Joint Press Release – Tillamook County Sheriff’s Office/Tillamook Fire District
On May 21, 2021, Tillamook Fire District (TFD) was dispatched to a reported structure fire at the Tillamook Coast RV Park at 85 3rd St. West in Tillamook. As with all structure fires in Tillamook County, this call was dispatched as a 2nd Alarm Fire. In cases of a 2nd Alarm, other fire agencies within the county automatically respond to assist with fighting the fire and to cover the primary department’s district during the emergency.
According to Fire Chief Daron Bement, TFD sent two fire engines and one rescue truck to the scene and TFD personnel arrived on scene four minutes after being dispatched. “When our crews arrived, they found a heavily involved RV trailer fire. Neighbors had removed gas cans and generators that were near the trailer and were attempting to fight the fire with garden hoses.”

The history of tourist lodging on the Oregon coast runs an interesting evolutionary route: from tent cities, to cabins, auto parks, a unique thing called motor lodges, and then finally to motels, with hotels running a parallel existence in some ways.
On the north Oregon coast, tourism started off sooner as trains started coming to Seaside from Portland about 1880. On the southern coast – according to the Coos History Museum and the Oregon Coast Historical Railway Museum in Coos Bay – it wasn’t until 1916 that trains brought visitors there. In some places, like Newport, people started coming by boat first.
