Property was great location. Didn't know it was a duplex until final instructions. Ran out of TP on last morning. The yard was pretty and ocean view was fantastic. Easy walk to beach. Best weather ever this trip.
The location and the house are amazing. Really need to replace refrigerators. Also, the BBQ grill was basically unusable

The Perfect Spot
Clean and inviting home. A beautiful spot with views of the ocean and the twin rocks. Plenty of room for our entire family. Just a short stroll to be on the beach. Hope to make this an annual event.
The property has stunning views and room for everyone. We were really glad the weather cooperated so we could eat at the large outdoor table. The accommodations were cozy and comfortable. There are lots of things to do nearby. We rode the train RT to Girabaldi, we walked in the old growth forest, had campfires, flew kites & went to ice cream and the candy store. Jan was very helpful & communicated well. Another great trip in the books.

Very nice, large home ON the beach
This home has a very large deck overlooking the beach. The inside of the home is very clean. With two living room areas and kitchens; the home was recently remodeled and very nicely done. Not an open concept floor plan, but this allows numerous bedrooms and living areas. The family is looking forward to renting this wonderful home next year.
Great place to gather. Comfortable and quiet. A wonderful beach for walks and wading. The Twin Rocks are amazing. Rockaway Beach is a fun coastal town. All ages enjoyed strolling the shops and buying souvenirs.
The house is a lovely older beach cottage with a homey personality. The refrigerators need to be upgraded. We would return, maybe for our next sibling's 80th birthday.
Potential to become a gem if upgraded. Right on beach.
Two separate but connected units. One can sleep 4 and the other can sleep 8, anything more would be a stretch.
Its right on the beach.
When we checked in, house was reasonably well cleaned except for Kitchen, especially fridge which still had some left over food, empty cans etc. The difficulty (at least for us) was that living space in the unit on south is hardly enough to fit in our entire group of 12.
If the house undergoes renovation/upgrades in living, kitchen and basement.. it will become a gem in that area.
We had wonderful time.
The place is brilliantly laid out for a comfortable gathering, tons of spaces for different activities. Really magically situated to the ocean and the twin rocks. Literally perfect. Wonderful, communicative host.
While this property is old in age, It had all the amenities we wanted. It is actually a duplex, but it worked well for us. We loved the large deck and used it regularly for meals and table games. The landscaping is also nice and well cared for. While the kitchens were small and posed a bit of a challenge for our large group, they were updated and well equipped! Overall, a good value for a large place. We will likely re-book soon for next year!
This is the perfect house for a family gathering. With direct access to the beach as well as vows from the bedrooms I highly recommend this property. In addition, Brian and Janet are great hosts, very responsive and even suggested local attractions. 5 stars are absolutely warranted here.
Wow! We pulled up to a cozy beach house with lovely landscaping and flowers. The back deck has an amazing view of the ocean, the Twin Rocks, sunset and if you are up early enough you can watch the moon set. There was a hammock for relaxing and a large deck table for outside meals. There is an easy path to take to the beach. Most importantly, the house was very clean. Owners were responsive and easy to work with and check-in was simple. We would rent this property again.
This home made for an amazing vacation. It was clean, cozy and perfectly located on the beach. The owners were wonderfully accommodating. I urge anyone looking at Rockaway to stay here.
We stayed for a couple days and had a great stay. The twin rocks are beautiful and the beach is unpopulated compared to other regional towns. The kids loved the beach. Location couldn’t get better! The house is older with small rooms and it gets warm on hot days without A/C.
We had 8 adults and one child 9years old. The house set up was perfect, we loved how you could walk to the beach from the house, and watch the sun set from the deck. It was a perfect location to see several other places also, if you dove 1 hr in either diction there were numerous this to do and see. Thank you
Janet the owner was great to work with The views are amazing from the property Great deck to have a meal with 9 family members. Had a long table with seating for 10Walking the beach was a true delight Had 2 kitchens 6 bedrooms Highly recommend this property
We loved this property so much! We had great communication from the owner, the check in was a piece of cake, and we had everything we needed. Thanks for sharing your home with us!
My family and I stayed at this property for three nights; the property was dirty upon arrival; floors had food on them, dirt, and sand, and we needed to vacuum the morning after arrival because everyone's feet were black from the dirt and grime. My dad, his girlfriend, and my nephew stayed in the back part of the property, and there were no sheets placed on the beds and no way for us to put new sheets on the beds; we had to wait for the housekeeper to come to do that. I reached out, and that issue was resolved within a few hours. The beds were tiny and rickety; one of the bedroom's bed frames was falling apart, and the boards under the mattress had to be adjusted every time my sister and her partner went to bed. We brought groceries and stored food in the refrigerator, and the freezer began leaking on our food in fridge. Overall, the house was not what we expected and was not worth the money we paid. The beach access was phenomenal, but we will stay in Seaside or Lincoln City next time because it was not worth it.
Since our stay, Jan has reached out to me twice. Once, she accused us of breaking her deck without proof, and now she's told me we left her filthy house so dirty it took her two days to clean it after us. We followed the cleaning requests, vacuumed, and cleaned up after ourselves. If you plan to stay with a large party, I would do so with caution. They'll try to pin property damage and cleaning issues on you and your party.
We just loved our stay here! It is a fabulous home with an incredible view. Everything is so comfortable. Eating dinner on the deck was a favorite. Our family cannot wait to come back!
An added bonus is that the owners are so wonderful and helpful. I highly recommend staying here. You will never want to go anywhere else.
Brian and Janet were great communicators, the house had all we needed. Both kitchen’s are so well stocked. The deck was so much fun to sit out on with a perfect view of Twin Rocks! The yard is Beautiful and lots of parking! Appreciate getting to rent the house.

About the host
Hosted by Janet Murphy
This is a family beach home and true to that title it is a family effort to continue to own it. My two brothers and I grew up in the Mt. Tabor area of Portland and attended Franklin High School. We all still reside in the area and each of us loves the beach. We still refer to it as Twin Rocks, even though it has been incorporated into Rockaway Beach. We visit as often as possible and now our children and their children also use the house as a place to get away.
Why they chose this property
When my two brothers and I were children we used to spend our summers visiting my grandparents at their beach cabin in what was then Twin Rocks. We used to play in the woods across the street. One year when we came the trees had all been cut down. Little did I know then that the house that was to be built would one day be a place where my children would create their own beach memories. When our father purchased the house he went out on a limb financially. The first time down after the sale I stood out front with him and he said, 'This is your inheritance. There won't be anything else.' Today, this house means the world to me and to each of our families. Through the years it has become a way to connect with family and friends. It is our sincerest hope that our renters will also be able to create lasting memories for their family.
What makes this property unique
You only need to walk in the front door and look out the window once to realize why we love this house. The view is unequal. It's like a movie set. The house sitting steps away from the beach. Being able to sit on a deck and watch waves pounding the sand and crashing against the two giant rocks just off shore. It is truly an amazing place.
