Kelly's Brighton Marina & Campground

I’ve been coming here with friends and family for a long time and it is an obligatory stop on the coast for me. We typically rent a boat and crab each year, but I also like to go here and simply buy crab and clams and sit out on their picnic benches or in the covered area, depending upon the weather, and enjoy the seafood without working for it! Order Dungeness crab (duh) and clams. I’m not a fan of their oysters. if you are on the Northern Oregon coast, this should definitely be on your list.

This my fiance and I’s second trip to Kelly’s, we had so much fun! We are newer to crabbing and the staff member Ammon helped us out so much with some tips and tricks and they definitely helped!! The atmosphere is so awesome there. We will be coming back for years to come!

Wow, this is our 1st time to visit this place - we're diehard crab lovers. A coworker of my hubby highly recommended the place. We place our order for 2 crabs to eat. A wonderful day took our order & ready in 20 minutes and we devour them within the same time. Looking forward to coming back & trying other seafood.

This place has such a fun vibe. Crabbing off the dock is a blast! Recommend getting here early if you want any keepers. We had all females so we lucked out on catching our lunch. But, they have crab to purchase by the pound and will steam it up within 20 minutes. All staff is friendly and helpful. Definitely recommend this spot!

Great spot. We visited on a very busy Saturday, and the staff did a great job of helping out with camping and RV spots. We went out in a buddy’s boat for a few hours and caught 8 keepers! Came back and hung out and cooked up a seafood boil. We were lucky to hear the scenic railroad train heading up to Wheeler, and headed over to the tracks to watch it steam by. Fun times!

Crabbed off the dock renting crab pots. The staff was super helpful and excited for us. Had our six year-old and four-year-old with us, great places to sit while we waited to pull in our pots. The kids loved, seeing all the crabs, threw back a lot, but got two keepers after two hours. They were life fest for the kids for free, great food. They cooked and showed us how to clean our crabs. I would highly recommend this with kids who are willing to try seafood. If anyone in the group is not a fantasy food, probably not a great place. There are lots of places to sit and look at the beautiful view.

My brother hooked up his RV here and I was lucky enough to come along for the trip. 🏕️ they have lots of camping spaces and they had electric & water hookups, each hookup spot had a picnic table and fire pit, too. 🔥I feel like I got the full experience here; we went out on the boat crabbing.. flooded our engine and called them out to help us, and despite the dense fog we were saved. 🚤 caught 11 crabs from the boat but only one viable male. he was delicious. got even more from the dock the next day, but didn't have anything to keep 🦀 Bought a wood bundle dor $6 🪵and visited the shop a dozen times. nice selection of local beers and cider 🍏 and they have a lot of odds and ends to help if you forgot something. of course plenty of shirts, sweatshirts and jackets up to XXXL. The staff were friendly and attentive. Idk what the two guys in the store were named but they were solid, I recognized Emily 👩 from their website (missing a lot of photos) and she was great, she was the one who cleaned our crab. The bathrooms are more modern and clean than you'd expect 🚻 though I didn't use the coin op shower since we had the camper. Probably my favorite thing in the store was the $2 coffee ☕ it was very welcome in the cold morning. The marina isn't far from Rockaway either so you can goto the beach, do some shopping and enjoy the restaurants just a short drive away 🚘 Not alot else to say, the peaceful atmosphere, oregon coast weather, and friendly staff was just the sort of reset my depressed mind needed. Plus my shellfish license is good for the rest of the year so who knows, maybe I'll do more crabbing before then 😵‍💫

There’s nothing like eating Dungeness crab on the Oregon coast! Kelly’s Marina offers a truly unique experience — you can catch your own crab from a boat or simply enjoy fresh seafood right off the dock. We chose to eat at the dock, and it was our first time visiting. The crab was incredibly fresh and delicious — definitely a splurge, but worth it for the quality and experience. The staff were super friendly and helpful, making the whole visit even more enjoyable. This was such a memorable way to enjoy the coast, and we’ll definitely be coming back!

