Nice. Who is Bastendorf? He sure has lots of pretty land.Have not stayed at the park. Looks wonderful.Used the nice dump there, for our rig that we camped at Sunset Bay State Park.

We loved the campground and our site was perfect...but we had this dang street light shining directly on our site all night long. Super bright. We tried to contact the office about it but no one answered. Tent site 66.

Great place to come and view the end of the afternoon and sunset. Bring the dogs, so many people with their dogs playing on the sand, running into the low surf. Not crowded, fly a kite, watch the waves and feel the wind.

Our closest and favorite beach! Not crowded and yet well used.

Easy access to beach. Vault toilets available. Close to jetty and marina. Services are available in nearby Charleston. Close to campgrounds. While signs say no overnight parking, van lifers do not appear to be harassed.

Beautiful beach. you go off the path, youll find this magical match of green moss that makes you feel like youre walking on a cloud. Dont fall for it. Itll lead you to an area thats covered in stickers. We were wearing flip flops and now Im afraid of landscapes.

Lovely beach! Dogs had a blast! Restrooms and trash cans to toss doggie waste. Only wish more dog owners felt the responsibility to pick up their own dogs poop! It amazes me that people dont understand HOW TOXIC dog waste is.

Pretty park. Campground sites are narrow with not a lot of room. Campsite pictures are inaccurate and do not depict sites well. Camp hosts are very rude! Accused us of not being registered. Then told us we couldn’t have possibly registered online, even though with current covid restrictions, this is the only way to register for a site. Camp hosts are not dog friendly at all! Got yelled at “you better keep your dog on a leash!” Even though she was on a leash and not another single person was in sight other than camp host 100’ away. To sum up, if it weren’t for camp hosts I would have given 4 stars. I have camped in Oregon my whole life and have never been treated so rudely.

One of the most beautiful places Ive been so far

Beautiful views and plenty of room to walk the beach. You also get a glimpse of cape arago light house.

It was clean and beautiful...even got to watch a seal lion playing in the waves!

Although it can be windy at times, its spacious and gorgeous

Not a bad beach if youre looking for a wide open space to walk or maybe have a family gathering. I prefer beaches with more character (rocks, driftwood or tide pools. )

Great beaches easy accessClean bathrooms. and Beautiful Sunsets.

Decent shoreline and lots of room for the kids to run and play on the sand

Bastendorff is my favorite coastal campground. It has a great overlook to view the ocean. There’s a nice park for kids and horseshoe pits. It has all the amenities and is a close walk to the beach.

Easy to get to the beach front, camping nearby, fairly shallow to Wade in the water. I definitely want to go camping there.

I love to go and watch the ocean and see the Amazing Sunsets️

Come here almost every weekend. My kids like to play in the shallow pools at low tide or in the little creek. Sucks that so many people are inconsiderate and do not pick up their trash.

Great place for a long easy walk on flat stretch of sand and surf.

So much nicer now that there isnt 500 homeless people on it.

The sites are large enough for 2 vehicles plus the RV . Beach access is close. Awesome view from overlook with 2 benches to sit on and watch the waves. Its quiet at night until around 10 pm then you have the creepers come around checking vehicles for valuables so keep your stuff close by your side .

Always a lovely stop. Beautiful fall day.

Camp sites private, small but clean. One of our favorite camp grounds!

We spent an afternoon looking at all the tidal pools and watching the boats and waves. Surprisingly uncrowded. Some people were crazy/brave enough to try a bit of swimming. The beach was clean, soft sand. Very lovely.

Beautiful Beach!! Many dogs were playing together. There were several restrooms nearby. I did not stay at the campground but it seemed nice and camp host were easy to find.

Best sunsets! Thank you for replacing some of the firepits this year, it was well over due and appreciated.

Beautiful sunset here. Got some great photos.

I love Bastendorf Beach. It is an uncluttered beach with beautiful ocean views and gentle waves. You can often find some cool treasures from the ocean along the beach!

