Bud's RV Park & Campground
Overview
Bud's RV Park & Campground offers a peaceful retreat in the charming coastal town of Gearhart, Oregon. Unlike the larger, more crowded resorts found in neighboring coastal towns, this park provides a more intimate and community-focused atmosphere for travelers. It serves as an excellent basecamp for those looking to explore the rugged beauty of the North Coast while enjoying a quiet, well-managed place to rest at the end of the day. The property maintains a vintage coastal charm that resonates with long-time RVers.
Location & Surroundings
Situated just off the iconic Highway 101, the park is nestled in a peaceful residential area that feels remarkably secluded from heavy tourism traffic. Travelers are within walking distance or a very short drive of the pristine Gearhart beach, which is widely known for its expansive sandy shores and excellent razor clamming opportunities. The surrounding landscape is defined by coastal pines and the refreshing, salty breeze of the Pacific Ocean, creating a serene environment for an evening stroll.
Amenities & Park Features
The park provides essential comforts designed to make your stay seamless and comfortable. Guests have access to well-maintained facilities that prioritize cleanliness and functionality. Key park features include:
- Full hookups with both 30 and 50-amp service to accommodate a variety of RV sizes.
- On-site laundry facilities and clean restrooms with hot showers for guest convenience.
- The adjacent Bud’s Grocery and Deli, a local staple famous for its fresh sandwiches and essential supplies.
Nearby Attractions & Things to Do
Outdoor enthusiasts will appreciate being minutes away from the historic Gearhart Golf Links, which is one of the oldest golf courses in the Pacific Northwest. Just a few miles south, the lively Seaside Boardwalk offers family-friendly entertainment, while a short drive north leads to the rich maritime history and craft breweries of Astoria. For nature lovers, Ecola State Park offers breathtaking cliffside views and hiking trails that showcase the dramatic beauty of the Oregon shoreline.
Who This Park Is Best For
This park is ideal for quiet seekers and independent travelers who prefer a relaxed, small-town pace over high-energy resort activities. It is a fantastic choice for those who value convenience, specifically having a high-quality deli and grocery store located right on the property. If you are an RVer looking for a well-maintained home base to explore the wonders of Clatsop County without the noise of the bigger cities, Bud's provides the perfect balance of simplicity and coastal charm.

Love the homemade smoked brisket and BBQ sandwiches. Every time I have to go from Astoria to seaside or vice versa I actually have to stop and get a sandwich. Some of the best smoked brisket that I've ever had. Any employees are friendly and helpful.

Buds is the perfect place for me,I come to the Coast once or twice a year to go salmon fishing.Buds is small very clean and convenient to everything you would need. The food at the deli is very good and very convenient after a long day on the ocean. I will try and stay at Buds for all my salmon fishing trips to the northern Oregon coast.

Cute little RV park. Nice and quiet. No pull through spots, back in spaces only. Laundry and showers on site. Grocery store has enough to get you through a stay, but isn't a full grocery store. Staff is fun and friendly. Perfect location to stay away from tourist trap, but close enough to visit Astoria and other popular locations. The beach is a short walk away.
