This was a great property. We would stay here again. Beautiful views, wonderful stargazing at night, very dark and quiet! Within driving distance of lots of beach activities, tide pooling, etc. This was a very well stocked VRBO I will say compared to others. Great communication with owner.

We’ve stayed at several VRBOs and this one truly exceeded my expectations in every way - we felt as if we were staying at a very very good friend’s or family vacation home rather than a rental we luckily found on Vrbo. This place had everything we ever could have needed. Though we didn’t need them as we bought our own, there were even had a few extra raincoats and binoculars. I really should have started this review with praising the windows all along the front which provided the most stunning views. Within the first hour we saw two bald eagles. If you want quiet and stunning views this is the place for you. You’ll also appreciate what I thought of as a mudroom at the entrance where you park your car - so useful! It’s so obvious that this is a family beach bungalow - it has that feeling that it’s almost curated to have a relaxing beach trip. We truly hope to visit again and bring our two grandchildren one day.

This was our second time staying at this property and it was just as wonderful as the first time we stayed! The house was clean and neat and had everything we needed to make our week stay comfortable. The weather was cool and wet, but we fully expected that this time of year and it didn't prevent us from going down to the beach every day or enjoying all the hiking and other activities around the area. Communicating with Jim, the host, was incredibly easy and timely. Highly recommend this property to anyone who wants to stay on Oregon's coast.

Absolutely perfect place for a family vacation to the coast. It was the cleanest vacation rental I’ve ever stayed at. We were truly right on the beach and it felt so private, but it was super convenient to Cannon Beach and Manzanita. The hosts pretty much thought of everything in terms of what we would need — tons of board games, a toy chest for kids (my 5yo was DELIGHTED) as well as beach chairs and towels. Kitchen as well stocked with supplies too. We will absolutely be back next year.

This property and its location are phenomenal. The views are hard to depict via words. We often felt like we were the only ones on the beach. Family friendly house, check-in instructions were detailed and spot on, making the stay seamless. Thank you Cove Beach, we are already dreaming of coming back.