Quick update: Kelley's now have new owners, Colin and wife. They kept the vibe the same and added some upgrades. The experience is even better now. I love having fresh seafood cooked on site; boiled in salt water and dipped in butter sauce or cocktail sauce or hot sauce or sriracha (when I remember to bring my own) The service is great; staff is always friendly and helpful. The place is clean with plenty of tables and an awesome fire pit. On a sunny day, it is great to enjoy the warm freshly cooked seafood next to the fire pit, which is my favorite. Even on a cooler day, it is comfortable to be on the deck next to the fire pit. It can get busy in the summer or during crabbing season but we never had problems finding a table. Fresh seafood, ocean views and fire pit! All is good!

Campground, crabbing at dock, by boat, or you can just buy them. Order at the shack, pay inside the store. It has all the fixings and tools for crab, plus mixers, snacks, and some merch. "I caught crabs at Kelly's Marina" Price was $17.99 per pound when we visited and so it was about $60 for 2 crabs.

This was an amazing experience and fantastic way to spend the day! We ordered fresh cooked crab although we didn't catch it ourselves it was so fun! The crab was delicious and we set up a picnic of our own and looked over the water with a beautiful ambiance. The service to order and eat is super easy if you just want some fresh crab!

Wow, what a lot of fun! We were in the mood for crab, even the kid who is so adorable. She never had crab in her life but she said "I am really in the mood for crab today." The wife found this place on Yelp and off we went. This place is nothing special in terms of ambiance. It's easy to miss off the highway so have your eyes open. "Rustic" and "modest" do not do justice. To condense the story: you park, you find where to order, and you order. Ordering consists of picking the number of live crabs you want, plus if you want any clams or oysters. They give you a metal board with your order and you go inside the nearby store to pay. Inside you add lemon and butter to your bill if desired. There are drinks as well. The "restaurant" offers only seafood. Some of the pictures on Yelp showed corn and other sides but in August 2025 there was only seafood. The young girl who takes your order is really nice and very patience, even for neophytes like us who had no idea what to do. Be sure to add a good tip when you pay, these girls work hard! After you pay, you return your metal "receipt" and they cook your seafood and clean whatever you ordered. They call your name and you get a big metal tray with your food. Find a picnic table and proceed to feast! it's a lot of work, but really fun. Messy, time-consuming, but very fun. Adding to the fun is the pier. There were people crabbing, something I used to do as a teenager in Oregon. Such memories. The kid took our bits of crab and fed the seagulls, She had such a great time feeding the birds, hanging out with the crabbers, and generally running around the docks. A great experience all the way around. Oh, and the crab is exquisitely sweet. It does not get any fresher than picking your live crab and a few minutes later having it served to you piping hot. In August 2025, we paid $98 for 3 crabs, 6 oysters and 2 soda drinks. Plus a lemon and butter. Tip is extra. The oyster are steamed. They were huge and had really good flavor. The price is much, much less than you would pay in a restaurant.

When you think of fishermen, piers, coastal catches, and eating straight from the ocean Kelly's delivers! It was so authentic! They serve the seafood raw or steamed. If you order oysters raw, you'll have to shuck them yourself. Fortunately a kind soul shucked mine for me. The crab was delicious and the raw and steamed oysters were amazing! I'd definitely return!

