    I love this park for camping. The tent sites are large and secluded. There are nice paved trails that lead from the campground to sandy beaches and the jetty. Showers are hot and free! the location is great - close to Newport, the aquarium, and a 24 hr grocery store (Thriftway). I will definitely come back!

    I used to go here with my family as a kid, and just revisited. They've expanded a lot, now offering more yurts and pet friendly yurts than ever. The staff are friendly and helpful, and the sites are spacious as ever. Well maintained and fairly reasonably priced. I love this place.
