★★★ 1. Clarion Inn Surfrider Resort3115 NW Highway 101, Depoe Bay, OR 97341 Surfrider Resort, a 2013 addition to the list of Clarion properties, has a magnificent location right on the rocky coast of central Oregon, looking down on a small sandy cove between two cliff-lined promontories, right on the south side of Lincoln Beach, though its address gives the town as Depoe Bay, the center of which is 2 miles south. US 101 runs right past the resort, bordered on the far side by lush forest, part of Fogarty Creek State Park. The hotel has its own restaurant, also named Surfrider, overlooking the ocean and so a perfect location for whale-watching, as well as enjoying the sunset. All accommodations contain a microwave; some have one or more of a balcony, hot tub bath and kitchenette. The other main hotel amenities are a fitness center, indoor saltwater pool and a business center. |
