The Chelan is an older set of condominiums and many of the units lack the modern luxury touches. But they are comfortable and the location/view cannot be beat. You are steps away from a set of steps leading down to the beach. Just sitting outside your unit, coffee or wine in hand, enjoying the morning haze or the evening sunset, to the sound of crashing surf...just cannot be beat. You have a fantastic view of the entire length of Neskowin beach.
The Chelan is also easy walking distance to the Neskowing store and the Hawk Creek Cafe for your morning coffee and casual dining needs!
I had unit 5, which is a first level unit with two bedrooms. Very cozy with a nice fireplace. They provide fire logs! The appliances were all up to date and allowed for in-house cooking when not inclined to go out. The cable TV worked well, with a full range of channels and the wifi was very strong and surprisingly fast!
Only downside to the lower level units is that people from other units do walk by on their way to the beach, so you have to be conscious of people looking into the front living area or, if you leave the beach-side door open, the occasional dog or child wandering in.
Notwithstanding that, the Chelan provides very good value and I would not hesitate to stay there again...though I might try to get an upper unit if they were available! :-) read more
