Great Family Trip to Rockaway

What a great house, especially for a group! 9 of us enjoyed the house and had plenty of space for needs. Plenty of seating, beds and supplies, plus a great deck. The views of the coast and Twin Rocks were incredible!

Gorgeous View, Dingy Rental

I wouldn’t say my family had a terrible stay because the house does have a lot of amenities, however, the uncleanliness of the place really had us wishing we were home instead. As others have said, the view is absolutely breathtaking, but that didn’t make up for a visibly dingy sofa, walls, and past their prime bath towels. Additionally, it is difficult to understand the layout when looking at the listing’s photos. Upstairs there are two rooms with one full/queen bed in each. It feels misleading to say this house sleeps so many people. The lower level has about 5 full/queen beds between two separate areas that are all in very close proximity to each other. Maybe this is an incentive for some people, but potentially 10 people can sleep within that space—it just doesn’t seem ideal to sleep with that many people in such a small area. Overall, a deep cleaning would make a world of difference here and possibly create repeat visitors, but if you’re just here for the views, this is your place.

Stunning

Our stay at Anna's was amazing. We walked in after a 13 hour drive and were immediately taken away by the view! There were a couple small issues with the cleanliness but she was responsive, accommodating and very kind. We absolutely loved the spaciousness, everybody had their own bed and space. With a group of 9 we were very thankful for the nice kitchen and large table. We drank coffee every morning on the deck and used the telescope one night to look at the moon. After traveling to nearby towns we were even more thankful we chose Rockaway to stay in. We were incredibly blessed by their home and the view! Thank you for sharing your space.

Best view ever!!

We loved staying here!! Great location and that deck view, you can’t beat it!! It is an older home but my teenagers thought it was so cool! Plenty of beds for everyone and we enjoyed the vinyl selection and even added to it. Kitchen had everything you needed and more. A larger garbage can would be nice but wasn’t a problem. The counters are tall which I loved. Plenty of bathroom towels and bed blankets . Appreciated the fans in every room. Great town, great beaches all around. We will be back for sure!! Especially for the price! Thanks Anna, for the help with the trash. Love, love, love!!!

This house was big enough for our 3 families. The kitchen is well appointed with all the things you need. Crock pot, blender, electric skillet, pots and pans, etc. they even have a selection of seasonings. We really appreciated all of that! We also loved having a vinyl collection to listen to.

With a group of buddies, we had a great trip to the coast, complete with fishing and crabbing. The house itself is perfectly equipped from kitchen to the grill. The view is exceptional and it’s super cozy. Would stay again!

Great view, tons of beds

Our group had a great time at the Hilltop House. There were beds for everyone, the deck was huge and wonderful, and the kitchen was well stocked. Our only real cons were - More living room style seating would be nice for larger groups, a couple of the mattresses were a bit too firm, and several of the dining chairs need some TLC. That said, the house was fantastic and stocked with everything we needed to enjoy our long weekend. Thank you for sharing your house!

Great place for a cousins get together

The hill house will WOW you with its view. We were a party of 7 female cousins, w/o our husbands, who some of us hadn’t seen each other for 15+ yrs. This house is well stocked-turntable record player, records popular (80’s) & a lot of classical. Puzzles & books too. Lots of room upstairs & downstairs. Furniture is very comfortable. We each had our own bed (7) & very happy for 3 bathrooms. We loved the beautiful deck & sat and watched the fog roll in or enjoyed the sun. It’s a 30 min walk to beach from house but most wanted to drive so not to walk back up hill to house. We spent 4 wonderful nights and really didn’t want to leave.

This is a wonderful place for adults who love to watch the ocean, don't need to walk on the beach and who don't mind traveling a bit to shop, get your toes wet in the ocean or just sit in the sand. The view is spectacular and there is plenty of room for a large gathering.

About the host

Hosted by Anna Ramseier

Why they chose this property

We chose to buy in this location because it was a nice, quiet town, closely located to Cannon Beach and Tillamook. And only 2 hours from Portland, OR. Not to mention, the ocean view was incredible!

What makes this property unique

As soon as you arrive at Hilltop House, as we lovingly call it, and step out of your car you are first taken aback by the incredible ocean view, then the quietness sets in, then when you step inside the house, you immediately begin to relax.
