With half the camp loops still closed, we still had no problem finding a site - D103. Had the weather been a little better, it would have been a pleasant sunny site.

Date of visit: May 2008

Sites 70-73 in the I loop. As you can see, we experienced typical Oregon weather during our visit.

Sites 2, 3, 5, 6.

Sites 29, 27, and 24 on the left; 25 at end of road.

Sites 77 and 78.

Site 74.

Sites 115 and 113.

Each of the 11 camp loops has a bathhouse in its center. 8 of them offer free hot showers. The only problem is the vent in the bottom of each door that lets the often strong winds blow in.

There is a small playground near the center of the campground.

About 2 miles from the campground is the old Fort Stevens Military Reservation. Fort Stevens was constructed during the Civil War and remained active until shortly after World War II.

Fort Stevens marked the end of our trip up the Pacific coast. Our goal was the Columbia River....and here is our first view of it.
