Tillamook, Oregon
Spacious mid-century with ocean views, wood-burning fireplace and large private deck perched above Short Beach at the edge of protected forest land. The Surfside is on a quiet street, an easy walk to Short Beach and just 5 minutes to Oceanside Village & beach, and Cape Meares State Park.
The Space: This roomy and light filled home has been selectively renovated with many of the original mid-century features preserved. Enjoy ocean views from the large deck, and peek views from the livingroom, dining room and 2 of the bedrooms, and forest views from the other rooms.
The Neighborhood:
The neighborhood has the uniquely Oregon beauty of the ocean and the forest, with birds, deer, rabbits and elk wandering through. Short Beach, known as "Agate Beach" to the locals, is one of the best kept secrets. It is accessed by a short trail of wooden steps and board walks, known as "100 steps trail". At low tide, you can walk north along the beach to experience 2 waterfalls and sandy beaches (rocky beach only at high tide) along with haystack-like rock formations.
Oceanside Village is less than 1 mile away, featuring a large sandy beach, 2 good restaurants & a coffee shop, plus post office and fire station - that's about the extents of sleepy Oceanside and why it makes a great place to recharge! Nearby Cape Meares, Cape Lookout and Cape Kiwanda state parks offer hiking and nature exploration, or try your hand at crabbing or clam digging in nearby Netarts or Tillamook Bay. For the adventurous set, there is decent surfing, or even a parasailing launch site. Or just curl and and read (or write) a book while taking in the view.
Rules and things to note:
+ No pets, no smoking
+ Limit of 2 cars per group
+ Please bring your own fire wood & kindling if you'd like to use the wood burning fireplace.
+ Temperatures at the coast rarely rise above the 70's, but on the rare warm days you'll need to manage the operable windows and doors, fans and window shades to stay comfortable, and let the cool night air in while you sleep. 60's style :)
Nice place, plenty to do in area.
Although the setting was beautiful, we were a little disappointed in the product. The house felt a little tired and lacked the cleanliness that we were expecting. We also found a house not well equipped the kitchen lacked a working can opener, sponges for the sink and a dish rack. The lighting for reading was also nonexistent or the lightbulbs were very dim. The hot tub was a highlight as was the deck and we were able to enjoy some nice weather. We were not given access to the lockbox on time and had to call to get that, which was a little anxiety producing. Would not rent here again.
The location is better than advertised, views forever and very close to an awesome secluded beach. Our 4 year old loved the bunk beds and we enjoyed the patio! Would 100% return again!
We didn't get in till real late. Almost glad because the next morning when I awoke. Wow. Like seeing things for the first time all over. This place is nothing short of amazing. The beach is right down the street walking distance. Caves on the beaches. Low tide early in the morning you get to see all the star fish. 10 out of 10!
We had fun staying near Short Beach. The property has some nice updates.
Nice place with everything you could need! Hot tub and fireplace made for optimal relaxation.
Had an awsome time with family.
