Come Discover the Sweets Delights of Oceanside or Yachats this Holiday Season!
Both of these scenic coastal towns are small in size but big in beauty. Stunning landscapes, picturesque beaches, laid back locals, fresh seafood, and more are waiting to greet you. Since it is the holiday season, and everything is sweeter when you are with friends and family. Here are a few tips to find some sugar and spice and everything nice on your coastal getaway.
Oceanside
Home to the iconic Three Arch Rocks, Oceanside is a small and scenic community known for some of the most beautiful beaches in the world. Enjoy hiking, biking, or fishing in the many parks and forests that surround the town.
After an adventure-filled morning, treat yourself to a decadent dessert and a beverage of your choice at Roseanna’s Café. Indulge in a delicious slice of pie or cake made in-house. We love the Marionberry Cobbler and Toll House pie served warm with ice cream. We recommend checking their business hours before stopping by.
Another family favorite stop is nearby Tillamook Creamery where you can take a tour and savor a scoop of their iconic, extra creamy ice cream. Keep an eye out for new and seasonal flavors that are sometimes served up before they hit the stores. Some of our favorites include Oregon Strawberry, Mountain Huckleberry and Monster Cookie.
Yachats
Located on the central Oregon coast, Yachats is a picturesque town known for its rugged coastline, scenic landscapes, and artistic community. Visit Cape Perpetua, a breathtaking scenic area just south of Yachats with several hiking trails, viewpoints and a Visitor Cener, or take a stroll through Yachats State Park and explore the stunning beaches. While it may be a bit brisk during the winter, the natural beauty and tranquility of the coastline make for a unique and peaceful experience.
After working up an appetite, stop by Bread & Roses Bakery where you will find a selection of freshly baked breads and pastries (sweet & savory) made with locally sourced ingredients. Try a bear paw – puff pastry filled with almond cream, or a prosciutto & goat cheese croissant.
The Green Salmon Café takes their tea and coffee seriously. Enjoy warming up with your beverage of choice paired with a cookie, pastry or baked good.
Need an afternoon pick-me-up? Drive-thru The Village Bean where the friendly and dedicated staff serves up classic espresso drinks as well as seasonal drinks like peppermint mochas and pumpkin spice lattes. They also offer delicious freshly baked muffins, cookies, and scones.
Prefer to leave Santa a plate of cookies made from scratch? Many of our homes have fully equipped kitchens where you can whip up a batch of treats with your little elves. We guarantee Santa and Mrs. Claus will make quick work of these Brown Butter Christmas M&M Cookie Bars.
