Ocean Front House - Gorgeous Views - The Beach is Your Backyard!

Experience the pacific ocean like never before. Our house sits on the beach with nothing between you and the ocean! We hope to provide you with an amazing beach front experience.

Want a great family vacation place? Stay within steps of the Pacific Ocean in one of Oregon's premier beach towns. This sleepy little beach town is great for family get-togethers or romantic weekends. Come and enjoy the beauty! Our house is located directly in front of Haystack Rock in Pacific City, Kiwanda Shores development. Perfect Family house, remodeled recently.

Sit on the deck and watch the kids surf, or walk directly to the water for a swim. Sweeping 180 degree panoramic views of Porter Point to the south, Haystack rock right in front and Cape Kiwanda and the giant dune to the north. Numerous activities in Pacific City, or no activity at all - it's an easy place to just relax on the deck and watch the ocean. Just a short walk up the beach to the famous Pelican Brewery.

A few notes:
We performed a major remodel of the kitchen winter 23/24. The kitchen pictures reflect the remodel. We also added air conditioning with 3 minisplits.

No Smoking inside or near the house - we like clean smelling beach and ocean. This is not your grandma's beach house - but not party central either! Although we rent out our house, it is also our own personal beach house that we stay at often as well.

Strict no pets policy. We have family members and many guests allergic to dogs. So please no pets, even on a visiting for the day basis.

Campfires - County regulations currently allow campfires on the ocean side of the sand dune. You may not burn driftwood or vegetation.

****NO EVENTS OR PARTIES****

PLEASE NOTE: We cannot guarantee sunny weather or a clear view of the ocean. While our house IS located on the front row - with nothing but sand between you and the ocean - the winter winds can reach up to 100 mi/hr creating a sand berm in front of all the houses. Most of the time we are able to shovel the sand out of the way, making for a perfect view of the ocean from the house. But other times, we have storms moving in and out - especially in the winter months - pushing the sand, blocking the view. This can occur overnight, so its difficult to keep it clear 100% of the time.

Fees - We have many people ask about the fees. The service fee is a fee VRBO charges directly to you, we do not collect that fee. The stay tax is a county tax that VRBO also collects directly from you. Unfortunately these fees are unavoidable.

** Our cleaners adhere to CDC recommended cleaning protocols for everyone's safety. We actually pay our cleaners $225 to clean the house. Our cleaners are paid a living wage that allows them to support their families.

A beautiful place - for having fun with family and friends!
We have three exterior security cameras. There is a camera above each door to the deck. They point downwards for security when the property is vacant. These cameras are turned OFF during your stay. We also have a ring doorbell which covers the entryway and part of the driveway. This camera is always on.

Perfect stay in Pacific City

Had the best time at this property. The hosts were super responsive to any questions we had and quick to reply. The home was clean and cozy. Well stocked kitchen and bedding. We were able to see whales from inside the house and played on the beach all day. Can’t wait to come back next year and stay again!!!

Family at the Beach

Incredibly windy 3 days. The view from this property was the saving grace. We could not sit outside but we were able to watch the entire coast anyway. The westward facing windows are great. The property is well maintained and equipped; I’d definitely stay here again.

We had an amazing time staying right on the beach in the gated community. The house was clean and comfortable. My kids and granddaughter enjoyed the sand right off the deck. We left a kite for the next family.

Perfect spot on the beach

Can’t get much closer to the sand and sea than this. House was perfect for 2 families with kids. Just enough space if you needed separate times, but close enough for all to hang out together. House had all the basics, even a sand toy box with balls, buckets, and shovels, Adirondack chairs on the patio to enjoy the sunsets, and cozy blankets to help with the evening chills. Definitely enjoyed ourselves and great family memories were made.

Perfect spacious front rooms for group get-togethers.

We have an extended family reunion every year. Other families stay in near by houses. Our house has living space for both adults and children. In addition it has large kitchen and living room plus surrounding deck for visitors to come by and be close to the ocean without being crowded. The owners are very accomadating to save the date. We were pleased to see the the new remodel job.

Sweet family memories

We have stayed at this beach house three years in a row...it's been well enjoyed by our small but multi-generational family. The location cannot be beat. It comes with all the amenities as listed and the home is just so pleasing to the eye - especially looking through all those clean windows - to that "ahhh" view. Love it. Lovely hosts too.

The home was very clean and well appointed with most anything you would need during your stay. The host was easily accessible and typically responded quickly to any communication.The view is stunning, but they need to do a better job of cleaning the windows both inside and out. The French doors had face prints on the inside, and the exterior windows were quite dirty, which probably goes hand-in-hand with the location. But my partner washed them down and they were fine, so that would be a nice touch. Also, it would be great if there was a storage area where they could put all the extra things around the house. There are no closets that are fully usable to unpack and store your luggage, instead they are full of things like beach chairs, large Rubbermaid tubs, high chairs, driftwood, etc.The one thing they must fix, though, are the blinds, they were a nuisance to operate. Luckily, we found tape on the inside of the blinds that previous guests used to roll them up and tape them open. Otherwise the blinds would be blocking 50% or more of the windows.These are just a few little quirks. But overall, the house really truly is comfortable, clean, and in a great location with easy access to the beach which you can walk all the way down to restaurants, a coffee shop and shopping.

Pre-Christmas Get-away

We thoroughly enjoyed staying at this beautiful, wonderfully stocked rental home with one of the most incredible views! Everything about our stay was perfect. The owners were incredibly understanding and helpful when we got a bit stranded due to paralyzing icy weather on the coast. We greatly appreciate all they did to help us get back to Portland. We highly recommend this property and will definitely make plans to return to one of our favorite spots!

Didn't Want to Leave!

This was our 2nd stay at the Ocean Front House. Last year we loved it so much, we re-booked for this year before we even checked out. This year we were had such a hard time leaving, we reached out and were allowed to stay one more night. Todd and Katie have been more than accomodating and we can't wait to visit again!
