Need to Know

• Guidelines for a safe visit to the Siuslaw National Forest

  Effective November 18, 2020, the State of Oregon is enacting temporary new rules to limit the rapid spread of COVID-19. The Siuslaw’s campgrounds, day use areas, and trails continue to be open for public enjoyment. While you are visiting the Forest, please follow these guidelines to ensure a safe and healthy visit for you and your family, our employees and volunteers, and other visitors.

  • By state orders, limit your activities, including those outdoors, to no more than six people total, and from no more than two households.

  • By state orders, everyone age 5 and older must wear a face covering over their nose and mouth in indoor public spaces and outdoors when physical distancing of 6 feet is not possible. 

  • Restrooms that are open are generally cleaned and disinfected at least once daily at the more popular campgrounds and day use sites, and once to three times a week at other sites. 

  • Be prepared for limited or no services, including no trash collection at recreation sites. Be prepared to provide your own soap, sanitizer, or disinfectant.

  • If no trash receptacle is provided, please protect your public lands by packing out your waste and trash.

Recreation

Spinreel ultimately attracts off-road vehicle enthusiasts. Thrill-seekers have their choice of riding on designated routes like the Coast Guard Trail and ATV Trail #430, or cruising in the open riding sections. Swimming and beachcombing are also enjoyed along the Pacific coast. Fishing is available in the creek; Winter steelhead love the cold waters.

Changes & Cancellations

Normally, a campsite will be released to first-come, first-serve status if it is not occupied within the first 24 hours of the arrival time on the reservation. This campground does not have any first-come, first-serve sites available at this time; with this in mind, the 24-hour arrival policy is temporarily suspended until further notice.
