(Lincoln City, Oregon) – Snagging a deal this of year along Oregon's shoreline usually isn't a problem. Everyone is at lower-than-usual rates. Some deals are more deal-like than others, too. (Looking Glass Inn, courtesy photo)

Along come four inns of particular style and grace: three in Lincoln City and one in Cannon Beach. There, the utterance of “cheap” isn't just a noise birds make: these rates are downright low during midweek. And that, after all, is the best way to see the Oregon coast: while no one else is around and the storms are often raging.

Way in the back of the historic Taft District of Lincoln City, right across from scenic Siletz Bay and its multitude of stranded logs, the Looking Glass Inn is a charming Cape Cod-style retreat just steps from this famed central Oregon coast beach. Get lost in treasure hunting or simply playing in the surf – all of it right outside the door. The inn features a variety of accommodations, including whirlpool tub suites, one-bedroom deluxe suites, two-bedroom fireplace suites, and spacious options with multiple beds and living areas. Many rooms boast beautiful bay or ocean views, creating the perfect backdrop for a coastal getaway.

December midweek specials are being offered with discounted rates on select accommodations. Guests can stay in a two queen studio for $89 per night, a king whirlpool suite for $99 per night, or a two bedroom suite for $99 per night. These special rates are available Sunday through Thursday, November 30 to December 18, 2025, based on double occupancy, and exclude the two bedroom fireplace suite. 800-843-4940. www.lookingglass-inn.com 

Upscale and a bit towering, The Shearwater Inn in Lincoln City offers up eye-popping ocean views from practically downtown. There are a bundle of spacious rooms and suites, many with panoramic sights, gas fireplaces, decks or Juliette balconies, and easy access to the beach. Some suites feature full kitchens, king beds, or hide-a-beds, while all rooms include a coffee maker, refrigerator, microwave, hair dryer, smart TV, and free wireless internet. Each morning, a complimentary light continental breakfast is delivered to your room, and in the evening you can unwind at the hosted wine social.

Amenities include panoramic ocean views, spacious rooms and suites, low beach access, gas fireplaces, full kitchens in select suites, whirlpool tubs in grand suites, robes in every room, in-room Left Coast Coffee, outdoor hot tub, and rather striking dog-friendly accommodations. The inn is ideally located next to D River Wayside Park, just blocks from nearly everything.

Shearwater Inn is offering December midweek specials with reduced rates on select accommodations. Guests can stay in a king standard for $89 per night, a king studio for $99 per night, or a one bedroom suite for $129 per night. When you stay three nights or more Sunday through Thursday, you’ll save even more with the Stay Longer & Save rate and receive a complimentary bottle of Oregon red wine to enjoy during your getaway. These special rates are available November 30 through December 18, 2025, and apply to double occupancy. 120 NW Inlet Court, Lincoln City, Oregon. (541) 994-4121. 800-869-8069. www.theshearwaterinn.com

At the northern end of Lincoln City, Pelican Shores Inn offers everyone a stunning view of the rolling surf, perched atop a rather hidden stretch of sands. It's one of the area’s more secluded parts and you have your own set of steps down. At night, the surf is lighted for a truly unique Oregon coast experience. Suites include options such as oceanfront patios, gas fireplaces, and full kitchens. King studios feature sliding glass doors that open directly to the lawn-level patios, while one-bedroom oceanfront suites provide separate bedrooms and kitchens. Families will appreciate the spacious two-bedroom suite with living area and kitchen, and the popular one-bedroom king suite offers two bathrooms, two double beds, and an oceanfront king bedroom.

December Midweek Specials are available until December 18. Stay in a King Deluxe Studio for $99 per night, a One Bedroom Suite for $119 per night, or a One Bedroom Fireplace Suite for $129 per night. These special rates apply Sunday through Thursday are based on double occupancy.  800-705-5505. www.pelicanshores.com

For an inexpensive taste of Cannon Beach, at its southern end sits The Wayside Inn. Overlooking the Tolovana area's parking lot and beach, you get quite the oceanic eyeful. A big plus is easy access to miles of sandy shoreline and the iconic Haystack Rock. When winter comes, watch the tides rage against the concrete barrier or maybe even the rock itself.

There are rooms and suites with gas fireplaces, small kitchens - many with ovens - flat screen TVs, complimentary Wi-Fi, and private decks. After a day at the beach, you can unwind in the heated indoor pool or hot tub, both perfect for year-round repose and relaxation.

Amenities include ocean-view rooms, easy beach access, gas fireplaces, smart TVs, full kitchens in select suites, decks, indoor pool, hot tub, complimentary Wi-Fi, dog-friendly accommodations with special dog baskets, complimentary parking, and all non-smoking rooms.

December midweek specials: Stay in a two queen studio for $89 per night, a one bedroom king suite for $99 per night, or a one bedroom two queen suite for $99 per night. These special rates are offered Sunday through Thursday, until December 18, 2025, and apply to double occupancy. 3339 S. Hemlock Street, Cannon Beach, Oregon, 888-659-6397. www.thewayside-inn.com

Visitors often rate this charming at the top because of its ocean views, quiet surroundings (with only beach sounds) and the way it partners with eco-friendly causes.
