Nehalem Bay State Park

A popular state park.

Reviewed By ketah777 - Fernandina Beach, Florida

Beautiful state park with paved, level sites. We have a 40 ft 5th wheel and were able to fit into site A41 with no trouble. The sites along this stretch of the A loop seemed to have a little more room around them than sites in the rest of the campground. We backed up to woods for a little privacy. The loops can be tight to drive around as you're getting to your site, especially when it's crowded with lots of people and vehicles in or near the road. We arrived on a weekday and didn't have any trouble. There are wonderful paved bike trails at this park, as well as plenty of beach access. Verizon and AT&T both worked well there. We ate dinner one night at the Pizza Garden nearby which was wonderful, they use all fresh ingredients.

This is such a nice man that owns this. He is very laid back. Don't expect fast, speedy service...but you will get good service.Thank you for your nice words. This time of year our dock hands go back to school. We could definitely use an extra hand in the fall. We will look into it for next season. Thanks again for your review.

Kelly's Brighton Marina

Reviewed By Jo W - Czm

We rented one of their small trolling boats (we crammed with 5 people) , and it included 4 baited crab rings for 2 hours. You set them out at intervals and then go back 15 minutes later to check for crabs. We probably got over 100 crabs in that time, but they were either under the size limit or female, which you can’t keep. We laughed all day and ended up with 2 crabs that were legal. Heck, it was a great day anyway! They cooked them for us and showed us how to clean them, and then we fought over them at dinner.
Patio is fun in the sun, drank beer while waiting for them 2 cook. We figured it was probably $75 per crab, but you just can’t pay enough for laughter, and sharing the day with good friends

Finally, after decades visiting the Oregon Coast we managed to visit Nehalem Bay Winery! First, we're not fruit wine drinkers. My wife tried one but wasn't a huge fan. On the other hand, their grape wines are pretty good, if a bit pricey. The staff...MoreThank you for stopping by to see us. We appreciate you taking time to give us a review.

What a fun place! I collect many things primitive. Every nook and cranny at the Wheeler Station is filled with items long forgotten, but still useful. I love finding items that can be repurposed or used as they are. Everything I buy is used. Cutesy unused collections are just clutter.

Oregon Beach Rides

Reviewed By Rivvy - MA

We wanted to check out the Oregon coast without just spending the whole day in the car or on Cannon Beach. We actually found OBR on TripAdvisor, and have had pretty good luck based on reviews, so decided to check it out. Who doesn't want to take a horseback ride on the beach, right?! Best decision we made all vacation!! The impromptu activity was perfect. To start, the ride there is gorgeous!! Windy back roads through the mountains, and then it's pretty flat but beautiful as you make your way into the park. The ranch was easy to find, and there were clean public bathrooms right at the parking lot. We signed a waiver, the guides gave their little speech about safety, and then we were up on our horses. Seeing the horses and how their handlers treated them made me so happy. They obviously had a very happy life, and were loved like we love our dog. They were very clean, healthy looking, beautifully groomed, and the guides whispered little sweet nothings. One guide even itched a horse's leg for her, when she couldn't get the itch herself! I was put with Sissy, and my boyfriend with Belle. We walked up the dunes, and down a good length of beach. The mountains behind us and ocean in front of us were gorgeous! We always felt safe atop the horses, unlike other experiences. There were kids with us from another family, and they seemed happy an unafraid the entire time as well. After we walked for about half an hour we stopped and the guides took pictures for us on our phones and cameras. Hooray! We walked back down the beach and dunes, as the guide shared his experiences, knowledge, and tips with us. I wish we had booked the two hour ride because one hour was not enough! LOVED!
