Harris Sate Park Campground, Coastal camping area in Brookings, United States
Harris State Park Campground sits along the Oregon coast and offers tent sites and RV spaces overlooking sandy beaches and rocky formations. The grounds spread across a wide coastal area with different lodging options to suit various camping preferences.
The area was named after George Scott Harris, a Scottish immigrant who settled on this coast in the 1870s following his military service. The site's name reflects the region's early settlement by European pioneers.
The indigenous communities of Oregon's south coast utilized these shorelines for centuries, gathering seafood and conducting traditional ceremonies near the ocean.
The campground is open year-round and offers various lodging options, including fully equipped and partially equipped sites as well as tent spots. Visitors should consider the season since weather and availability vary throughout the year.
Bird Island, visible from the campground, serves as a sanctuary for tufted puffins that return there each year to breed. This small island refuge offers visitors the unusual chance to watch seabirds in their natural habitat.
