Siuslaw/Alder Dune Campground

Alder Dune Campground sits in a lush coastal forest between Alder and Dune Lakes. There are 39 campsites with privacy created by walls of native shrubbery. The day-use area is nearest to Dune Lake, and the northern loop of the campground runs along Alder Lake. Pit toilets and drinking water are available at the nicely shaded campground. Roads are paved.

Host currently is a total bossy jerk with attitude issues. This place used to be affordable several years ago. Price was single digit price now 17 plus for america beautiful pass. I question price as not much updating done.

$31 dollars to put up a tent for a night with just the basics. Picknick table and fire ring. water in certain places. At least the pit toilets were some of the cleanest we encountered on our 10 day camping trip. Also it is far away from the beach and the dunes around the campground are not high enough that you could see the beach or a sunset. You can still get some pretty pictures just not of the beach or water.

Good for RV camping. In a tent, you will hear the highway all night long over the very faint sound of the waves. Any sites near the restroom will have to endure an odor, despite it being very well maintained. Some sites have no level area without exposed roots (forget about a tent there). There is Forest and Dune hiking very close. Basically in Florence if you want to be close to town.

Pros: - Cute private camp sites (on the reservation side at least) — we had total privacy up in our spot. - Nice camp host who religiously cleans bathrooms. Cons: - No matter how clean they looked, the smell of the vault toilets was bad, and so strong that we could easily smell it from our site. - Didn't realize how close the sites on our side of the campground are to the highway and were really disappointed with just how loud it was all day and all night. All together, the cons were enough that we tried to spend as little time at our camp as possible. Pick a site as far from the toilets and highway as possible, and bring earplugs to get any sleep.

Pros: convenient location, the lake is pretty, lots of wild Berries, cute little trails around the lake, very clean bathrooms for a campsite. Cons: you can hear cars on the highway at night, the lake is quite small and we found 3 random fish hooks near the shore, the spots were tiny (we literally had to set one of the tents up on the cement) and close to one another (we heard lots of other campers, including some folks who brought out a home theater with amplified sound). It was sufficient for our needs, but nothing spectacular. Seems like it is well-suited for RV camping, though.
