Geocache Description:

Easy terrain but well-hidden and not visible.

Hobbit House is 8.8 miles east of Highway 42 in Myrtle Point, Oregon on a tranquil country farm road. Plan a picnic among the myrtle trees or stay the night if you please.

From hwy 42, go east on Ash St.
Meander through the hills and along the river.
Observe the 25 mph curves, straight past Weekly Creek Rd.
and across a concrete span.

Note the old 3-story house at 6.2 miles, which tells tales of generations past.

Onward across the bold new span, but watch carefully for the turn.

You will shortly spy a forest of hobbit houses -- even one reserved for bees -- but only one at these coordinates:
N 43° 06.716', W 124° 04.776'.
