This park is located about 20 miles south of Tillamook very close to the pacific ocean... lovely spot really and we have always enjoyed our visits to this park. For 1 thing they have wild bunnies and deer which adds a special flavor! Then they are right across the street from a very cool beach with tide pools... their very own 'haystack rock' which they like to boast about in town.. the park is on a hill and densly wooded which adds a bit of privacy... WHEN the weather is nice, it's a great place to have campfires... this year however our timing was off and we hit a very rainy, windy time! goodness the wind and rain pelted down on us and we stayed pretty much holed up inside..ha! Left today (the 29th) and had every thing hit us from rain, wind, hail, snow and finally sunshine! Lovely.. now at Long Beach, WA until Friday!!!
This is one of the best places to visit in this area of the state! Love all the colonial buildings; homes, shops etc. This is not the 1st capital of the state - that was at Jamestown just down the road a bit but this building is still standing. This colonial town is just across the street from William & Mary College. They have really commercialized the area building Busch gardens and a water park as well as adding outlet stores. You can still see the docents in colonial wear and get a feel for the folks who started it all here back in the 1700's. Well worth the visit and it helps to have lovely weather!
