We’re Berty and Emily Mandagie, husband and wife travelers, photographers, and journalists! This blog lives to inspire outdoor adventure, inspired by our home in the rainy Pacific Northwest. Stay awhile and receive the best photo tips for your next journey to the PNW. Department of the Interior, to in fact make the Curry County coastline a National Park! While that didn’t happen, it’s still a beloved location in Oregon, and protected and enjoyed by many still to this day. We’ve created one below (actually, including all of the Southern Oregon Coast!) and highlighted the best spots to stop along this section of Highway 101.
It provides solid shade for just about any outdoor event . Get ready for camping season and be sure to pick the outdoor shelter essential . Now if you think Samuel H Boardman was done showing off, you have been mistaken! On top of gorgeous views and sea stacks around every corner, it also has some pretty cool sand dunes!
Here at House Rock Viewpoint, you’ll find the commemorative statue of the park’s namesake – the superintendent Samuel H Boardman. Between here and Cape Ferrelo, there is a 4-mile trail with many offshoots and secluded beaches for a quiet adventure on the Oregon Coast. Samuel H. Boardman Scenic Corridor is located in the southwest corner of Oregon. Found along the Oregon Coast Ozark Trail Sleeping Bags Highway (Highway 101), Samuel H. Boardman is a 12 mile-stretch of attractions that are easily accessible right off the road. There is no official visitor center, only signs along the highway indicating you are entering the corridor. Cape Ferrelo Viewpoint is a short, 1-mile long Oregon coast hike that leads to some of the most stunning Oregon coast photography opportunities!
You can easily stop your trip at the viewpoint, and soak in the incredible views it has to offer, including views of the Natural Bridges. The sand dunes don’t get their sand from the beach, but actually by the eroding sandstone cliffs from above. It’s a little difficult to walk across the sand for this 1.1-mile loop (it’s fairly steep!), so we suggest wearing sandals like Tevas. This way, you can take them off when you just want to put your toes in the sand.
In the early 1900s, the land of Samuel H. Boardman was mostly owned by private owners, holding small plots all across this part of the Oregon Coast in Curry County. This Ozark Trail tent sets up quickly and easily without the use of straps . The frame is constructed with a rust-resistant steel and it comes with a water-resistant fabric top . Arch Rock is exactly what it sounds like – an arched rock!
Eroded by thousands of years of waves slamming into it, you won’t miss its perfectly round center. Here, there are also several other offshore sea stacks and islands to discover (like this cool one above) – a perfect place to capture an Oregon coast sunset. This is where many people stop and set up Ozark Trail Canopies tripods to shoot sunrise and sunset. Here you’ll find a memorial to Dr. Samuel Dicken, who first envisioned the Oregon Coast Trail. Expect a wooden platform and some incredible views of the aches. Keep reading because we’re going to share with you two routes – the safe one, and the dangerous one.
The best time to visit Samuel H. Boardman Scenic Corridor is during late summer and early fall. These times in the Pacific Northwest generally include the fewest rainy days, so you can enjoy as many gorgeous coastal Ozark Trail Canopies sunsets as possible. Late August to mid-October is considered an optimal time to visit. This is when most tourists and families have returned home for the school year, and the trails are less crowded.

Because adventure is not a destination; it’s a lifestyle. If you are driving from Northern California up the Oregon coast, we suggest stopping here for breakfast, to begin your day of adventure.
