Amazing campground just minutes from everything. Walk to the beach or lake. Very quiet and peaceful atmosphere. I had a view of the lake and ocean!

Boice Cope Park for Travel Trailer
Review by Carl on 11/12/23, 1:41 PM
Really nice park, out of the way in a nice way. While a bit close together sites, it is very quiet. The only noise is the sound of the ocean waves at night with ZERO traffic noise. The reservation confirmation does not appear to allow you to pick sites, but we were happy with where we were automatically assigned
Loved it!
Review by Brenda on 10/24/23, 9:21 AM
This a a little jem near the ocean and river. The sound of the ocean is beautiful and the park is well kept. We enjoyed our two days. We only wished the Hughes House was open but it closed for tours in September. We will return again. ðÂÂÂ

We found this place 4 years ago and we return every year. It is small, quiet, listening to the sound of the ocean all day and night is heavenly. Altho the facility is older, it is well maintained. The camp host is great, very friendly and helpful. It is a nice walk to both Floras Lake and the ocean - truly the best of both worlds. We will return next year again, as we have fir 4 years. It does get crowded in tge summer and since we are retired we are lucky andcable to go in tge quieter times. Lake Floras is known for wind surfing so if you don't like wind, that would be a clue this is not the place fir you!
Review of Boice Cope campground.
Review by Allan on 10/5/23, 10:48 PM
We stayed with a 38 foot diesel pusher towing a car. We found the campground easy to find and easy to maneuver into and out of. The setting is very peaceful with the sound of waves lulling you to sleep. We would definitely stay again. We planned only a one night stay and ended up staying the second night.
Nice Quiet County Park
Review by Johnnie XXXXX on 9/26/23, 1:20 PM
My review is based off traveling 7 months a year in a 45 foot class A Motorhome with a tow, visiting about 400 parks in the last 10 years. We inserted this park as part of our plan this year for 3 days to just check out the area. Upon arrival my first thought driving up to the gate was will my rig fit here? They advertise 45 foot spaces and actually the do have some sites that are 45 to 55 feet long but in my opinion that didn't, doesn't make it a good site for a bigger rig. We squeezed into our site and hooked up with little effort as the site was basically level. Generally while most sites have space between them they are still small for the intended use. Note, a lot of low / stray branches to scratch the tops or sides of your rig so be careful. The lake here is very popular with sail borders and Kite boarders. Most of the people we saw staying here overnight were seniors. Also each night I saw 2-4 people sleeping in their cars overnight (not so sure they were paying customers// but definitely not homeless people). The beach is a short walk (1/4 mile) and you can hear the sound in the campground. The have restrooms, showers, laundry room, and fire wood available here. We had good 50 amp power, water was fine and I didn't use the dump station. The majority of people here had a dog, so you decide if that is good or bad. Host was friendly and helpful. My iPhone 13 on Verizon was 1-2 bars and very slow, not useful for a hot spot. Satellite service will likely work in most but not all sites. Also note Wind blows a lot here!!!! Its a nice area and super quiet when we visited in the end of September, but I probably won't stay here again as there's lots of other small campgrounds to explore up and down the coast and this one is not special. Oh, also good star gazing as the sky is pretty dark in this area.
my stay
Review by will on 9/15/23, 2:20 PM
The camp site should have been marked reserved, but was not. I had to move after one night, but the camp host got some people to move me 3 spots over which was great.

