We drove through this rather large coastal city while on our way to visit family in Charleston, OR…read morefor the weekend. It's known as Oregon's 'Bay Area', and it definitely has that feel with hills and all. Coos Bay is a major port for maritime commerce, namely lumber. Population is over 15,000. It's home to the Oregon Dunes National Recreation Area and hometown of iconic runner Steve Prefontaine. It offers natural beauty for outdoor adventures at Shore Acres State Park and Sunset Bay State Park. There's plenty of hiking and storm watching opportunities. Golden and Silver Falls are popular hiking destinations. If you're a gambler, the Mill Casino is also a popular destination offering lodging at their hotel and RV park. Visit the Marshfield District for shops, restaurants, galleries, historic buildings, museums and theaters. And don't forget the fresh seafood abound. One of our favorite things while driving along highway 101. If you're in the area, I recommend stopping to take in what this coastal city has to offer!

The history of Coos Bay dates back to the days of Lewis and Clark. One of the most famous…read moreresidents, Coos Bay was the birth place of Steve Prefointaine. People come from around the world to participate in the memorial race that was set up in his memory. But, what is Coos Bay known for today, first, world class golf (not my thing), but they are known for it. Second, the sand dunes. The Umpqua Dunes in northern Coos County are the widest and highest in the Oregon Dunes National Recreation Area. This section of dunes is closed to off-highway vehicles, so hikers love them. Whether you are looking for hiking, beach exploring, mountain biking, sea lion watching .... it's all within a short distance of Coos Bay. Kind of the hub for the Oregon Coast if you are in the middle region of the state.

Post Office building in North Bend is closed temporarily for repairs. Notice is on the window where…read moreto deliver outgoing mail. I don't own a car. I wanted to ask if they collect outgoing mail from the blue mail receptacle outside the building. I called the 800 number listed online for all the post offices in the area. Couldn't talk to an agent because the computer wanted this information or that information and was giving me solutions to problems that I wasn't experiencing. This post office, and USPS in general, has the worst automated customer service system in existence. When I want to talk to an agent, i expect to be connected to an agent. After paying an additional $32 to have a letter sent - not wanting to assume that they pick up mail from the receptacle and it stay there until they reopen - it turns out that they do still pick up mail from the receptacle. The notice on the window doesn't say so.

I was thrilled when north bend began to offer flights twice weekly to denver from United, which would help travelers in this area immensely. Aside from the price, which is not within the airport's control, the service is a little lacking. Went through TSA on my way out, the agent checking boarding passes missed my KTN clearance. Attempting to go through security, another agent insisted I remove shoes and became adamant I didn't have TSA KTN clearance, even though it was right on my boarding document. After some back and forth, he finally let me through. (This airport has limited ktn service - you have to unbundle everything - the only saving grace is that you get to keep your shoes on). It really shouldn't be that difficult! Then, after arriving back from said trip, I waited 45 minutes to get my baggage. 45 minutes? The carousel ran for 15 minutes with NO bags appearing. When it did start, the bags were sporadic in delivery. I attempted to find someone to ask why it was taking so long but no one seemed to know. This airport has 1 baggage claim and lands maybe 2-3 commercial flights per day. And smaller planes at that. If you're thinking that flying out of a smaller regional airport might save you time, think again. My other experiences here have been similar. Security and baggage claim through DIA is faster! Very frustrating - seems like some training is needed here!
