A Wonderful Waterfront Family Home Mariner's Rest is the perfect place to create family memories at the Oregon Coast. Fantastic water views overlooking the entry to Tillamook Bay and out to the ocean. Located 4 miles south of Rockaway Beach, Oregon. Enjoy the nautical vibes of this extensively remodeled beach cottage, now our large family home. Walk to the Three Graces and Barview Tidal pools. Try your hand crabbing at Kelley's or the Jetty Fishery nearby. Explore Garibaldi, Manzanita, Tillamook, Cannon Beach and beyond! This is our family beach house that we use often and are still actively working on to improve. We hope you enjoy it as much as we do! The house is well stocked and we invite you to cook up a storm if desired or enjoy nearby restaurants. The Oregon Coast Scenic Railroad goes right by the house and kids of all ages enjoy waving as it passes! It only travels during the day and seasonally. We have 5 bedrooms on three floors so everyone can spread out. There are quite a few stairs so keep that in mind if it could be an issue. There is a bathroom on each floor (The downstairs toilet has a pump motor which will one day be remodeled but for now it is a bit loud). The sunroom is an amazing space to sit and watch the water, play a game, or read. We think it is the best room in the house. Lots of parking available, including boats/RV. You cannot sleep in the RV parked per the county rules but room to park is available. We are on Hwy 101 so there is road noise. Some people don't notice it, others have had issues sleeping. Bring some ear plugs if you think you may need them. FYI- it is a 3 level house with many stairs. 10 stairs lead up to main entry and one set of interior stairs is curvy. It is waterfront and there is a semi consistent foghorn on the end of the jetty at the ocean that you can hear. The Coast Guard often practices right in front of the house. Keep your eyes peeled and you may even see a pod of Orcas! We did add some exterior only cameras- FYI. One the entrance and one looking towards the side parking/boat. ## Property amenities ### Beach - Beach nearby - Beach loungers - Beach towels ### Internet - Available in the house: Free WiFi ### Parking and transport - Parking on site ### Kitchen - Blender - Coffee grinder - Coffee/tea maker - Cookware, dishware, and utensils - Dishwasher - Electric kettle - Hob - Ice maker - Kitchen island - Lobster/crab pot - Microwave - Oven - Refrigerator - Spices - Toaster ### Dining - Dining table ### Bedrooms - 5 bedrooms - Bedsheets provided ### Bathroom - 3 bathrooms - Bathtub - Bathtub or shower - Hair dryer - Shampoo - Shower - Soap - Toilet paper - Towels provided ### Living spaces - Dining table - Fireplace - Living room - Separate dining area ### Entertainment - Books - DVD player - Games - Smart TV - Video library ### Outdoor areas - Barbecue grill - Outdoor furniture - Patio ### Laundry - Laundry facilities - Washing machine ### Work spaces - Desk - Printer ### Comfort - Air conditioning - Heating ### Pets - Pet friendly - Welcoming dogs only - Up to 23 kg per pet ### Suitability/Accessibility - If you have requests for specific accessibility needs, please contact the property using the information on the reservation confirmation received after booking. - Upper floors accessible by stairs only - Smoke-free property ### Services and conveniences - Limited housekeeping ### Location highlights - Near a hospital - Near the bay - Near the marina - Near the sea - On the waterfront ### Things to do - Bicycle parking - Birdwatching nearby - Fishing nearby - Hiking/biking trails nearby - Hunting nearby - Kayaking nearby - Motor boating nearby - Mountain biking nearby - Rock climbing nearby - Surfing/bodyboarding nearby - Swimming nearby - Whale watching nearby - Wildlife walks nearby ### Safety features - Carbon monoxide detector (host has indicated there is a carbon monoxide detector on the property) - Smoke detector (host has indicated there is a smoke detector on the property) - Fire extinguisher - Deadbolt lock ### General - At least 80% lighting from LEDs - Bicycle parking - Cleaning products are eco-friendly - Local artist showcase - Unit size: 2,300 square feet ## Similar properties ![House (4 Bedrooms) | Interior](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/95000000/94400000/94399200/94399161/dd4a099a.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Pet-friendly Rockaway Beach Home w/ Fire Pit!

Plenty of space to back in a 22’ foot. Lots of space left for two more rigs Lots of space for cleaning and cooking fish and crab outdoors. We spent probably more than half our time outside in the little outdoor cooking area visiting and cooking crab. Inside is great. So much room for multiple couples or guests. ##### Kalah L.

I wish I would’ve known how many stairs are involved in this 3 level home as my elderly in laws were traveling with me and had some difficulties navigating. The upstairs bathroom shower needed a good scrubbing, other than that, the house was clean and comfortable. The main living area was spacious and provided a great space for us to be together and visit. The train coming by was fun for all, and the view was amazing. ##### Colleen C.
