South Newport Campground

It was perfect for one night

It was quick and easy what I needed for a one night stay. The sites were level. I didn’t even have to unhook.

This is just a super basic place to camp. I drove in at night as I made my reservation online and had to call the office number to figure out which site was mine. There's hardly any lighting so setting up when it was dark was very hard. I had to call the office number and spoke to a lady to direct me to my site. They are not well marked. All the utilities are in one spot. Mine in particular spot number 12, had an electric box with no breaker and a water spigot that was rotated to face it!!!! My sewer line was at an angle above my camper so I had to manually lift my hose to dump all of it out because it sat at the mouth of my dump tank due to the angle. The sites were fairly level at least and they had a dumpster to put my trash in but there are no amenities and no one seems to be around. It looks like there are two or three permanent residents as I saw some campers that were very dusty and had some miscellaneous items outside of the camper. And there were a few that had been parked but had nothing outside of them but we're in better condition, more like a seasonal stay camper. In general it was clean and safe and a place to hook up, but I wouldn't suggest any more than an overnight here. And paying $45 for full hookup with no amenities seemed a bit much in this area.
