Overview

Horsfall Beach Campground is located along the central Oregon Coast, about 2 miles north of North Bend. The campground is ideal for off-road vehicle riders and visitors looking to take it easy on the beach. Other activities in the area include hiking and horseback riding.

Recreation

The campground is an outstanding home base for off-road vehicle riding on the dunes. Off-road vehicle trails and open riding zones are located due north and northeast of the campground. Visitors can also take in outstanding views of the Pacific Ocean from the campground's accessible viewing platform. Meanwhile, the beach offers a great place for beachcombing, sunbathing, and swimming.

Other nearby non-motorized opportunities include Bluebill Lake Trail and the Wild Mare Horse Trail (which is open to horseback riders and hikers).

Facilities

Flush toilets, drinking water, trash collection, recycling, and an accessible beach viewing platform are on-site. Sites 1-23 have picnic tables and fire rings, sites 24-34 do not. The day-use area provides a paved parking area for pedestrian beach access. The self-pay station for this area is located on Horsfall Beach Road. There are no dump stations or RV hookups. This campground is 100% reservations only; NO walk up or "first come first serve" sites are available.

Natural Features

The campground sits on a beach along the Pacific Coast, within the Oregon Dunes National Recreation Area. Open sand dunes and extensive forested areas are located nearby. Horsfall Lake, Spirit Lake, Bluebill Lake, and a number of smaller ponds are also located to the east of the campground.
