Beautiful Placer Lake has much to offer visitors. All the water falling down from the sky makes Placer Lake a wet location; the month of December is the wettest with most of the rain, and the driest month is July. The Coast Ranges scenery is always beautiful. This lake is so wonderful. A lake nearby is Lint Slough Reservoir, and Alsea Bay Trailer Park is a glorious campground nearby. That right there is a heap already, but it carries on; Placer Lake has

A great place for whitewater paddling in the vicinity of Placer Lake is Drift Creek, and a tour to Holly Beach is always a delightful idea. If you need a place to stay Shamrock Lodgettes is a great choice, and you can have a perfect hiking adventure along the Horse Creek Trail. Throughout the long summer days here at Placer Lake, high temperatures | |

usually reach the 60's. When the night sets in temperatures descend down into the 40's. All through the winter highs are usually in the 50's, and after the sun is down during the winter temperatures at Placer Lake descend into the
30's. You'll really wish for more hours in a day to enjoy all the cool things in the Coast Ranges. Big Creek Log Pond is a nearby lake that you could stop at, and for you golfers we recommend close by Crestview Hills Golf Course.
If you fancy the outdoors you'll fancy it here in the Coast Ranges. Beachside State Park is a brilliant local campground.

That night we set up our four tiki lanterns and sit around the fire pit having some wine coolers and just enjoying each other like we love to do :) kissing and such... And all of a sudden there was some noises in the trees behind our tent.... Again I was scared that it would be a bear (the reason I am scared of bears is that when I was a kid, I saw one chase my daddy out of his shower at our camp). So anyways where was I... Oh yeah... So my husband, the cool kind macho man, goes behind the tent to investigate the issue and he comes back laughing and saying, ''well, woman, you said you love raccoons, right?'' I say, ''yeah, why?''
