About this property

Cozy coastal home with deck ocean views and firepit 4 blocks to beach

Summary:

The Heron's Nest Vacation Rental



The Space:

Wake up each morning to Pacific Ocean blue at this delightful Cape Meares home, an all-seasons escape on the Northern Oregon Coast with a deck and living space that overlook the water, a firepit and a gas grill for barbecues, and easy walking access to the beach just four blocks away!



This two-level home sits within sight of the ocean on Cape Meares, just a short, gradually sloping stroll from the beautiful beach. You'll have a canoe to take out on Cape Meares Lake one block north (transportation for the canoe is not provided), as well as beach chairs and sand toys to use on the ocean shore. This home is also only three miles north of the Cape Meares Lighthouse and State Scenic Viewpoint, eight miles northwest of downtown Tillamook, and 10 miles west of the famous Tillamook Creamery.

It was an enjoyable stay but not without major inconveniences. The road to Cape Meares was closed causing an 11.6 mile detour. The water was shut off from 10:00am til 4:00pm Tuesday. Wednesday there was a boil water advisory.
Boil water notice.

Quiet area and very nice

The house was great and fit all of our needs. The beach is only a short walk away and you will enjoy the quiet, peaceful scenery. This beach area is not packed like Cannon Beach with lots of tourists, so if you are looking for a quiet area this house is great.

Enjoyable Stay

Friends and I stayed at this home and had a very enjoyable weekend! Town is quiet and beach is beautiful! Wonderful area to walk around nature....but quite far to restaurants, but for secluded area this is sweet! Not updated, but windows everywhere which is my favorite!

Elk in the back yard and a fantastic beach!

It was a beautiful place to sit and relax. The elk were an added bonus. The Heron's Nest was comfortable and quiet. I am so glad that we stayed there. It was perfect for a family of five. It had everything we needed to have a great vacation.

Great place to stay, easy access to the entire Oregon Coast! Truly dog-friendly, too.

Bedrooms nice-sized and nicely appointed. Living/kitchen area was spacious and well-equipped. Very clean. No noise but the ocean.

The Heron's Nest Ocean

it was a really nice, cozy beach house for a perfect get away. The house was very well equip, organized and nothing that I could ask more. The beach was closed enough for you to see, smell, and hear the magnificent from the ocean from the beach house. I would highly recommend!

Personal Beach

First family trip to the Oregon Coast! Splendid! We loved, loved our stay in Cape Meares and felt like we had our own personal beach. The home was lovely. Went to Short Beach, the lighthouse, Munson Creek Falls, the Blue Heron, and Tilamook Creamery. Enjoyed it all!

Very Comfortable Well-Furnished Cozy House

Quite beautiful location -- perfect for a get-away from it all. Well furnished, including cookware, plates/bowls/utensils. We also appreciated the entertainment options incl. blu-ray player, an iPod and CD player, magazines, books, and some movies. Thank You!

The Heron's nest was perfect.

The house was clean. The walk to the beach was easy. We had never been to Cape Meares and it is my new favorite place to go. The tide pools were really cool and the driftwood fort was awesome. The beds were very comfortable and the kitchen was well stocked. Didn't mind a bit that there was no wifi or cable. Movies were easy to rent at the Safeway in Tillamook.

The property was great.

Had a great time. House was clean and very cozy. The only downfall is there were additional guests on the kitchen counters . . . sugar ants. Loved the view from the deck. The house in front blocks a little bit, but you can still see a great view. Would definitely stay again. Thanks for letting my family into your home.
