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.
