Cozy Manzanita beach bungalow just across from the sand, this charming Caretaker’s Bungalow offers ocean proximity, walkable access to town, and a warm, relaxed coastal feel—perfect for a slower, more comfortable stay on the Oregon Coast.

Located just across from Manzanita Beach, this inviting two-bedroom bungalow makes it easy to slip into beach life. Morning walks along the sand, coffee with the ocean nearby, and evenings back by the fire—it’s all right here, without needing to go far.

Inside, the home feels calm, light-filled, and welcoming. The living space is centered around a cozy fireplace, making it an especially nice place to settle in after a day outside—whether that’s coming in from the beach on a sunny afternoon or warming up after a classic Oregon Coast rainy day.

The layout is simple and comfortable, ideal for couples or small groups looking for a place that feels easy and lived-in in the best way. The kitchen and dining area are set up for relaxed meals at home, while town is just a short walk away if you’d rather head out for coffee, dinner, or a stroll through Manzanita’s local shops.

Both bedrooms are designed with comfort in mind, offering a restful place to recharge after full days at the beach. It’s the kind of home where you can slow down, unplug a bit, and settle into the rhythm of the coast.

Step outside, and the beach is just moments away—close enough to hear the ocean and feel part of it, while still enjoying a quiet, tucked-in setting.

If you’re looking for a cozy Manzanita rental near the beach—something simple, comfortable, and full of that classic coastal charm—the Caretaker’s Bungalow is a guest favorite for good reason.

This is also a pet-friendly Manzanita rental, so your dog can join you for beach walks, town strolls, and relaxed days by your side.



** A FEW HELPFUL NOTES BEFORE YOU BOOK

We like to keep things clear and easy—especially since VRBO doesn’t always make policies obvious.

During booking, you’ll be shown our Rental Agreement outlining policies, house details, and expectations. Feel free to review and reach out with any questions before confirming your stay. You will be required to sign our Rental Agreement before your stay. By booking your stay, you will have agreed to the VRBO and Rental Agreement policies.

PETS
Dogs are welcome. Just include the number of pets when booking so we can get everything set up. A per-pet fee applies. If pets aren’t included at booking, we’ll follow up to add them.

CANCELLATION POLICY
VRBO may show this property as “No Refund,” but that’s a platform limitation. Most stays include a full refund up to 90 days before arrival, but it is seasonal. Our busy summer season has the strictest cancellation policy. These policies are noted in our Rental Agreement, which you will be shown before booking. Please reach out anytime if you’d like details before booking.

OCCUPANCY
The Caretakers Bungalow sleeps 4. Three pets maximum. Two cars maximum. No RVs, Campers, Trailers, etc. allowed. This is mandated by the County. Contact us with questions or exception requests.

SCHEDULING
Fridays and Saturdays are typically booked together unless arranged ahead of time.

A QUICK NOTE ABOUT THE COAST
Photos reflect a moment in time, but the Oregon Coast is always changing—sand levels, vegetation, and even how the beach looks can shift with the seasons and tides. That’s part of what makes this stretch of coastline so special.

ABOUT US
We began renting our family's original Oceanfront Cottage in 1996, and have grown since then. We have lots of expertise about the area, and are happy to help our guests enjoy their beach getaways even more. We offer insider knowledge and tips in Manzanita Beach Life.

    Nicely updated older beach house. Conveniently located across from easy Neah-Kah-Nie beach access, about a mile north of town. Also close to multiple coast trails foe hiking. Kitchen has everything you need to cook a meal for a crowd. Wood burning fireplace was wonderful. Stop by the store in town to get bundles of wood or bring your own.Perfect for couple with dog getaway.

    We had a great stay here for our kids’ 10th birthday. We lucked out with some decent November weather and had a nice time! Good proximity to the beach, and views from the house when the weather wasn’t as nice. Comfy furnishings and well appointed kitchen. Not a bad walk down the beach to town either, took maybe 10-15 minutes even stopping to look at every shell :-)

    Excellent, we loved walking to the beach in the morning and watching the water from the comforts of home. We enjoyed quality time with two of our adult daughters! Thank you!

    The Caretakers Bungalow was the perfect place for me to celebrate my birthday week with my best friends. We loved the location and the proximity to the beach and businesses. The large windows offered wonderful views of the beach and sunsets. I wished we could’ve sat outside on the Adirondack chairs to enjoy the view. Nevertheless we had an awesome week. Thank you.

    We spent nearly a large amount of money for two nights at this property. Initially it appeared to be pretty clean and beautiful, but we noticed the floors were dirty, we found fruit flies/gnats inside the house. The view of the ocean isn’t as clear as you’d think due to quite a bit of obstruction from some bushes, and the windows that gave beach view were extremely dirty. In addition, the laundry list of rules is extensive and we spent hours doing towels and dishes (and putting them away per the rules) on our last morning to avoid the threatened late fees if we weren’t out by 11. This is all on top of paying substantial cleaning fees. I’m VERY certain the small place doesn’t cost that much to clean, particularly since we did the towels and dishes, as well as sweeping the floor on our first day of stay.

    Great property and friendly hosts with quick communication. The street the house is on is very quiet and provides quick (less than one minute!) access to the beach. Equipped with everything needed and comfortable beds. The view of the ocean with all of the windows is hard to beat. Plan to stay again!

    This was the strangest weekend getaway I have ever had when it comes to owners spying on tenants and making wild assumptions. We reserved the four person house for our 49th and 50th birthdays. My partners parents flew in from New York and had hotel room in Garibaldi. The day of her birthday was spent at the beach in the sun, which was wonderful. Prior to walking to the beach we had five people at the property on the side deck preparing to go to the beach. In that time the owners or staff went by and noticed the number of people exceeded four and apparently assumed all those people were sleeping at the house. Rather than approaching us to get all the information, I get an email with wild accusations of wrong doing and stating that my cell phone number was a land line number and I was violating the rental agreement. I am not sure what the owners issues were other than being immature, unable to dial the correct phone number, and passive agressive towards people attempting to enjoy their weekend with a small party of five (three slept at the house). To top it off, at 10:20am the following morning, someone from the property parked outside the house to observe us packing up. Very strange interactions and we will find a different company/owners to rent from in the future. I can understand that some rentals could be abused by some renters, however, this was not the case and the feeling of being projected as being a guilty party in the minds of the owners is not pleasant, professional or necessary in my opinion. I would not recommend this property or any properties under this management or owner.
