Primitive camping sites on a wonderful island! The bird songs throughout the day are a joy to listen to.
Great camp ground and wonderful hosts! is truly a sandbar. The bathrooms are compost toilets so there is that to deal with. No power or running water in the island and it is only accessible by your own boat or the shuttle from the marina.
Island campground accessible to all paid campers via boat shuttle (included in cost to camp -- $30/site, up to 6 people per site). Two well-maintained docks on the Oregon side of the island for those with owned boats/watercraft to access island as they please. Site description/photos online do not accurately capture the sites; I'd recommend waiting to book until you arrive. Bathrooms are composting toilets + urinals. No shavings available for composting toilets when I visited, floors were pretty gross too. There are handwashing stations outside, no sanitizer just soap + water but no paper towels. There are trash and recycling bins available, but no water so BYO. Very windy on the points, make sure to bring tent stakes!
It's a lovely island with beautiful views. You can get the shuttle across between 8am and 8pm. Access all hours if you have a boat.
