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.
