COOS BAY, Ore. — Wearing a sweatshirt against the seaside chill, I grilled fresh-caught red snapper then served my family of three at a picnic table. After dinner, I settled into an Adirondack chair around the campfire with a glass of local pinot noir before taking a hot shower and crawling into a plush bed in a heated Airstream.
Putting the pieces in motion for that kind of rewarding Oregon Coast vacation moment can be expensive and labor-intensive — buying or renting a recreational vehicle, hauling or driving it for hours, setting up camp, fetching firewood. But at Bay Point Landing, a luxury RV and camping resort that opened in 2020, a turnkey operation awaits.
The firewood and Adirondack chairs? Waiting at the sturdy stone fire pit. The propane grill for cooking fish? Delivered to our site. The pinot? From the general store. The deluxe Airstream? Already parked, and stocked like a hotel room, replete with a minibar.
For a long weekend getaway on the less-traveled but still scenic Southern Oregon Coast, the cabins and Airstreams available for rent at Bay Point Landing are attractive. And for RV owners, this upgraded spin on the traditional RV park is a winner.
