BROOKINGS, Ore. – Beginning New Year’s Day the majority of campsites at Alfred A. Loeb State Park will be available for reservation for stays between Memorial Day and Sept. 30, 2020.

The park’s 53 total campsites have traditionally been first-come, first-served; however 48 of the sites will be available for reservation next summer. All sites will revert back to first come, first served for the winter season, beginning Oct. 1.

Campsite rates at the park will not change, however an $8 reservation fee will apply when booking a site.

Dani Padilla, park manager, says the new summer reservation option will help eliminate visitor guesswork about campsite availability.

“Loeb has always been a popular local campground but in recent years we’ve seen a dramatic rise in visitation, especially during summer months” says Padilla. “The result was an increasing number of campers arriving after-hours, expecting a site, and not finding one. The option to reserve a site will help give them peace of mind about their stay.”

All of the reservable sites have electricity and water. The park’s three cabins require reservations year-round. One cabin and one campsite at the park are accessible for people with disabilities. 

Campsites at the park can be reserved online or by calling 800-452-5687.
