Harris Beach State Park Campground

Amazing campground! Price was very reasonable, our site was easy to locate, back into, and get setup on with a sign showing it was reserved. It had sufficient room for relaxing with bushes to allow for some seclusion/privacy. Reserving online was easy with pictures and details for each site available. The grounds were very well kept and maintained, it was quiet, and the views nearby were fantastic! Easy to get to town right off the main road and plenty to see/do nearby. We absolutely would return again and I would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a good sized, quiet, affordable, and family friendly campground to stay/vacation at! Thanks for a wonderful stay! I loved the views and even having some wildlife walk right along our site to really make for a good start to the morning. There was some nearby heavy equipment possibly down the hill from the main camping grounds that I could hear in the evening for a bit with reverse beepers sounding, however it didn’t last all night and I suspect it would not be a regular/daily/long term occurrence.

Review by a tent camper. Despite the rainy forecast, this campground was hopping with campers, including other tenters like me. The tent site rate was budget friendly @ $24 per night when I was there. I'm glad a previous reviewer recommended specific tent sites, B20 being the highest on his list and which I was able to reserve. Restrooms clean, dry, with working hot water, and an electric outlet that has juice. Hot showers with good pressure included in the campsite fee. Good cell coverage. A walking path will take you to Brookings about a mile or so away. You can walk to various points on the beach via additional walkways, some of which include steep inclines or careful clambers over driftwood and loose pea gravel. Tent sites B16 and B18 are untenable in my opinion, as the available footprint for a tent in either of these sites is miniscule. Other B loop tent sites might be OK when there's no rain, but otherwise, finding a level spot that doesn't collect water in this loop is a challenge. B9 OK. An adjacent lumber operation produces considerable noise every night (all night), except possibly weekends. On a return stay, I'd go for the C loop, specifically tent sites C6 (best), C7, and C9 for their size, level ground, and better water drainage.

Very loud and crowded campground. It’s obviously in a very popular area along the coast but so loud with the nearby mill and trucks beeping and dumping all night long. I much preferred Cape Blanco - 50 miles up the 101.

This was our first time camping at Harris Beach State Park. It was our fault for not realizing that the spot we picked was closest to the 101 hwy. It was so loud you could not carry on a conversation next to you sometimes. There was also a hill so the roaring of trucks was loud, it bothered our son who was sleeping in a tent. All the spots in our area were dirt and rocks. As you got down to the quieter spots and ones that had a view of the ocean they were quiet, grassy view sites. A great beach area that we drove down to, very steep up and down but great beach access and nice rinse off area and regular bathrooms with flush toilets. Our favorite thing was a nice hike up to a view point overlooking the whole coastline as far as the eye could see. There was a nice walking bike path that took you into town, a little bit of it was along 101 but a wide area.

Wonderful state park for safe camping. Very close to the beach and awesome dappled sun amidst the large pine trees. Dog friendly beach and camping at the park. Highway noise is evident at night, so if loud 18 wheeler brakes trigger you, beware… quite startling on occasion. We were in C06 tent site, nice location by restrooms/showers, water and sink washing and the trail to the beach.
