About
Prichard State Wayside is a 1-acre park on the Oregon coast, about 2 miles from the town of Florence. It's a small stop rather than a destination for a full day, and it fits easily into a trip around the Florence area. Summer is the most comfortable time to visit. Typical averages from a nearby weather station show July and August highs around 67°F with lows near 51°F, while winter highs stay in the upper 40s. For more to do close by, South Jetty Sand Camps sits about 1.5 miles away and Woahink Lakeside Trail about 2.3 miles away. Tyee Campground and Lagoon Campground, both within about 6 miles, offer additional places to stay.
