Yup, Badhobz is right... tillamook, oregon coast.. and after the 1/2 days.. of beachs.. you'll get bored.. hop of I5 home before you hit up outlets and costco / trader joe... 
best road trip ever done was visiting Hearst castle. the tour was amazing... (it will require you to go down to cali)
Hearst Castle @ Central Coast of California. Built 1919 and 1947. Today, Hearst Castle is a museum open to the public & a registered as a National Historic Landmark.

The US has so many interesting things to see. That’s like that museum in Malibu… uhhh Getty museum ? Basically a rich guys house turned into a museum.
I always wanted to go see the Winchester house. Apparently the nutbag wife of the gun nut built this sprawling mansion that was always under construction to appease the spirits killed by her husbands guns.

winchester is a "house" (24,000 square feet · 10,000 windows · 2,000 doors · 160 rooms · 52 skylights · 47 stairways and fireplaces · 17 chimneys · 13 bathrooms)
Hearst has 40,000-acre - 165 rooms and 127 acres of gardens, terraces, pools and walkways.
We chose hearst cause it was just along the coast... i was lucky enough to see a zebra at hearst (as it was imported during the days)

This explains why he rejected me when I asked if I could go last time... didn't want any witnesses and I guess he couldn't bring himself to murder me... yet.
