Waxmyrtle Campground
About Waxmyrtle Campground
Waxmyrtle Campground is located near the Siltcoos River among shore pine, huckleberry, and other coastal shrubs and conifers. Many sites are surrounded by a thick wall of coastal shrubbery, providing ample privacy from neighboring sites. Amenities include paved parking and aprons, drinking water, flush toilets, and trash receptacles. The Waxmyrtle Trail #1337 offers outstanding views of the lower river estuary and the Pacific Ocean as it winds its way along the river to the beach. Other nearby trails include the Lagoon Loop Trail #1330 and Chief Tsiltcoos Trail #1359. Wildlife viewing is a popular pastime for campers. Portions of the nearby estuary are protected nesting areas for the snowy plover, a small shorebird with a tan tail and snowy white underside.
