Ocean Breeze RV Resort

We stayed here for 4 nights from July 27 - 30.  This membership park is located 2 miles south of Ocean City, Oregon.  While this is on the Oregon coast we opted to drive the three miles to the beach.  The campground is heavily treed and most sites were created by clearing an area in the forest.  We were able to find a site with satellite reception, but the 30 amp electric was not strong enough to run our microwave and voltage was too low.  I would be willing to bet that someone on our same line was using a power booster.  Our 30 amp extention cord was visably burnt, so we disconnected the electric and used our onboard batteries and inverter.  We purchased a new 30 amp extention in town and moved the motorhome to the next campsite and power was still marginal.  Many sites were closed to RV's due to no electric.  I have not had any difficulty with electric before or after this stop.  All sites had water and I needed jacks to level our coach.  Most sites had picnic tables and firepit.  We were disappointed that we could not see the ocean or walk to it from the campground and no sewer hookup at sites.  There were dump stations near the exit though.  We were fogged in nearly our whole stay and it was chilly.  It was the first time we wore jeans and jackets this whole trip.  We paid $11.15 per night with our RPI membership and I rate this park M***.  If they could upgrade the electric to 50 amp and add sewer to the sites I would upgrade to ****. 

We did a little 4 wheeling on the beach with the Tahoe and Buddy was able to run free on the beach and chase the thousands of sea gulls on the beach and in the water.  I had to keep a close eye on him as the fog would sweep in and out and I had to run after him to keep him in my sight.  We dined on steamed clams, raw oysters, and clam chowder in Ocean Shores, a couple miles to the south.  We also chowed down on a prime rib special for $11.99 at the local Quinault Beach Resort & Casino in Ocean Shores.  We joined their players club and won $21 which I gave back when I entered a poker tournament.
