I will second the Olympic park/Lake Crescent suggestion. We rented a house on the Peninsula. It was in a small neighborhood but there was a lake. It was west of Port Angeles, that' all I can remember. It was late September so we didn't do any lake activities. The entire Olympic Peninsula is not a bad drive to get to all the different areas. Airbnb should have some good options.

The one on Hardy Street is great if you like super casual setting. Beer selection is pretty large. I find the menu has a little something for everyone, from a grilled tuna salad to basic bar-food pizza. Also a fan of the fried pimento cheese app. If the weather is nice the patio is a fun place to hang out with drinks.

I also had flu like symptoms after 2nd dose for about 48 hours still not as bad as getting shingles.

How can he have an offer from LSU already ? Or anywhere else ? A school cannot make official contact with a high school recruit until the summer following junior year of high school.
That said, this kid has a wonderful future. Wish him the best.

... and then he would probably be given additional exemptions because his presence in the filed would generate interest on all levels. The Tour is going to reward talent like his. No sponsor is going to penalize him for his accomplishments at the Amex if he decides to take advantage of earning his card early.

We were there in September. Def spend some time relaxing on the porch area of the Carolina hotel with drinks from the Ryder Cup Lounge. In September they were expanding the outdoor area outside of the Ryder Cup Lounge with more patio room and fire pits. That specific area and the rocking chairs at the main clubhouse overlooking 18 (on NO. 2) are 2 of the best seats to have a drink and soak in the atmosphere. The Cradle is also an excellent way to spend some time. If the outdoor bar over at the Pinecrest Inn in the Village is open stop there too. Few more locals stop by there. Enjoy your trip.

We did this in early/mid October. Flew into Portland, drove to Canon Beach. Spent 2 nights at the Hallmark resort there, then spent next 3 days town hoping as we drove south. Near Canon Beach is Ecola State Park, that has a couple nice hikes. Beaches are nice and its easy to have a fire on them. The restaurants were hit or miss as far as being open, not sure if it was because we were there early in the week or it was a seasonal thing. We had an inconsistent marine layer the whole week, but it definitely didn't spoil anything. Pacific City was another night we spent and there's a big dune you can climb with nice views. Other spots have rockier beaches, or Devil's Churn (?) is a spot where you can walk down and out onto the volcanic rock as the wave crash near you. We found it a very cool experience. We had business in Corvallis, so we went there, then doubled back to coast, drove south from Florence and spent 2 nights at Bandon Dunes. Florence has some nice restaurants. Coos Bay seemed like it would be a good stop too. Some of the areas near Bandon you can rent dune buggies and sandboard. There is also whale watching out of Depoe Bay.
We loosely followed one of the itineraries we found online, just start looking at a few. If you like natural scenery, it really is a great roadtrip. There is another thread where I asked same question and responses were helpful.

Bumping this thread to thank all those who replied.

The Oregon Coast is truly spectacular. I think Devil's Churn and the Dunes in Pacific City were my favorites. We had a great mix of weather, some marine layer and some sun. The scenery everywhere we went was just tremendous. Also made it to Bandon Dunes and spent a day in Willamette Valley. Everyplace we went lived up to the recommendations. Only thing I would tell others to skip ...Tillamook Cheese factory. Love the cheese, but honestly thought place was a tourist trap.
Again, thanks for the tips.

Agreed. It will be interesting in the aftermath to see how much he allows her incompetence to show. They are both about as helpful as a hemorrhoid.

Planning a trip there in late September. Any "must-dos?" Will likely be staying in Port Angeles area.

Thanks
