About this property

SALTY DOG OCEANFRONT HOME GOLD BEACH OREGON

SALTY DOG is a 2 bedroom 2 bath oceanfront home located just north of Gold Beach in Rogue Shores a small oceanfront community of about 30 homes 1 MILE WEST of the Highway 101 and away from traffic. Gold Beach is located about 30 miles north of the Oregon/California border on the world famous ROGUE RIVER. This open plan 2 bedroom home has all wood floors with a full west side glass wall and panoramic views of the coastline and ocean. The main floor is the second floor with the living room with wood burning fireplace, dining room, full bath and kitchen and full laundry. The bedroom has a queen bed and a twin. There is a futon in the living room.
The third floor is the master bedroom with a king bed and seating area and a bath. The house has WIFI, full cable TV, a large west side deck and a HOT TUB under the trees. There is a 2 car garage. We have our own path to the beach about 100 feet west of the home. Our beach is about 3 miles long and sandy with large off shore rocks and the Marine Mammal Reserve from the mouth of the ROGUE RIVER to the south and OTTER POINT to the north. The lights of Port Orford are visible at night to the north west and you can see the Cape Blanco lighthouse flash every 20 seconds. There are many Harbor seals, Sea Lions, sea otters and sea birds off shore and grey whales can be seen years round. Look for agates (semi precious stones) shells, driftwood and other interesting items or you can just enjoy a nearly empty beach and watch the waves and sunsets.

The view from the front windows was wonderful! Beach access directly from the home was challenging, however , other options a few steps away were easy. The beach awesome and great for long walks. The weather was beyond good but we imagined the fireplace with easy wood access would be great in cool, stormy weather.

We had a very relaxing time and we enjoyed our stay. The location was great, the view was spectacular and the inside of the house was clean and very comfortable. However the outside of the house was a different story. The front and side yards were full of weeds and junk. The deck and the stairs in the back of the house are in need of repairs and the whole house could use a few coats of paint. In general the place needs a lot of TLC.

We have a contractor who has cancelled many times to do the decks and the exterior work he has been paid for. I hope we will get the here this week to do the power washing and painting railings and decks. A work in progress with the weather.

I was thrilled to find the house spotless and had the heater on upon our arrival. The fresh apples and oranges were a delightful bonus. This location is truly the perfect escape for relaxation, complete with breathtaking, beach, views, and close to everything in town. The house is fully equipped, eliminating any concern about needing to buy extra essentials. Nestled in a quiet area it feels like a hidden gem. I am eagerly looking forward to my next day just a small note. The main shower tub has some drainage issues and the showerhead could use an upgrade.

My husband and I have stayed at the Salty Dog before and we have always enjoyed our stay there. It is in a very nice location with lovely beach views. The home could use some sprucing up and more deep cleaning, but otherwise we love spending time here.

We had an awesome stay at the Salty Dog. The location was incredible, and we really liked the house: cool recipe books and other great books to read, games and puzzles, the hot tub, breathtaking views of the ocean. Grateful to the owner for making this place available.

We loved the location of the house, although an older house and needing some minor maintenance it was nothing that made our stay unpleasant, we loved the house and didn’t have to worry about being extra careful because it was new! The views from the house are amazing and the beach is so close! The beds are very comfortable and clean! The house is well stocked, and the added gift of apples was so nice!We would definitely stay there again!

Perfect location. Needs a deep cleaning.

Steps away from a beautiful and empty beach. The house has everything you need for a comfortable stay. However, like many of the other reviews have said, the house needs a much needed deep cleaning.

We finally have a new housekeeper working on just that problem on all the homes. We do not get much time between guests but she is doing 4 to 6 hours at each house. With the salt and sand blowing we always need an extra touch. Now if the construction company already paid to paint the exterior decks and railings would show up.

The host communicated clearly and timely. The home had all kitchen needs covered, which was great for our family to prepare holiday meals. The home was decorated beautifully for the holidays, which was a nice surprise. My children are all adults and we have dogs, so the home was perfect, including the hot tub and ease of keeping the tile/linoleum clean and free of sand. It would not be safe for young children given the stairs and deck railings. The downstairs bathtub is not draining well and needs some love, but everything else was perfect.