Great community campground. The restrooms at the top of the hill were newer and cleaner. Showers were hot and clean. Sites were shady and seemed isolated from the other site. The parking lot offers a beautiful sunset view.

Beautiful huge beach to explore. lots of interesting parts. worth multiple visits

Love this beach... Great times

Waves were rolling....lots of people at the beach.....

This is such a picturesque place an such a wonderful place to be. Weather you just want a nice walk to clear your mind or a fun place to be with the family. Its simply wonderful!

Beautiful place. Trees, ocean, peace and quiet.

Saw a cargo ship and other ship. Children on their bikes at the state park.

I love this park. I grew up staying at this park with family.

A wonderful place to excape and relax. Great for dogs to run and play.

Great beach! Nice place to explore tide pools, catch some surf, fly kites, or walk along the beach.Parking is a little sparse, if it is a busy day.

A great place to just chill and relax

Beautiful date use picnic area...

Beautiful rocks at this neat lil beach

This is are favorite place to go every year with our family. Glad we were able to go this year due to all the unhappiness in 2020

Great camp ground with lots of foliage.

Coolest beach Ive seen in person in Oregon, been to the big beach a number of times. I like to come out here and visit my family & go for drives from one beach to another. Only two (Horse Fall & Shore Aces) charge for parking.Make sure to visit the cave at the south end of Bastendorff.

Great campground. Stayed two nights. Campfires were still allowed, even though it was fire season. Playground for the kids is nice, but a few wooden stairs and a rail at the playground need replaced or removed. Close to beach was nice. Bathrooms flush and have shower. Sidewalk chalk is fun when camping too.

LOVELY beach. Great spelunking for the kids!

Awesome park with an incredible beach. Park is across the street from the beach but its very nice with only a short walk

Beatiful clean Beach.perfect for children to play

Great spot for free camping. Sometimes there may be some vagrants around but that’s free camping for ya. The ships blow their horns all through the night but it’s not too bad. Great spot for day use as well.

Nice beach, it wasnt warm a bit chilly for almost 4th july. Easy to get to. No sea shells if your looking but nice to just enjoy the Ocean.

Great place for pups and people probably really good surfing at high tide

It was really fun to come down for the Fourth of July with family and the beach is beautiful with all the fireworks the o my thing is that we heard fire works all night, we knew that there was gonna be fire works just not all night long other than that though it was really fun

Great beach. Dog friendly

Great campground. Quiet and clean. No full hook-ups, but dump station is free to paying campers. A minute away from the beach. Best to drive as no shoulders on the road. Great view of the bar entrance to Coos Bay. On stormy days foghorn sounds frequently, which I love! Very close to Charleston, South Slough, Cape Arago Lighthouse, Sunset Beach and Shore Acres. Im sure summer is more crowded, but try to reserve the sites near the group camp at the higher level. Fellow RVers we met very nice.

Beautiful beach , plenty of room to walk the beach

Great place to visit nice beach great camp grounds.

The view was beautiful. The beach was rather dirty with debris from campfires. Very cold and breezy on a summer day in August.

Beautiful and peaceful.

Great bare foot time at the oceans edge.

Nice flat beach with fine sand.

Great views amazing place

Nice beach. Not much parking.

Beautiful beach! Nice and clean

Huge jelly fish to be found here. Always a great palace to visit

The campsite is nice (the caretaker was grumpy) The kids loved the playground. You can rent the Gazebo $50 a day. It has electricity. Fabulous view of the ocean. Make sure to watch the sun set. The beach is not too far of a walk. There is usually a stream heading down into the ocean that the kids can play in. I dont recommend kids swimming in the ocean. There is a drop off and an undertow. Perfect for building sands castles.

