This is a very comfortable, family-friendly, newer home near the beach in beautiful Yachats. Our home is located just walking distance from downtown shops, restaurants, and the Adobe Restaurant/Resort. At our home, you are also a short 2 minute walk to the head of the 804 Trail, which winds along the coastal bluff. From the trail, you will have easy access to the beautiful beaches, where you can enjoy the unique lava rock formations, seals playing in the surf, starfish, shellfish, and fascinating tide pools.
There is room for one or two families, with plenty of games for those occasional rainy days. Half of our two car garage is also converted to a game area, with ping pong, darts, and a foosball table that will convert to a non-electric hockey table. Highspeed internet/WiFi access is available at no charge.
Outside, you will find a beautifully gardened yard with a hammock for relaxing, a charcoal barbecue, fire pit, and lawn furniture. Enjoy the beautiful sights and sounds of Yachats, our coastal gem!

My family only had a few days to spend in Yachats and I used VRBO for the first time to find a house. We loved the house. It was very clean and well maintained. Everything was as stated in the ad. The backyard is a beautiful and relaxing retreat surrounded by flowers and trees and it even has a hammock to nap in. The kitchen was well stocked. It had everything I needed including salt and pepper and cooking oils. The house is maybe a 3 minute walk to the beach and the 804 trail...which I ran everyday. It is also a very short walk to the small town of Yachats where we would walk for ice cream. This was an outstanding house...so glad I found it. I hope to return to it many more times.Recommended for: Families with teenagers, girls getaway, sightseeing, families with young children.

Clean and good price. Owner very helpful. A good buy and close 5 minute walk to the beach. Kids enjoyed the ping pong table in garage. The BBQ met our needs and the fire pit was enjoyed by kids roasting marshmallows. The layout was a little challenging as we had to walk through the room one of the teenagers was staying in to get from the master bedroom to the living room and kitchen. Best for one or two couples with kids younger than teens. Ona was a good restaurant in town. Chowderbowl was a good place for lunch in Newport not too far away. The Newport aquarium was a lot of fun. Newport has a natural foods grocery as well. We hit a couple of low tides which really makes the trip for the tide pools. You can check tides before choosing dates to come to the ocean. Come to the Oregon coast.Recommended for: Age 55+, families with teenagers, sightseeing, families with young children, adventure seekers.

Our time at this home was more than wonderful. It was very well maintained and the amenities were exactly as described. We enjoyed everything from the game room and large dining area for our entire family to enjoy, to the short walk to the beautiful beach. The weather was absolutely lovely as well! It was a wonderful time for our family and we would highly recommend this wonderful home and we will definitely return!

A great place to stay! A very clean, comfortable home – great for large families with a big dining table and several beds/baths. Good location – a short walk to town or the ocean, and close to the Adobe which has a nice restaurant. We were impressed with all that was provided - the owners thought of everything. Owners were friendly and great to work with! (I recommend putting the street address in the VRBO ad; it was the only thing missing when we arrived in Yachats:-) Thank you!Recommended for: Families with young children.

We spent a week at the Starfish house. The house is very comfortable, loved the colors and beach theme. Comfortable beds, great kitchen, dishwasher and washer/dryer made it so convenient for our family. Very close to the beach, plenty of parking. We were close to Newport, yet this area is so much less croweded. Enjoyed having beaches all to ourselves in August! I would recommend staying here, the price is amazing and it was a great location. Walport is only a short drive, we were walking distance to Yachats. Quiet neighborhood and a wonderful deck off the back, very relaxing. There is a large table in the diningroom and lots of games, we hardly turned on the TV and instead had lots of family game nights after a short walk to watch the sunset. If you want to be out of the hussle and bussle of Newport, yet a short distance away, I would highly recommend the Starfish House. We visited the Oregon Coast Aquarium, the dunes in Florence, the kids went hiking on several area trails. We took tons of pictures in the area. The owners were great to work with, very helpful. It was nice to be able to take our dog and we will be back in the future.Recommended for: Tourists without a car, age 55+, families with teenagers, girls getaway, sightseeing, families with young children, pet owners.

Stayed at this house for a mom's-weekend-out with several friends. It was wonderful -- clean, comfortable, well-maintained, and close to the beach. The large kitchen table had ample space for all 7 of us and beds were comfortable. We were all impressed and will definitely return with our families. Thank you!Recommended for: Families with teenagers, girls getaway, sightseeing, families with young children.

We just completed a mid-season deep clean. The master bedroom now has a new king bed. We installed all new duct-work and cleaned all the carpets. Come visit and enjoy our renovated space inside and out! We are looking forward to whale watching this fall.Did you find this review helpful? Yes | No Helpful votes: 0/0

Owner info
Why the Owner Chose Yachats:
Many fellow Oregonians told us their favorite spot on the Oregon Coast is Yachats. When searching for a coastal home of our own, we looked all along the Oregon Coast. We feel very fortunate that we found a home in Yachats and we are pleased to have the opportunity to share it with others. We take pride in keeping our home very well maintained, so we recently took over managing our home, the Starfish House ourselves.
The Unique Benefits at this House:
We very much enjoy peeks of the ocean from our home, and listening to waves crashing on the rocks from the master bedroom. When we come to visit our coastal home, we always look forward to parking our car in the driveway and spending the rest of our visit walking...to the beach, along the 804 Trail, to downtown, on the boardwalk behind the library, to the park, and the Farmers Market.