Labor Day Weekend
Review by Steve & B on 9/7/23, 7:45 AM
With a 40' motor home the back-in was a little tight but doable. Site was level and the utilities worked fine. Bathrooms & showers are dated but very clean and stocked. Laundry also clean. Hosts were friendly and kept up with a full park (Labor Day weekend). Walk to the Ocean via the lake was kind of hard because of the loose sand but well worth it. Yes, had to have a Hot Dog from the market and it was good.
Love!
Review by The Blackwells on 9/3/23, 10:27 AM
We have been returning to this park for 8 years. This place is so very special. The park hosts were fantastic. (And it hasnâÂÂt always been that way). The facilities were clean, and fresh, cleaned daily. The grounds are well maintained, and the arrangement of sites is great. A big thanks for all the hard work, and for keeping our favorite play ground nice. We really appreciate it!
Unusual shell sand
Review by Glover on 8/31/23, 7:42 AM
Two complaints: 1st, the vents in both showers are clogged with paint; and 2nd, there are way too many unleashed dogs, with many of them never being leashed. This venue is unique in Oregon, and many board sailors take full advantage... very entertaining to observe. After a long half mile walk from the campground, the surfperch fishing is some of the best Oregon has to offer. Note that cell phone service is marginal, and the offered WiFi service is often sketchy.
Tent site 42 is the worst of the tent sites.
Review by Nala Onigirrot on 8/27/23, 11:07 PM
Site 42 is located directly at the intersection of the entrance and exit roads of the campground. The entry and exit roads meet at that point and create a very short and narrow arrow-head shaped space. That space is just two feet off the pavement and is barely large enough for a three-person tent. Additionally, if sites 41 and 43 are occupied, then there is no place to park your car other than at the parking area 100 yards to the south.

Nice spot
Review by Mac on 8/25/23, 10:09 AM
Itâs very nice campground right on Lake Floras, with a short hike to the beach. It was very crowded when we were there, lots of wind surfers, etc. The campground host was excellent. The one negative is the lack of bathroom facilities. One bathroom with 2 stalls in each side is not adequate for this size of a campground. Unless you have a camper with a bathroom then you donât have a worry about it.

Great coastal spot
Review by Ken on 8/24/23, 11:41 AM
We stayed here 2 nights on our way down the coast. Took a nice long hike down the beach to the cliffs, then back through the woods along the Oregon Coastal Trail. Got to see the kite boarders and foil windsurfers as they flew by close to shore on Floras Lake. Very entertaining. Campground is basic but well maintained and the people were friendly. Great sunsets. Note that it does get windy there.
Great Boice Cope Park
Review by Sammysmtnmama on 8/18/23, 12:22 AM
I tried to give Boice cope park 5 stars and it came back with 4 - so Iâm resubmitting my review - againâ¦.. sorry.
Great campground
Review by Sammysmtnmama on 8/18/23, 12:15 AM
Boice cope park is a great campgound. It is nice to have the big play area for kids as well as adults - we played Bocce ball, and there are horse shoe pits there as well. Watching the sunsets are nice also. I also loved being able to do a quick load of laundry there as well- although the change machine runs out of quarters weekly. The camp hosts are very nice and helpful also! And Amy at the county who worked on reservations was above and beyond helpful in helping us to get a reservation without having to change our spot several times during our stay. And having Floras Lake so close by to play on is a bonus. Would definitely like to rerurn!

Kayaking New River
Review by Ted on 8/13/23, 9:14 PM
The most peaceful campsite ever, we will return! A group of us decided to float the New River after seeing the write up posted on the kiosk located by the boat ramp. It would have been helpful to have additional information noted about this 'adventure'. We discovered that it is best to start this float from the North and have the wind push you along this North flowing river. We launched just outside of the New River Nature Center. There was a short jaunt to the boat launch as the gate was closed not allowing us to take our kayaks to the rivers edge ( this is due to it being the Snowy Plover nesting season). Nice 8 mile, 5 hour trip. Sunscreen, sunhat, sunglasses, aqua socks and water are a must! Finding the Flores Lake outlet stream at the bridge was tricky and we had to carry our kayaks a short distance through the mud from New River. There are TWO beaver dams that you are unable to go around and you must scale.

One of the quietest campgrounds we've stayed at! Camp host was super friendly and helpful. Perfect place for wind sports, easy access to lake and ocean. Planning a return trip now!

Boice trip
Review by Ron on 8/3/23, 8:36 PM
Bathrooms not cleaned Thursday till Sunday July 30th restocked but sink, floor, mirrors and lights were out. Grounds needed better maintenance little mowing and no weed eating. Over 15 years of visiting seems up and down. Park host non existing and when you found one they keep stating they have not been informed of what to do. Surfers that parked over by the corner site and 12 thru 18 by the gate to kite school were very obnoxious rude blocked entrance to couple of the sites in corner walked thru our sites not cool

Infrastructure needs
Review by Timmy on 7/31/23, 11:45 AM
They are putting in new amenities but need to prioritize maintaining the existing infrastructure. Fences around the campsite are rotting and broken down creating a hazard. The stairs to the boat launch are old, and unstable. They put a child play structure 20 feet away from the rv dump. Seriously!?!

