I'm looking for a break from life for a few days and decided a trip to the coast was what I need. I'm looking for suggestions on a place to stay where I can enjoy some surf action (I want to watch the waves, not ride them ... it's Winter!). Someplace moderately priced, decent view preferably right on the ocean, fireplace, maybe a balcony. Someplace I can watch the surf on the shore and retreat back inside to sit by the fire. Unfortunately, I will be traveling solo so not much need for a jacuzzi/hot tub. I'm pretty well open to anything from Northern Oregon to Vancouver Island. Any thoughts?
