About this property

Beautifully Updated Oceanfront Cottage with a Hot Tub in Downtown, Beach Access!

The Weather Gauge - Meredith Lodging

This sweet blue cottage has been hosting seaside guests in the perfect location since 1925, but you’d never know it inside—thoughtful renovation designed for the modern guest makes it a sleek showcase of practicality and comfort. You’ll climb stairs to reach the front door to a pristine, white interior, bright with ocean light and contemporary furnishings, and blessed with Pacific views. Sit back on sofas in front of the wall-mounted TV, dine at the playful dining table, or engage in conversation in the little sitting area off to the side—you’ll always be comfortable with the modern heating/air-conditioning system. Cooking in the polished galley kitchen is a breeze—you’ll love the new appliances and glossy blue tile—and you can grill out in the little fenced yard and eat at the picnic table in the ocean breeze or check out the private beach access. You’ll love the queen bedroom and sparkling bath on the main level; the upstairs double twin under skylit eaves with a view of the sea is a dreamy retreat.

Your location is superb: you’re steps from miles of level sand, surf and views of Twin Rocks. When you’re ready for a change of scene, rinse off the sand in the home’s outdoor shower and walk to restaurants and shops in Rockaway Beach’s downtown. Catch an old-fashioned ride on a steam train on the Oregon Scenic Railroad to Garibaldi and back, passing beautiful bays and sloughs along the coast. Jump in the car to explore the whole North Coast. At the end of the day, you’ll be back to your cottage by the sea for another memorable sunset.

Fantastic experience at the cottage! This is a perfect place for a couple, a small group of adults or a family of 4-6. Interior is clean annd exactly as pictured. The two baths and two levels create user flexibility. The ocean views and direct location to the beach were incredible A short walk (less than a minute) through the dunes puts you right at the waters edge. Communication with the owner was prompt, thorough and helpful. Highly recommend!

We enjoyed having a fenced yard and a short walk to the beach. The neighbors were hosting a wedding so it very much felt like we were sharing a backyard. There is not much privacy, but luckily the neighbors were kind and respectful. Very walkable area and overall enjoyed our stay in this unit.

Perfect place for a family of 4. Loved the beach access, hot tub, and great views. Only a few blocks away from all Rockaway has to offer so we walked everywhere. Clean and great appliances. We would definitely come back again.

Beautiful setting

Lovely property with a beautiful view. Beds were very comfortable and the hot tub was a huge plus! Only bummer was the stovetop was broken so we weren't able to cook all the food we brought and had to do eat out more than anticipated. They did bring in hot plates eventually so we were able to cook everything the rest of the weekend. Would definitely come back!

Best trip ever

We had the best time at the Weather Gauge - the view and the beach itself is incredible. Perfect location to walk to dinner, drive up for a day in Seaside or Cannon Beach, do some quick easy hikes, and play on the beach. Would definitely stay here again!

Oregon getaway

Property is as pictured in photo and accomodated our party of 4 adult women. Trundle beds upstairs are great for kids but could be a challenge for adults. Both bathrooms downstairs and stairs to climb from parking outside. But kitchen and living area with windows to see the ocean . Hottub was in great shape! Beach towels and extra blankets came in handy!

Girls Weekend Getaway

The property was fantastic! We weren’t able to use the hot tub the first night because the temperature was set too low and needed the entire night to come up to temperature, but otherwise kept temperature the rest of our trip and was very relaxing. The property was impeccably clean, very bright & welcoming. Loved the couch for a late night movie. Loved the direct access to the beach. Thank you!

Rockaway beach stay

Enjoyed our stay here. Good location for exploring both north and south of Rockaway beach. Hot tub was great after long days of exploring the coast. Pictures accurately showed the house. Very clean. Just be careful on stairs going down from upstairs bedroom. We slipped going down twice.