This Park Has It All
Review by RD on 7/18/23, 2:24 AM
This park is a great location for outdoor activities. Hiking, biking, wind sports, swimming, SUPing, exploring the beach and more. The camp is well run by the friendly hosts. The bathrooms are clean and the park is well maintained. It is one of the most beautiful destinations I have been to and have been coming here every summer for the last ten years. My few complaints are the internet although strong, cuts in and out. Also the lake side sites are away from the WAP so they have no signal. This was very frustrating especially because wifi was advertised. The path way to the lake has been improved but it could use a little more. The county took the time to make a boardwalk to not walk in the mud but the boards are moving around and could be an ankle breaker. A more permanent walk would be nice for safety. I am told by several campers that they cannot find the pay station. Either relocating it or signs pointing to it would help. The reservation system is not wind sports friendly. I spoke with people who lost hundreds of dollars because of cancellations due to lack of wind for the sport they enjoy. Wind lovers make up about 70% of the park and it should be friendly to those folks who make up most of the park's business. Aside from a few complaints I would highly recommend this camp to anyone.
Wind chasers blow
Review by Steve on 7/17/23, 3:20 PM
On the road for 40 days. Worst park ever! Wind surfers are bullies. Use the park for more than 14 days. In a row. Move from spot to spot I reserve a spot for 2 nights got switched out of my spot to accomadste a surfer only to be harassed by 3 other surfers on being in there spot and when I was leaving so they could move into my spot. Also on check in my spot was still occupied after the check oiut time. Host saysâ oh they are surfing and are just moving to another spot. Well his spot was the steeet for Boondocking which he could have moved there before the wind surfing seeing this group doesnâÂÂt do anything early. Lazy Bulllies. In a park that is run terrible from the Reservation system yo the misleading times on the web for check in and out And a host and security for a small park that are useless Especially when campers just bang on your rig and Yrlll your in my spot and you are not. Especially when the one right next to me is open. Worst park in the whole state. When the wind bullies are in town

Review by K Joy on 7/12/23, 3:50 PM
What a hidden gem! I was nervous reserving the site unseen, as the map does not do the site justice. Though there is not much privacy, I had zero complaints, as the grounds were beautiful and well shaded, the bathroom well kept, quiet and friendly campers and the location next to the lake and ocean absolutely perfect! We had a lucky low wind day, but I'm not a wind sport person, so good on me. It was perfect!
What a nice park!
Review by Mid-June vacation on 6/24/23, 10:05 AM
Our 11-person family group camped three nights at Boice-Cope County Park in mid-June, 2023. The weather was a bit nippy and the wind somewhat blustery, but we found the camp host and other campers very friendly and helpful, and we loved the facilities. We noted that the wind was less severe on the side of the camping loop away from Floras Lake, and would opt for that side the next time we come. The bathrooms and showers were clean and well-maintained. The RV hookups were good. The paved parking pads were long enough and wide enough to accommodate multiple vehicles. The nice grassy area in the middle of the campground was a little uneven for walking, but was mowed and well-maintained. We were disappointed that the RV waste dump was out of order during our stay. The camp host apologized and said a service call had been made, but that the septic tank pumping company hadn't responded.
County needs to wake up
Review by Wsr M on 6/24/23, 1:24 AM
Dump station out of order for days is unacceptable. New site numbering appears to have been created by someone that had no clue. Site numbers on posts looks temporary & tacky. (They are all crooked) Maintenance & trimming of grass around sites is lacking. Tables are years past the need for paint.
Keep it natural
Review by Paphman on 6/21/23, 1:11 PM
I have been coming to Floras Lake for years. This year I am happy to see they are letting the vegetation grow back between the camp sites along the west side. This creates a much more aesthetic experience for those of us who enjoy a little privacy and respite from the wind that these sites create. I hope the county continues to allow the natural vegetation to return, but they need to make an effort to control the English Ivy (noxious weed). It is choking out some of the trees. Thank you
Fabulous Campground
Review by Cheryl on 5/31/23, 3:28 PM
We loved this campground. Very pet friendly and nice RV neighbors. The only concern we had was some of the tent campers towards the front of the campground looked as if they were homeless and taking refuge while they could. The camp hosts were awesome though. Very nice and checked on everyone in the campground daily. I would definitely recommend for anyone that is going through the area. The coast is breathtaking and it's only a short walk to enjoy.
Tent camping
Review by Traveler on 5/17/23, 2:55 PM
The host Wayne & Debbie are amazing. Tent site not very private but for the amenities, price, & cleanliness - I am giving it 5 stars. After being at another campsite for 2 nights with only sound of highway traffic, I miss not being at Floras Lake. The sunset is beautiful and the access to beach and miles of walking is a treat.
love this campground
Review by Regular wind camper on 10/29/22, 5:14 PM
Winter camping at Boice Cope is a wonderful experience, not crowded the weather is a bit fickle but a foggy AM means a windy afternoon. And the new winter rates are awesome, $20 for hookups? Fabulous! I noticed the campground got a real cleanup, painting etc. Looks amazing. Nice to see the camp host, Meghan, is back on her own, the place is always spotless, and she interacts so well with the different types of people that come here. The summer host they had on was never around to help and when she was around she was a bit annoying and not helpful, if you had a question she would just send you to Meghan anyway. Regardless, we camp there at least once a month year round to get some lake time. My only complaint is the bench from the ladies room is gone. How are we to get out of our wet suits if we can't sit down, I don't think a picnic table is the proper place to do this and inside our RV is a big no go. The smell of wet neoprene never goes away. Please put the bench back.

