Port of Newport RV Park Annex

Needed a place to spend a couple nights on the Oregon Coast at Newport. This is a great area on the Oregon Coast.

As for the Annex, well it is a place to park, full hook ups cable TV. Did not try the WIFI. If you plan on spending most of your time out in a boat and just need a place to spend the night this Annex will work. Very Tight spots in an over grown parking lot. Not really worth the price but for this time of the year on the Oregon coast you take what you can get. Rouge Ale is right across the street.

For all the dog lovers. Be careful of the big field in the annex. While it is short and dry grass it is full of very sharp nasty stickers/burrs that will hurt your dogs feet. Not really anywhere to walk the dog on site.

We moved over from the Main Park because there was no place available to extend there. Access signage is barely adequate and the access roads are dusty and tight for our 36 foot motorhome. The sites are an uneven mix of grass and gravel, wouldn't care to be here in the rain. Our site was level enough for our leveling system to get us level. Utilities are acceptable, we did not need both air conditioners which is good since power is 30 amp.
We are closer to the highway so expect more noise. Site 176 is away from the Motel 6 so we are not overlooked from the windows. Since we got this spot for the 3rd and 4th of July!!! with one day's notice we are happy. The price reflects a $20/day surcharge for the holiday week.

We stayed at the Annex instead of the Marina, because it was right across the street from the Rouge distillery. Yes, it was nice to be across the street from the beer, but the site was terrible compared to the Marina.
The whole entire Annex is all uneven ground, on grass and right in front of a hotel 6.
The people above you can look in your skylight and the other people staying there, look like they have been there for a couple months.
There is only one way to get in and you will definitely miss it when you go there.
Overall, our experience was not the best. I wish we would have stayed at the Marina. It was cleaner and had a better view of the beautiful bridge and it;s not that much further from the Rouge Brewery. Infact, you can use a good walk home after being there to long ;)

The best thing about this RV park is that it’s right next to Rogue Brewery & Distillery. The second best thing about this park is that if you stay in the annex lot, which is directly across the street from Rogue, the air outside smells like malt, barley, hops – essentially mash. I personally love that smell.

The RV park has three different prices depending on if you’re staying in the main area (most expensive), the perimeter, or the annex (least expensive). They all have full hookups and good wifi signal. There is also a dry camping area for $18. The annex is down the street from the main campground and instead of being blacktop it’s a mix of gravel, dirt and grass, and can be muddy. We decided to stay in the annex to save a buck or two (our $33 was the off-season price). The price difference isn’t big enough to make it worth putting up with the annex there instead of the regular sites. The annex is pretty crummy looking and awkward - mainly awkward because there is an apartment building right above the RV spots. The apartments are so close that its balconies were directly above our RV. There are two bathrooms and a dumpster in the annex lot. There’s also a greenway across the street and access to the harbor. The stars for cleanliness and site quality are specifically for the annex.

While dogs are allowed, the first pet is free and the second is $2. The park has summer and winter prices. Don’t trust the prices on their website, it was outdated when we checked. I would recommend calling for the most up to date price. The park is also walking distance to the Oregon Coast Aquarium and supposedly guests can get a free Newport bus pass from the RV park office, which can bring them across the bridge to downtown Newport.

There is free Wi-Fi, no password and it was surprisingly fast (we were also there in early November).
