Echo Mountain Park
Neighborhood in Otis, Oregon
Lincoln County 97368
Rebuilding established homes and spacious lots
Ranch-style homes, bungalows and manufactured homes make up the architectural scene in Echo Mountain Park. Some properties were built between the 1970s and early 2000s, with many newer builds coming after 2020, when a fire wiped out around 300 houses. “The community really came together to help one another clean up and rebuild,” says Michelson. “Most houses have been rebuilt as of 2025, but you can still see the effect that the fire had on the surrounding forests.” Homes on the southwest side of the neighborhood, surrounding Yodel Lane, sit on quarter and half-acre lots, while hillside homes on the north side have larger lots measuring up to five acres. Home prices range from $250,000 to $590,000. The neighborhood also has a CAP Index Crime Score of 1 out of 10, the lowest possible score.Cascade Head hiking and fishing along the Salmon River
The Salmon River flows right in the backyard of some homes, along with a few more access points along Highway 18. Anglers can cast a line to reel in Chinook salmon and steelhead trout. The Cascade Head Biosphere Reserve spans over 100,000 acres of forests and shoreline in the Lincoln City area, encompassing the Echo Mountain Park neighborhood and surrounding communities. The 6-mile Rainforest Trail hike winds through meadows and woodlands, with picturesque views of the Pacific shoreline. Lincoln City has 7 miles of public beach, including numerous access points across town, where visitors explore tide pools, hit the surf or have bonfires on the beach. Each June, Lincoln City hosts the Summer Kite Festival, a two-day event complete with kite-making workshops, kite shows and art displays. The city also hosts a sandcastle contest every August. “It only takes 10 to 15 minutes to get to the city,” Michelson says, “and a lot of the Lincoln City businesses are centered around tourism.”Small businesses in Otis and nearby amenities in Lincoln City
