Maple Street Grille Florence Oregon

We have a new Restaurant and a new winner. The Maple Street Grille located at 165 Maple street in Florence Oregon! I went there last night and had the best Pot Roast I have ever had in my 55 years! I asked the help "what the best seller was at this point"? You guessed it, pot roast. On their small plate menu the Mac and Cheese made with some Bleu Cheese is also supposed to be a winner. I will check that one out next time! If you are going to be in Florence Oregon for supper,go to the Maple Street Grille and check them out! They currently are open 4-10 p.m. Closed on Sundays. Call ahead for more info 541-997-9811 Tell them Rob from Coldwell Banker Coast Realestate sent you!

Edwin K Bed and Breakfast

Before I moved to Florence a few years ago, this was a favorite Pet Free Smoke Free place that I enjoyed staying at. I visited there recently and found it to be as good if not better than my memories. The home was built in 1914 and moved a few blocks to its present location. If you stay here, I'm sure you can get the inn keepers to fill you in on the interesting details of this historical home. Being located in Old Town its only a couple blocks to to all the action.

For more information on the different rooms and the great 5 coarse breakfast check out their website at www.edwink.com or phone them at 541-997-8360 or 1-800-833-9465

NAR's New GREEN Designation

I was just notified that I have earned the GREEN designation. This is the newest designation reconized by the Nation Association of Realtors. I can now assist clients with info on Green home constuction and retrofitting. There are several ratings as to how green a home is. There are tax credit benifits too. This designation does not make me a know it all authority. If you have questions contact me, if I can't answer them, I will find out where the answers are. I believe GREEN is the up and coming direction that we are headed.
