Why the Owner Chose Smith River

Sea Turtle is in a banana belt giving you mild sunnier weather than north or south of us. Also, Sea Turtle is one of only a few cabins located right on the Pacific Ocean in the northern CA.and southern Ore. coastlines. We live in Redding CA. and are 4 1/2 hours away up I-5 north to Grants Pass and over or using 299w from Redding to Arcada and heading north up 101. Did I mention oceanfront, oceanfront, oceanfront? Brookings Harbour is a quaint seaside coastal town, full of Easter lily fields and friendly people.

The Unique Benefits at this Cabin

The deck is where it is at. Why you ask? The ocean is on the other side at your feet. Whales, sea lions, seals, pelicans are frequently seen. Count the star fish at low tide, read your book, sip your favorite drink, nap, watch beach activities, sunsets, enjoy starry nights, sitting in the hot-tub and bar-b-queing come to mind. If the weather is cool, you can sit inside and observe everything thru the wall of windows.

Cabin 11, located out front on the oceanside. You can exit 101 N, onto Whiterock Loop from the south or north side of the resort. Look for the Nautical Inn resturant sign just a couple hundred feet

B
Whalewatch

KEEP AN EYE FOR THEM. LOOK FOR SPOUTS OF WATER A FEW HUNDRED YARDS STRAIGHT OFF THE DECK. SPRING THEY HEAD NORTH AND FALL THEY HEAD SOUTH

C

Get your laundry done fast while you shop.

Chris and Chris were married 33 years ago and have three grown children. We live in Redding CA. at Lake Shasta. We are water people and are happiest near the water. Needless to say we are very happy spending time at Sea Turtle at the edge of the mighty Pacific Ocean. We love to share this experience by renting direct to all our hundreds of new and old friends at an affordable cost.

    • Coffee in the hot tub in the morning...a glass of wine in the hot tub at sunset...the sound of the ocean lapping on the beach below all day...life at Sea Turtle is pretty darn wonderful! The decor and accommodations were great (very comfy bed; well-equipped kitchen) -- we had everything we needed. The location is a perfect "base camp" for anyone who wants to explore the Northern California and Southern Oregon coast line. We did mini road trips from Sea Turtle and it worked out great. The Neptune Inn next door and the Town of Brookings, Oregon just a mile up the road offer plenty of dining options. For those looking for a place of serenity to curl up with a good book and forget the rest of the world, Sea Turtle is perfect. For those who have kids, the loft upstairs is just right. Enjoy your vacation!

      Bev and Lee, thank you for your kind comments. We are glad you had a wonderful time at Sea Turtle, all the way from gorgeous Hawaii. Chris and Chris

    • Hi! I would be more than happy to share some information about one of our favorite family getaway locations! We have had two wonderful stays at the Sea Turtle and we are anxious to go back again this August for a 4 day trip! The unit is right above the ocean--a spectacular view (especially from the outdoor hot tub!). The pacific crashes against the rocks below--it really is a spectacle (I have never stayed in a house so close to the water--and felt so safe). It is right next to a secluded and very clean sandy beach that has good tidepools (tons of starfish over by the rocks) and pelicans galore. The rock hunting is great on the beach--my kids love the beach-combing there. The cabin is a great fit for a family of four (we have two boys--ages 5 and 10). There is a nice bedroom downstairs with a very comfortable king-sized bed and a cozy loft upstairs with a twin and a double that is great for kids--complete with videos! The unit has a nice kitchen and a very pleasant and relaxing decor. It also has a nice little sunroom/entryway that opens to the deck and the gorgeous views! And the location! 45 minutes from the jet boat excursions up the Rogue River in Gold Beach--and 30 minutes from the redwoods. Brookings is only a few miles away and has some good places to eat. But--unlike windy Gold Beach--White Rock is much warmer and has a lot less tourists. More often than not we have had Pelican beach all to ourselves. I hope this helps--I would advise you to book right away--you won't regret it!

    • Well, I am back looking at the web site to see available dates, because the beauty of the place has stayed with me. We loved it, and will be back some time soon. Very comfortable and the ocean view was the best of many that I have stayed in before. Highly recommend Sea Turtle.

    • We had a great time at the Sea Turtle. It is a perfect location for hiking, cycling, and strolling on the beach. We enjoyed the Redwoods in both California and Oregon. Brookings and Crescent City are great beach towns. It's so startling to see azaleas in bloom under towering palms!

    • I loved this cabin! You can actually hear the ocean if you have the windows open. The deck is perfect for sipping your favorite beverage while watching the whales swim by, or the beautiful sun set over the always amazing Pacific Ocean. I can't wait for my next visit!

      What can we say that hasn't already been said? What an incredible haven. We can't remember a time more relaxing. The sounds of the sea seem to lull us in to a quiet peacefulness. The view is amazing. The decor is SO inviting. We WILL return.

    • Sea Turtle was the perfect weekend getaway. The cabin was decorated beautifully, the ocean view is spectacular and relaxing in the hot tub was just the icing on the cake. It was a great way to end a very hectic work week. We will definitely go back as soon as possible. Brent and Sheree Whaley
