Courtesy of Passport America, we discovered this hidden gem of an RV Resort right on Tenmile Lake just off the lower Oregon coast. All of the waterfront sites were taken, but the one in front of us was booked and no one moved in until a day later - fortunately it hasn't removed our waterfront view. The resort has a comprehensive store (also sells bait and fishing licenses), laundromat, Pizza-N-Pub, Rec Hall and separate Games Room with pool table and pinball machines. They hold a lot of social activities here for the town. As part of this complex, they have a "village" area down the back where you can purchase deeded lots that have all the utilities. For $105 per month, you have access to the utilities plus 3 months ground maintenance for those who go away in their RV for that period each year. The lots have space for you to build a small cabin, cover for the largest RV and room for a boat and car. Members here, Tawana & Charles took us to their church today and the community was the friendliest we have encountered so far. After church they drove us to the nearby town of Winchester Bay where we had lunch in Kitty's Kitchen (really a fantastic Christmas Shop that also serves home cooked meals & dessert pies) where we met Kitty and her daughter Rebecca played Waltzing Matilda for us. There is an oyster farm at this bay, and I couldn't resist buying a pint container of shucked oysters lifted out of the sea this morning. We have not found a restaurant here in the US that serves fresh oysters, only fried, so I am looking forward to trying the oysters with some fresh lemon juice tonight (if I can wait that long!).
