GREAT ESCAPES PART 2-OREGON COAST-LINCOLN CITY....GREAT EATS ON YOUR ESCAPE!!

GREAT ESCAPES PART 2-OREGON COAST-LINCOLN CITY....GREAT EATS ON YOUR ESCAPE!!

Okay, now that you have finally done it AND MADE YOUR GREAT ESCAPE.....WHAT NEXT??? Where are you going to find the best food and best deals??

FATHOMS inside of the Inn at Spanish Head has fantastic happy hour specials. Appetizers range from $1.99 to $3.99. Our favorites?? Hot Crab and Artichoke Dip and Chicken Satay.

The Grey Coast and Keylime Martinis are yummy also!!



For dinner we head to Pier 101 which is the place with the huge crab painted on the side. They have THE BEST deep fried halibut and prawns. The batter is like none other. The Pier has many options for fresh seafood and steak. At first, the prices may seem a bit pricey until you see the portion sizes. The halibut chunks are a great appetizer to start out with. You'll want malt vinegar, tartar sauce and cocktail sauce for these. The Seafood Platter is a great choice for dinner that gives you a little bit of everything-steamers in a beef/garlic broth, baked halibut, deep fried prawns, cod and scallops, and baked oysters. (I always sub the oysters out for prawns). All of this is served with Pier Plank Potatoes (awesome with malt vinegar and tartar sauce) and bread.



If you have a prime rib lover in the group, then Friday and Saturday night is the time to visit the Pier.

Other great places to eat for Breakfast is Richen's on the Beach. Again, the menu is a little pricey, at about $10 a breakfast, but the portions are large enough to last you all day until dinner. While you are there, be sure to try one a Bloody Mary. The homemade mix is wonderful!!

See you at the Oregon Coast!!

My Great Weekend Escape Can Be Yours Too!!

The Salem Oregon Real Estate Market has really been hopping lately. As a matter of fact, I had not taken a day off since the beginning of May. So, we finally decided to make a great escape for my birthday somewhere close by. We decided on Lincoln City as that is one of our favorite places to escape. We stayed at a wonderful little resort property that is one of four establishments owned by the same company. We stayed at Nantucket Inn for $99/night.

The great thing about this little inn is that there are only 5 rooms, and you only have 11 steps down to the beach.


The rooms have gas fireplaces and jetted tubs.

We stayed in the top room-the Penthouse Suite. The ocean view is great!

If your planning a trip to the coast be sure to check out the four properties that On The Beachfront owns. We also highly recommend the Starfish Manor. We originally starting off staying at this property years ago. They have wonderful rooms with gas fireplaces and jetted tubs in front of the window overlooking the ocean. They also have a couple of 2 bedroom suites that have full kitchens, fireplaces, jetted tubs and a hot tub on the deck. Beach access is not direct from this particular hotel though.

Taking the family with? That's okay, then The Beach House is for you.

Stay tuned for our Great Weekend Escapes favorite places to eat!!
