Van Life Adventures: Central Oregon Coast
When the hotter temps hit us in Boise, we hit the road! Cooler temps and sunny weather on the Oregon coast this time of year make for the perfect van get away. We have found the Central Oregon coast to be quieter than areas like Lincoln City, Newport or Cannon Beach.
Multi-Sport Adventure Weekend: Stanley Lake, Idaho
Just a few hours from Boise, Stanley Lake is the perfect family or group camping spot. Fishing, boating, hiking, and mountain biking. All in one beautiful setting with several boondocking as well as reservable campsites. Plus the convenience of being only a 15 minute drive to the charming mountain town of Stanley, Idaho, for supplies and ice cream.
