Exploring Cape Kiwanda

Cape Kiwanda is a tiny beach community located on the northern Oregon Coast. Although the town itself is very small, the beaches and state park here are among some of the most beautiful I’ve seen in Oregon. The beach at …

Nehalem Bay State Park

I think I’ve had a change of heart. The Oregon coast isn’t a place we’ve spent much time exploring. We live in the Willamette Valley, known for rain and overcast days and the only place in Oregon that sees less …

Cape Lookout State Park…In the Sunshine!

We LOVE it here. So much in fact, that we canceled reservations for another campground we had reservations at later in the week and decided to spend our remaining four days camped here (site 5). Totally private, gorgeous views and …
