Spacious oceanfront rental home just steps from the beach and walking distance to restaurants and shops. Enjoy over seven miles of Oregon Coast beach right on your doorstep. With no dunes obstructing your view, this oceanfront beach house is the perfect retreat to catch your breath and be away from it all. Relax to the sounds of crashing waves, breathe the fresh ocean air, and feel the ocean breeze.

One dog, weighing up to 45 pounds, is allowed to join you.

With 2,800 square feet of space on two levels, this beach home comfortably accommodates up to nine people. The many windows give you an ocean view from just about every room - anyone who loves the coast will feel right at home here!

The lower level has the kitchen, dining room, and living areas. At this home, a windy winter storm can be just as beautiful and fun to watch as a colorful summer sunset - this is an amazing house to visit during any season.

The bright and open full kitchen has everything needed to prepare delicious meals, including a refrigerator, freezer, Jenn-Air range, dishwasher, microwave, toaster, and coffee maker. There is even a bell in the kitchen to call everyone together for a nice sit-down breakfast before a refreshing morning walk on the beach!

The lower level also has a main bedroom, the “Captain’s Quarters” with a comfortable gel foam mattress. This is an easy access bedroom for anyone who may have trouble climbing stairs. The Captain’s Quarters also has a smart TV with cable. The lower level has a full bathroom off the living area and a laundry room.

The upper level features an entertainment room and an upper deck for relaxing and viewing beach traffic. Two bedrooms feature beds with comfortable gel foam mattresses. The upstairs main bedroom has floor-to-ceiling windows that provide breathtaking oceanfront views. This room also has sliding glass doors that provide access to the upstairs deck.

The entertainment room has a 65-inch smart TV with cable - bring your Netflix account! High-speed cable internet and WiFi provide fast connectivity for video streaming, online gaming, surfing the web, and checking your email while on vacation. This room also has a door to the upstairs deck.

Head outside to the large deck to enjoy the fresh ocean air and listen to the relaxing sounds of crashing waves. Plenty of outside seating and the gas grill make the deck a wonderful sunny place to spend the day enjoying the oceanfront! Be sure to bring along your kites, beach gear, and binoculars.

The nearby area is rich for discovery. Beautiful Lake Lytle and Nehalem Bay State Park are a short drive to the north. The famous Tillamook Cheese Factory visitor center, Cape Meares Lighthouse, and Cape Lookout State Park are a short drive to the south. This stretch of the Oregon Coast area has amazing hiking trails, whale watching (peak migration season is from mid-December to mid-January), crabbing, fishing, boating, and miles upon miles of stunning beaches perfect for jogging, flying kites, surf fishing, beachcombing, and searching for tide pools. There is even a historical steam engine locomotive offering scenic rides from Rockaway Beach around Tillamook Bay.

For lovers of the beach, this beautiful and spacious oceanfront Oregon Coast vacation rental is a dream come true! Please take a virtual tour and see for yourself the comfortable open design and beautiful ocean views.

3 Generations at Beach

Great site. Excellent accommodations for multi-generations. Only downsides were 1) Dishwasher not getting dishes clean enough 2) Outside gas range very difficult to light 3) Upstairs tub to shower process not very easy to figure out. But we all had a terrific time.

Beautiful location set up for a group.

Had 3 generations of adults in the house. Enough room to spread out, cook together, eat together and still have separate bedrooms. Beach access is unbeatable. Easy walking. Plenty of kitchen equipment. We’re hoping to return.

Family Vacation

Our trip to Rockaway Beach was NOT disappointing in any way. We got to the house and instantly fell in love with it. It was spacious, clean, comfortable, and very accommodating. Then there was the view, absolutely stunning and breath taking. I would highly recommend staying here. The house is beautiful, there is plenty of space for family and friends, easy access to the beach, and the best thing is being able to enjoy the ocean. Can't wait to come back.

September beach trip

Location was great. Cleaning could have been better. Dirty dishes in dishwasher and upstairs bath tub was dirty. Lots of space to spread out. The outdoor furniture was wonderful. Having a few more staples would been nice (like foil or plastic wrap). I left some. Overall, a great stay.

Views and location are fantastic. Recliner chair is losing its fake leather onto everything. Bathroom wallpaper is peeling off... Well worn and well used house with spacious bedrooms. Would I rent again? yes! Location. Location. Location.

Amazing home right on the beach!

This home exceeded our expectations in many ways. The location was perfect as it was only steps from the sand. The double decks, upper and lower, provided great views of the ocean, along with the large front windows. The house was comfortable, clean and updated. We loved the open kitchen and the space for our family of 5. The kitchen was well stocked for all of our cooking needs and the rooms were super spacious! We plan to come back next year for sure. This trip is a spring break tradition for our family and each year we’ve tried new houses. We won’t need to worry or look again, as we would come back to this house in a second. The available Netflix and DVD player was also a bonus for the family movie nights and rainy days. Loved everything about it!!

