This was our second time staying here and is one of our favorite OR State parks. Typically well maintained park by OR State. Almost all sites are in excess of 30 feet long and are well spaced apart. With this spacing and the foliage between sites the privacy is outstanding. The trail leading to the lighthouse is amazingly beautiful and there are miles of beach to explore. The ONLY downside is the permanent closure of the RV dump site; just be sure to empty out before you arrive. When we stayed at the end of March we had not reserved a site but plenty were available. We love the quiet here and the forested setting of the campground. The trees provide a nice break for the frequent windy conditions.

It is located 5 miles off of Hiway 101...so the only sounds you hear are ocean waves, wind in the trees, and birds chirping. This is a very clean and well maintained campground...and the beach! Long beach walks and sunsets out our window...plus a lighthouse within walking distance.

We loved staying at this park. It is nestled beautifully in the trees next to the ocean. There are trails from the campground leading to the beach, and lighthouse. The trees provide a nice cover to the campground limiting the amount of wind that is typical along the coastal areas. The only downside is the dump station is permanently closed. You can dump in town at the Chevron for a donation, or at Humbug State Park about 30 min. south of here. This has been one of our most favorite places to camp!

This was a great find as we were heading up the Oregon Coast. The spots are deep and will accommodate long Motorhomes, also each spot is very secluded. There are trails to view the ocean and to walk out to the Cape Blanco Lighthouse. The campground is located above the ocean. Beach access on foot or you can drive out onto the beach. Each spot was water and electric. There are showers and restrooms. What I loved is first come, first served. We are here the end of April with about 5 other RV’s no crowds.

Cape Blanco's campground is one of the best we've ever visited for privacy, site size, and site separation. The generously sized spaces are enclosed in dense forest and each site feels incredibly private. The only downside of the dense foliage is that there is little chance to see and hear the Pacific, even from sites that basically back up to the ocean. But there's no need to worry, as the park features numerous hiking trails that run along the coast, offering breathtaking views of the ocean (dotted with the dramatic rocks of the Blanco reef) and the historic lighthouse. The park also includes a historic homestead. The home and the lighthouse can only be toured from April through October, but the park is open for camping year round.
All sites in the campground are good, but sites on the eastern side of the loop seem to be a little more open and sunny, while sites on the west side are in deep shade. Sites on the outside of the loop are longer and have angled entry, so are the best choice for large rigs. Sites on the interior of the loop are generally shorter and perpendicular to the road. Site 32 is directly across from one of the most open clifftop viewing areas near the campground, so choose a site in that area if you want quick access to watch sunsets. We visited in late October, so we had our choice of sites at the campground. The bathhouse is centrally located in the loop and was clean and functional during our visit.
The nearby town of Port Orford has one gas station and a small grocery store, but the entire area is lightly populated so come prepared with supplies. Despite the small population, we experienced good cell coverage on AT&T including several solid bars of service within the campground. The road into the state park from 101 has some areas in dire need of repair but nothing we considered too treacherous to tow across.

No reservations needed. Get there early though and wait for people to leave. They fill up fast. We had lots of afternoon sun in our site. Very windy and chilly mid July 2018 but so worth it. Lots of trails. No dump station but you can use the nearest state park for free at Bullard Beach to the north or Humbug SP to the south

Arrived after dark in the rain, but was able to select a secluded site that was high and dry. Site had partial hookups electricity and water. The dump station was out of service. Self-registration and payment are at the campground host Site #50.
Fortunately, in the morning the clouds broke and we had a nice walk from the dayuse parking to the Lighthouse even though tours are not offered from Oct-Mar.
We did not have cell reception on ATT, but we did have data with our Hotspot.

We spent the end of June through Independence Day here. It's a first come, first serve campground, but seemed to have a least a couple spots open up almost every day. Half the campground is under the shade of trees and half is more open with some sun. Although pretty, it got chilly under the trees and we often ended up in our friends' site in the sun.
You can walk to beautiful cliff views or down to the beach. You have water and electric at your site and very clean restrooms and showers in the center of the cg. The showers are nice and warm, just avoid the third one in the ladies' stalls. The spray is misty and lets in too much air to stay warm.
