About this property

3 BRM Nestucca River Retreat in Pacific City

Our pet friendly home offers the best of the river and the sea. With its own private dock, it is located on the Nestucca River less than I mile from the beach. Whether you are taking advantage of access to one of the best salmon fishing rivers in the country from the dock or just watching the cows mosey through the pasture across the river from the dining room table or our beautiful deck, we dare you not to relax and enjoy. Our friendly rates are affordable allowing you to enjoy your stay longer.

Our living room adjoins the dining room and has plenty of cozy seating whether you’re reading or watching TV. There is a library of DVDs for your enjoyment as well as Yahtzee, Scrabble, cribbage, and many more games to play.

Our updated 3 bedroom home is fully equipped for 8 of your friends and family. We have one bedroom on the main level with direct access to the bath and a comfy queen bed. Upstairs sports a cool denim motif with a king dual controlled sleep number bed in the back bedroom. Bedroom 1 has an oversized double bed and an extra-long twin with a trundle below. Linens are provided.

We are a 1 bath home with a unique twist. There is a door between the shower/tub and sink/toilet areas. Each has its own entrance giving the basics of a 2 bath home.

Our kitchen has been recently updated with granite counter tops and sinks. We feature a refrigerator complete with ice maker, microwave, stove, washer, dryer, and an abundance of small appliances. Service for 8 or more is provided. Ready to picnic at the beach…the ice chest, roasting sticks, and pots for your crab await you.

Do you prefer to BBQ at home? Thel grill and utensils are ready; the outdoor table can be set. Our deck offers a large glass wind break for full enjoyment. Life jackets are available for your youngsters.

Your private dock gives you access for fishing, kayaking, and boating of all kinds. There is a boat launch opposite the grocery store for easy access to the river.

If you are celebrating a special event or just getting away, we welcome you. Remember you are just minutes away from a long walk on the beach, a magical climb up Cape Kiwanda, an award winning brew pub (The Pelican), numerous restaurants and shops. Whether you crab, clam, fish, cycle, hike, surf, hang glide, jet ski the waves of Tierra Del Mar, or 4 wheel the dunes of Sandlake we know it will be a vacation to remember.

River House
Great place to stay in a quiet area. A serene place in the morning down by the dock. The house has everything you would expect to need and the loft area was a great play area for the kids. Very likely that we will try to stay here again.

When we arrived we had to vacume both couches as they had sand and dog hair on them. Lots of cobwebs, had to vacume the ceiling in the living room with daddy longleg spiders. The kitchen was well stocked though. Thank you.

Family Fun
Overall the property was very good and the location allowed us to visit other locations nearby. It was great being on the river yet close enough to the beach. The only negative side was just having one bathroom for 6 adults and the front and back doors were hard to open because they would stick plus the top step coming in was a little too high so we only used the back door. Other than that it was a nice little house and had everything we needed.

Great vacation house!
Wonderful house, great area near the beach. Awesome veiw right out the dining room window. Wish we could have spent more time on the deck. We saw elk right across the river the very 1st day. The house was completley stocked with everything we needed and was super clean. I would recommend to anyone looking for a nice, comfortable vacation home within 5 min of the beach. The cows across the street were very friendly also.

Quick Getaway
My daughter and I needed to vacate her home while home improvements were being done. It was last minute and we needed a place that allowed pets. We were lucky to find this cozy home. It was very comfortable with a well equipped kitchen. We had a minor issue. The owners were very responsive and resolved the issue quickly. The home is close to the beach and a small grocery. There are several small bakeries in town and a great pizza place called Doreyland Pizza. An added bonus was a great blue heron that hung out across the river. He was fun to watch with our binoculars. But if you don't have any there is a pair in a drawer in the living room. I hope you enjoy your stay as much as we did.

Great river location
We had a great, two-week stay with rotating family guests. The house was plenty big for 5 adults to stay comfortably and we could have added one or two more with no big issues. We really enjoyed the wonderful view of the river from inside, the deck outside, the dock, and the very well appointed kitchen. (Plenty of knives, plates, pans, etc. available unlike our experience at many other rentals.) We grilled and cooked enjoying the local fresh fish, worked (wifi was plenty fast), took our SUPs out from the dock, fished (need a license), rented kayaks from just down river, watched cows and birds, went whale watching in Depoe Bay, walked beaches (very close by and very easy access) and had a generally great time. Only drawback is that the house is on a busy road with no side walk so you have to be mindful walking from the house, but there are many great places nearby with no traffic so we were able to find good walking. You really only notice the traffic if you are walking on the road. Being out back on the river is like being in another world. Hosts were very accommodating, helpful, and responsive. Hope we are lucky enough to stay for even longer next summer.
