Welcome to Wecoma
Though the name comes from a Native American word translating to “sea,” the word “wecoma” has also morphed into a salutation to welcome newcomers to this beachside neighborhood. Wecoma Beach is the first (as in northernmost) of the six “pearl” districts that fall in a vertical line in the Lincoln City string. Beginning with Wecoma Beach, six more districts fall neatly beneath. “It’s one of the more established areas in north Lincoln City. That’s where you have your shopping and banking, your community center, lots of restaurants and miles of sandy beaches,” says Dennis Regen, Principal Broker and owner of Taylor & Taylor Realty Company. Regen has been licensed since 1981 and has sold numerous homes in Wecoma Beach. “Everything west of the highway is walking distance to the beach.”
Lincoln City Beach, Devils Lake and Connie Hansen Garden Conservancy
Residents have multiple spots to explore the miles of Oregon coastline and the temperate coastal weather. At Lincoln City Beach Access and Oceanlake Access, flying kites, sitting around bonfires and exploring tidepools are all popular activities. Another popular recreational spot is Devils Lake where, according to Regen, lots of people like to do their jet skiing, fishing and kayaking. For non-water recreation, Dorchester Park includes tennis and pickleball courts and Wecoma Park’s playground is a great place to relax and play thanks to its basketball court and playground. The Connie Hansen Garden Conservancy is not only full of rhododendrons and azaleas but it’s also a pet-friendly spot and a tranquil space to soak in nature.