It is such a beautiful park. Unfortunately my stay was ruined by the only vicious goon of a camp host I have ever seen.. This host is in site 41 . She came up to me when I was enjoying the flora and fauna and accused me of trespassing on private property while I was a registered camper. I then learned she had harassed my 13 year old daughter in similar fashion at another area in the park. My daughter was in tears and was very shook up by the verbal assault. The final straw came on the last day of our stay when this maniac raced over to our car as we watched the sunset and started yelling at us to leave because we were in a day use area. When I asked what time the area closed she sneered, 6:17 I looked at my phone and it was 6:18. I told her that Im going to turn her in and she got really snide and said Greg- or Craig- has her back. I never imagined that a park host could be so bile, mean and rude.

We love the wide open clean beaches of Oregon

Great beach access, no crowds, nice area.

Very beautiful beach, public is locals and extremely nice. Dogs are welcome and you can find room to walk your dogs off leash. Just held event with veterans and disabled for surfing. Very family friendly with kids.

Clean beach and out of the way. Found it by accident! Had a great time!

Tourist love this place as much as the locals. Great state park for family and friends around the worlds to see.

I love this beach so much and its a very enjoyable place to go! I recommend it!

It is always beautiful and easy access. Great place for dogs off leash.

Best beach on the Oregon coast, in my opinion.

Awesome place to watch waves crash. Fishing can be great. Great family location. For a better view, drive up to the coast guard station. Limited parking at the station. Oh theres a hidden cave, that use to be train system. Be careful of tide and waves.

An extremely pleasant RV park with a wide variety of spaces. There is no grey or black water hookup but there are 2 dump station and these work well if you have a porta tote. Lots of shade but locations in the D loop are also sunny. Fire wood is available. We came from Texas to beat the heat and we were very successful with most temps in the 59-60 during the day. The staff was very visible and kept the place in order. Its also a short drive to the beach which is very dog friendly. We will return.

Limited shower times, needs new toilets, latches on stall doors, bad type of showers where you have to push a button once a minute.

This place is beautiful... Climb up into the cave the other side of cave is amazing

Great for kite flying! Windy. Even on a hot day its pretty cool (weather wise). Despite that, we still got burned :-) Great experience. No nearby tide pools.

Beautiful landscape plenty of beach so its not to crowded.

This beach is the best for when you want to walk in the sand and enjoy the waves. I miss when my boyfriend and I used to be able to go out there and have a bonfire and camp overnight. It was so much fun!

We love it here! Beautiful sunsets now that the rain stopped!

Wonderful sunset... A bit cloudy...

Love it here!

Its been our refuge since we arrived in Oregon in May. Beautiful scenery feels like faries decorate at night here. Plus the camp park is so peaceful and well kept. Keep up the great work Sherri!

Reasonably priced campground. There is no direct access to the beach, but its a 5 minute drive or 10 minute walk. The group camp area is nice.

Nice beach access. Several restrooms scattered across the park.

Love walking on the beach here...

We visit this campground once a year for a huge family trip like 30 of us and we love it!!! Great clean camp with the conveniences of town very close by.

Love the beach walks with my boys

Fantastic place to make memories.

Beautiful park but no assistance when we pulled in. Went to the camp office then to camp caretaker there was a note on the door go to the back door. No map of where our spot was located. Someone comes out and tells us directions were to go right here, turn up this street. Just saying there was no Welcome wagon. Your on your on people. Get your on map.

A lot of people with their dogs and fortunately not on leashes and since I have a small dog I dont feel comfortable walking there but its a beautiful area they do have a restroom there during rainy season theres a part of the road that gets very very flooded I choose not to drive through it in my car. Its a nice place to walk although I do like it there are much better places...

A little run down, needed some updates

Oh How I Love The Oregon Coast

Well kept beach and campground with great camping and things for the kids. Close to the town but quiet.

Fun place to spend the day! Bring a jacket, its windy!

Always pretty at this beach, but today was beautiful and there were ships coming through.

Beautiful beach with a nice little rocky point and hidden cove at the southern end.
