My wife and I stayed at the Cannery Pier Hotel. Very nice! Every room overlooks the water. This is where most of the cast stayed as well.

I think there are a couple out towards the Goonies house.
There's one of them up on 15th I think it is that would be nice/local to downtown.
I live here so I don't usually stay in hotels, but go by the reviews of friends that come to visit.
The Hotel Elliot is right downtown and the staff are very friendly. It is a historic location and has even been featured in a few movies filmed here!

We stayed at Schooner's Cove Inn in Cannon Beach...a bit of a drive to Astoria, but so worth it to be on the beach with Haystack rock and a stone's throw (ha ha) from Ecola Park.

Ecola Inn in Cannon Beach, great family owned and operated inn, every room has a beach view and it's located directly on the beach....

I thought some of them were at the Hotel Elliot next to the Liberty Theatre. Corey's bus was at the Holiday Inn Express this morning.

I'm not sure where all of them stayed, but Jeff Cohen, Joey Pants, and Curt Hanson (and the Oxygen Production guys) were at Cannery Pier - we were all out in the common area for breakfast together on Sunday.

Did you leave before Corey started signing after the concert.

Did you see Daisy sing The Goonies R' Good Enough?


I stayed there in 05!!!! This time I was down the street at the Dunes. Just bought a house so I was trying to save money. Probably still ended up spending over a grand........good thing I live close.

My friends and I pitched tents one night at Ft. Stevens state park in Oregon, and the next night in Cape Disappointment State Park in Washington. They both had hot shower facilities, beach access, outlets for charging cell phones, etc. The atmosphere at both parks was some of the best parts of our trip.

The yurts at both parks would have been nice too, but they require advance reservation unless it's a Monday night in January (which can be surprisingly nice despite the season), and the Yurts at Ft. Stevens are situated in an ugly area, a bit close together.

Yeah we were at the pier, as was the rest of the cast. Corey's entourage was too big, so they were at the Holiday Inn Express. The pier was nice and the spa/sauna combo came in handy for the daily morning recovery :)
