Grayland harbor state park is a nice park on the ocean. Pacific beach state park is also right on the ocean (no full hook ups tho W/E only). Also research Pioneer Trails RV park in Anacortes, Wa. Grayland and Pacific beach are in Wa.

Have fun.

The North Cascades highway from Burlington across the mountains to Eastern Washington is one of the nicest drives in the US in my opinion.

Hi Smoore and WELCOME!!

There is SO much to see, in the PNW, it would help if you could tell us where you are coming from and how many days, you will have, to explore here.

Both Crater Lake NP and Mt. St. Helens NM are must sees. At least a full day and maybe two depending on weather. Driving OR's 101 is another must for ocean lovers, its an incredible coast line. Pickup the Oregon Coast Travel Guide, its free and usually with the tourist ingo. It is like a small version of the Alaskan Milepost and gives highlights along the coast by mile markers.

If you are in SW Oregon just north of Brookings is Harris Beach State Park. It is on highway 101 and on a hill just above the ocean. You can walk down to the beach. Pretty nice place for a visit.

Seal Rock camp ground on Oregon coast is one of our favorites

Check out Oregon State Parks Oregon State Parks and Recreation: Visiting State Parks - Find A Park
Also some very nice county parks here & there.
Must see - Crater Lake (watch weather), Columbia River Gorge, Mt Hood, Oregon Coast.
Enjoyable - Ashland, Oregon Gardens, Rogue River, Bend area, Astoria/Fort Stevens.
If you are a history buff it is fun to read about the Oregon Trail & Lewis & Clark Expedition. You can follow both easily.
Thousand Trails has lots of nice parks in Oregon & Washington if you are a member or if you bought a zone pass for the trip.
Would be happy to answer any questions we can about our great state of Oregon
