Giving Back

How Every Pacific View Lodging Stay Supports the Oregon Coast

At Pacific View Lodging, we believe travel should do more than create great memories—it should also help protect the places that make those memories possible. Through our partnership with Kind Traveler’s Every Stay Gives Back program, $2 from every stay supports local marine conservation on the Oregon Coast.

Whether you book directly with us or through one of our online travel partners like Airbnb, Vrbo, or Booking.com, every stay contributes. It is a simple way for travel to give back to the coast, marine life, and local communities that make this region so special.

Our Commitment to Sustainable Coastal Travel

We are proud to support responsible tourism practices that help protect the Oregon Coast while enhancing the guest experience. For us, sustainability is not just about reducing impact—it is also about investing in the natural places and local organizations that help this coastline thrive.

Guests come here for rugged shorelines, tidepools, migrating whales, nesting seabirds, and the unforgettable beauty of the Pacific. Those experiences are worth protecting, and every guest stay helps support the future of this incredible coast.

Our Partnership with Friends of Otter Rock

Guests of Pacific View Lodging help support Friends of Otter Rock through Kind Traveler’s Every Stay Gives Back program. The mission of Friends of Otter Rock is to help protect and preserve rocky shore intertidal life, nesting and migrating seabirds, marine mammals, and the natural and cultural resources of the Otter Rock area.

Through this community impact program, $2 is given by each guest that stays with us to help support Friends of Otter Rock. 100% of those funds are given directly to Friends of Otter Rock to support conservation, education, and outreach connected to this remarkable part of the Oregon Coast.

It is a meaningful partnership because it connects travel with local stewardship. Guests are not just visiting the coast—they are helping care for it.

From Guest Stays to Real Coastal Stewardship

One of the most meaningful outcomes of this program is the way guest stays directly support the people doing the work on the shoreline. From interns leading tidepool conversations to volunteers helping protect seabird nesting habitat, every stay helps turn a visit into long-term stewardship.

Explore Otter Rock During Your Stay

Otter Rock is an easy coastal stop for guests staying in Depoe Bay and nearby Pacific View Lodging properties. Visitors can explore the area’s scenic shoreline, learn more about local marine ecosystems, and experience one of the Oregon Coast’s most ecologically important areas firsthand.

From Depoe Bay, head south on Highway 101 for about five miles, then turn west onto Otter Crest Loop and follow signs toward the Otter Rock area. It is a beautiful outing for families, nature lovers, photographers, and anyone who wants to experience the coast in a deeper way.
