should bring an ample amount. Campsites are primitive and all campers must
bring their own portable toilets and fire pans.

10 vehicles and up to 40 people. Within each campsite, all vehicles and tents
must be positioned within 150 feet of the campsite marker post. Campsites are

Driftwood

## Overview

Lagoon Campground is located about 8 miles south of Florence within the Oregon
Dunes National Recreation Area. Most of the campground's sites are surrounded
by beautiful coastal shrubbery. Fishing and hiking are popular here, with the
Lagoon Trail providing a short but scenic hiking loop around the perimeter of
the campground. A beach along the Pacific Ocean is also within walking
distance.

## Recreation

The Lagoon Trail is an accessible loop that provides wetland wildlife viewing
on boardwalks. On the south side of the Siltcoos River, the 1.3-mile Waxmyrtle
Trail offers outstanding views of the lower Siltcoos estuary and the Pacific
Ocean. The Chief Tsiltcoos Trail is also nearby. Anglers can find rainbow
trout in the lagoon in winter and spring. In Siltcoos Lake, bass, steelhead,
cutthroat trout, yellow perch, and bluegill may take the bait.

## Facilities

Amenities include flush toilets, drinking water, picnic tables, trash
collection, recycling, and fire rings with grills. Parking aprons are paved. A
dump station is located less than 5 miles away at Honeyman State Park.

## Natural Features

At an elevation of 100 feet, the campground sits among shore pine and
huckleberry along the Siltcoos Lagoon and the Siltcoos River. The campground
is part of the Oregon Dunes National Recreation Area, known for its wind-
sculpted sand dunes towering to 500 feet above sea level. Wildlife is abundant
in the campground and along the Lagoon Trail. Native animal inhabitants
include beavers, ducks, herons, and bitterns (a waterfowl relative of the
heron).

LAGOON CAMPGROUND

Lagoon Campground

Surrounded by shore pine, waxmyrtle, huckleberry and salal, Driftwood is a
designated off-road vehicle riding campground that offers direct sand access
to the Oregon Dunes National Recreation Area. The layout of the campground is
a large parking lot with designated camping sites. Most sites come with a
picnic table and campfire pit, but RV pull-through sites 49-58 do not have
these amenities. The campground has flush toilets, drinking water and hot
showers.

Off-road vehicle riding is the ultimate attraction here and the Driftwood II
OHV Trail is a great place to start. For added variety, beach goers can enjoy
swimming, sunbathing, and watching sea birds at the nearby beach. If in
season, whales may be spotted in the ocean as well.

During snowy plover nesting season (March 15 - September 15), hiking access to
the beach is only from the Siltcoos Beach Day Use parking lot.

_The original Driftwood I Campground was located south of the Siltcoos Beach
Road near the river in an area now covered with conifers and other native
vegetation. This campground was decommissioned in the mid-late 1980s. The site
is also within the boundaries of the seasonally restricted snowy plover
nesting area._

Driftwood II Campground

## Overview

The Siltcoos sand camping area is located about seven miles south of Florence.
This unique area is an off-road enthusiast's dream: Several designated off-
road vehicle routes crisscross the dunes and forests, and there is also a
large open riding area to the north of Siltcoos Beach Road. In addition to
off-road vehicle riding, visitors can enjoy beachcombing, hiking, and wildlife
viewing.

Siltcoos is located within the Oregon Dunes National Recreation Area.

**These sites are only accessible to 4X4 vehicles on soft sand. Please plan
accordingly.**

## Recreation

Off-road vehicle riding is the primary attraction in the Siltcoos area, with
miles of designated trail and a large open riding zone. Elsewhere, Stagecoach
Hiking Trailhead provides access to several non-motorized trails, including
the accessible Lagoon Trail and the longer Waxmyrtle Trail. The Waxmyrtle
Trail meanders through coastal shore pine forests and follows the Siltcoos
River to the beach.

Visitors also enjoy playing in the surf and birding at the beach. A variety of
shorebirds are often spotted on the shore. Seasonal whale-watching is also a
popular activity.

## Facilities

There are 16 sand campsites in the Siltcoos area. The campsites are year-round
and can only be accessed by 4X4 vehicles. Standard sites accommodate up to 20
people and five vehicles. The group site accommodates up to 40 people and 10
vehicles. This is a popular facility and reservations are required for all
sites at all times of the year. Within each campsite, all vehicles and tents
must be positioned within 150 feet of the campsite marker post.  
  
This camping area is primitive and provides no water, restrooms, or campfire
rings. Visitors must bring their own water, portable toilets, and fire pans.

## Natural Features

Campsites are located directly on the sand. The dunefield is known for its
wind-sculpted sand dunes towering hundreds of feet above sea level. Throughout
the Siltcoos area, open sand dunes are interspersed with coastal forest. The
Oregon Dunes National Recreation Area features the largest expanse of coastal
sand dunes in North America.  
  
Snowy plovers, a threatened species of small coastal bird, have a designated
nesting habitat on Siltcoos Beach. Seasional closures apply.

## Nearby Attractions

Additional nearby hiking opportunities include Siltcoos Lake Trail, Taylor
Dunes Trail, and Tahkenitch Creek Trail. For a change of scenery, off-road
vehicle enthusiasts can check out the riding areas at South Jetty. For boating
and fishing, visit Siltcoos Lake, Carter Lake, or Sutton Lake.
