Tugman State Park Campground — Attraction in Reedsport

We stayed in two yurts for 6 nights the past week. Parking is right out front the yurt, so not long to haul your stuff inside. Walk to playground and lake wasn't too far, and we did that many times a day. The bathroom was close and showers just little farther but all very central.

The lake has some sandy areas for playing in sand and a logged off shaollow water ares for swimming. There were salamanders in the water.

Theirs a trail to walk. Not difficult incline, but it is 3.5 miles out, then 3.5 back if you do the whole thing and 7 miles total potentially. The best veiw point is around mile one. I saw mushrooms and snake and frogs and snails on hike. Some crossing are just boards further you get.

We did a short drive to lighthouse and loved to tour and a trip to beach by coosbay another day.

Internet was spotty on the phone, but I had cell service. You can't her traffic noise from 101, but I grew up next to freeway so...

Stayed in yurt G for a couple nights. This particular site was a little more private due to being surrounded by bushes than a lot of the other yurts. Yurt was very clean and park staff were pleasant. Purchased firewood a few times during our stay. $5 a bundle and close to yurts. Short walk to the day use area on the lake. Was very enjoyable. The restrooms and showers were clean. Shower and restroom stalls are VERY narrow and tight. There is very little room to even get in the door in the restrooms. Showers were mostly warm. You will also get some road noise at all times of the day and night as the campground is right on highway 101. It’s not too bad though. Campground grounds were kept up nicely. Campsites can be pretty tight especially if you have a larger vehicle like an RV. Overall a lovely...

As usual the best place to nap for 4 hour or so. It IS posted no overnight camping but I think the rangers (there's a ranger station there) are pretty much understanding. I've NEVER been harassed but I'm also very discreet also. I've had to sleep there about ten times now. Never by choice. Much appreciated Rangers, thanks for refraining laying the dreaded knock on me. Now If you are reading this and abuse the glory of this beautiful boat launch complete with showers (now changing rooms damn covid) great clean BRs and potable water. I hope the rangers do start to put their foot down. You're gonna ruin it for everyone in a bind. If you have to nap possibly longer than 4 hrs do it during the day. There IS a relatively inexpensive campground...
