Although I think SC1 is being terribly cynical and not totally accurate, where Deliverance was filmed isn't completely relevant to the comment. Deliverance-type settings can be found in parts of NC as well as rural/remote areas of lots of states, and not just in the south.

It is a lovely small beach town with just a main street that goes to the beach. It looks like OD in the late 1950's early 1960's. Very wide long beach, fires on the beach at night, horses during the day. Never crowded. This picture was taken in July. See how many people are on the beach. It is the west coast so the daytime temps in the Summer can be cool.

That may have been the part at the end where the family had sort of a boarding house and took in the two men and got them back to health etc. I believe that was near Sylva.

This is the website. From what I have read it would be way too small of a town for me. But it looks beautiful.

Cannon Beach is a few miles away. It has many shops and shopping. Remember the coast of Oregon is mostly a vacation area. Portland is 1.5 hours away. I love it there and would have no problem living there except my family has moved back to the East Coast, so I am stuck here.

Must remember the difference laid back and boring is a million dollars.
