Anchor's A-Way walk to beach.

1 site · Lodging1 acre · Florence, OR

This house is for the young, or young at heart as it has a ladder-stairway to the loft, where you'll find the queen bed. It's super close to the beach, but in a marvelous wind protected location so you can enjoy the deck in the morning, afternoon and evening. It has as much outdoor living space as there is inside. There is a picnic table for outside dining as well. You'll find 2 rattan swivel rockers, and a 40 inch TV on a rolling cart. It has streaming internet TV with Sling. The built in twin beds are perfect for children, or taking a quick nap in the afternoon, while curled up with a book. I have a thing for A-frames, they've been disappearing, right and left in Florence and on the West Coast in general, as people rip them down and toss up more practical housing. I blogged about this A-frame and Helmsman's Hide-A-Way in January & March of 2013, little did I know I'd wind up with both of them in June 2013 as vacation rentals. While these 2 represent opposite ends of the spectrum, they're both fantastic pieces of history, if you enjoy rustic, funky, and fun historic houses you'll love them, as much as I do. If you're really into A-frames and oddities, ask me and I'll provide you with a self guided tour list, to see in the neighborhood. Since we took on this house the owners have passed on this house to their daughter. I loved hearing the family stories, telling me about swinging out of the loft (before we put in the new loft rail - it's amazing any of us survived ;-) Since we took it on 7 years ago, we have replaced all the windows, siding and re-built the deck rail benches, plus replace the refrigerator and range. In the winter of 2023 we plan to replace the flooring on the main floor. Enjoy Burgers & Brew "where the locals hang out" at Jerry's Place within walking distance or Anchors A-Way is a short drive from the Historic Old Town Florence gift shops, the Antique District, art galleries, wine bars, coffee bistros, and fabulous seafood restaurants.

Dog-friendly a-frames near North Bend guide

Overview

On the outskirts of Coos Bay, North Bend is the gateway to the Oregon Dunes National Recreation Area and while taking an ATV or dune buggy out on the 500-foot heaps of sand is one of the top attractions here, there’s plenty more to see and do. Popular activities range from crossing Coo's Bay on the gorgeous McCullough Bridge to exploring Sunset Bay and Shore Acres State Park. The Mill Casino & Hotel, run by the local Coquille Indian Tribe, is also in town and there are numerous wooded campgrounds within a short drive, both on the beach and slightly inland.

Where to go

Oregon’s South Coast

North Bend offers easy access to other spots on the picturesque South Coast, arguably the prettiest part of an already gorgeous coastline. Popular spots include the Samuel H. Boardman State Scenic Corridor, with its numerous Pacific-facing viewpoints, and Cape Blanco State Park, the westernmost point in the state.

Central Coast Dunes

While North Bend offers easy access to some of the best dunes in the land, there are even more to be found up north on the Oregon Central Coast. Florence and Reedsport both have massive dunes. Those in Florence can be easily accessed from the massive Jessie M. Honeyman Memorial State Park.

Umpqua National Forest

East of North Bend, the Umpqua National Forest offers beautiful old-growth stands, rivers, waterfalls, hiking trails, and plenty of campgrounds. It’s also home to numerous crystalline lakes and is directly connected to Crater lake, Oregon’s only national park.

When to go

Summer is by far the most popular time to visit North Bend, owing to generally warmer, dryer weather. However, this season can also get crowded, particularly during July and August, so be prepared to book in advance. Summer is also ideal if you want to take an ATV or UTV out on the dunes; daily rain is common from October through May and wet dunes can be difficult to drive on.
