It's A Shore Thing that you will have a wonderful time and create beautiful memories at this delightful ocean front home. Sit back, relax, and watch the ocean waves roll up on the beach from the comfort of this home which is nestled right in the sandy dunes. A Shore Thing is conveniently located on the central Oregon coast with 2 bedrooms, 2 baths and can sleep up to 6 guests.

The brightly lit living area is open to the kitchen and dining room and is great for friends and family to enjoy time together and to watch the Pacific Ocean and the ever-changing sand dunes. A Shore Thing's wall of west facing windows will fill the space with light, and with its nautical and beachy decor, is guaranteed to add cheer to even the stormiest coast days. A cozy electric fireplace adds to the enjoyment of the room. Watch your favorite movie or show on the large flat screen TV in the living room after a busy day exploring the beach.

A Shore Thing has a Primary bedroom with a king bed and fabulous ocean views that you can curl up in bed and enjoy! The second bedroom has a queen bed and a built in twin bunk bed.

The ocean facing deck is the perfect spot to enjoy on a sunny day where you can grill up an amazing catch of the day or sip on a favorite drink while you watch the sun sink into the Pacific.

Feel more active? Head straight out onto the sand to stroll, jog, fly a kite, or just meander on the long, sandy beach. There is plenty of sand waiting to be transformed into sandcastles, and when you return from your beach adventure, you'll enjoy cleaning up in the outdoor shower conveniently located inside the back door.

Lovely little beach home
This was a nice comfortable beach home right in the sand. We enjoyed our stay and would stay again. Note that the kitchen pantry is not stocked at all. Only had salt, pepper and nonstick spray. This was stated in the description but I still found it a bit surprising that there was nothing else even left behind by other renters.

Great beach vacation
Nice place. Would be nice if the paved driveway was cleared of sand. Also, many of the windows had no screens and were difficult to lock. Some could not be locked.

Needs Maintenance
Good location, but the house needs maintenance. the bathtub drain plug system is broken, the dryer has issues, and there was an active birds nest inside the attic/roof where the roof was rotting and decaying. A baby bird fell out and landed right in front of the door. Thankfully our bird hunting dog did not get to it first!

Vacation right in the dunes
Very cute home nestled right in the sand dunes on the beach in Waldport. We had a fabulous time flying kites and exploring the stretch of beach, nearly had the entire place to ourselves. Seal Rock, the aquarium, and Thors Well were only a 10-15 minute drive away. The house was clean and tidy when we arrived. Admittedly the space was slightly tight for our party of 6 (4 adults and 2 kids), but we made do. Be aware there is no closet nor dresser in the second bedroom; even some drawers under the bunkbeds or larger side tables would have made it a little more useable. The kids enjoyed the foosball table in the garage, and the comfy easy chairs in the main room were great for my father in law. This home is in a great location and good for smaller families who want immediate access to the beach.

Exactly what we wanted!
We wanted a quick trip to the beach with friends and their kids. This house was perfect for us - on the beach, clean with a well appointed kitchen. Check in was easy and well communicated. We had to communicate once with property manager and they responded almost immediately. Beach is beautiful, and you should make every effort to go out at low tide. There are seals all over on the bay side. Overall 5/5 would recommend.

Great location…Sandy!
The spot is great. Not right on the water; house is situated on the dunes, and the sand can whip in the wind. But the beach is secluded and a short walk to Alsea bay sand dollars abound! We had a lovely stay. House is cozy. Great spot to unwind.

Disappointing Experience
Upon arriving the general atmosphere and appearance was good but after we got settled in we found issues that could have been avoided. In the description it was noted that there was a coffee maker that used pods but when we went to use it we found that there were parts missing, it was unusable and it was dirty. We hadn't brought regular ground coffee so we were out of luck until we could get to a store. The batteries in the TV remote were missing. The water heater in the garage leaks so there was water all over the floor in the garage and it wasn't clean and it smelled bad. The deck wasn't usable because it was FULL of sand. Many of the window blinds didn't work. The "ocean view" picture was misleading; the view was mostly of a sand dune. Unfortunately we won't be staying here again.

Yearly beach trip
Every year I take myself and my kids to the Oregon Coast. We stay in a different location every year and so far this has been the best. The house was clean and right on the beach! It would be awesome if there was more of a view of the ocean but no one can control the sand drifts!

Wonderful Beachfront Property
A Shore Thing was a very good place to spend time at the beach in Waldport. I have only one suggestion. Please put screens on all windows and make sure they can be opened smoothly, to prevent the house getting stuffy in the afternoons and for sleeping at night.

This was a great house for a quick getaway. House was clean with updated furnishings, making it very comfortable. If you stay her expect LOTS of sand. Just need to come and go through the garage and back door yo get to the beach. We’ll stay again for sure!

Exceeded my expectations!
My family loves to vacation on the Oregon beaches. This was my second experience with Sweet Home vacation rentals, and they are the best property management company on the Oregon Coast. This house is small, but the layout is excellent, the furniture comfortable and clean, and the views lovely. There are plenty of beds, and the kids got a kick out of the built in bunks. I would advise a mattress topper in the master bedroom - my husband had to switch beds because the mattress was so stiff. But I loved waking up and having my first view be of a little bit of ocean through a gap in the dunes. About that sand : through no fault of the property owners, there was a constant barrage of wind and sand that creeped in through every crack, even blocking the back door. A very clever addition to this house is an enclosed outside shower where you can take off your sandy clothes, wash down your sandy kids with warm water, and enter through the garage. A drying rack and space heater in the garage might be helpful.

Christmas with Family
The unit was perfect for our stay in Waldport. It was very clean and had an amazing view. Only downside was it was so close to the beach and the wind blew the sand all over the cars that we ended up parking the smaller car at my parents in fear of getting sand damage.
