Sunshine Bar Campground is a primitive, free Forest Service campground with 6 first-come, first-served sites along the Wild and Scenic Elk River, offering direct river access for swimming and scenic activities.

The campground features picnic tables, fire pits, and vault toilets, but has no potable water or garbage service (pack out all trash).

Access requires a 19-mile drive east from Port Orford on Forest Road 5325, which is unmaintained gravel with hazards including fallen trees and poor conditions—plan for a challenging approach, especially in winter weather.
