About this property

Dog-Friendly Beach House w/ Spectacular Ocean Views & Easy Access to the Beach

Summary:

Lofty Pelican



The Space:

Welcome to the Lofty Pelican! This 3-story contemporary beach home has a very open and airy feeling with 20-foot high cathedral ceilings, natural wood beams, and sweeping ocean and sunset views. From this home's 24-foot long front deck you can relax to the sounds of crashing waves while sipping a favorite beverage in bliss. Plus, you are only steps away from access to Heceta Beach with its miles of sandy shoreline!



On the ground level there is a two-car garage with a convenient toilet and washer and dryer. Enjoy the ocean air while sitting at the picnic table and watching the kids and dogs play in the large fully fenced back yard.



The main living space is on the second floor and features floor-to-ceiling windows to showcase the open concept and ocean views in every direction. The well-appointed, full kitchen comes complete with a refrigerator, electric range, microwave, and yes, even a dishwasher! Everything you need to prepare and enjoy your fresh catch seafood dinner. The primary bedroom is also located on the main floor and features a new king-size bed, dresser, and a 32' Roku Smart TV (one of three Roku TVs in the home).



Spiral stairs lead up to the third floor loft providing even more living space and ocean views. On a clear day you can see Heceta Head Lighthouse from the North facing window. Whether playing the provided musical instruments or relaxing on the sofa watching tv, or sitting at the table playing cards, board games or puzzles, you’re sure to have a fun time with family and friends.

Good Location with nice property grounds

5 min walk to the beach, excellent property grounds with fenced yard. Extra toilet is dislocated from main living area, but weather was good so not much of an issue for our stay. Would stay here again in a heartbeat.

The property was small but had a view of the ocean. The biggest negative for us was the Avari Property Mngt. (the local Florence contact was great, but the company (headquarters?) was not.) The first issue was with the pet fee. None was listed on the site and when I contacted VRBO no one knew the answer-finally thru VRBO I was connected (phone) to an Avari rep who then told me it was 150. That seems quite high, but at the very least the website needs to note that additional pet fees will apply. Next problem, I received no "reminder" email or contact that the 2nd payment was due. I realized it a few days after the due date and attempted to contact them. It took them a while (24 hrs?) to respond and I told them in the email that I had a different credit card. Despite this they used the cancelled one and contacted me (again) and I asked them which card they had used ( didn't use the new one). Got that sorted out. Next a few weeks out I got a link asking for a selfie and a copy of my drivers license or passport. We have used VRBO at least 6 times before and never were asked for that information. I didn't like the request but I complied only to have trouble with it processing. Repeatedly I got error messages (the photo of passport was illegible- reflective glare). I had at least 3 more back and forth messages with them (probably AI generated) telling me to try this then that. Nothing worked and finally they sent a text saying I could skip that step. Way too much!

2 heaters did not work. No wood for the wood stove. Very cold night. Maintenance came hours later the next day, dropped the stuff on the porch and left without a word.Roof leaked. Mold?Dog feces all over fenced yard, that we had to clean, so we could use.No fan in the bathroom. Thin walls, so everything you do, all can hear.Some towels were stained.

It is a great place to stay, except in cold weather. The little heaters are totally insufficient to heat the high, uninsulated ceiling of the living room and loft. Even the loft does not warm up in the morning. It was like backpacking, get up, dress quickly, including coats and hats. The heaters in the bathroom & bedroom are adequate for those rooms, but the living space is not comfortable until the afternoon.
