Loon Lake Lodge & RV Resort

Drove 12 hours from California with an rv. It was so worth it. Beautiful view by the lake. We were in space 14. Great fishing (caught 5 catfish) and they have a fish cleaning station. The restrooms and showers were nice and clean. The employees were helpful and friendly. My only complaints are the logging trucks that drive by early and woke us up every morning and that the marina opens late so you have to get your bait the night before and get your fishing license in Reedsport. It would be nice if you could get it all at the marina around 6am but they do not open until 11am and don’t sell fishing license. Overall, I was very happy with my stay there and would go back again.

I have gone to Loon Lake RV Park for the last 2 years but never thought to Unilocal about the deli. It’s a great place to eat so I want to Unilocal it out.
Rodney & Donna do a great job creating wonderful food, great service & a friendly atmosphere. They have a good menu for a small deli-​my favorites are Biscuits & Sausage Gravy, Cheeseburgers and Flatbread Pizzas-​Yum!
The deli is really great to have this as an option for when you are not in the mood to cook after a day on the water or for people just coming up for the day. Eat overlooking the lake for the beautiful view or inside chatting with the staff.

Just returned from a big family camping trip. We stayed in Roadside Group Site #70 (supposedly «highly desirable, great for families») but it is literally right on the highway (as is the other group site, but it’s up the cliff vs. down). We had small children and we couldn’t relax the entire time. Also much smaller than we were told, had to be very creative to fit tents. All the kids got stung by bees at the site, supposedly they sprayed while we were gone but the bees remained. Asked about a refund and it was clear that was not happening.
The beach area is ridiculous. Small and overcrowded with no tables or shade. Thank goodness we had a boat and accessed the beach area on the state campgrounds across the lake.
Don’t be deceived. This picturesque paradise is a trailer park disguised by a nice Lodge area and a few nice Jet Skis you can rent.

We went here with a big group of people and kids. This was our first time going here and we all drove 3.5 hours to this destination. We read and heard great reviews about loon lake and we were all so excited to check it out. My friend booked the place and had repeatedly told the scheduler we had kids and needed a safe campsite for them. After booking the place; she called them back to ask about the weather because we saw the forecast and it appeared to be cold the time we planned on going. She had to call them 5 times throughout the day before they finally picked up her phone call. They said the weather was going to be in the 80s… despite the forecast saying 60s. She also said we’d be about ¼ mile away from the lake. After we arrived on Friday and checked in the lady said the lake was now ½ mile away from the campsite. Once we arrived at our campsite #70; we immediately wanted to leave. The site was right off the busy road and steep hill side on two sides of the campsite. The site was clearly unsafe for our kids. After attempting to find another spot, we decided to stay and try it out. We set everything up and decided to check out the lake. Once we arrived there. again we were disappointed; the water was full on seaweed and it smelled like PEE! Everything was so crowded with tents and lots of ppl. It looked nothing like the pictures. We were there for about an hour and left because it was so nasty. The next day the weather was overcast and 60 degree. We’ve had it… none of us were having a good time so we packed up and left. We WILL NEVER GO BACK AND WILL TELL EVERYONE WHAT A TRASHY PLACE THIS IS. To top it off we had horrible customer service; they would not refund our second night and they were very deceiving. A very huge disappointment!

We stayed 2 nights in a cozy cabin which was a great cabin: clean, everything worked including the AC, décor was up to date, & plenty of space for two. As for the grounds, it was somewhat displeasing. We started our first day with a walk to the lodge from the cabins and wanted to find a trail to hike or walk. When we inquired at the lodge they couldn’t tell us anything about the trails around. We did take the only trail path we saw on our way to the lodge which was marked by a sign and found it went through someone’s ranch. One of the groundskeepers seemed to follow us up there on his ATV and didn’t say anything helpful about hiking that trail except that it went through the neighbors place. We also asked the staff if there was a place we could fish that would be good and most didn’t have any info and one person said off the dock/​swimming area. Thus we felt no one was really that helpful. Loon Lake does have a lot of potential, if the staff could highlight the opportunities. This lake is located in such a great place and the staff should be jazzed about it with the guests rather than act like it was just another mediocre place.

We’ve stayed at Loon Lake twice for family reunions. Three years ago we stayed in their Deluxe Cabins. They are small but adequate. The weather was perfect. The public restrooms/​showers were kept clean and they have laundry facilities which is really nice! Things were a bit run down, I noticed, but not a bad place.
We just returned from a trip there where we stayed in the Premium Cottages, specifically, we stayed in Cabin 3 which is a stand alone. These were a huge step up from the Deluxe Cabins. Very nice, full amenities (even shampoo, soap, etc.), tons of towels, pillows, blankets, pots, pans, toaster, full fridge/​freezer, range, etc. Lots of room and space. They have upgraded their internet which barely worked three years ago. They’ve added yurts and some more cabins. They appeared to be doing a lot of digging and had materials stacked everywhere so it looked like they had even more stuff they were adding. I’m assuming they were behind as the weather had been and was terrible the entire time. We picked a bad week! We saw tons of deer, including a fawn who «played» with our 2 year old by playing peek-​a-​boo and prancing around. Cool stuff.
The one big downside is that a road runs right through the campground, dividing the cabins and part of the RV spots from the beach and the other part of the RV park. This road is frequently traveled by logging trucks. We have 4 small children and the front door of the cabin was literally 6 feet away from the road. We ended up using the back door of the cabin which helped, but there is also a steep ditch right there that gave us some heart attacks with our very youngest. There is almost no traffic at night though, and is fairly light during the day so its not a huge noise disturbance. Another downside is that the lake is sea-​weedy and cloudy. Didn’t bother the kids, but not for me.
The workers that ran the dock area are super nice and gave us poles and bait for free. We didn’t catch anything good from the docks, but it was fun to catch and release.
We decided to leave a day early and they did not charge us for the night we didn’t use, which I thought was very generous given it was a Friday night and they missed out renting that cabin for a weekend.
Overall it was a better experience than 3 years ago and we may come back again.

