[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Thanks everyone!  I think we're gonna skip Bend to do coast.

Looking at PDX in - 
Day 1 - Drive to Manzanita. Stay by beach in vrbo
Day 2 - Enjoy beach look for agates, see Cannon Beach.
Day 3 - get to Headlands Coastal Lodge in pacific City for a few nights - moonlight kayak, dunes, relax.
Day 8 - drive to Bannon.  Lunch in Lincoln/see Depoe Bay/lunch - Anchor Inn Resort there or continue on to see Yachats. Stay around there or Coos Bay for the night or continue on to stay in Brandon area??? 
Day 9 - explore Bandon or Coos on way to Umpqua stay either Tiny Home (Umpqua Last Resort) or River Vista Vacation home. 
Day 10 raft Umpqua
Day 11 relax - explore Umqqua
Day 12 - fly Eugene out

So I'm just trying to figure best logistics from Pacific City to Brandon since there's so much in between.  Wish we could get down to Hold Beach but too much I think.  Not sure if we do extra day for Coos/Depoe Bay v Umpqua free day?

Thoughts?

If into adventure stuff you could do sand dune ATVs in Florence (guided). That was crazy and i was physically sore the next day from stabilizing my entire body, lol.  
Bandon--must go at low tide and walk the tidepools. We also did this in Newport with an entirely different ecosystem (not sure if that's the right word, but looked and felt totally different).

Bandon is very small--in fact, we had a snafu with our home rental there (was rented to two different families) and we literally got the last two motel rooms in town. Though I loved the town, it really is good for just 1 or 2 days tops. Newport has some shops and more restaurants and a much busier beach.[/quote]
