We thought Gold Beach was a small coastal tourist site – 2,000 residents, lots of beach, a few cafes open for breakfast/lunch and a couple of higher-end dinner places. Mostly it was as wide as Route 101 for 2 miles.
Well, Neskowin, the name itself, is longer than the “town.” Or, do we say “place”? There’s a post office but no one is sure if it’s still open or not. The 150 site RV park were camped in is bigger than the whole of Neskowin. It does have an ice cream shop and beach side condos - what else does it need??? The ?streets? are paved narrow paths. You need to constantly look for on-coming traffic because there is no passing space. With the hills and vegetation, it was difficult to see whether the path was available or not. On one occasion, the truck coming towards us had to back up and another time the vehicle stapped and let us slide by them. Overall there is little traffic as there is little to see!
