My group and I spent three days here while road tripping along the west coast, and Austin's location was exactly what we were looking for! It's located about 10 min from the downtown area and easy to get to in a car (there was public transportation near by as well). We were able to take a day trip to cannon beach as well and spend some time outdoors, but this was an ideal place to hang in for the night as well. Covid made finding locations to eat difficult, but Austin has a book of recommendations that we were able to use. Thanks for a great trip!
