Clementine's Guest House - Astoria. This is technically two buildings. An engaging historic experience, topped off by fine foods. There's even a vacation rental available next door. It’s a stately Victorian where each room is stylishly decorated in a mix of Asian and European furnishings, with flowers from their private garden. All rooms have private baths, luxury linens and some with fireplaces or Jacuzzi tubs. Views of Columbia River, mountains or city. Guests can meet others in the common area in the afternoon for complimentary beverages. Free wi-fi, cable TV. Large open for conservations and meeting new people.

Next door is the historic 1852 Job Ross vacation rental, which was used as a Moose Temple lodge and a Mormon church over the decades. That one sleeps 4 to 6. There’s a kitchen, many historic amenities, multiple bedrooms, bath. Look for free parking on this north Oregon street – a bit of a treasured find. 847 Exchange Street. Astoria, Oregon. 503-325-2005. Website.

Historic House in Hammond – 580 Russell. 6000 square feet of north Oregon coast history. This 1905 beauty actually housed officers and their families from Fort Stevens for about 50 years.

On its vacation rental management page it’s known as the 580 Russell St. house, but it’s better known as the Commander’s Quarters. It was, after all, featured on the show Ghost Adventures. The management company running it, Beach House Vacation Homes, says nope, it’s not actually haunted. People get carried away with the legends of old buildings, it seems.

Also, it contains all the wonders of the modern world. There’s even a basement “meeting room” where military commanders huddled together and strategized, now a recreation paradise of fun. Amenities include: widescreen TV, pool table, free wireless throughout and beautiful wicker furniture gracing the beautiful wrap-around deck. Six bedrooms and room for six cars. Main floor has one queen bedroom and one full bathroom w/shower. Second floor has three queen bedrooms and one king bedroom with two bathrooms. Attic level has two twins in entry way.
