From Coastal Memories to Great Stories-- Thank You for Sharing Your Experience
"We stayed here just to have a place to stay and ended up really falling in love. We didn't have reservations, but they found us a spot in the dry camping area, then we moved to a full hookup spot the next day. We met wonderful people, rented crab boats, and learned a new skill...
We can't wait to come back to McKinley's Marina & RV Park!"
"We bought a new camp trailer and booked a few spots along the coast to see what we like best and McKinley’s is hands down our new go to spot. Kid friendly (my youngest son said his best pal is the nice gentleman that works there and gives him golf cart rides) dog friendly and yet quiet and clean. The crabbing rentals they have are top notch and you can’t beat the location and service. Our new go to for coast family trips for sure."
"Great Park! Sweetheart for a host and beautiful spots on the bay. We ended up staying longer because we hated to leave. They also are set up with boat rentals for crabbing in the bay. Also....the prices for the lots and the boat rentals can't be beat. We'll definitely return for a more extended stay."
"Such an incredible place! We stayed for two nights on a trip up the coast and I honestly wish we would have adjusted our trip to stay here for more nights! We had a spot right on the river which was absolutely gorgeous. Despite the rains and wind during our stay , we went down to the dock right across the river and my young boys spent hours crabbing off the dock. It's a super short drive into Newport and one of the most fun rv parks we've stayed at in all of our Oregon travels!"
"We had a great time loading up our basket full of delicious dungees. Clean and cook them right at the dock! Nothing better! The staff was really helpful every step of the way, considering we had never done this before, they gave us some clear direction. Clean boats and tackle too! Couldn't recommend this marina any more strongly."
"Very well-maintained RV park. There are full hookups, dry camping, and boat parking. It's located right next to the Alsea River. They have a boat ramp, and a crab cooking station next to the office. The full hookups side has a grassy area in the middle with a horseshoe pit, and other lawn games. The dry camping area has a volleyball net, tether ball pole, and a basketball hoop. The park is Pet friendly, and family friendly. We enjoyed our stay here."
"Excellent RV park. Stayed here last summer and are returning again for several days. Place is very clean, including laundry and rest rooms. Staff is friendly and helpful. A restful place to watch the tides, waterbirds, and sunsets. Hookup stations are clever: double sided so you can pull in frontwards or back in. All paved. Highly recommended! Six stars!"
"We had a nice stay here with lovely water views. Nice location for exploring both north and south of the area along the coast. Site was level, AT&T service was good, laundry was clean and spacious and available 24/7. Quiet campground. Would definitely stay here again. Be sure to go to the bakery! Easy walk."
"This was our family’s 2nd trip to the park.
We love it. It is quickly becoming a family favorite. There is a sand play area, volleyball court and crabbing!
The gentlemen on the dock were extremely helpful and friendly. We really enjoy our time here and can't wait to return!"
"We had a wonderful time renting their boats and crabbing on the Alsea Bay. The boats had crab pot pullers which helped us to pull the pots in. They were very helpful in guiding us to the best spot to crab. The gentleman who checked the boat out gave us 3 rings, some bait, and also gave great directions on how to run the boat. Great place to rent boats!! We will be back!!"
"Had an amazing trip with my wife! We rented a boat and 6 crab pots and had 2 limits in 2 and a half hours unguided. Fun times! All the staff was really nice! Definitely will be back!!!"
"I stayed at this park for few months with my husband and dog. I found the sites were set nicely spaced, and the grounds were extremely clean. The staff was very nice, helpful and went the extra mile to make sure your stay and experience is as pleasant as possible. Well maintained crabbing boats and nice launch and docks. Can't wait to go back."
"Should you desire an RV or tent camping location in Waldport, Oregon look no
Further than McKinley’s RV and Marina. Located close to town and right on the water it’s ideal. Service is excellent. One can also rent a boat and crab rings to go crabbing and / or fishing."
"Great location. Nicely paved, large sites. Great views, right on Alsea Bay which gives you a waterfront location but protected from ocean storms. Short walk to town is convenient. Will definitely return. This will be our go-to spot on Oregon coast."
"Love McKinley’s! Get a water view spot and watch the wildlife. Low tides bring lots of birds. High tide was a family of river otters. Right outside the cute town of Waldport so handy but quiet and well run."
"This marina is beautiful, clean and quiet. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Easy access to crab cleaning stations, quiet hours and easy access to the spots."
"Great Park. Good water, Wi fi, showers. Scenery is beautiful. Town is a short walk away. Waldport is a nice, walkable town with lots of choices for different foods. The park staff will make you happy you stayed here."
"We just had the best day ever!!! What a wonderful place. Merlin got us all set up with a boat, crab pots, and bait and was so nice and helpful. We caught lots of crabs and had the most amazing time. Dave checked us out and showed us how to clean up our crab. I can’t wait to come back. Seriously totally worth the drive out from Portland."
"We stayed in the dry camping area for the weekend, and the waterfront views were amazing. Friendly staff, very clean, accommodating, spacious and kid friendly. Our group enjoyed a fun day of crabbing then relaxed fireside while watching the beautiful views. There are many things to keep you busy at the park but it is also located to many nearby attractions if you feel like adventuring! We can't wait to go back."
"Great place to camp. Big, clean and amazing customer service. Everything you can ask for from an RV Park. If you're going to the coast I definitely recommend staying here."
"This is our first "RV" park. We weren't disappointed! Very clean and quiet. Laundry room was immaculate. All staff/hosts were all very friendly. We rented a crabbing boat and had a great time. WIFI signal was strong and fast. We'll absolutely recommend this park. Thank you!"
"Fantastic place to go crabbing !! We took out 2 boats had great instruction from a knowledgeable crew and so helpful. We had a blast and would 100% recommend this place. Had a great time at McKinley’s. Thanks for a great experience."
"Grab your Grudens and head out crabbing with these guys any time you can! My buddies and I had an amazing time playing amateur deadliest catchall day. We had no idea what we were doing but the awesome folks at McKinley’s showed us the ropes and before we knew it we had our limit of crab! I just wish I lived closer so I could do it more often!"