Pricey...but the Bright-on side is that the crab is live fresh and eating outside with the serene view of the Nehalum River makes an enjoyable coastal trip. Amenities ~ overnight RV or tent stay, showers & bathrooms, fire pit with primitive Adirondack chairs. The real draw is the jon boat rentals to cruise the waters and catch your crab. Service ~ meh. For the amount of $$$ you drop, minimally a smile would be expected. Prompted for a tip when purchasing packaged beer that you pick from the cooler and snacks is not cool. Apathetic thank you from the counter after you pay. Resident cats play charm and purr right up next to you hoping for a handout ;)

The food at Kelly's looked great, but my friend and I didn't eat there since we brought our food for our two-night camping trip. We rented an affordable campsite located right on the bay. The service was good, and everyone was polite. We had my friend's boat, so we didn't need to rent one, but we saw many others doing so. The ambiance was lovely, and we thoroughly enjoyed our campsite. The crab derby happened during our stay, adding to the overall experience. It was crowded because of the festival, but everyone was having a great time. I would most definitely stay again.

Such a fun experience! Definitely go in the morning or later in the day for the male crabs. Midday was a miss unfortunately. But it was so relaxing and the employees were so helpful and informative. Bring extra clothes for afterwards and sunscreen!

In the area for a vacation and was intrigued by the Yelp reviews. You can go out on boats, crab off the docks, camp, pick your crabs and they cook them - so many options! We came on a warm weekend and the place was busy. The staff was very helpful and explained how everything worked. We chose to pick our crab and have them cooked for us. We ordered 3 crabs and 6 cooked oysters. We were given a tablet with our order and sent inside to pay. Inside was a small market that also had butter and cocktail sauce in premade packages. Once we paid we went back outside and our food was cooked. Lots of outside table both in sun and shade were available. Food comes out with crabs cleaned on a large tray. Crab crackers were readily available and we went to work. The crab meat was SO fresh, tender and flavorful. The oysters were great as well. This place is pretty expensive but the freshness and quality of food made it worth it.

There's nothing like eating Dungeness crab on the Oregon coast! Kelly's Marina offers a truly unique experience -- you can catch your own crab from a boat or simply enjoy fresh seafood right off the dock. We chose to eat at the dock, and it was our first time visiting. The crab was incredibly fresh and delicious -- definitely a splurge, but worth it for the quality and experience. The staff were super friendly and helpful, making the whole visit even more enjoyable. This was such a memorable way to enjoy the coast, and we'll definitely be coming back!

What a freaking GEM of a spot. We were driving from Northern California to Seattle and passed Kelly's and whipped in. We only had an hour before closing time, but rented a boat and ended up catching a handful of Dungeness crabs! They boil them up right there on the spot for you to eat on site. It's so awesome! Good vibes, good food, good fishing!

Happened upon Kelly's Marina during a railrider tour. We only had a few minutes so we didn't have enough time to enjoy some crab but will definitely be back. Wife wants to try out the crab legs. Unfortunately they don't have much else - seems like an opportunity to also have some crab chowder! Ambiance is nice along the water. Plentiful bathrooms and they have a store too.

This place is great. Everyone there was very friendly and happy to help and explain the rules of crabbing and the how-tos for boating. After a few hours of crabbing, we came in and feasted. They have a great little store with lots of hidden treasures. The clean bathrooms to freshen up after a fishy day were just what the doctor ordered!

I really want to keep this place a secret and all to myself, but I must give credit to everyone there, the way this place is set up and the location. Did RV camping, they had hot pay showers and a public restroom. I little market for fishing, crabbing, snacks and drinks. If you have little to no experience and wanted to try something new this place will teach you how to skipper a boat, crabbing using rings and clean your crab. The staff is super friendly super helpful and accommodating. We caught 11 Dungeness in' no time at all. Will definitely be back.

Such a fun atmosphere and such amazing seafood. Easily some of the best crab I've ever had. We weren't very impressed with the clams though they were super salty. Would recommend the crab tho! You don't even need butter.

