Been coming here for over thirty years. Getting to watch a glass artist painstakingly create a work of art never gets old. Beautiful pieces to buy in a gorgeous setting. Nice stop along with Mossy Creek Pottery.

Lincoln City Cultural Center truly does put the "cult" in "culture". I went there and learned the ways of the Jesuit.

HANDMADE IN THE NORTHWEST. Mossy Creek Pottery was founded in 1973 on six acres bordering the beautiful Siletz Bay Wildlife Refuge. Located just one scenic half-mile off U.S. Highway 101, the near century-old farmhouse is easily found as you travel on Immonen Road through a forest of spruce and hemlock. This hidden gem is home to the work of 40 Northwest artists. Inside you'll find a wide assortment of functional and decorative pottery in an array of glazes, representing the many and varied styles and techniques of our local and regional potters. Discover a little treasure for yourself or find a gift for someone special. There's something at Mossy Creek for every taste and any budget.

What a gem off the beaten highway on the way to Depot Bay. Watch for the little "Blue or Green" marker on the highway that should say "Turn Left Now" ! I was so enchanted to both find and visit this whimsical artsy store. Always one to support local artists, as one writer wrote, so many wonderful pieces, which to choose. Like them, I was hard pressed to just pick up maybe one or two pieces. Many over my budget but also enough within my price range to choose from. Beautifully displayed crafts by local artists. The quality of work they displayed was some of the best I have seen in my travels. I'm from Portland originally and spent all summers as a child and even older adult lounging by the sea in the Lincoln City and Taft area. I have wanted to stop here for YEARS and so thankful I finally took the time on my last road trip from San Francisco. Please folks, support your local artists and communities. Take this road less traveled and see what charm and beauty awaits you. You will Not Be Disappointed!

This small town museum is top notch! It tells the story of the central coast, offers interactive displays for kids, and houses the wonderful glass float collection of Dr. Nick Simpson, a local dentist. Every time you turn a corner you’ll be surprised at what you see and learn! The Lincoln City Historical Society is a definite must-see.

My husband and I love looking through antique malls, especially ones that carry actual antiques! The Little Antique Mall is awesome, we spent over 3 hours strolling through the store and found some beautiful and rare items. My husband even found a high dive - a large wine bottle with a spout on the bottom - the exact same as we had at parties during our teenage years. There was so much to look at that I am sure if we go back - which I want to - that we could spend another 3 hours and see items that we missed the first time around.
