This destination was chosen because my son-in-law had once lived there. We had a super size entourage of family: 3 adults and 6 kids, so we packed the multigenerational family into two cars and headed northwest to Florence, Oregon for a 3 1/2 hour road trip. A few more clicks and we booked an affordable overnight stay at Three Rivers Casino Resort, less than 2 miles from coastal town of Florence. At the last minute, we went online to Expedia and searched for family friendly accommodations near our coastal destination of Florence. When visiting my daughter’s family in Medford on spring break, we knew we wanted a day trip to the nearby Oregon Coast.
