We love this beach when we are in Oregon. This is one of our go to spots for day use. The beach…read moreis awesome for finding shells, agates and driftwood. It's also fairly empty and quite. My dog really enjoys running around and playing here. Once we are done on the beach there are plenty of trails for her to walk on and wildlife to see. She especially loves the birds and the turkeys. It's easy to spend 4 hours here daily just exploring and enjoying the water. It's fairly clean and safe since the beach is a decent ways away from the road. We haven't camped here or used the restrooms. We just enjoy the water and the trails. It's a perfect place for a picnic on a warm day and an excellent area to stretch your legs on a car trip.

We arrived late after dark and it was very easy to check in with no ranger present at the gate house. In the morning we awoke to find a beautiful campsite with easy access to the beach and the Coquille River Lighthouse. We met friendly RVers right next to us and I would gladly stay here again. Generally, Bandon doesn't get as much attention as some of the other spots up the coast, but I really liked it here. The beach is quiet and peaceful and, although it doesn't have the crazy rock formations that some others do, it is definitely worth a visit. The driftwood here was nuts!

This place isn't huge,…read moreso if somebody had already planned a company picnic or family reunion or something of the sorts, there isn't going to be a lot of spare space for others. That being said, this park, albeit somewhat primitive (just not fancy), is really nice. The grounds keepers do a nice job keeping up with the mowing and pruning. The path on the far side of the park leads down to the water and gives you a great vantage point of where the North and South Umpqua rivers run together prior to becoming the Umpqua and heading out to the pacific ocean. The setting here provided for some nice back drops for some pictures with family. Unless you are planning a picnic or something your trip here probably won't take exceptionally long, but it's well worth the few minute drive to get here and check it out.

However, you can't just easily walk to the beach from your site because one way from the camping sites is 3/4 mile through mosquito walkways and another you could bike, walk or drive that is a 1-1/4 mile away from sites. If you have small children driving is best or you'll hear them complaining the whole way there. Beaches are beautiful and so is surrounding area. No play equipment for kids so best is them just riding around park. Which kids will make it fun. We don't tow a car with our RV so we are land locked unless we want to unhook everything. In summary won't be back due to lack of quick and easy access to beach via walking.

We drove past Beach Bound thinking we'd land in the County Park next door. The tall trees at Beach Bound beckoned us back though! Lucky us!

Wide spaced sites, with hookups and picnic tables, all under wonderful trees! We felt so lucky to have wound up here for a few nights...We found a gem that we wouldn't have otherwise known about! Belinda and Brian have built a tremendous place and are so clearly putting their heart into keeping it clean, tidy, and hospitable for guests.

They told me all the big sand dunes are south of reedsport and the john dellenback trail was recommended. No ATVs are allowed here so you don't have to worry about being run over while trekking the dunes.

One of…read morethe huge benefits of the trail is that there is no recreational vehicle use allowed there, so you don't have to worry about being run over by a dune buggy or atv while taking in the beauty of the dunes. To get to the trail, take the turn for the eel creek campground and follow signs for the trailhead. There are bathroom facilities available. Make sure to purchase a pass- you can purchase a single day pass on location or purchase a yearly pass for all the Oregon state parks in Coos Bay at the visitor center for about $30. If you are the active type, you can rent a sandboard and sandboard down the dunes, which is a lot of fun! The trail begins in a wooded area and takes you down a path of dirt that gradually turns into sand as you arrive near the dunes. You see a lot of local plants and wildlife, and there are some exhibits to check out and rest spots with benches along the way. The trail will begin to take an upturn and then you will suddenly come out of the trees onto what looks like a huge desert.... it is breathtaking! You can take the same way back on your way out or for some new sights take the trail located closer to the large mountain-esque dune. Really good hike for kids- they love rolling down the dunes and feeling the sand between their toes. Just be sure you are okay with finding sand everywhere for the next month. Happy hiking!

They allow dogs on the trail as long as they're leash and you clean up after them so regular rolls in my opinion. It's a great place to hike with your dog. The trails are decently maintained they are easy to follow and the signage is really clear. I've wandered many trails one that hook up and Link into another trial and one that I've made a choice to walk down a different path and no matter how long I've walked and how many different trails I've taken we've never got lost. It's a great place to grow mushroom hunting as well. I've never run into any problems with trickers or transients. Every trial we've ever taken has led to a positive outcome. I probably spent 15 hours hiking here with my dog and her friends. It's free and not too far away from whiskey run if you want to hit the beach. I don't know anything about The interpreter center or classes they offer here because I have never been here without my pup.
