I believe that goes for Highways 26, 6, and 18 to and from the coast!:S

Friday travel to is crowded Westbound, and Sunday travel Eastbound.

I have driven both routes many times pulling our 5er, Hy6 is easier and better by far!
The drive from Tillamook to Canon Beach on 101 itself has some steep, but short grades, and Hy26 starts with a climb to the Coast Ranges 1,600' summit in short order.
I find HY6 by far the better road.

As others have said it is an easy drive. After you crest the mountain there is some uneven pavement so take it easy.