We definitely appreciated the crab cookers explanation of how to order, nothing intuitive about the process and we were there for the first time. Our live crab was boiled to perfection, served with the "crab butter" in a small hotel hot tray pan on its own. We struggled eating the crab in shell with just our hand outside. No utensils were offered and no guidance given as to crab crackers were available. Fortunately these were not our first crabs and we made due. Discovered there were crab cracking devices available when we returned the tray, oops. Lots of picnic tables along the marina banks and plenty of fishing activity on the docks to keep us entertained. Should you want to enjoy live oysters be prepared to fork over cash for an oyster knife or bing your own. Boiled oysters are available and are said to pop open for easy slurping, we passed on both. Fun and exciting on a slow sunny day. Have to imagine you would need a boatload of time on a busy day. We had two orders ahead of ours and waited about 30 minutes for our order to be cooked a la minute. Was fun and will return for a novel treat along the Nehalem river.

We have come to Kelly's multiple times to crab and have always had an amazing time. We have developed a deep passion and appreciation for crabbing after visiting and we're always met with excellent customer service. Our positive experience led us to want to try camping. That's when our experience turned sour. $42 and we're packed like sardines. No view of the ocean yet on the map, looks like you do have a view. The sites are so close that I could read the title of the book that the people next to us were reading. It's also extremely loud. They advertise a 9pm quiet time but it's not enforced so there's children yelling and screaming and people walking around the campsites drunk at all points of the night. The people on the other side of us decided to actually leave because it was a joke. The only thing separating our sites was a log. We'll never camp here again... for $42, we felt absolutely robbed. To add salt to the wound, they have QR codes set up around the shop asking for feedback. When we scanned it, the Rick roll video was linked to it. Funny to a guest in a good mood but when you're feeling slighted about an experience, to be misled like that, really angered me more. Come for the crabbing but do not come for the camping

We stopped at Kelly Brighton Marina for lunch on our way to the seaside. We had the unique experience of selecting a live Dungeness crab to be steamed, along with two dozen clams. The crab was delicious, but the clams were a bit small. Overall, it was a good experience.

The kids loved setting traps, driving the boat, and catching crab. We ordered a couple crabs to eat too. Delicious! Really fun unique experience.

The seafood prices are quite reasonable. Four of us split 4 crabs, a dozen oysters and a dozen clams for around $100. These are the same crabs you can snag right off the dock in front of you, for a fee I'm sure. Although the food itself is reasonably priced, they charge you for everything else. Sauces. Seasoning. Lemons. The lady behind the counter was pretty rude when informing me of this. I'm surprised they don't charge for napkins and plasticware. There are a few picnic tables where you can stay and eat, including a covered area with a bonfire and an open area by the water with nice views. There is no indoor seating. Plenty of parking.

Amazing. Delicious. Fresh. Fantastic seafood!!! They give you the crab shell with "natural crab butter" inside of it and the heart stabbed into one of the claws. The heart is delicious and so is the butter! The food is so good that I'll still give them 5 stars even though I've got some complaints. I say complaints softly because at the end of the day these things don't need to be changed for me to eat here over and over. They charge separately for everything. You want butter? Seasoning? A shucking knife to open your oysters? Better head into the convenience store on the property because none of that is included. Granted that's why the price is so cheap for such good food! More of an annoyance than a complaint. They will not shuck raw oysters for you which sucks. I originally got half my oysters raw but it was so hard to shuck them I took them back and had them just cook them for me so I could make it back to Portland in time for my flight that evening. Overall it was a great experience and I would gladly eat here again. The deck overlooks the ocean and it was gorgeous. Kind of a stinky place. My partner doesn't like seafood and she had to wait in the car because the smell was so strong. I love seafood so it didn't bother me at all.

This was one of our best experiences in our 10 day trip through Oregon. Oysters and crab were so fresh and tasty and it was relaxing to sit around the fire and view the water!

We found Kelly's during Covid and absolutely fell in love. We met Kelly - the old owner before he sold it and he was awesome. We've since came back a couple of times to camp and crab since they've sold it and the new owner is doing a wonderful job revamping the place! At first I was sad to need to reserve our spots because the thrill of the hunt when it was "first come first serve" was the beginning of the excitement from the moment we left our driveway lol. But, things change and change is good! So here we are, 4 years later and still loving this place! Can't wait to come and visit now that I have an RV and won't be doing tent sites!

