AI-generated from guest reviews for this property
This adorable two-level Manzanita vacation rental is just steps from the beach, shops, galleries, and restaurants. With unique touches and ocean views, you and your guests will have a memorable experience in this beautiful space. Outside, there's a yard for kids to play, partially surrounded by trees. And just about two houses away - beach access! Enjoy seven miles of beautiful, flat, sandy beach. Run, fly kites, or bring a picnic down to the beach and spend a sunny afternoon watching the waves roll in.
Several day trip destinations are nearby, including Cannon Beach for gallery browsing and antiquing in Wheeler, less than 15 miles away. Museums and the Fort George Brewery in Astoria are about 40 miles north, with plenty of opportunities for photo-taking along the way.
Inside, you will be enveloped in warm pastels and plenty of windows. Do a little storm-watching out the west-facing upstairs windows. The main living area is upstairs, decorated with an eye-catching shabby chic aesthetic. With colors like blue, greens, and yellows, this space has a decidedly clean, beachy feel. Lounge back on the couch and watch a DVD on the TV, or choose some board games to play with the group.
In the open kitchen, cheery bright yellow cabinets greet you, as well as all the major appliances you'll need for whipping up a pot of satisfying clam chowder or pan-roasting some steaks. Once you're finished with dinner, you will be happy to find a convenient dishwasher to make clean-up a breeze. In the mornings, brew a cup of fresh ground coffee in the coffee maker and head out to the deck to enjoy the morning ocean views. After fueling up, if it's a nice day, make the hike up to Neahkahnie summit for fantastic views all down the coast to Tillamook Bay.
Easily walkable from the house, you'll find a nice collection of bookstores along the main drag of Laneda Avenue. Spend the day reading on the beach or at your cozy dining room window seat next to the table. After dinner, curl up on the cushions with a glass of merlot and gaze out at the ocean. In addition to the dining table, there are bar stools at the kitchen counter to grab a quick snack or set up your laptop and check your email with the complimentary WiFi.
After spending the day beachcombing, collecting shells, and flying kites, you'll have a private hot tub and propane grill on the deck. This upper deck wraps around the whole front of the home and has plenty of patio furniture, so you'll be able to find your favorite spot to relax. You can even take advantage of the outdoor firepit to share stories and roast some s'mores!
The main level bedroom has a TV and a futon for extra sleeping space. This room has tall, slanted ceilings and a pretty iron bed frame. Downstairs, the second bedroom also has a TV, and the second living room has a sofa bed for another sleeping option.
Other amenities include a laundry room with a washer/dryer and central heating for those chilly coast nights. After a long day on the beach, come back to a warm and toasty house.
Whether it's at the height of the summer season, or a quiet winter weekend, the Oregon Coast is truly a year-round destination. And at this cozy, Manzanita getaway, everyone in your group will feel right at home.
