We are going to spend a month in Oregon next year. Since it's so hot in Fresno in July we though we would visit the Oregon coast to cool off a bit.
Based upon reviews that I've read, we already have made reservations at the Midway RV Park in Coos Bay for two weeks. We want to spend another two weeks in the Newport area.
We are looking at the Habor Village RV Park in Newport. We like the location as we can bicycle into the village from the RV park. Does anyone have any information about this park, or other locations?

Have you checked the web site www.rvparkreviews.com You might find an RV park from the list and people also give their opinions on the parks.

Beverly Beach is a great place to camp when you are in the area of Newport. The beach is within walking distance and you actually walk under the highway (101) to get to the beach. Another place is Depoe Bay - not very far from Newport We also stayed at Cape Lookout and at Fort Stevens - -- both great places----you will absolutely love Oregon Coast -- its the greatest!!!!!!

Seconding Jenny's comments. Oregon has one of the best state park systems I have seen.
There are a couple in the gorge between The Dalles and Hood River we especially like. The coastal parks are great. Check ahead though and make sure they can accomodate your rig. Most of the parks are water and electric only. Some have even less. The scenery makes up for it
Up the road from Pacific City is a county park, that is literally an island. Beach/river front sites that embody all we love about Oregon.
Our favorite 1000 Trails is just south of Newport and has a tunnel to the beach. Of course they aren't like Florida beaches. Went wade fishing once, with out waders, and found the 55 degree Pacific hazardous to my health.

Actually, if you plan on staying at an Oregon State Park, they take reservations up to 9 months in advance. And, if you expect to stay in an Oregon SP during the summer on any weekend, you better be making reservations RIGHT NOW.
We camp host at Champoeg and believe me, the parks are full all summer weekends.
You have to use Reservations Northwest to reserve, but the parks are the absolute best.
