1. Cape Lookout State Park
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 370 reviews
Coastal park offering opportunities for whale watching.
Reviewed By Jcwill5 - McMinnville, United States
My son and I camped for three nights and were super pleased with our experience here. We did the long beach walk north to the end of the sand spit, the shorter beach walk south to the caves and tide pools, and took the long hike up to the cape lookout trail head and then out to the cape (9.4 miles round-trip). Our tent camping site was clean, well laid out, and offered running water, a picnic table, and fire ring. We were graced with bright sunny days and a clear night for star gazing on the beach. This is a real gem of a park, and they have a really fine day use area, too, for one day visitors. We highly recommend it!

Drove by Bear Creek many times but never stopped. On my travels I noticed many improvements on the grounds . Large pond with huge fountain and a dog park added recently . Got caught behind traffic so I pulled into parking lot to visit the business. Met Amanda the manager and buyer of the store. Outstanding representative for Bear Creek. The inventory is a class act and we left spending over a hundred bucks on some unique goods. The prices ARE reasonable and after research the wind chimes I bought are more expensive than all the sites on the internet. The business is extremely neat and orderly. The displays have taste . Its odd such a jewel of a store is located where it is. There is something for everyone in the store. Come summer Amanda spoke of additional improvements of the property and I expect it will be a huge stomping ground for motorists.

In 1942, the U.S. Navy began construction of 17 wooden hangars to house the K-class blimps being used for anti-submarine coast patrol and convoy escort. Two of these hangars were built at the Naval Air Station Tilllamook, commissioned in December 1942 to serve the Oregon-Washington coastal area. Construction of the two hangars was rushed to completion. Hangar "B" was the first one built and was completed in August of 1943. Hangar "A" which was destroyed in a 1992 fire, was completed in only 27 days. Amazingly, there were no serious injuries or deaths on the whole project. Stationed at NAS Tillamook was Squadron ZP-33 with a complement of eight K-ships. The K-ships were 252 feet long and filled with 425,000 cu. ft. of helium. With a range of 2,000 miles and an ability to stay aloft for three days, they were well suited for coast patrol and convoy escort. Naval Air Station Tillamook was decommissioned in 1948.

The inside of the blimp hanger is worth the admission alone to see. the door are 120 feet tall, and if you look closely, you can see a basket ball hoop at the top of the doors. The exhibits are very well worth the time to see.