Best place ever. So many fun memories. True rustic Oregon coast. Will always go back.

I'm new from California, and an avid kayak fisherman. I've been here a few times, and all I can say is, this place is just all around great! The owner and staff are welcoming, really nice, and helpful. Call them and they are happy to provide more information prior to your trip. They have EVERYTHING you need here. The store has everything you need for crabbing, clothes in case you need it, souvenirs, and plenty of drinks and snacks. I've seen many couples and families with kids having so much fun crabbing on the dock or on one of their boats, especially the kids. This, in itself, is a priceless experience and one to remember! I only wish the launch fee for kayaks is a different price than boats, which is typically hand-launched without the need of a vehicle. But regardless, this place brings so much excitement, good food, and fun for the family and friends! I'll be back for sure!

Camping- awfully close to everyone else and people do not respect quiet time hours. The sites are poorly kept. $42 can be spent elsewhere Also it's loud as it's close to the highway Crabbing- it's alright when you catch crab of the correct size and sex. We have been crabbing 3 times at the Marina and only caught 1 crab that was of size. Customer service: we have been to this marina 4 times-1st time was great; everyone was extremely nice and helpful. However since that first visit- each time the service has gone downhill. We at first recommended this place to friends and family- and now we are taking that back and not recommending this place. They don't care about customers and will literally "Rick roll" you. Scan their QR code and see. What a disgraceful thing to do to customers.

Their crab, oysters, and clams are always good. My family and I go here for our yearly camping trip. We come from Washington. We have been visiting when Kelly was still the owner. We really wish he still owned and ran the place. It was so much better. The crabbing lately hasn't been the greatest. The last two times we came here we didn't catch much, and this recent time we didn't get any keepers. So we ended up buying crab and oysters instead. The staff is always friendly and the place is a good location. Campsites are a bit close but still manage a little privacy. They have showers and bathrooms, as well as a nice gift shop that they've recently expanded w/ lots of cute hoodies/tees/crew necks. Tables for people to eat, and you can also crab off of the dock without having to pay 120 for the boat. Great place to check out at least once. Fun especially for the kids.

Wish this place didn't have a dozen nasty feral cats climbing all over the tables begging for food.. cat beds right by the dining tables... they're a legitimate vector for toxoplasmosis and other rodent diseases. Also what's up with the large wooden reclined chairs that are literally unusable. Feels like I'm getting dental work. The crab was tasty though! Definitely recommend buying and taking it elsewhere to eat.

We rented a boat to go out crabbing. We had never done it before and we got simple instructions and had a blast. They cook your catch and those crabs were the most delicious things I've ever eaten. Fresh, sweetly and slightly salty. Looking forward to coming here on our next trip out.

My son and I just happened to come across Kelly's Marina and we had a great time! The campsites are clean and well maintained. The facilities are clean and convenient. But the best was the customer service! Friendly, welcoming and helpful! We will be coming back! Just a note, I am allergic to shellfish, but I sure wish I wasn't because they had a wonderful set up and looking at some of the families enjoying fresh caught seafood looked amazing!

Fresh dungeness crab, clams and oysters. They boil them outside in big pot. Beer, butter, and lemons can be purchased inside. Sit outside on a picnic table with great view. They also have fire pits. If you are looking for a side salad this is NOT your vibe. This place only had seafood and it is fresh and awesome. We snagged the last loaf of bread they had in the store and it was not the best, so I recommend bringing a loaf of good sourdough from town. You are sitting right on the water, so bring a jacket, cause it gets windy. They also have covered seating for rainy days.

Great place to camp and get fresh cooked crab. Loved photo ops here too...birds, sunsets, crabbing were spectacular!