I was highly disappointed in loon lake rv resort! This place is stuck in the 60’s! 2 yurts a part from anything! Full porta potty! I will not be returning nor will I recommend it!

My Dad called me a few months ago and asked if I would meet him and my Mom for a little get away at a place called Loon Lake. They would bring their RV and I would stay in a Cabin, Cottage, or Motel Room.
To get there I took drove from Portland to Lincoln City and then down the coast to Reedsport, where I turned east for about 14 miles to reach the lake. Just before reaching Loon Lake, I passed an Elk area and was treated to an up close and personal view of a herd of bucks enjoying their dinner. Another mile or so up the road was the female herd with some young, including some immature bucks.
Upon arrival I was pleasantly surprised by the Motel Room that greeted me, very clean, it did not smell of smoke as I had read it would in some Tripadvisor reviews. It had big windows with screens to keep flying things out as well as air conditioning and heat. It also had a small fridge, microwave, coffee maker, Dish TV with a DVD player and a copy of OPB’s Oregon Splendor. Through sliding glass doors in the back of the room there was a deck with chairs and a table among the pines.
The RV site my parents were in was well maintained, clean, easy to pull in and out of, with a picnic table and fire pit as well as all of the hookups. It was pretty barren as far as natural splendor, no trees, and no grass, just dirt, gravel and weeds, but was really close to the Marina, bathrooms, laundry and shower. The tent camping was more private and more wooded. They also have some nice large group camping areas that are fairly private.
The first day, we decided it would be nice to just hang out on the lake and catch up, so we went to the marina to rent a boat. The guy who runs the Marina showed up sometime after 11am even though the sign said the hours were 10 — 6. We opted for a pontoon boat, so we could really relax, it was a wise decision, we put-​put-​putted twice around the perimeter of the lake checking out the recreation areas, swimming areas, and the lake houses, many of which can only be reached by boat.
The rest of the time we just floated around admiring the scenery. We spotted lots of fish and birds, both water fowl and birds of prey. We also discovered a wasps nest hanging in a tree at the edge of the shoreline.
We ate one dinner and one breakfast at the lodge, the food was tasty and well priced, our table had ringside seating for the deer that they feed each day. The staff is super friendly and helpful.
I would recommend this place as a good getaway for a family or group of friends, who like to jet ski, fish, put-​put around or speed around a small but beautiful natural lake.

Went to Loon Lake RV resort for a quick getaway staying at one of the sites above the marina. The resort area needs a lot of work to be worthy of staying again. The marina and docks are shabby. The lodge is way overpriced and understocked. There were tame deer for the kids to feed but overall the place is lacking the luster. Now the amazing thing was meeting Ellen, a former owner of loon lake who sold it in 79 but still lives above RV park. She is 63 and her house is open for visitors and she has amazing stuff, stories, life adventures and lives like we all should live every day of our lives. That was worth the visit alone. But next time I will be visiting Ellen, not loon lake.

I went to Loon Lake for a summer getaway with my girlfriend and some of her family. We drove from the Eugene Airport and stopped by Costco for food for the trip. It takes a little over an hour to reach the resort. We stopped at the Lodge and were pleasantly surprised to see an almost tame deer walking around that would eat oats from your hand supplied by the staff.
The first night we stayed in the hotel section of the resort. The king-​sized bed was nice & comfortable and there was a nice view of the lake from the deck. The second night we stayed in a cabin by the r.v. and marina area. This was perfect with a fire pit and bbq grill! We all made smores at night and even did some night fishing. (We got skunked)
The lake was nice and warm and we rented some jet-ski’s and had a great time riding around the lake. We also rented a canoe which we used to paddle around and did some more fishing. We caught a bunch of fish, but none over 1 lb.
Overall, this is a great place to stay for a fun time in a beautiful part of the Oregon Coast.

I just finished a weekend with friends at Loon Lake Lodge’s rental house.
The community has a fireworks show on the lake on July 4^th. We had a PERFECT view of the fireworks from the deck of this house.
Excellent accommodations! The staff are friendly and helpful.
The only complaint would be the Internet connection did not work. However, I go there to get AWAY from the outside world. :P
Unfortunately I forgot to tell them the Internet connection was not working. I hope they read this.

We stayed at the lakefront house in the resort. The house had a sweeping deck overlooking the very scenic Loon Lake. House was nicely furnished. We rented jet skis and other watercraft. We had a great weekend and will return.
