The RV park is well maintained and functional. The parks employee’s are friendly and always helpful. We took a walk towards the beach and found a beautiful view of the Willapa Bay. Very beautiful experience. We will be returning to Willapa RV park once again…

Camp ground is great. I have a 3 because our site was not clean. There was dog poop all over and it was stepped in several times. Was very hard to see because of the rocks and leaves.

Thank you for staying with us at Bay Center KOA! We hope you enjoyed your time in our peaceful forest setting. We wanted to clarify a small detail from your visit. What may have appeared to be dog droppings were actually from one of our more curious neighbors—a black bear! While our staff works h

My son was disappointed that the cabin didn't have a TV this year like it did 2 years ago. The trash can and heater needed to be wiped down along with cobwebs in the cabin. We liked the new woodsy area the cabins are in but it makes for a long walk to the bathrooms when wearing minimalist shoes and stepping on bigger sharp rocks on the road rather than gravel. Bathrooms were always clean!

Thank you for choosing Bay Center KOA for your recent stay! We wanted to share a quick update about our cabins. They were relocated about a year ago, and as part of that transition, we removed the televisions to create a more nature-focused experience. We hope this helped you unplug and enjoy the p

Wonderful small campground. Quiet level sites great friendly staff. The trail to the bay beach is great and wonderful views and sunsets. Great dog park area and all the thought out amenities like the dog/oyster wash station and don’t forget that they are wonderful with their communications and what’s happening notes. Great stay!

We love this campground. Generally we bring our trailer, but this time stayed in one of the bigger cabins. The walk to the beach is one of our favorites. The host are always welcoming and great communicators about what is going on in the campground.

Beautiful views and the staff was extremely accommodating!

Beautiful, wooded campground with all amenities. A lovely short walk to a view of the Bay, little longer walk to the beach. The drive to and from South Beach is just beautiful. We'll be coming back for sure!

people were so friendly! Lovely ands cozy with all the trees ands bushes. Sites were very clean! Access to the beach on the bay was great. A bit of a challenge with the stairs but they were kept strong and sturdy! If ever in the area I will stay here here!

The property is beautiful. It is well-maintained and in an excellent position next to a scenic beach that was a pleasure to walk. One downside was that the area we were placed had a group of people that stayed up till 1:00 in the morning outside their campers talking very loudly. They ignored the 10 o’clock quiet. We did not report this to the camp staff because it was our last evening.

Very nice KOA, in a quiet off the beaten path area. Has a beautiful view of the bay with steps down to the beach. Steps are very steep but you can drive around a short distance to easier beach access. Host are very nice and helpful . . . Wine & beer tasting around the campfire was nice. They even sent us home with an open bottle of wine and glasses, as it was then end of the season.

For a small KOA it was well laid out .Plenty of room for big rigs and the staff were very welcoming.

My stay at willipa bay was nearly perfect. The staff and hosts are very helpful and friendly, and the camp is well kept and clean. I opted to rent their clamming kit and try my luck, which was lots of fun as well. I caught my limit for the day pretty quickly. I will, without question, be back to this KOA in the future, and tell others of its greatness.

Lovely settings. Really quiet. Easy access to beach, down a STEEP staircase. Nice hosts, helpful. Only downside: boulders on all 4 corners of campsite, makes it very tricky pulling in/out with larger rig. Boulders could be moved to cause less concern�

Booked deluxe cabin because it had extra sofa bed. We arrived and we found out that our cabin does not have sofa bed. We spoke with employee to see if we can get it fixed and they took additional steps to ensure we are satisfied and happy and it all worked out in the end. I LOVE LOVE the cabin it was so spacious, clean, rustic vibe with everything we needed in the kitchen. No pool/hot tub though

Easy to find, beautiful country with the bay so close. I wish I could have stayed longer. Such a clean campsite, felt safe, thankful for the warm showers after days of hiking adventures, the hosts are amazingly friendly, helpful, available. Super nice. Thanks again

We had a great stay!!! The staff was helpful and pleasant. The campground was clean and very kept up. Our cabin was great. We can't wait to come back.

What a wonderful little hidden gem! Everyone was so friendly and helpful! A quick walk to view the bay and down some steps to the beach! We learned about clamming! Skylar’s cafe is a short drive away and has the most delicious fish & chips! A 40 minute drive south to Long Beach is a must see! We would stay here again. 45’ motorhome towing.

We loved our family trip to Willapa Bay KOA. Brian and Erica were incredible hosts and went above and beyond to ensure our stay was enjoyable. There were plenty of family friendly activities for everyone to participate in, we were really blown away by the attention to detail and hospitality. We hope to return again one day!

Hosts Erica and Brian provide the absolute best customer service! The park is maintained to the highest standards and activities abound for adults and children. We purchased the rental package for clamming. Brian taught “Clamming 101” while Erica set us up for purging and cooking the clams. My husband met his quota of 40 clams per day in about 30 minutes. So easy and so delicious! Highly recom

Wonderful smaller KOA with great hosts in a quiet, quaint location. Perfect for a family getaway where the kids were safe to roam but close enough to enjoy day trips to Oregon or Long Beach. Staff are so kind and friendly and we had a wonderful time. We'll definitely be returning.

Had a wonderful visit to Bay Center! We camped for the week and loved walking down to the beach each night and exploring the area during the day. Great jumping off point for Astoria, Long Beach, and Olympia. And the hosts were amazing with their suggestions and care of the campground. We will be back!
