If you have ever wanted to run away to your "island", here'e your
chance.  Our home is in a beautiful wooded area, on Siltcoos Lake,
just south of Florence, Oregon.  There is no road to our house & it 
is
accessible only by boat  Our home is located within sight of a small
RV park where we keep a boat moored.  Our 16' aluminum boat with 28 
HP
electric start outboard motor, is available for your pleasant 5 
minute
boat ride to our house, & to explore the lake, go fishing, etc.

Siltcoos Lake is the largest lake on the Oregon coast. The lake is
approx 3,200 acres in size & about 2 or 3 miles across the longest
part of the lake.  In a direct line, the Pacific ocean is 4 or 5 
miles
to the west.  By road (from the RV park), it’s about 12 or 13 miles 
to
the ocean.  Old Town Florence & the Siuslaw River are about 11 miles.
 There are many nice shops & restaurants for you to enjoy in 
Florence. 

Our home is approx 1,300 sq feet, with two  bedrooms & one bathroom. 
The main bedroom has a king size bed, with a view of the lake.  The
second bedroom has a queen size bed.  The main part of the house has
the kitchen, dining area, & living room, with great views of the 
lake.
 Over the last several years, we have done major remodeling of the
house, including new plumbing & electrical systems, new kitchen &
bathroom cabinets, new countertops, new sink, refrigerator, down 
draft
range, etc.  Although I’ve still got some work to do, everything is
functional & our home is cozy & comfortable.

Our home sits on 3.4 wooded acres, with a hillside forest behind us. 
Our property has several hundred feet of wooded lakefront, with a
walkway from the house down to the dock.  At times, you may see
migratory waterbirds, osprey, eagle, heron, otters, beaver, deer,
racoons, chipmunks, squirrels, & many different varieties of birds. 
The lake has a variety of freshwater fish, including trout, 
largemouth
bass, yellow perch, bluegills, crappies, & bullheads.  The
west end of the lake has a small stream, the Siltcoos River, which
flows into the ocean.  There is a good run of native Coho salmon 
which
come from the ocean, move up the river, & then back into the lake. 
When the fall rains come, they swim upstram into the small tributary
creeks , so they can spawn.  In recent years, fishermen have once
again been allowed to fish for salmon in the lake, starting on 
October
1st each year.

Florence is located on the middle of the Oregon coast.  There are
miles of huge sand dunes to the south & gorgeous rugged rocky
coastline to the north.  10 miles north of Florence, Heceta head
lighthouse is one of the most beautiful lighthouses on the west 
coast.
The entire area is a great spot to relax & enjoy nature, or do some
sightseeing & exploring at the beach.

Summertime temperatures are mild, typically in the mid 60's & 70's,
with sunshine & relatively low humidity.
