Camping in Oregon is one of those amazing experiences that should be on everyone's bucket list. Pitch a tent, roast marshmallows, and enjoy the serene beauty of Oregon. Last summer we brought you a list of great places to go camping, and now we're back with 11 more stunning places to spend the night in nature. From oceanside yurts to majestic lakeside campgrounds, here are 11 of the most amazing places to camp in Oregon:
11. Cape Lookout State Park
Cape Lookout is a spectacular state park on the northern Oregon Coast. Pitch your tent in a beautiful forest and spend your days hiking around to stunning viewpoints and sandy coves. If you want to try something a little different, you can rent an adorable yurt for an awesome experience.
10. Lost Lake
One of my personal favorite places to camp is the gorgeous Lost Lake. This hidden gem is nestled into the Mt. Hood National Forest and has a great campground as well as beautiful scenery, hiking trails, and recreation opportunities. Spend the day swimming, hiking, and picnicking, and then settle down in the evening to watch the sun set over the beautiful lake, silhouetting the picturesque peak of Mt. Hood.
9. Silver Falls State Park
Silver Falls State Park is a true gem. This incredible place is Oregon's largest state park and it's full of amazing waterfalls, rivers, trails, and forest scenery; unsurprisingly, this gorgeous park is a perfect place to go camping. While you're here, you'll definitely want to check out the famous Trail Of Ten Falls.
