Just a fifteen minute drive north east of Brookings lies one of the most beautiful areas in Oregon. It runs beside the Chetco River which rises inland and flows fifty leisurely miles down to the Pacific and the Port of Brookings Harbor. The gateway to this natural jewel is Loeb State Park. Loeb sits on the bank of the Chetco River nestled in a Myrtlewood forest. A gorgeous eight mile drive will carry you from Brookings to the Myrtlewood grove. [ more ]
