You have to try to great place to stay in Lincoln City, Oregon

This last March my husband and I celebrated our 30th wedding anniversary. As is our custom for our anniversary, we went to the Oregon coast. We stayed at one of our favorite motels in Lincoln City. We decided to drive around and check out real estate while we were there and happened upon an open house. We struck up a conversation with the real estate agent and she recommended a local motel called the Anchor Inn. This last week end was the long 4th of July week end and we thought it would be fun to go to the coast and meet up with some friends who were staying in Newport at a campground. There was room for us there so we thought we would take the easy way and stay in a motel. The Anchor Inn came to mind and we called and got one of the last reservations. Wow! We were so thrilled with our choice. This place is amazing! It was built in 1946 and has memorabilia everywhere! The quaintness of the place was incredible! The suite was fantastic! With a sitting area and separate bedroom. Then we had a large common living room, kitchen and computer room on our floor. We slept in the main building, but I guess the cottages had their own kitchenettes, living room and bedroom. The first floor had an awesome living room and bar area where they served a hot breakfast that was part of the room price. We all sat around on 40th and 50th furniture and were served by very friendly and welcoming staff. We had great conversations with total strangers and enjoyed every minute of it. We even got a recommendation for a place to have lunch in the future. This place motel was only $79 a night during the 4th of July week end! I heard during the winter months you can stay there for as low as $39 on week nights. That includes a hot breakfast. Oh did a mention that they have a DVD shelf that must have 200-300 DVD that you can check out for free? You have to try this place when you are going to the Oregon Coast. Look it up online. It was a wonderful place to refresh and energized to get back into the swing of life again. No, you don't have an ocean view, but you can hear and for that price we didn't complain. We could easily walk to the beach for my much loved walks along the beach. We want to go back with a group of friends and spend a week end this winter. So thank you to the realtor that was friendly and gave us such a great recommendation. She may not have sold us a house, but she brought more business to her community by having us come back! By the way, I love Oregon! What a place to live and work! And I love what I do. Helping people buy or sell properties in the wonderful state of Oregon. Check out the picture, it is just one room in this very unique motel. http://www.historicanchorinn.com/index.html
