About this property
Hand Built Gem with Two Large Decks and Incredible Views 1 4 Mile to the Beach
Summary:
Escape to Oceanside
The Space:
The spectacular landscape of the Northern Oregon Coast awaits when you stay at this beautiful hand-crafted Oceanside vacation rental. With a superb location just a quarter-mile from the beach and breathtaking views of the coast from not one but two south-facing decks, this homey cabin infuses your vacation with a unique touch of the Pacific Northwest.
Tucked away in the quiet village of Oceanside, this home is perfect for anyone hoping to escape the crowds of Oregon's more popular coastal towns. Stroll down the hill to the broad, sandy beach, where you can explore tide pools, go kitesurfing, or marvel at the rugged terrain. For a change of pace, hike up to the lighthouse at Cape Meares, or head into nearby Tillamook for a tour of its world-famous Cheese Factory. (We recommend picking up some groceries while you're there - Oceanside only has a couple of restaurants and no markets.)
The house is built entirely from wood and boasts an unobstructed 15-mile view of the water and shoreline, along with two spacious decks for admiring the scenery. Inside, you'll find two separate sections: a main suite with two bedrooms and a loft, and a smaller studio with a private entrance. There's no TV, but you'll find plenty of books, speakers for your music, and free WiFi for checking your social media and chatting with friends back home. Both the main house and the studio also include their own kitchens with a stove, microwave, fridge, and dishwasher, plus private access to their own deck.
Escape to Oceanside for an Oregon getaway you'll never forget. Book your reservation today!
*Please note that cell service is very poor in Oceanside, and will be a little better toward the road or much better in Netarts (two miles away). Please plan accordingly!

Our view of the ocean was spectacular!! Pictures of the house were slightly deceiving, the interior of the property was worn and much older than it appeared online.

Thanks so much for the kind words. It makes our day to know Escape to Oceanside’s authentic, unique character continues to be a favorite retreat. We set the space up to showcase the coastline’s atmosphere and give guests a calm place to unwind and make memories, so hearing that it resonated means a lot. We look forward to welcoming you back and helping you relax by the ocean.
A little bit on the rustic side this is a great “get away from it all” spot. The views are astounding and the location makes a great base camp to explore up and down the coast.

Thank you for taking the time to share your stay. We’re so pleased Escape to Oceanside felt like a true get-away-from-it-all retreat and that the views and location made a great base for exploring the coast. We’d love to welcome you back for another coastal adventure.
The one thing that came as a surprise (that I would have liked to know in advance) was the fact that there was no television. I guess TVs are so ubiquitous, I just make the assumption that there IS one. And even a voracious reader like myself likes to veg out with some TV on vacation. I'm not saying I wouldn't have chosen the property--but I would have brought a laptop so I could stream a show in my down-time.That was a minor hiccup, though--overall the property is lovely, a quick walk from the beach and a beautiful view from windows and deck.

We’re glad Escape to Oceanside gave you a lovely setting for a coastal getaway. Your note about the television is helpful, and we’ll make sure this detail is clearly stated in the listing so future guests can plan their downtime accordingly. The home’s peaceful atmosphere and connection to the beach are a special part of its appeal, and we appreciate you choosing to experience it.
We enjoyed our stay. The location was perfect, less than 5 minute walk to the beach. The view fantastic. We appreciated the rustic feel and beds were very comfortable.

Thanks for taking a moment to share your thoughts. We’re glad the short walk to the beach, fantastic view, and the home’s rustic charm—plus those comfy beds—helped make your stay at Escape to Oceanside relaxing. We’d love to welcome you back.
If it wasn’t for the view and the location it wouldn’t be worth it. Overall the stay was enjoyable but it wasn’t the cleanest stay we have ever had and the home could use some updated amenities/list of amenities. For example, the listing showed there was a grill available which there was not.
Property Was as described, great location, even better view and proximity to the beaches was amazing. WiFi did not work, and with cell service not available made it difficult to communicate with the property owners. Not sure if it was just our bad luck but did not seem like the hot water lasted very long. A couple clean off showers after the beach and the hot water was gone. Overall we really enjoyed our time, and would book here again
Fun place to stay that’s so close to the beach-we love Oceanside and haven’t stayed at this house before, but it was perfect for us! Thanks for a fun experience!
The view from every room was amazing. Being on a hillside made it feel like we were in a treehouse! We saw 30 shooting stars from the deck, gorgeous sunsets and soothing wave sounds the whole time. The cabin is perfect!

It sounds like you had such a magical stay! Those sweeping hillside views and feeling tucked into a “treehouse” setting really make a place unforgettable. We’re especially glad you were able to enjoy those peaceful moments on the deck - sunsets, shooting stars, and the calming sound of the waves all come together to create something truly special at Escape to Oceanside. We’d love to welcome you back anytime for another serene coastal escape.

We enjoyed a great view from the property, which was a highlight of our stay. We were pleasantly surprised to find toilet paper, paper towels, dish soap, and scrubbers provided. Shampoo, conditioner, and body wash were also available, though the bottles in one of the showers were empty, and there was no hand soap.The outdoor trash was full when we arrived and wasn’t emptied until the day after we reported it. The place has rustic charm but needs upkeep and some renovating. It also needs a deeper clean—there were cobwebs, etc.The biggest disappointment was the kitchen. Supplies were disorganized and incomplete. There was only one baking pan, and it didn’t fit in the oven. The single oven mitt was unusable, so we had to go out and buy both baking pans and oven mitts. Measuring cups were mismatched and incomplete—mostly old or random pieces rather than a proper set. Most of the places that we have been to have shellfish crackers, since this is a destination for crabbing, but there wasn’t even one. For the price of the rental, a complete set of basic, functional kitchen items should be standard.
Great location with rustic charm. The property offers amazing views and is just steps away from the Oceanside beach.

Please know that your feedback is essential, and we have passed your comments along to our local manager, who will work with the homeowner to make any updates. We look forward to welcoming you back for another wonderful getaway in the future!
Absolutely love this home. The views are incredible and the home is so unique and charming. It was such a treat to wake up to these views each morning and walk down to the beach whenever we felt like it. The home is overdue for a deep clean, but it was satisfactory in terms of the typical turnaround clean.
A great house in a beautiful place--all the features and amenities for comfort, very clean and well appointed, and located in a really beautiful place. Would definitely stay there again!
My husband and I stayed here for our anniversary getaway. The views were beautiful and we enjoyed having large windows to take it all in. However, be mindful that there are no window coverings. The distance to the cafes and beach was perfect. We walked down the hill each day to enjoy the charming community and stunning beach. We appreciated that there were camping chairs and beach towels offered. It was a cozy space and a memorable trip.
We loved the layout and would definitely stay again. The place has a lot of character. With its quarky floor plan. I loved the lack of tv, would love another lamp option in the main living area. (I like to draw so being well lit during sundown hours is nice.) I also know that Keeping up care on that much wood is a lot of work. That said the floor could use a good restain to ensure continued longevity!Beds blankets and extra blankets were so warm and soft.All in all a great place to stay for some time at the beach.
We really enjoyed our stay at this beautiful quiet property. We had a couple rainy days so we enjoyed the view and a puzzle. Close to the beach and a great sunset on tunnel beach. It is a rustic stay that could use some more lighting and mirrors in bedrooms and curtains on bedroom windows but it was a great stay.
