Twilight
at Manzanita on another night, this one with a full moon brewing |
(Manzanita,
Oregon) – When the night comes, Oregon’s coast becomes
an entirely different creature. This is often my favorite time to
hit the beaches, as they are deserted of travelers and tourists,
and somehow a little more unnerving and filled with a sense of slight
danger – increasing the adrenaline of this experience, adding
some new, indefinable element. Somehow, the waves looking more ominous
and threatening at night, as if one of those big ones 100 feet from
the tide line may be a tsunami. |

City Vacation Homes There’s
something for everyone among this selection of wondrous homes:
smaller homes with a view to a large house that sleeps 15. All
the homes are either oceanfront or just a few steps away from
the sand – all with a low bank access and fantastic views.
Most are in the Nelscott area; one is close to the casino. You’ll
find a variety of goodies, depending on the home: fireplaces,
multiple bedrooms, dishwashers, Jacuzzis, washer/dryers, hot tubs,
cable TV, VCR, barbecues; there’s a loft in one, and another
sprawling home has two apartments. Pets are allowed in some homes
– ask ahead. Each comes with complete kitchens so you’ll
have a home away from home. Most have the seventh night free.
Prices range from winter $85 to summer $230 per night. www.getaway2thecoast.com.
