has some great state parks -- this was definitely one of the most beautiful. But if you are in a high-line motorhome and want your space -- this is not for you. Ours is a $.5million rig and there were lots of gawkers who walked right up to the rig -- even some kids camped out right outside watching our movies through the windows, and many kids riding their bikes too close onto our site for comfort -- reminded us of a cheap KOA. Reminds us of why we usually choose private RV parks and resorts! Moved after one day. WOULD DEFINITELY NOT RETURN. We camped here in a Motorhome.

This is a very nice State Park with a store and laundry facilities. Fairly roomy sites although we didn't have any privacy like you can have in some campgrounds. There was no road noise which was nice. The sites in the N loop were back-ins with only tall trees between sites. Lots of things to see in the area and a good area to shop if you need to stock up. There's a Costco in Warrenton with great gas prices, Fred Meyers is just down the street with good prices too. I would have given this a 10 if there had been some sort of barrier between sites. We would come back here again. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Stupendous! We camped here in a Motorhome.

One of the best state parks on the west coast. Great for cycling. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

We LOVED this campground. Bring your bikes! We wish we had! We camped here in a Tent Trailer.

This is a great park for anyone - families, small groups, fishing buddies, and so on. Sites are numerous, divided from the rest by shrubs and brush in most cases. Miles of bike paths, lots of Ranger activities for the kids as well adults. Easy walk or bike ride to the beach. Historical site of Ft. Stevens is nearby. Great fun and lots to do. We camped here in a Motorhome.

We have camped here 5 years in a row. Each time there was a problem with campers around us. We experienced loud parties late into the night, people drinking and then throwing up in the bushes, large dogs running loose and attacking other dogs, fights, racing motors and scary behavior. The rangers (and their aides) do not monitor camper behavior. They leave it to the Oregon State Troopers. The troopers do come when called but their response is not timely. We gave up trying to stay here and now stay across the street at a private campground. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Great state park. Good sized sites. Park is well maintained. Restrooms and shower rooms were clean. Have stayed here a couple times. Will stay again. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

Very friendly staff/volunteers being this was our first trip we needed help. Volunteers were more than happy to help. Camp grounds are clean and well maintained. Wife and I stayed here with friends for three days (April 2004). Take plenty of bug spray, lots of mosquitoes. Only negative comments: Dump station was DIRTY, garbage cans are not located nearby, you have to drive down to them. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

This is Oregon's flagship state park and it is huge. Sites are a nice size with lots of trees and bushes. There are an incredible array of activities to fill your days- fishing, biking, beachcombing, fort tours, Lewis and Clarke fort exhibit, lake swimming, and much more. Also towns of Cannon Beach, Astoria, and Seaside all close and worth a visit. Obviously, this is a VERY popular campground so don't even try on summer weekend without reservations. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

This is a great place on the Oregon coast. It is packed in the summer so reservations are a must or you may not get in. Tons of trees. Hiking and biking trails. Lakes nearby. We camped here in a camper.
