Coquille Myrtle Grove State Natural Site, State natural site near Myrtle Point, Oregon.
The natural site spans 7 acres along the South Fork Coquille River, featuring a collection of mature Oregon myrtle trees and a sandy riverside beach.
Save the Myrtlewoods organization donated this land to Oregon state in 1950 to protect the remaining stands of Oregon myrtle trees from logging operations.
The Oregon myrtle trees in the park represent a connection to regional woodworking traditions, as their hardwood has long served local craftsmen.
The site offers picnic tables, vault toilets, and a parking area, though visitors need to bring their own drinking water for their day activities.
The park contains a swimming hole with a rope swing where people can float in the gentle current of the Coquille River during summer months.
