13 miles up the Chetco River from Brookings, then 1/2 miles straight down a steep bluff to the long, wide stony gravel bed which is Miller Bar. The Chetco in front of my site is about 10 inches deep at it's deepest, but about 40' wide. The rocks are covered in bright green algae, but it's not too cold so I had a pleasant horizontal soak.
Just drive along the gravel, park wherever you want, and you're home free,
Some ATT cellphone reception but not great.

The driving is VERY rough for a city vehicle.
