Langlois is a charming historic town in Curry County, Oregon, originally established in 1881 as a pioneer settlement along the Oregon coastline. The town's name, which was chosen in honor of early Oregon pioneer William Langlois, is commonly mispronounced and is officially pronounced as "Langless," a nod to the phonetic spelling of Langlois' name in the 1860 Federal Census. Throughout the late 19th and early 20th centuries, the town was famed for its blue cheese production, though its cheese factory was destroyed in a fire in the mid-1950s. Today, visitors can enjoy windsurfing and kiteboarding at Floras Lake or hike and explore historic lighthouses at Cape Blanco State Park. World-famous hot dogs are also served up at the Langlois Market, which has also served delicious deli sandwiches for more than half a decade.
