No Privacy, sites too close to the drive and way too close together. Too close to highway although it wasn't busy. Some campers need to monitor their children's behavior better and one family stayed up until 0300 with music on and talking on the way to the bathroom. Caretaker was not far away but in a hardside, so probably didn't hear. It is a small campground with no real trails so disappointing in that regard--had to go elsewhere for much of a walk.Plusses--at some sites you can hear the river gurgling, bathrooms were clean, caretaker pleasant. I don't plan to return to this campground as it doesn't work for me.

Campground is very open, so most sights aren't very private. The large trash cans near the day use area smelled so bad that we had to hope the wind wasn't blowing towards our site. The Campground was well maintained otherwise, but there is very little beach areas on the river along the Campground. You can see that some sights used to have walkways down to the water, but they must have stopped keeping those trimmed back at some point. It would be nice if they put some time in to increasing the amount of river access here. Overall, we had a good stay. We met some nice people, caught a lot of crawdad, and enjoyed the river.

Such a nice quiet place close to the beach but away from the bustle and the wind. The person that was in the spot before us broke down and they moved us with no problem and no fuss. Will definitely go back again

It is a beautiful site by the Alsea River. The fall foliage was delicious. The site felt less than rustic because residential areas encircle it. The houses were not noisy, but neighboring campers' generators were during the supper hour. (I did not see any posted rules about this, but there should be some. ) The Rec.gov site seemed to indicate that we'd need to reserve, but I guess we wasted the $8 fee because the campground was mostly empty. The people we met here (during this Covid period) were nice, but not wearing masks.
We camped in late October and it was so cold in our VW that we struggled to sleep one night, but the days before and after, spent at the beach just 17 miles to the west were wonderfully sunny and warm. I wonder what makes that pocket of cool there in the woods by the river? There was cold air coming from the North, but I would have thought the forests and coastal range offered some protection from that. Blackberry is probably a great summer escape for that reason.
