beach looking northStorm Season on the NW Oregon Coast

November through February is storm season on the NW Oregon Coast. The sight of powerful storm-driven waves pounding the coast is an awesome sight to behold. Listen to the wind howl while you relax by the fireside. Explore misty forest trails. Walk the beach and keep a lookout for treasures washed ashore by recent storms.

Book your group visit today! Camp Magruder offers a 20% "Storm Season Discount" from standard rates for new bookings during the months of November, December, January, and February.
