Overview

Horsfall Campground, located in the Oregon Dunes National Recreation Area, provides access to miles and miles of dunes. These dunes are open to off-road vehicle use, making this area a prime destination for adventure seekers looking to ride on the sand. The campground also sits within a mile of Horsfall Lake, Bluebill Lake, and a handful of small, tranquil ponds.

Horsfall Beach is located to the west at the end of Horsfall Beach road. Nearby non-motorized opportunities include Bluebill Lake Trail and the Wild Mare Horse Trail (which is open to horseback riders and hikers).

Facilities

Amenities include flush toilets, drinking water, trash collection, and recycling. An ATV loading ramp is also available. Each campsite contains a picnic table and a campfire ring with a grill.
