What a gem!! I'd stay here again in a second. The view was amazing, staff was helpful and the room was adorable. Very cozy and comfortable. I highly recommend the Ocean Cove. Also, it is within walking distance to town which was lovely.

It was what we were looking for, something simple, clean, close to town and walking distance to the restaurants and shops with a ocean view out the window across the street. Pets welcome, even though we decided to not bring our dog, others staying at the spots next to us had their dogs and everyone was very nice and friendly. Will be looking to stay here again next time we go to Yachats. Told everyone at work about the Ocean Cove and Yachats and some are already planning their trip to visit.

THE LOWER COTTAGES ARE ON THE HIGHWAY. Cottages marked balxony are much better. I've stayed here a few times, but never in the lower area. VERY noisy, the porch lights are on all night and shine in and the traffic lights hit your pillow through the crack. BUT the room was comfy and clean with antique furniture, a nice bed and seating area. The view and walking distance to The Green Salmon for meals is why I come back

Filthy.This room has no privacy. Anyone can see right inside even when the blinds are shut. My husband and I wanted to spend a nice weekend at the beach. We started noticing how dirty it was not long after arriving. There were pubic hairs on the sheets, blood stained on them, then looking further the mattress had pee stains. The pillow cases had strange clips on them which we learned was for bed bugs. The vents all around the room had thick dust collecting on them. Behind the tv had large and thick cobwebs and so did under the bed. The bed had a bunch of sand under too. In fact, under the bed was not cleaned at all. Whoever cleans that place just cleans surfaces and doesn't bother with places they think no one will notice. There are signs posted in the room about keeping clean to prevent COVID. This place was not clean. I did not feel safe staying there. With what all they did not bother to clean, I felt my health could be in danger. Also there are reminders to YOU to remind YOU to clean up after your dog. Although we do not have a dog, we found it ironic they are worried you won't clean up after your dog when they really didn't bother with cleaning the room. So disgusted by this place, we left and slept in the car at a state park down the road. I reached out to the property and asked for a refund while we were supposed to be staying there. My refund request was denied. Do not bother staying here. It is filthy, not private, and a waste of money.

This property is in an absolutely beautiful location and while I was ultimately very satisfied with my stay, it was initially challenged by broken window blinds and no curtains on the windows in a very exposed location. Arriving at 8PM with no office staff to help, I was left to call and deal with folks that felt it was entirely acceptable for me to wait over an hour for someone to come fix the blind...NOT! Getting to the right person resulted in a change of room and all went well from there but this did take 45 minutes to get settled. Another issue: I did accidentally leave something in the first room and never heard from housekeeping staff and therefore never recovered the item...luckily replaceable, but not insignificant. The room with broken blinds was subsequently rented out and while the blinds did lower you could still see right into the room and still no curtain. This to my mind is a must when it comes to what is needed to ensure a comfortable and safe stay.

Walking distance to Smelt Sands beach and Yachats.
stayed in Agate, a room on the lower level of their two rows of rooms overlooking hwy 101 and the river outlet into the ocean. Decent little kitchen with very basic cookery items, a stove top and a microwave. High ceilings with skylights and a ceiling fan. Very comfortable bed. Bath with a shower. Only short fall was the heater in the bathroom wasn't working, though the vent fan was. Main room heated by 2 zonal cadet heaters and was comfortable enough to make showering possible however.

Exceptionally close to beach access and so many restaurants and all in walking distance from room. Also a great view right from the room to the ocean. Very clean and comfortable furnishings and clean bathroom. The only minor maintenance problem with room was being fixed this very same week, so the ownership is responsible and reliable here.

I paid for a kitchenette. When i arrived i was put in a room without this. I called the manager and he said he would call back, but he just blew me off. I had to buy forks and knives in order to use the food i brought The place is really quite lovely and clean. It has a beautiful view of the cove. The fecks in front of the room are nice to sit on. Its just a bit of the highway. But not noisy. Bed was clean and fresh with 2 types of pillows. Nice sized room with a desk dor working and a couch dor lounging. You can walk to everything in minutes. I REALLY LIKED THIS PLACE I JUST DIDNT LIKE THE BAIT AND SWITCH!

Fair enough room for the price
Two things that matter most to me when staying in a motel: Hot water for showering and a safe area. This place had both. The bed was okay:It had a flimsy feel to it when you first sit on it,but it actually slept quite nicely. The pillows were excellent. One nitpicky thing is the decorative metal sculpture above the beds are a bit low so if you sit on the bed against with back to the wall, your only option is for your head to rest on it. The room was a bit grubby. It was clean in the visible places, but there were maintenance issues that could use a bit of love.The blinds were layered with dust. The bathroom fan was so thick with dust, you could knit mittens with it. There is a lovely skylight in the room, but looking up at it beholds the sight of webs, dead bugs and spiders. The floors had some crunchies you'd walk on in the less visible spaces such as the side of the bed. Lots of roly poly bugs in the bathroom,but to be fair this seems to be an issue in other beach homes we've stayed in. Problem is, lots of bugs attracts spiders of which we killed a few crawling on us. They provided enough coffee pods for 3 people for the entire weekend. We stayed in the Tidewater and it was on the end near the guest laundry room and felt more private. We were right next to a FANTASTIC restaurant called “The Drift Inn”. The food was amazing and had enough variety to serve a diversity of palates. The room is reasonable price for high season, short notice booking on the coast of Oregon.
