About this property

Whale’s Tail Cottage - Meredith Lodging

With its unparalleled location on the sand in front of Pacific City’s Haystack Rock, Whale’s Tail Cottage will bring your guests incredible memories of their stay at the beach. You can walk right out of the house to miles of sandy beach, surfers riding the waves, marvelous tide pools, challenging dunes to climb, and dory boats landing on the beach with their fresh catch. As if that weren’t enough, walking a short distance north on the sand lands you at the award-winning Pelican Pub or the upscale Meridian Restaurant!

The custom home itself is a special treat: with three bedrooms and three baths (including two primary suites, and one bedroom with ocean views), it’s perfect for teaming up with your besties for a stay at the beach. A beautifully appointed living room with a gas fireplace and ocean views is a terrific place to gather, and the dining table shares the ocean view. Even the pretty, retro farmhouse kitchen looks out to Haystack Rock over the sink, and it’s fully equipped for eating in.

A deck off the dining room invites you to sit back and watch world-class sunsets over the dunes and Haystack Rock. If you’re planning a trip to the beach, why not stay where you can enjoy it every minute, indoors and out? This inviting home and its stellar location may become your go-to retreat, year after year!

Precarious weather, flawless stay

We had a great stay, and excellent communication via text. There was a flooding storm that blocked roads getting to Pacific City. We were able to navigate to avoid the flooding, then the weather subsided, thankfully. Very thankful for easy and fast communication with Meridith Lodging.

Ideal getaway

Very nice and clean property with amazing view. All rooms, kitchen and living room were comfortable. Overall our stay was enjoyable and we recommend this place. Only suggestion is that it would be nice to have coffee and other basic spices available.

Oregon coast stay

The location was perfect. The house had random toys out, a dirty rag in the living room, and many of the dishes were dirty. It was well equipped.

One for the bucket list !

It was amazing and a once in a lifetime experience for my family. The house has everything so well planned out for convenience and comfort. We loved playing in the sand and the view is to die for. The walk to the water was a little steep but that was expected in Oregon. If you are thinking about getting this property just do it.. It was so relaxing and soul filling.
