Andersen's Oceanside RV Park & Cottages

We stayed in the forested sites close to the front. It was a a little bit more of a walk to the beach, but not unbearable. The hosts of the campground greeted us upon arrival. She was friendly and pointed out where we would be staying. The other host came to get us backed up into the site. Was the quickest we have ever been able to get set up. Site was level and we had plenty of room. I will say that if you do choose to be closer to the the beach you will be right on top of your neighbors. Andersen’s is close to the town about 7min away. We would definitely stay here again.

Nice place with a lot of rules. Mostly understandable. Spaces are close together, but since we have three large dogs I asked if we could be as rural as possible. I was told if the dogs barked we would have to leave. There very quiet unless someone knocks or is standing directly in front.
No facility’s so you have to be completely self contained. Well kept

I had planned on staying here for a long weekend in November to do some razor clamming. Less than a week prior to the trip I found out that razor clamming would remain closed due to toxins and that there was a storm moving in with 60+ mile per hour winds and potential coastal flooding. I was aware that they had a zero refund policy for the entire reservation (not the single day charge that most places have), so I wanted to just switch my reservation to another week when the weather wasn't quite so extreme. I tried contacting them through their phone number several times and no one picked up, nor responded to my messages. I also emailed them (which was the suggestion on the phone message and the confirmation email), and also got no response.

I was prepared to reschedule rather than losing my reservation fee, but it seems that their business model is to ignore customers and keep their entire reservation. I have nothing to say about the quality of the park, since I never got to stay there, but I would not recommend entirely on their lack of customer service and excessive cancellation policy.

Most of what others have said is true.

In driving around Long Beach and looking at the competition it appears this setup is pretty typical. You are pretty close (an awning width distance). I have been fortunate in either not having a neighbor on both sides or they do not have slide-outs. Around the country I have had worse and paid more for it. For me, I don't mind the separation between the sites.

I do see a lot of people with their own propane fire pits, so maybe policy changed since the prior reviews said it was not allowed.

It is great to be just north of the busy downtown. Beach access for a vehicle is less than 5 min in either direction. Of course you can always simply walk to the beach from the rv park on their private trail (as other mention).

The rate seems the average for Long Beach. I did see a few places for less, but either they are full or you don't find as many positive reviews. It has been very quiet during my stay. The staff have been very kind and efficient. I would choose to stay here again when staying in Long Beach. I appreciate the online reservation system. Verizon and tmobile have been great. I do not need to use my external antennas and still get 50+ download speed on my Verizon jetpack.

Close quarters but it didn’t bother us as other campers were quiet. You are right off the beach with lovely views of the dunes out the back and people/dog watching out the front. This area is truly dog heaven, dogs can be off leash on the beach, also you can build yourself a nice bonfire on the beach. Showers were clean, hot water plentiful. Small laundry room helped dry towels etc. this is our second stay and I hope to go back to the 28 mile beach, and Anderson’s, again soon!

Tight spots, over priced, nothing separating you from your neighbor who is way too close. Manager would not let us use our propane fire pit. No fires, unless you “rent” their fire rings and buy their firewood. Manager was not a nice a guy about it either. Bathrooms were a disaster, WiFi which you pay for, was non-existent...and the list goes on. There are many better places on the coast.

We stayed at Andersen’s RV Park in our class A motorhome. Although it's a simple, typical gravel parking lot-style park with only a small laundry room and bathrooms, the stay was wonderful. The sites are very level and the gravel is nicely compacted. They’re just north of Long Beach (WA) in the grassy dunes above the beach and the drive to town is maybe 3-5 minutes. The owners were very welcoming. The park was completely full at times, and the sites are close together; but we never felt cramped or encroached upon. Their Internet was slow much of the time, but we have our own (Verizon) and were okay. Most of the other RV parks in the area are well off the beach, but it was just a short walk for us from our RV site. There's no view of the beach, but it's just right there over the dunes. Our fellow RVers would gather their chairs and drinks and head out each night to watch the sunset. The vibe there was great and we seriously contemplated extending our stay for another week.
