Chetco Valley Historical Society Museum


Once a stagecoach stop, the 1857 Blake House is now home to this museum. Stop in to see a quilt from 1844, an old Native American cedar canoe and an iron face supposedly cast to resemble Queen Elizabeth I. Outside is the 'world's largest Monterey cypress.' Off-hours private tours are possible: call Julie Paine on 541-469-3144.
