Drive times are from Portland metro, not from a fake shop. Some hosts deliver to a campground pad when the site and the length allow it. Otherwise you pick up from the host.

Highway 26 to Government Camp and Timberline. Ski season, summer alpine trails, and length-aware mountain campgrounds.
90 min driveExplore
Coast
Oregon Coast (Cannon Beach / Seaside)
US-26 to Seaside and Cannon Beach. Haystack Rock, state park hookups, and fog that ignores your weekend plan.

45-75 min driveExplore
