About the host
Hosted by Sandra & John
We are originally from Louisiana and moved to Oregon in 2011. We live in Portland and love finding homes that need love and renovating them. We bought a mid-century split-level home in Portland with a one-bedroom apartment downstairs so we listed it on VRBO a couple of years ago and love having a short-term rental and meeting new people. John is a Naval Spec Warfare Veteran and is also an artist dealing in woodworking, furniture building and acrylic art. I am a voice-over artist and you can hear me on OPB (Oregon Public Broadcasting) which is the Oregon PBS television station. Our Portland VRBO listing is #740612
Why they chose this property
We rented a house in Rockaway Beach New Years Eve 2017 and fell in love with the town & beach, so we started searching and found the house that we lovingly call the Rocka-Waves retreat. We purchased it in June 2018 and loved that it was one of the original homes in Rockaway Beach built in 1918. At that time, Rockaway Beach was the premier tourist area for Portlanders and was accessed by a train that traveled from Portland to Rockaway Beach. We love the area, the town, the neighbors, and all it has to offer!
What makes this property unique
A great floor plan with one bedroom on the main floor and two bedrooms upstairs plus bathrooms on each floor! An electric fireplace in the living room for extra ambiance (& warmth in the winter) also an electric fireplace in the downstairs master. Plus it's only half a block from the beach and in the heart of town so you can walk to everything.
