Slice of the 70s
Adorable house, straight out of the 70s with the decor and build. Plenty of space before the next property so it was quite and private. Quick walk to the ocean, quick drive to town. On clear nights it was wonderful to just lay out a blanket and watch the stars.

Wonderful Quaint Getaway
This was a wonderful house for our large family to stay in while we visited the Brookings area. 4 bedroom, 2 bath with a bonus upstairs family room allowed each person space. The home is still proudly displaying the original decor, but is clean and quaint. Lots of amenities for the guests - high chair, easy access laundry, full pantry of cooking utensils and dishes for 12 or more, large fridge. We will stay again if given the chance!

Memorable
First, I must say that I fell ill and was unable to join my family. Jean's directions for locating the property were spot on, with family coming from Washington and Oregon having no problem locating it. Everyone was impressed with the ambiance of the house. It was beautifully arranged and well-stocked. They enjoyed the beach immensley and my great=grandson had an amazing time flying his kite. This get-together was to honor my eldest daughter's untimely passing. Thank you, Jean, for sharing your lovely home. I wish I could have been there.

Great deal for Ocean views!
A wonderful space for a large group! Most cooking/baking items were available. You do have to cross the 101 when walking to the beach, but it was a short walk overall. Plenty of linens for everyone! Showers were hot and had plenty of hot water. I would stay again.

About the host

Hosted by Dana with the Johnston Family

Host profile image
This beautiful area was the inspiration for our artist/sculptor father. It also was the perfect place to raise children.
Most days almost always begin with a walk on our 2+ miles of uncrowded beach.

Why they chose this property


First off it is in the country so no crowds of people. The great room is stocked with a game table, lots of games, puzzles, a Smart TV and a library. All of these are available while enjoying a magnificent ocean view. Sunsets over the ocean are a special treat. Need to get out of the house? Across the street is an uncrowded 2 miles of sandy beach. Great for walking or jogging. Hike the redwood trails. Take a self guided sight seeing tour up or down the coast or through the redwoods. There are lots of places to park and enjoy the view.
Try the local food establishments, they serve wonderful local and fresh foods. Need groceries? Safeway in Crescent City and Fred Meyer in Brookings, Oregon have pick up service, just place your order on line.

What makes this property unique

This home is set back from the highway and located on 3 acres surrounded by pasture land. Follow the paved driveway around to the back of the house and you will find a 1 car garage, a ramp to the back door for easy access and plenty of parking for your cars, boat or RV.
You will also find a secluded yard with a 2 BBQ's, propane or charcoal and comfortable chairs for relaxing.
Watch for deer, herds of elk and covies of quail. You can also enjoy a variety of colorful birds. In August the blackberry vines are hanging with juicy berries. They make delicious cobblers. Bring jars if you like to make jam.
