Highlights
  • Camp 18 Museum - Those who want to learn more about logging history in the northwest, or who simply are curious about vintage logging machinery, will find plenty of material at Camp 18. Outdoor displays include multiple steam donkeys such as a Dolbeer single spool, a very early first-generation model, to a high-tech late-model Willamette compound geared yarder that was the height of technology for its day. Other displays on site include a large bandsaw from a sawmill, a self-propelled Ohio steam crane, Caterpillar-style tracked vehicles that worked in the woods, a railroad skeleton log car and other heavy equipment plus a wide variety of large and small hardware. We will make a quick stop here on our way to the spectacular Oregon Coast so that you can explore the historic equipment, use the restroom, and buy some coffee if you want.

Best Oregon Coast Day Trip - The entire trip is fantastic, from hotel pickup to drop-off. The guide cum driver Phil was excellent, knowledgeable, friendly, and courteous. The stops planned were perfect; we wouldn't have been able to do it by ourselves: Cannon Beach, Haystack Rock, and all stops in between, old-growth forest hikes, restroom stops, and food/coffee stops. I would recommend this trip to anybody. Enjoy the beautiful Oregon Coast with this tour company. I would do this trip again if I came back to Portland.

Cannon beach and Haystack. Excellent, full day trip! - Did the Cannon Beach & Haystack full day tour. Of course, the Oregon coastline is amazing! That goes without saying. It would have been nice to spend a little more time at each place, spending on average 20-25 min each location (other than a full 1.5 hrs at Cannon beach). That is just what it is given the length of the day. However the real gem of this was our guide, Phil. What a cool, down to earth, friendly, and outstandingly knowledgeable guide he was. Guides can be a make or break, and he was a true ‘make’! Excellent trip.
