Enjoyed my stay top of the line with WiFi and tv . Showers are clean concrete pads to park on. Pics was great. I would come back.

Great location, full hook-ups and cute little place. Pulled in here on our trip up the 101 through Oregon. The check-in place was not onsite it was at a hotel less then a quarter mile away, which was a minor Inconvenience for checking in. Top spots and lower level spots makes for a great location and great views. Short walk to the beach for a good sunset or sunrise. We planned on staying one night and ended up staying two. Showers are a little older and weather, but fully function able for what you need. Didn’t use the laundry area except for putting paint in there for other visitors to use for painting the rocks at the base of the lighthouse. Had a little problem with the«free wi-fi». Not quite the quality I am used to, it worked sometimes and then it just didn’t the rest of the time. Little model lighthouse and the tradition of the painted rocks below is a pretty cool addition to the park. All hook-ups worked perfect and everything was just as needed for a few nights. There are some people who you could tell have been there for awhile but I don’t blame them it is a great spot less then a ½ mile to the beach. Very cute place and the great location would make it a highly recommended place when traveling through or to Golds Beach.

Yep, It’s A-OK. Pros: Clean, simple and cute. Close to the beach. Little lighthouse to visit. Some spots are made for BIG rigs, some for smaller rv’s. Free Wifi. Cons: First come first serve. No assigned spots, even if you made a reservation. Washing machine barely works and dryer just sucks your money and doesn’t dry. Crazy lady lives there full time. What else is there to say? As long as people come keep coming and Ireland’s makes money, I don’t think things will change.

We were only stopping in for a night while traveling up the coast. We loved it so much we stayed three nights. Great access to the very windy Oregon beach. The park was clean and from our site six we could see the ocean. Did not use the shower facilities; can’t comment. The park has been bought by Ireland’s which own many of the adjacent motels and lodges. We found the park well kept and give it good recommendation. Good pull throughs and numerous spacious backins for those under 30 feet. Tables in every site. All sites are sunny but rimmed with low growing coastal pine like shrubs. Nice short walk through the sea grass to the beach. Best attribute of the park is the easy walk to multiple good restaurants. Spinners has a great high-end dinner menu and lounge. The Mangia Buff Italian restaurant is also a good selection too. Two cafes close by one appears to be a local favorite.

This place was fine with us and we would return. It’s all a matter of what you are expecting. It is a super-basic setup with an oval of pads supported by a clean shower/restroom and very good beach access. It has no other real amenities and, in fact, the check-in place is back up on the highway down a couple hundred yards at a motel. That said, it is RIGHT on the beach(just behind some sand dunes) and right on the coast-side of Hwy 101. Because it’s down a very small hill, with buildings between it and 101, we noticed no highway traffic noise at all. We could ride our bicycles around town because this RV Park is right on the southern end of town.

Our experience here is nothing like Helen’s. We just needed a one-night stay in order to get some rest. We pulled in at 8:50p. The front desk of the hotel closes at 9:00p. Needless to say, we circled once to find a spot, parked, and then I ran the ¼ mile to the hotel to check in. As with all other sub-par RV parks, they charged me for my little blessings(kids). Why parks do this is beyond me, the kids stay in the coach, it’s not like we need a separate room for them. At any rate, once I ran back, I hooked up power and water… both were very easy. I hooked up cable, but I got better reception from my antenna than what was coming in on the cable. Lastly, it took me several minutes to locate the dump. It was not near the power and water stand, as it is in most parks. It was 22 feet away from the power stand. While I am thinking about it, if you have a slide out, you will hit the power stand(not from personal experience, but our stand was leaning back). Our spot(18) was very near the restrooms. They left alot to be desired. We used their toilets, but not their showers, they were disgusting looking. We used our own shower in the coach. We also used their laundry facility. There were 2 washers and 1 dryer. WTH??? The washer(20 yrs old+) actually cleaned all the clothes and rather quickly, but it needed to dryer cycles to dry the clothes. We went up in their little lighthouse, which was a cool factor for the kids, and we hit the beach the following morning, but after that, we were gone. Will we be back? No. Would I recommend this park to anyone? Only if you have business in Gold Beach. If you’re an over-nighter go find an industrial park or RV repair center in town and park there. JMO.

We did not have quite as bad a time as Helen. However the laundry room is obviously not cared for. They are down to ONE washer which was probably here 20 years ago when we first began coming to this park. This use to be one of our favorite parks but since its purchase by the Gold Beach Motel it’s been treated like the ugly step child with little maintenance or oversight. Evidence of the«step-child», rotten boards on the tables have been replaced but severely weathered board have not, old, barely usable electrical hookups with most only 30 amp, minimal landscape maintenance, sites are small and cable TV has a weak signal due to poor wiring/connections, This is not a cheap park to camp so apparently RV park revenue is used to subsidize other operations. Having said all this, if you are looking for a semi-protected parking area near the ocean with only a short walk to the beach, then this is your park. We were at the top of the hill in space 4 so no sewage or vicious dogs for us.

Vicious dogs running around with no leashes, and a long walk to the office make this place less than satisfactory. The raw sewage leaching into the soil near site 11 made it a nightmare. We are currently hiding in our camper to escape the sickening stench that blew in through the vents. It’s disgusting. The showers are all part of the nightmare, with strings of long hair draped on the soggy walls and tiny transluscent curtains to hide yourself from fellow bathroom-users. In short, mean dogs will run around and chase you through stench-clouds of raw human sewage until you take to the 101 and flee, still unwashed.
