Accommodations: House, 4 Bedrooms, 2 Baths (Sleeps 8)
If you're looking for a place to relax and gather your wits about you, this is it. You can go beachcombing and hiking and crabbing and clamming or you can do nothing at all, just sit and watch the beach or watch movies with a terrific sound system.
You can eat dinner at Roseanna's Cafe in town or Schooners just down the road and Michkos for an incredible burger or you can cook gourmet meals in a kitchen that has everything you need, including spices. There are so many choices, but no matter what you decide to do, you will feel cozy and peaceful and welcome. There's nothing stuffy about the house, so prepare to feel at ease.

- You can do a 5 mile hike with ocean views to Cape Lookout. WARNING: this hike is not for young children or the inexperienced hiker. Also, the Tillamook Cheese Factory is close by and children love that - great ice cream and so much fun to see how cheese is made. There is an old blimp museum in Tillamook that's interesting and often things going on at the fairgrounds. The Lincoln City casino is about an hour away as are factory outlet stores, but you can avoid those things easily if you wish.

Why the Owner Chose Oceanside
I bought my home in Oceanside because it isn't a typical tourist town. There's only one restaurant (and a good one), and one coffee shop in our town, but a fabulous long beach. Within 2 miles, there are two other good places to eat and two small stores for supplies. Within 9 miles is a good sized town (Tillamook) and an amazing cheese factory.
The Unique Benefits at this House
Lovely peace and quiet, great beach walking, amazing views from the deck, a completely equipped kitchen, and very comfy beds. The tide pools at low tide are so interesting, and if you like crabbing and clamming, it's just two miles away.
Great little restaurant right on the beach. They don't take reservations, have to kind of line up. Clam chowder is so good, and so are the fish dishes
Owner's Map of Oceanside
I'm a nurse practitioner in Portland, Oregon. This beach house is my pride and joy. This is the first year I've rented out the house, so I'm hoping that the people who want to stay here are looking for a home that belongs to a family and feels like a home, not a rental property.
