Newport Forest

Pristine Coastal Sanctuary: 57-Acre Conservation Opportunity

Discover a rare chance to steward a piece of Oregon’s majestic coastal landscape. Located just two miles north of Newport and a mere quarter-mile below the Newport Reservoir, this 57-acre expanse offers a unique blend of ecological richness and strategic conservation value.

An Ecological Haven

This property is a vibrant mosaic of mature forestland, featuring 44 acres of Douglas-fir, western hemlock, Sitka spruce, and western red cedar. With trees ranging from 35 to 50 years old, the land is a thriving habitat where elk roam and eagles soar. The diverse topography—from gentle slopes to steep ridges—creates a varied microclimate that supports a lush understory of ferns, moss, and native berries.

Vital Riparian Corridor

At the heart of this parcel lies 1,400 feet of Anderson Creek. This pristine waterway is home to resident Coastal Cutthroat Trout and serves as a critical artery in the local ecosystem, flowing through the coastal mountains to connect with Big Creek and ultimately the Pacific Ocean. Protecting this corridor ensures the continued health of vital fish habitats and water quality for the region.