2nd Stay at Twin Rocks

We really enjoy the location of this house. Can’t beat the view and the beach access. We love that the deck has been re-done since our last visit. It was beautiful. A couple of pieces of feedback. The remote doesn’t work upstairs, which means our children were unable to use that tv for anything. The beds are uncomfortably hard/bad, and the pillows are worthless. Also, we were unable to check in until an hour after our check-in time, but we have a very strict checkout time of 10am. Seems to be a bit of a double standard. Overall good, but definitely needs some updates…

Lovely Beachfront Property

The view, the layout, the furnishings, the location, etc. were all wonderful for this vacation home. We enjoyed our stay immensely. Easy access to the beach for long walks. All of the cooking utensils we needed to prepare meals. Sleeping arrangements worked perfectly for our group. Lots of space, including two living rooms so groups could separte if desired. It was secluded enough to enjoy without disturbances from neighbors but close enough to everything you need. Could walk into town if you wanted. I would love to give this location a 5 start rating but we did have two issues: 1 - the cleaners could pay more attention to cleanliness, we felt like we needed to wash pots and pans before we could use them. 2 - the fireplace was not operational, given that it was a stormy weekend, using the fireplace would have made the ambiance even better than it already was. We will definately save this location as one we would return to.

Right on the beach!

It isn't easy to find a location like this on the OR or WA coast. It really is just steps from the sand, and offers a great view of the beach both for viewing pleasure and for keeping an eye out if your kids are old enough to be on the beach alone. The house had almost everything we needed and was comfortable and clean. It was more than spacious enough with eight people. We appreciated that the television was on a different floor than the dining room and main living area. We were also surprised to have more than enough beach and kitchen towels, which is unusual in our experience. We also appreciated the tub of water outside the door for rinsing feet and shoes. The only problems were very minor: one of the lamp shades was broken and couldn't be placed on the lamp; a few window blinds were broken; there was no dishwasher detergent (or laundry detergent, but we expected that); there was only enough toilet paper for half our stay. Overall, the house was wonderful and we would definitely book it again if visiting Rockaway Beach.

Beautiful view of the ocean

Loved the location of this house. Absolutely stunning to watch the sunset from the big windows in the back! Unfortunately the hot tub had not been cleaned and there was green gunk growing in it. The fireplace wasn't on and after an hour of trouble shooting trying to light the pilot light we gave up. Sad because it would have been lovely to have a fire during the rainy days. Also, we tried to do a beef ternderloin for dinner and the oven never did heat properly. :( The crack on the stove top also made it difficult to cook for the large group we had at the house. This house definitely needs some work to make it a fantastic beach get away!

It could use a little love

The house it outdated and in need of some major attention. There aren’t any screens in the master bedroom so we couldn’t keep any of the windows open at night for air movement and we sweat through our sheets every night. The kitchen was dirty and none of the dishes were clean. It kind of stinks to have to start a vacation cleaning. The house smells moldy and the carpets were dirty and worn out. Half the blinds in the kids bedrooms were busted and couldn’t be closed. The washer and dryer made all of our clothes smell like mildew. They didn’t have enough dishes/glassware and their basics were pretty basic. Make sure to bring your own salt and pepper. That being said, it wasn’t all bad. The views are sensational and the beach is easy to get to. Getting into the house was a breeze. I feel like if the owners just put a little money back into it (and god knows with what we paid for five days, they can afford it)…this place would be five stars.

Truly, the only plus is the location. However, that is the only thing. The photos, represent the house to being clean on the inside and out. I checked Zillow and the photos were taken from when the house was sold. Truly, I don't think the new owners have put a single dime into maintenance. The white trim is covered in green slime, the deck is rotting, chairs are rusty, and not in the photos that are bating people to rent it. Upon arrival, we noticed a funky smell. The cleaners left a big black garbage bag full of garbage, we removed it and then noticed a dog smell. For a non-dog house, we didn't expect a "wet dog" smell. (This is when I made my first call to VACASA and was put on hold for 10 minutes and I gave up.) We could get past that, and opened the doors to air the house out. Soon after arriving, we served our kids dinner (3yr and 5yr old) a piece of food was dropped on the carpet, we picket it up and it was covered in sand and white and black dog hair. I decided to vacuum the bottom floor (about 150 sq feet of carpet) and it filled the vacuum container 1/3 full of sand, people hair, and dog hair. FROM 150SQ' OF CARPET! Being late, I decided to make the call the next morning. I spoke to a very nice customer service agent who took notes, and then said she would transfer me to the "local management team in Rockaway, OR. I was thinking to myself "we are getting somewhere," but the person I'm transferred to was the housekeeping service. I talked to them and they came over and re vacuumed the house, then gave me the excuse that the house vacuum was not in good condition. My response to her was "it worked well enough to fill the clear canister 1/3 full with little effort." So i think the vacuum worked as it should, the cleaners weren't doing their jobs. I expected them to follow up, with a call, email, etc to make sure the problem was fixed. No call/email so far. If you want a crash pad, and don't care about condition, inside or out, this is the place for you. If you have standards, I would look at another place, especially when considering the price. -The pillows were hard, beds were hard -sheets seemed to be clean, and beds were made -dishware, is to be expected for a rental -Numerous lights were burnt out and were all florescent lighting -in some places, the screen doors were 1/2 there or ripped off -Carpet was in terrible condition -bedding was worn. -DVD player, didn't work and not plugged in This place could be excellent with some work.
