Comment

Snug Harbor RV Park is located right on the bay with just 10 RV only camp spots.  Fog is common in this area.  It's a cozy spot located right in downtown Charleston near Coos Bay.  There are places to eat just across the street.  Nearby is the Charleston Marina where you will find boat slips and a launch ramp.  There is also a fish market.  Campbase estimates that big rigs up to 35 feet can be accommodated in some spots.  Pets were allowed.  The park does not appear to have a web site or email address.  Call the park directly for reservations.  Cellular service was good in the area.  

This campground may have mosquitoes.  Depending on the time of year, they can be quite a nuisance.  Campbase recommends a mosquito mesh hat, insect repellent, and a mosquito net awning to sit in.  If mosquitoes bother you, these items are essential for this location.
