Carl G. Washburne
Memorial State Park
Washburne is located on the east side of Highway 101 with a
buffer of native plants between you and the highway. The
campsites are spacious. There are several trails of varying
difficulty leading from the campsites to the beach, wildlife
viewing areas, and second-growth forests.
A walking trail leads you under the highway to a five-mile
sandy beach and a day-use area, where you'll find space to
watch whales, hunt agates, beachcomb, and picnic. Another
trail connects you to the Heceta Head trail, which you can use
to reach the historic Heceta Head lighthouse.
In the campground at night, you can hear the pounding surf.
There is a creek running through the campground, and elk have
been known to wander through. Wild rhododendrons bloom in
spring.
