One of the Oregon Coast's best-kept secrets is the neat and friendly little town of Yachats
(ya- hots ). Lying at the base of massive Cape Perpetua, Yachats offers the memorable
scenery of a rugged and windswept land. People come here and to small, remote inns and
B&Bs just south of town to get away from it all, which isn't hard to do along this relat-

For a bit of Yachats' history, visit the Little Log Church & Museum ( 541-547-3976;
