About this property

Big Blue, 13 Steps to the Beach, Guest House, Game Room, Oceanfront, WiFi, Hot Tub

The Big Blue Beach House: 7 bedrooms, 7 baths, Sleeps 10
It doesn't get any better than this! Our two-story oceanfront home is just 13 steps away from the spectacular Oregon Coast down our private stairway to the beach.
THE MAIN HOUSE has five bedrooms, 4 of these rooms are ocean-front suites, each with a king bed, private en-suite bathrooms, HDTV, and personal patio. We have named these suites; SANDPIPER (downstairs north end), ANCHOR DOWN (downstairs south end), SEA BREEZE (upstairs north end), and TIDE POOL (upstairs south end). The fifth room in the main house is MATES COVE (downstairs south end). Furnished with four custom-built twin bunk beds and one twin pull-out trundle, it can comfortably sleep five and is a favorite of the kids.
The rest of the house is open and spacious with a large great room, extra-large kitchen (more below about the kitchen), and a dining room with a panoramic view. There is also a powder room and a laundry room with a large capacity washer and dryer. The outdoor patio goes the length of the house and is a great place for everyone to relax in a red chair, keep warm at the fire pit and make a delicious smore! Grab one of our many beach towels and find your spot.
The upstairs outdoor space has an eight-person hot tub overlooking the beach by day and the stars by night. There are plenty of towels just before you head out the sliding door and outside on this deck is a half bath.
More about the KITCHEN.
You will love the luxurious kitchen. It’s equipped with a 6 burner gas range that has a griddle and two ovens, There are two dishwashers, two sinks, a 48-inch fridge, and a wine fridge. The cabinets and drawers are stocked with everything you will need - REALLY! Dishes, cutlery, glasses, mugs, platters, crock pots, skillets, pots and pans,mixers, toasters - everything you’ll need to show off your culinary skills. And with seating for 16 at the table and five at the bar, making space for hungry guests is never a problem.
More about the GREAT ROOM.
Big Blue has an incredible view from every room, but the massive windows in the great room that overlook the ocean are breathtaking. The moment you walk into the house you see the ocean. You can watch the sea birds, look for whales, catch the sunset and see the lights of crab boats as they place their nets as you relax by the gas fireplace on the leather sofas or in a swivel chair. There are plenty of books and an HDTV for you to enjoy.
THE GUEST COTTAGE is above the garage and is called The Surf Shack. This is a fun area with a surf vibe that comfortably sleeps up to six. There are two bedrooms both with a king bed; SURFS UP and RIP TIDE. There is a full bathroom and a kitchenette. In the main room, there is plenty of seating with a sofa, chairs, and a pull-out futon so everyone can enjoy the movie on the 65 inch Smart TV.
THE GAME ROOM was a two-car garage but is now a wonderful place to hang out and play air hockey, ping pong, and foosball. The balls, pucks, paddles, and nets are already there, ready to play. There are two sofas, an extra refrigerator, and plenty of extra room. There is also a storage bin with beach chairs for your use.

Great friends and Big Blue

We had an amazing stay at Big Blue. House is just as described and more! Could not ask for a better venue for a gathering of friends. The weather didn’t cooperate for viewing the solar eclipse as we had hoped, but no one complained because we enjoyed ourselves thoroughly!

Big Blue is a special place. We loved being here and 14 people were very comfortable spending time, making meals and visiting together. It rained cats and dogs all weekend, but we were warm and safe inside.

Stunning view

This property was perfect for our 4 families with children of different ages. The view was breath taking, and waking up to it every morning made our stay absolutely worthwhile. Even though we were by the coast in June, we still lucked out with a couple of sunny days. The town was quaint, and everyone was friendly. We liked both restaurants we ate at, and got to do many sightseeing (the seals were just adorable!) The outdoor firepit was a hit for story-telling and s'mores. A few things I'd like to note: -the dishwasher at the guest house was labeled 'out of order' when we arrived, and was in the same condition when we left -there were 2 dishwashers in the main house, but only one operated -the smoke detector in the northwest bedroom kept beeping even after we replaced its battery. I also notice a missing detector in the northwest hallway -on one of the sunny days, we came home around 4 or 5 pm, and the house was very warm (temperature was 84 upstairs). The nice thing was, after we opened all windows and sliding doors, it cooled down after 30 minutes -this property seems to be a favorite to many, which is why I see many other areas needing upkeep (ripped window blinds, no landscape lights, etc.) -many basic spices in the kitchen but no sugar

FANTASTIC 5 DAYS

Everyone in our family absolutely enjoyed every minute spent at the Big Blue. It was magical. Four bedrooms with balconies overlooking the ocean was perfect for our three adult children and us. I can not think of one negative moment, except the West sun beaming into the living room and wishing for some window cover; however, that was only for 2-3 hours in late afternoon. Our 85 yr old was able to walk down the stairs to the beach every day and this was a big bonus. The fire pit was amazing and enjoyed by all. WOW, this is such a special home. It has everything! Our kids enjoyed all the activities in the garage. We hope to return next year. Location is great!

Most peaceful vacation

The Big blue is the perfect place for a peaceful, quiet, relaxing vacation you might be looking for - Most gorgeous house on the beach, only steps away from the sandy beach. Plenty of rooms to accommodate all of our families, all the bedrooms have doors with patio - where you can relax , listening to the sounds of waves - nice breeze. Specious family area open to the kitchen - which is stuffed with all the pots and pans, utensils you may think of - we were able to boil fresh Crabs , cooked several meals everyday as we were not able to dine out for Covid -19. Can never have enough dishwashers- they had two !! Not to mention the outside patio - most beautiful place to have dinner, read a boook, enjoy sunset - We would like to go there over and over again !

Big Blue with the Crew

Big Blue was everything our group of friends with families could have wanted in a beach house. The home was beautiful and well-stocked and the individual bedrooms with ensuite bathrooms made for the necessary privacy for our five families that came together. The home was very clean and it was clear that extra measures were taken to sanitize and clean which we very much appreciated. The patio was amazing and the view and beach could not be beat. Our memories made at Big Blue will be cherished forever.