Review by Bill & Dianna on 10/26/22, 5:14 PM
Great Park close to the beach, quite, and relaxing. We stayed three nights mid October. Weather was overcast with sun breaks and a light to no breeze. We visited the Bandon boardwalk area and walked around Floras Lake to the beach. The camp host was extremely nice and welcoming. Services were clean and the dump station was very clean and convenient. Definitely a place to visit.

Looks like the review system shows all reviews as 4 stars even though you select the 5 stars rating when writing your review. Anyhow, we had another great stay at Boice Cope. It's a hidden gem, clean, and the perfect staging area for your favorite wind sport. Thanks to the camp hosts Meaghan and Leslie for being so helpful!

Meaghan and Leslie are the best hosts
Review by Frequent camper on 10/1/22, 11:59 PM
I've been camping at Boice Cope Park for several years. Meaghan and Leslie are the best hosts by far. They are always available and very responsive. The bathrooms and showers are always clean and well maintained. The wifi access is much better now than previously and it's a pleasure to stay at this unique spot. The camp spots are well maintained as well.
Great County Park
Review by Nev on 9/29/22, 4:55 PM
I've camped at this campground three Septembers in a row and hope to go back. This is a clean and well run Curry County Campground on Floras Lake just a short walk from a lonely and wild stretch of beach; at least in September you can walk for miles and see a handful of people and the surf has always been impressive here. Some of the campsites are close to each other but overall I've really enjoyed staying here and the hosts have been friendly and helpful, the bathrooms and showers clean, and overall an enjoyable place to camp.Â
best out of 7
Review by monthly camper on 9/26/22, 1:49 PM
I camped at 7 diffident campgrounds, State and County, this year and Boice Cope has the cleanest bathrooms and showers. The camp host does an excellent job and fits in with the vibe of this campground. I come back as often as I can. P.S. your are also one of the most expensive at $32 per night!!
Oldie But Goodie
Review by Glover on 9/24/22, 8:09 AM
We particularly enjoy the openness of the sites, but yet not too crowded. And considering the difficulty in obtaining volunteer camp hosts, Meaghan is a jewel. The location is a winner! I do suggest that when help becomes available, Curry ups its maintenance game including re-opening the upper air vents in the showers.
Beautiful sunsets
Review by S n L Travelers on 9/21/22, 10:12 AM
Loved this campground and the camp host, Meagan, is great. Water and electric hook -ups and a dump station on site. Bathrooms are clean and there is also laundry available. The campground looks out over Floras Lake where you can watch wind surfers and enjoy beautiful sunsets. A short walk to the beach. A short drive to Bandon for a beautiful beach and charming old town.
