Location: Oceanside, Northern Coast, Oregon, USA (65 Miles from Portland, or, 11 Miles W of Tillamook, or) View Map
Accommodations: Villa - Attach to Owner's Unit, 7 Bedrooms + Other (See Description), 8.5 Baths (Sleeps 25)
PLAN NOW FOR SPRING VACATION - fun rooms for noisy kids with quiet getaway corners for Moms & Dads. Book more than 3 nights in March & we'll buy a delicious lasagna for arrival night from local Olmedo's Italian Restaurant.
PANORAMIC OCEANFRONT VIEW includes Oceanside's Three Arch Rocks & majestic Cape Lookout. With 7 sleeping rooms + other semi-private sleeping areas, 8.5 bathrooms, 3 large gathering areas, game room, grand piano, large deck, and yard, this romantic and beautiful setting may provide the perfect venue for your special event. Tremendous value for large groups -each sleeping room includes a private bathroom, especially appreciated in corporate retreats when guests are unrelated. Plenty of parking. Comfortably sleeps 15 adults, but sleeps up to 25 in casual setting. Imagine, that's only $15 per night per person!
Great for special events. Gather your friends and/or loved ones for a relaxing and intimate stay in the tiny romantic village of Oceanside, just 90 minutes from downtown Portland. Fabulous restaurants nearby, miles of sandy secluded beaches, serene and un-commercialized surroundings, yet just a few minutes drive to one of the buzzing hotspots with lots of people and touristy activities. Pristine Netarts Bay, just a mile away, provides clamming & crabbing - boat rental, too. Natural caves for spelunking & Cape Meares Lighthouse are nearby attractions.
A short uncongested drive from the Metro area and you can enjoy a quiet escape. But if you wake up in a high energy mood, it's just 45 minutes N to Cannon Beach's shops or 45 minutes S to Lincoln City's casino. And Tillamook, 11 miles E, has movie & community theater, bowling, Y pool, golf, archery & more.

Why the Owner Chose Oceanside
Oceanside is a picturesque village which is convenient to Portland. The particular site where The Sea Haven is located provides one of the most panoramic views in this area, sweeping from the lights of the village on Maxwell Mountain all the way to Cape Lookout and the mouth of Netarts Bay. High elevation provides a "birds-eye view."
The Unique Benefits at this Villa - Attach to Owner's Unit
Oceanside has quiet and secluded sandy beaches, yet it's an easy drive to the touristy hotspots North and South of us on the coast. We have the best of all worlds here. Hang gliders and paragliders frequently launch from Maxwell Mountain, painting the skies overhead with their colorful fancy-free images. Between watching gliders, surfers, whales, sea lions, hummingbirds' fencing, brilliantly sparkling surf and shimmering moondancing on the waves, I could be entertained indefinitely without having to leave my window.
Owner's Map of Oceanside
Selling real estate, as I have for over 30 years, I am always coming across houses I fall in love with, and this time had the good fortune to buy. The Sea Haven for me is exactly what the name says, a haven & respite from the rigors of a demanding career.

Homeowner Response:
This group was wonderful and are welcome back anytime - they treated the home with respect and left it tidy. Regarding the stairs, please know that there is a complete apartment on the ground floor, but whoever stays in it would want to go up one flight of stairs to be with the rest of the group in the main gathering areas (main kitchen & living rooms)