My cousin had a good experience with his family here a little while back. So it was a total bummer to be treated so poorly by the young-ish 20-something year old guy who took our order outside and cooked the seafood for us. When I tried to place our order with him, I said "Can we get 2 crabs and the clams with butter and garlic?" And he immediately raised his voice and snapped at me and said, "NO YOU ORDER THAT INSIDE!" He meant the condiments (butter, garlic) but was unclear and just continued being exasperated and rude to us when I tried to clarify what he was saying. My guy, I speak perfect English - you're the one with the poor communication skills and awful customer service. This guy should not be let anywhere near a customer. There was also a significant amount of dirt in our metal tray that held our seafood when it was served to us. The guy in his 40's inside the building was much nicer about explaining things while he rang us up. But woof, not a great way to start a meal. I can't imagine we'll be back. Every other place we stopped at on our full day exploring the Oregon coast was a significantly better experience.

More of an experience. Very cool way to eat fresh crab and clams. It is not a restaurant. Great staff cool place. Be sure to get your butter garlic and lemons and use the microwave inside.

Such a fun experience! Beautiful spot to sit at the picnic tables and the seafood was so good and so fresh. Cooked on the spot. There was a shop where you could go inside and buy butter to heat up in the microwave or lemons or cocktail sauce. Utensils were available and some additional hot sauces etc were free

We rented a boat for crabbing, which came with a 2-hour rental, pre-baited crab nets, life jackets, and even cooking the crabs afterwards. Everyone was incredibly friendly and helpful, making it a fun experience! After crabbing, you can relax by a fire and enjoy the company of the sweetest cats--Sean was my favorite! If boating isn't your thing, you can also rent a crab pot and crab right off the dock. They also sell fresh crab, clams and oysters if you prefer to just buy. Can't wait to come back!

Great spot you wouldn't know about if someone didn't mention it. Fresh seafood cooked from the dock. Can rent a boat to go crabbing. Full coolers for supplies

5 stars for this crabbing marina on the Oregon coast! I took my kids, and we had an incredible time. The staff was super friendly and made the whole process easy, even helping us get out on the boat. We caught our own crabs and, the best part, there's nowhere else I've been where they'll cook it up for you right on-site so you can enjoy it fresh! The experience was so unique and fun, my kids are already planning our next trip. If you want something different and memorable, this is the place to go. Highly recommend!

We stopped by since we were craving crab and oyster shooters. Unfortunately they were out of shooters. The crab was cooked to order and they had a covered area we could eat at (pet friendly). It was rainy so we were a little cold. The crab was cleaned for us and tasted amazing. My only slight complaint was service on the inside. It wasn't terribly busy but felt not very welcomed or greeted, almost like we were a nuisance (maybe someone was having a bad day?). Service outside was great. We ate it too fast for pictures!

Low key tourist trap, but honestly we had a great time here. We opted for dock crabbing instead of getting a boat. We bought our crabbing license there too as well instead of going through and making an online account. You only need the license if you are going to touch the crab. We caught a lot but they were all female crabs or too small, so we had to throw it back in. We ended up ordering crabs at the dock, which they boiled in salt water, but we of course expected to bring some home. It's great that they sell $4 beers there too so you can just kick back and hang out by the dock or fire pit. Unfortunately you have to pay for extra bait, wood for the fire pits, and even butter. Even though we literally caught no viable crabs, we had an excellent day trip out here! I'm sure there are other places like this, but this was the easiest website to navigate and understand and it was the cheapest!

Had a great time with the family! We rented the boat for crab fishing and it was 4 adults and one child. We caught 12 large males, but when we came back to shore, it turns out only 4 were the "legal size." The staff were super nice. The instructions were confusing but it made more sense when we were out on the water. It was the highlight of our vacation and we'd definitely do it again !

