The park features 5 acres of formal gardens including a rose-testing plot and Japanese lily pond, as well as ocean views and beach access. In the cooler months, visitors can watch storms and migrating whales from the park's sandstone cliffs. Another seasonal attraction is the Shore Acres Holiday Lights, lasting from Thanksgiving to New Year's Eve, when the gardens are decorated with lights and illuminated sculptures. Shore Acres was originally an estate owned by Louis J. Simpson, a Coos County timber baron and son of shipping magnate Asa Meade Simpson. After fire and financial losses devastated his estate holdings, Simpson sold the land to the State of Oregon for use as a park in 1942. The state, which acquired park additions from other owners between 1956 and 1980, began restoring the garden in 1970.

Amazing gardens, walk and short hike along the cliffs and beach. They cover the gardens with lights around Christmas.
A former estate, Shore Acres features a fantastic garden in addition to stunning ocean views and trails. About a 45 minute drive approximately 25 miles north of Bandon, adjacent to Cape Arago State Park. Access through Coos Bay/Charleston.
