Review of Brookings, Oregon


Sleepy Beach Town
Star Rating - 2/14/2021
Brookings is a small town just over the California border on the west Oregon coast. We have owned a home here for 10 years. If you love nature and the slower pace of life, it’s a beautiful place to live. Multiple beaches to visit, plenty of hikes to take, the river is an added bonus mostly during the summer and there are plenty that fish. There are a vast amount of great food options in Brookings. I might add the two bakeries in town are exceptional. I call Brookings a sleepy beach town. Not much night life besides going to dinner or a movie but I think that adds to the charm of this town. You can always take a drive up the coast or to Medford for a change of pace. Shopping is minimal with two grocery stores and Fred’s Meyers as your only real option for clothing shopping. If you are looking for a small town that is safe, friendly, you enjoy the great outdoors, looking for a slower pace of life from the rat race of a big town, minutes from beaches and driving distance to bigger towns...Brookings may be an option for you.
