    The spectacular landscape of the Northern Oregon Coast awaits when you stay at this beautiful hand-crafted Oceanside vacation rental. With a superb location just a quarter-mile from the beach and breathtaking views of the coast from not one but two south-facing decks, this homey cabin infuses your vacation with a unique touch of the Pacific Northwest.

    Tucked away in the quiet village of Oceanside, this home is perfect for anyone hoping to escape the crowds of Oregon's more popular coastal towns. Stroll down the hill to the broad, sandy beach, where you can explore tide pools, go kitesurfing, or marvel at the rugged terrain. For a change of pace, hike up to the lighthouse at Cape Meares, or head into nearby Tillamook for a tour of its world-famous Cheese Factory. (We recommend picking up some groceries while you're there - Oceanside only has a couple of restaurants and no markets.)

    The house is built entirely from wood and boasts an unobstructed 15-mile view of the water and shoreline, along with two spacious decks for admiring the scenery. Inside, you'll find two separate sections: a main suite with two bedrooms and a loft, and a smaller studio with a private entrance. There's no TV, but you'll find plenty of books, speakers for your music, and free WiFi for checking your social media and chatting with friends back home. Both the main house and the studio also include their own kitchens with a stove, microwave, fridge, and dishwasher, plus private access to their own deck.

    Escape to Oceanside for an Oregon getaway you'll never forget. Book your reservation today!

    *Please note that cell service is very poor in Oceanside, and will be a little better toward the road or much better in Netarts (two miles away). Please plan accordingly!

    Very cute but old
    Very cute and the view is to die for. The place was not clean at all; we found mice poop and dust everywhere. The place also needs a lot of renovating: things didn’t work, were leaking etc. We did love the coziness of the place.

    The cabin was perfect! So beautiful and had a wonderful view. Make sure to bring some games because they really only had puzzles available! I just wish there was more food in the area. There are 2 restaurants and both of them are only okay.

    Great view to the South. Looking over the other houses. Limited beach view. Large trees close to deck block most of beach and water view. Deck is in need of maintenance.

    Stunning view and nice area
    We got a very great time staying, this place are great be able to take guests more than 6 or 8. Everything quite comfortable but it kind of need some care and deep clean up. We’re there at July the night time is still slightly cold and day time you got sun shine through, it can be hot if they have some fan would be good. Overall good visit

    Funky with incredible views
    The location was absolutely stunning. Beautiful views and natural light. There were 2 problems: no curtains in the bedrooms; & a shower with pressure like Niagara Falls. For light sleepers, the creaky wood floors could be an issue. Another extreme advantage was the south-facing aspect, and the wonderful tree, as wind didn't seem to hit the house with much force (we've stayed in places where the windows buckled in a storm). We will definitely stay there again.

    Wonderful stay
    We really enjoyed our stay at this beautiful quiet property. We had a couple rainy days so we enjoyed the view and a puzzle. Close to the beach and a great sunset on tunnel beach. It is a rustic stay that could use some more lighting and mirrors in bedrooms and curtains on bedroom windows but it was a great stay.

    Great spot on the Oregon Coast
    We had a very enjoyable stay here. The beds were comfortable and the view was amazing. We loved having a washer and dryer. The only down side was it was cold in the house and a little space heater on the main floor was not enough to keep my 80 year old Mom warm at night. It got into the low 30’s. We were able to move the big heater from the loft to the main floor which helped. We were expecting an oven to bake our pizza but the item available to us was some kind of microwave/convection oven combo. Needless to say it did not cook our pizza very well. Bummer! Overall a good experience but no directions on how to work/run things in the house, emergency numbers, info on things to do, or local info.

    Location over amenities
    Beautiful location and views in a rustic, cabin-like house. No TV or cell service which provides an extra escape to the beach! Here are a few pros and cons to our experience: Pros: Good house heater and hot water, amazing views from most of the house, Short walk down the hill to the beach, binoculars and beach towels provided. There was a washer and dryer and a few laundry soap pods and a vacuum to tidy up yourself mid stay. Cons: The wood floors, rugs, and cabinets are worn and stained and look sort of dirty. The stairs are super creaky and you notice that when others are sleeping. The kitchen was full of random old stuff and some of the glass bowls and plates were cracked so you had to be cautious while hand washing them which we had to do because the dishwasher was broken. It was full of warm stinky water when we arrived and was semi disassembled on the counter. We emailed Vacasa 3 times and never heard back which was disappointing . Since we didn't really want to deal with repair people coming in during our stay we didn't push it further but communication or a "heads-up" before hand would have be courteous. The kitchen lacked some essential items, and a few of the towels and linens smelled sour and should be replaced and there were dust bunnies under the bed. A little more attention to those details would be an inexpensive upgrade and make it feel so much more comfortable to the guests. What I wish I had brought: a small kitchen knife, slippers (since it's all hardwood and they request shoes off and my son got a sliver in his foot), a cooking oil, a blow dryer since none was there as advertised, and my own pillows since I noticed some questionable stains. The upstairs/ main area sleeps 6, and the lower area has a separate locked off of outdoor access and that sleeps 3 more if needed. That's where the 2nd shower (the nicer shower) and toilet are located and there's a mini kitchen down there as well. We had a great time and no regrets about our choice to stay there because of the location, but its always nice to know the details ahead of time.
