The park, located on the fringes of the Chetco river, is beautifully planned, attractively landscaped, and meticulously maintained. The staff was welcoming, and our check-in process was swift. The entrance to the park involves a left turn onto a slender, paved path with a steep downward slope, so cautious driving is advised. The park's internal roads are broad and easily navigable for vehicles of all sizes. We were escorted to our campsite, which featured a paved parking pad, grass, and shrubbery. Our pull-through site, number 312, was sufficiently lengthy, though somewhat tight. The shrubs separating the sites are aesthetically pleasing, but they occupy a significant portion of the patio area, making it impossible to place our picnic table next to the motorhome once the slide-outs were extended. However, leveling the motorhome was not an issue. There was no T-Mobile reception and we did not utilize the WiFi. Although there is no designated dog park, there are numerous areas for walking dogs on leashes, complete with dog waste stations and bags. The laundry facility was immaculate and well-stocked. We experienced no traffic noise. The park's location is convenient to the harbor and dining options. We would definitely consider a return visit.

Although getting families together is a good thing it should be done with the respect of the other guest in the park... 5 different spaces got together for a family reunion and party with very load music every night (except the 4th of July), I assume the reason was that they left to see the fireworks or because they had at least a 1/2 dozen guest show up every night that were not Park guest for the party and maybe they were from CA and maybe had to work the next day. The Park does have quite hours starting at 10 every night and they did calm the music down usually about 11 so at least it didn't go on all night but the yelling to make sure they could hear each other over the load music was a bit too much. At the sametime we complained about it other guest were also complaining about it. I understand this type of place is popular for many people but if you're looking for peace and quite this is not your place.

Excellent little spot if you want quiet and peace. Park was well maintained. Clean. Amenities were not like some of the resorts we have stayed at in regards to hot tubs and pools and lots of people running around. Which was both good and bad. I do love a good hot tub but the view of the chetco river was awesome. if you have a back patio like we do spots 130 or 128 would have been great but 129 has a tree right in front of you. So that limited the amount of time on the loungers on the back patio. Staff was very friendly and accomodating. Escorted into our spot and camp host stayed till we were pretty much fully set up to ensure we were good to go. Cell phone service as far as making calls was perfect but the Data side was a bit slow as you are around the bend from 101 and in the mountains (Coastal Hills?) Overall experience was great however in regards to our stay would absolutely come back. I would imagine this place during the summer months when people are trying to beat the heat would be amazing. As you could float the chetco and land right back at your campground. Ohhh and since no one has mentioned this yet that i have read in the reviews just be prepared for a pretty steep incline on the way in and out of the park.

We were staying in Redding, CA, and scoped this place for our next stop. It was all full. But Barb thankfully took our call and I asked if any cancellations occur, (for July 5 & 6th) to give me a call. Sometimes it just pays to be luckier than good! Most apparently book this way in advance. But the cancellation site we were assigned was with a river view. Nice spacing between sites. The place is very clean and just a couple of miles east of Highway 101. The bathrooms and showers are also very clean. Showers take quarters for 8 minutes. Good WiFi coverage. Don't let the rock quarry across the river scare you. They don't work and night and only heard them just a bit during the day.

The camping is very quiet, not many kids in the campground, a lot of residents/ long term. The river view and access is great. The bathroom is very clean but the shower is paid $.25 per 8 minutes. I would go back because the river and the site is worth the trip.

We stay here regularly when fishing the Chetco. We go back and forth between Harris State beach and ARE. ARE offers nice level (gravel) sites with a picnic table. Fire pits along the river. Excellent WIFI. Clean showers/bath. Laundry facilities, propane available. Helpful office staff and camp hosts. River view sites are the best in my opinion, sites 203-215 are our first choice. Nice views, nice walk to the beach for pets, friendly 'locals' that FT here too. The park is divided into full time and daily rental. The park is quiet at night but the quarry across the street is noisy. Since we're river fishing all day it isn't a problem for us but others might find it irritating.