Be out on the deck. Pick your seafood and they will cook it for you. What more can ya ask for? We went in a windy and cloudy day. Still enjoyed every bit of it. We took our friend from FL and he absolutely loved it! Outdoor and indoor seating. We gotta return when the weather is nice and give an updated review. :)

Fun place to stay! You can rent crab nets to fish for crab right off the docks or rent a boat. Saw 4 otters swimming right off shore. Stayed two nights, but you don't need to camp to buy or catch crab. Although there is noise from the street above the marina, it's not bad and subsides in the evening. Plenty of coin op showers that are open 24/7 ($1.5/5 min).

August 6-8th: I thought I wrote a review but am not seeing it here. For this reason this is being written months later. I went once last year and the owner was just amazing and very visible the entire time I was there. This year, unbeknownst to me, the owners had changed. You could tell. When I arrived, the office was closed and no one greeted us. We were supposed to have the end spots but they were all taken when we arrived. I saw 2 open spots side by side and since my friend had reserved a spot, as well, I knew that these were ours. I pretty much set up and got ourselves situation with no one greeting us. I just keep stressing the not being greeted because last time the owner was everywhere. It turned out that there was a large party for about 4 spots which is probably the reason they pushed us over. I do wish they had honored my request since I did call almost a year in advance. The people at the part were up late but they quieted down around 11PM or so. They invited us over which I thought was a good touch (so we wouldn't complain). One of the workers went over and asked them to quiet down and reminded them to keep it quiet so that the owners did not come out. We went crabbing the next day and it was a blast! That part of the place had not changed. It was easy to reserve our boat and the employees were helpful. We caught about 5 crabs so that was pretty good. It was good to see the reviews that they are all positives so after we left, it looks like everything was still great and dandy. I was to the point where I was going to try a different place next year but will give them another shot. I just want that at home welcoming feel that I felt last year.

Stopping here was the best decision ever. What's better than amazing seafood and adorable kittens?! Everyone was so friendly and the fresh seafood was to die for. I'm from Maine so I was dying to try a selection of west coast shellfish. They have so many cute kittens on the premise that made the experience even more fun. I would come back in a heartbeat!

If you're looking for an experience, look no further. Kelly's is a campground, RV park, crab experience, eatery. You can buy crab licenses onsite and rent boats onsite for the real experience of catching/eating your own crab OR, you can be vanilla like me and pay an extremely reasonable price ($15/lb) to eat to your heart's delight on crab, clams and oysters (cooked). Let me be clear. There is NOTHING fancy about this place. It's a paper towel, cut your lemon w/ a plastic knife, paper plate, crab guts, butter in a cup that you have to microwave (LOVE) shells in the water kinda joint. But that's all part of the amazing experience! The beer is cold and the surroundings are as authentic as you can get...I could've sat here all day and just watched the goodies being brought in. Next time I'm close by...I won't hesitate to stop in for another visit!

What an awesome surprise how great this place is. We always drove by thinking it was just a dump. Well we were camping at Nehalem State Park and wanted to do some crabbing. We came here cause they rent boats with baited rings and all. It's been like forever since I operated an outboard and was a little nervous. The guy on the dock was awesome teaching me. Super nice guy and smelly fish bait too. The bay was full of crab. We pulled up 10-15 crab in each ring. Unfortunately most were too small of females. It didn't matter though, we got enough keepers and had a blast We came back and gave the crab to the girls there. They cooked and cleaned them for me. How awesome. They have a great area to eat them and hang out, but we took to go. Wife wasn't 100%. Never does well in boats. Lots more there too. Many people coming in just to buy seafood. I can't wait to go back.

Great food and customer service and very reasonably priced!! They have crabbing boats and equipment to rent, a nice little store with a good selection of local beer.

Our family was out there for Labor Day weekend and it was truly the best experience. Separated sections for families to camp, coin operated showers & friendly helpful staff. We had a group of over 20 and they were so accommodating. Food was delicious, fresh as can be! Love the rustic setting truly tied in the whole camping experience. We are definitely going back next year with even more people.
