Port Of Newport Annex RV Park
Overview
The Port of Newport Annex RV Park offers a practical and convenient base for exploring the rugged beauty of the Oregon Coast. Situated near the bustling South Beach marina, this facility serves as an essential landing spot for travelers who prioritize proximity to the water and local maritime industry. While it maintains a more functional atmosphere than a traditional woodland resort, it provides the reliability and accessibility needed for a successful coastal stay. Guests often appreciate the paved, level sites and the straightforward approach to RV camping in this active port community.
Location & Surroundings
You will find this park nestled on the south side of the iconic Yaquina Bay Bridge, placing it within walking distance of several local landmarks. The surrounding area is characterized by its maritime heritage, with the sounds of foghorns and the sight of fishing vessels creating a unique coastal ambiance. The park is conveniently located near the Rogue Ales Brewery and the NOAA marine operations center, making it an ideal spot for those who enjoy being in the heart of a working waterfront environment.
Amenities & Park Features
This annex facility is designed with functionality in mind, offering full hookup sites that accommodate a variety of rig sizes. The sites are generally paved, ensuring a stable setup for your stay. Essential services such as basic Wi-Fi, clean restroom facilities, and laundry rooms are available to ensure comfort during longer visits. The park's layout is open, which makes it particularly easy for big-rig navigation and provides a sense of community among fellow travelers, commercial fishermen, and seasonal visitors.
Nearby Attractions & Things to Do
Staying here puts you moments away from the world-class Oregon Coast Aquarium and the Hatfield Marine Science Center. Nature lovers can explore the nearby South Beach State Park for miles of sandy trails and beachcombing opportunities. For those interested in local flavors, a quick trip across the bridge leads to the Historic Bayfront, where you can watch sea lions, visit art galleries, or enjoy fresh seafood. The park is also a prime spot for crabbing and fishing enthusiasts looking for easy access to the bay.
Who This Park Is Best For
The Port of Newport Annex RV Park is ideal for active explorers and fishing hobbyists who want to be steps away from the marina. It is a fantastic choice for those attending events at the aquarium or science center, as well as travelers seeking a no-frills, reliable base while touring the central Oregon coastline. If you value a prime location and easy access to urban conveniences and maritime activities over a secluded forest setting, this park will fit your travel style perfectly.

TimeOut
DID NOT RECEIVE REFUND AS PROMISED. We arrived to set up at our reserved spot at the Annex, to find it occupied. It took the host and Security 'till almost dark to vacate those people. But then we didn't feel safe plugging in since our electric box was only 3' from the neighbors large fire ring group. Next day at the RV office, the clerk said she'd refund us for that night, and offered a free night at the expensive main RV area. Surprise! We were charged for both nights, and despite leaving several call messages, we never got a call back and never got a refund. BEWARE: the Annex is a dirty cramped dump -- and park staff will lie to you!

We ended up staying 5 months in the Annex! The monthly prices during the off season are way overpriced. During the on season even way more overpriced. If staying here again I would definitely choose the Marina side instead of the annex. I would say any place not backed up to the Motel 6 would be great! Motel 6 couldn't get a handle on the bridge workers who were staying on a basis. They enjoyed loud parties, get togethers, grills on the balcony and you ended up with a yard full of cigarette butts, leftover food containers and food! Regular visitors were the same. There really is no privacy between your RV and the motel or your neighbors for that matter. Our neighbor was a spot & parking hog, they have been there for a few years not (not sure how that works when the limit is supposed to be 6 months). Not all spots have 50 amp so I am sure the spots are limited. If I had to stay again it would be on the east side of the annex. When it rains it gets very muddy and potholes and it becomes difficult to park your vehicle without causing ruts and they become deep ruts because there is no where else to park. Not sure when they last filled the pot holes. It seems like the codes are handed out freely by previous guests as they have to change the bathroom codes often. The laundry room hasn't changed in over 6 years, same machines and same dirtiness. Expensive to wash and dry. The internet has not improved at all it is almost non existent. The channels you get are very limited in the annex and you do not get what is advertised. So in the 6 years since we last stayed long term the prices have pretty doubled and the service has not improved to match the services. The views in the Marina are outstanding the annex still leaves a lot to be desired. You things with the amount they charge they could have greatly improved the annex! Hannah has some great customer service skills!

Great RV park right off 101. The park has very nice facilities, the spots are nice and long, and everything is very well maintained. It’s located right in the marina where you can catch great sunsets or walk over to Rogue Brewing Company. Only about 20 minutes from Devil’s Punchbowl and some great lighthouses. Highly recommend!

It is impossible to get in touch with anyone lately. The online reservation system is down and to make a reservation you have to call the office. The problem is no one ever answers the phone. I have tried calling different times of the day and different days of the week but it always says no one is available. You leave a message but they don't call back for at least 24 hours and if you are away from your phone (because you are working) you lose out on getting to speak to someone and the whole thing starts over again. I sure hope they get their online system back up and running soon.
