I have been fulfilling Real Estate needs on the central
Oregon coast, Pacific City through Neskowin, Lincoln City, Gleneden Beach,
Depoe Bay, Newport, Waldport, & Yachats since 1997. I am a past owner of a
vacation rental company, former managing partner of a property investment
company, and former Bed and Breakfast owner/operator. I've developed a good
feel of what works and what doesn't in this area and I would be glad to
share my accumulated knowledge with you. The
payoff for quality service is in repeat business and referrals given to
friends by customers. Fifty percent of my business comes from referrals and
repeat business. As a top REALTOR®, I do not work
alone! I have a whole team of people working in your best interests.
I have the experience and track record you are
looking for. Please let me help.
Boiler
Bay State Scenic Viewpoint
A miraculous and rugged, basalt-rimmed bay, Boiler Bay is a
great place to watch wild surf action on the rocky spurs. This
splendid panoramic viewpoint presents a good opportunity to
see migrating and resident gray whales. Take your binoculars
-- this is one of the best sites in Oregon to see ocean-going
birds (like shearwaters, jaegers, albatrosses, grebes,
pelicans, loons, oystercatchers and murrelets). In 1910, an
explosion sank the J. Marhoffer, and you can see the ship's
boiler at low-tide. A short, rough trail takes you to some of
Oregon's richest tide pools.
Fogarty
Creek State Recreation Area
Where the creek and ocean meet, you’ll
find ingredients that make the spirit soar. Discover this
park’s perfect wind-sheltered picnic areas. In case of rain,
head for the covered picnic shelter. Walk the wooden
footbridges arching through the Sitka spruce, western hemlock,
shore pine and alder forest. At the cliff-rimmed beach, a lazy
creek flows into the sea, cutting through an enchanting scenic
ocean cove. This park has some of the best birdwatching and
tidepooling on the coast.

Recreational Amenities
Depoe Bay is a picturesque community overlooking the Pacific
Ocean, and is appropriately known as the "Whale Watching Capital
of the World." Depoe Bay has several lodging facilities,
vacation rentals, and many fine restaurants and shops. Depoe Bay
is known for the natural phenomena of the "spouting horns" which
is a lava formation on the ocean next to Highway 101 in which
sea water slams against Depoe Bay's lava wall and splashes
vertically, looking much like a geyser. The spouting horns only
occur when there is enough velocity in the action of the waves.
So the spouting horns are most common in winter, and less so in
summer. In addition to whale watching, hiking, biking, walking,
boating and rowing, Depoe Bay features the Depoe Bay City Park
and Bay/Harbor, ocean charter fishing/crabbing, Boiler Bay,
Rocky Creek State Park, Fogarty Creek Beach, and is a few
minutes' drive to the Salishan Lodge and Golf Resort, and nearby
Otter Crest Beach/Devils Punch Bowl.
