In a nutshell
the best place to get away from frentic metropolitan madness
Trip through Willamette Valley farmlands
Maria250 Says: A 139-mile drive along two-lane paved highways through Willamette Valley farmlands and Coast Range mountains. From Eugene, the route takes travelers through the western Willamette Valley and over the crumpled ridges of the Coast Range to Mapleton, then follows the Siuslaw...
Billiard place with great music & clips
Maria250 Says: Much fun we had there, trying to play billiard while listen to Johnny Cash's "Hurt", some Bob Dyllon, Jimi Hendrix, and others. They have a big screen there. Had a few rounds of funny (and lousy) played Billiard, and glasses of soda. Enjoyed that place a lot. Nice, calm and...

Long John Silver's: Seafood served fast
Maria250 Says: Long John Silver's specializes in batter-dipped fish, chicken and shrimp, along with fries, cole slaw and hushpuppies. The chain serves nearly four million customers each week. And their2-piece Alaskan Pollock Combo did taste good.
Dependable in quality and taste: Subway

International House Of Pancakes: Come hungry leave happy
Maria250 Says: The first International House of Pancakes opened in a suburb of Los Angeles in 1958 serving a menu of hearty breakfast favorites. Today the restaurant still serves its signature dishes like the original buttermilk pancakes and pigs in blankets: sausage links wrapped in...
Skinner's Lounge: A convenient place to "rinse"...
steedappeal Says: This is the main bar in the Hilton Hotel & Conference complex.Even though I was not staying in the hotel, I was made very welcome. The barman was especially helpful with area advice.So meet, greet and "rinse" a few Oregon Pinot Noirs down the hatch. You'll meet locals and...
Oregon Electric Station & Lounge: All aboard for Whiskey and Beer
steedappeal Says: A local institution with lots of bric-a-brac of Eugene railroad and Nike-wearing runners' glories past. The best selection of spirits in town- especially their vast wall of single-malt whiskeys.Friendly service at the bar, too. Casual.
Maria250 Says: A transportation information clearing site that promotes the use of existing mass transportation options and provides a forum for casual usage ride share matches. Our goals are: to reduce the number of single operated vehicles on the road, to reduce gas consumption, air...
Maria250 Says: Eugene Airport , also known as Mahlon Sweet Field, is owned and operated by the City of Eugene. It is the fifth-largest airport in the Pacific Northwest, providing commercial air service to a six-county region in mid-Oregon. The airport also has an expanded air cargo...
Postal Service: Eugene Government Offices
Maria250 Says: Again, one more option to flee the rain, get your car parked at the postal office, hang out in your truck, write post cards until your permanent wet hair gets dry. And most of all keep smiling. Btw, this Eugene Postal Office is the most structered and cleanest one I have...
Walmart - gotta love it: Live my life in Walmart fashion, says A. Jackson
Maria250 Says: And really, if you think about it from the point of view of the customer, you do want a wide assortment of good quality merchandise, the lowest possible prices, guaranteed satisfaction with what you buy, friendly, knowledgeable service, convenient hours, free parking, a...
steedappeal Says: I had been forewarned by many that Eugene was the "crunchiest" place on earth. More than one person told me to pack those proverbial tie dies for a blast back to the Summer of 68.What I found were highly motivated students, dressed in their Duck Store best, darting...
It's not just a game but (almost) a religion
steedappeal Says: Wow...school spirit is very high at U of O. These are students who love their football- especially during a winning season.I have yet to see if Ivy League schools show that kind of enthusiasm for their home teams.Make sure to book far ahead for game weekend as the hotels,...

caffeine_induced78 Says: The University of Oregon Museum of Art is closed for an expansion project that will double the area of the museum by winter of 2004.

Beware the dishonest taxi driver...
steedappeal Says: Upon arriving at the Amtrak Station, I approached a driver if I might share a cab with the person ahead of me. He took me past my hotel (when I mentioned to him he just ignored me) and dropped the lady off a medium distance away. He then re-started the meter and brought me...
steedappeal Says: Best to wear rubber-soled shoes since this is a very walkable town.Dressing in layers in moderate layers is recommended. Essential to have a rain hat or hooded parka.Overall, Fall type weather. rarely cold and no humidity- perfect!
Spectacular loop drive shows off Oregon
donamama Says: Take a day and soak in the glorious forested mountains just outside Eugene. Take Hwy-58 east to Westfir (stop and enjoy the covered bridge there) then Aufderheide National Scenic Byway goes over the mountains to Hwy-126 which takes you back into Eugene. Along the way stop...
steedappeal Says: It is surprising that so little attention is paid to honoring the locations used to shoot the mega-hit, "National Lampoon's Animal House". Perhaps it speaks to the fact that U of O students are not a heavily Greek bunch and are goal-directed and focused on their future...
Home of the American Running Gods
caffeine_induced78 Says: Hayward field was the original University of Oregon all purpose sports field. After the completion of Autzen Stadium for football Hayward Field was used exclusively for Track and Field events. Eugene is one of the few towns in America where Track and Field events are a major...
