About
Sunshine Bar Campground sits in a lush, forested setting along the Wild and Scenic Elk River, approximately 19 miles east of Port Orford via Forest Road 5325. The six primitive sites offer a peaceful escape with direct access to the river, popular for fishing and swimming. Each site includes a picnic table and fire pit, and the campground has two vault toilets. This is a free, first-come, first-served campground with no potable water or garbage service, so visitors must bring their own water and pack out all trash. The campground lies along the Wild Rivers Coast Scenic Bikeway, making it an appealing stop for cyclists touring the region. The Powers Ranger District manages the campground. Maximum stay is 14 days, quiet hours are 10 p.m. to 6 a.m., and dogs must be leashed. OHV/ATV use is prohibited within the campground. Campfires are allowed only in the developed fire pits.
