Visitor & Driver Tips
If you are arriving with a boat trailer or an extended RV, approach along North Lake Road to N 8th Street for the gentlest turn angles. Parking fills up quickly during prime summer fishing tournaments and holiday weekends (Memorial Day through Labor Day), so contacting management ahead of time to confirm lot policies or reserve extended space is strongly recommended. Keep in mind that seasonal weather on the Oregon coast can bring heavy rain, so always inspect ground stability if staging heavy trailers on unpaved shoulders.
