Nehalem Bay State Park Comments & Reviews
Visited Nehalem Bay State Park Campground lately? We'd love to hear about your adventure. Did you find us useful? Did we forget something? Anything our community should know before heading out to Nehalem Bay State Park?
Great Camping. I thought i was in cold, but paradise
I think it is sad that Newhalem bay took away ADA sites. This was one of the reasons we enjoyed going but now you no longer accommodate disability is shocking
Staying here right now. I love the park but the building with showers has no heat!
What time is check-in and check-out?
Hi Melissa,
Check out and check in at Nehalem Bay State Park is 4pm, but often sites are available earlier.
