About

Canal Creek Group Campground is tucked into the Siuslaw National Forest east of Waldport, Oregon, offering a peaceful retreat beneath Douglas fir and spruce trees. Canal Creek flows through the campground, dividing its two reservable group sites and providing opportunities for fishing, crawfishing, tubing, and swimming. The Canal Creek Group Site sits across the creek in a large open field with a picnic shelter, tables, and a central campfire circle. It accommodates up to 100 people and 20 vehicles but requires fording the creek to access, making RVs impractical. The Alsea Group Site is bordered by the creek and features 10 separate campsites arranged around a central dining area with tables and campfire circle, accommodating up to 50 people and 10 vehicles. RVs are welcome at this site. Vault toilets are available at both sites, but there is no potable water or electric hookups. Campers must bring adequate drinking water and pack out all trash. The old footbridge is no longer usable; visitors should exercise caution when crossing the creek.

Directions

From Waldport, Oregon, drive 7 miles east on Highway 34. Turn right on Canal Creek Road (Forest Service Road 3462) and continue 4 miles to the campground.
