Waxmyrtle Campground
Hosted by USDA Forest Service
New listing
Waxmyrtle Campground is located 8 miles south of Florence within the Oregon Dunes National Recreation Area. The campground is situated near the beach, several hiking trails, and a non-motorized section of open dunes. It also borders the picturesque Siltcoos River Estuary, where wildlife viewing is a popular pastime for campers. The campground serves as the starting point for the Waxmyrtle Trail, which follows the Siltcoos River as it winds its way to the Pacific Ocean. Other nearby trails include the Lagoon Trail and the Chief Tsiltcoos Trail. Nearby off-road vehicle trails and open dune riding areas provide hours of fun for off-road enthusiasts. Camping is available from May 1 through September 30, and amenities include drinking water, a campground host, flush toilets, picnic tables, fire rings, recycling and trash collection. Parking aprons are paved. The campground sits near the Siltcoos River among shore pine, huckleberry and other coastal shrubs and conifers. Many sites are surrounded by a thick wall of coastal shrubbery, providing ample privacy from neighboring sites. It is part of the Oregon Dunes National Recreation Area, which is known for its wind-sculpted sand dunes towering up to 500 feet above sea level. Siltcoos Lake offers bass, cutthroat trout and rainbow trout fishing, and the Siltcoos off-highway vehicle staging area is located less than 1 mile west of the campground on the Siltcoos Beach Access Road.
