Before Ted left for the summer, we spent a couple of days in Nehalem, a sweet town on the Oregon Coast near Manzanita Beach. Our intent was not only to relax and enjoy each other's company in some beautiful new surroundings, but also to scope out the charming North Fork 53 Bed & Breakfast for an upcoming wedding Ted was photographing.
We have been fans of B&Bs since our first encounter with one in Castle Combe, England. There's something so sweet and romantic about staying in a B&B. Yeah, Ted and I are already old folks... That's okay, though. We embrace it!
We were absolutely smitten with the house, the food, and the grounds. Ana,
the bed and breakfast manager, made us feel right at home immediately!
She even had homemade treats in the fridge waiting for us. Our whole
stay was just as sweet.
Our first floor room was simple and cozy.
The surrounding garden and trees were a haven for lovely walks and
laying in the grass. Absolutely heaven. Did I mention that the
included breakfast was delicious and fresh, with roasted veggies
straight from their organic garden?! Um, best deal ever!
The only
minor problem we encountered was that we weren't able to figure out our
private bathroom's bathtub--probably just us being clueless--but even
that was an unexpected delight, because we discovered that the upstairs
bathroom had a beautiful walk-in shower! It was meant to be, I guess. We enjoyed our stay there so much I'm already dreaming of our next stay.
