The loft has a queen bed. This house is for the young, or young at heart as it's got a ladder-stairway to the loft.

Nice little get away

My husband and I arrived at our little cabin on Sunday, Property is as described. I wouldn’t recommend this for anyone having issues with climbing. As you have to climb steep ladder like stairs to get to the bed to b the loft. Besides the neighbors yelling at night and the neighborhood dogs barking often, everything was peaceful and quiet with the neighborhood. Five minute walk to the gorgeous beach. Close to town and close to the local shops. This isn’t really a secluded cabin as it looks in the photos. It’s like it’s in someone else’s backyard. But still in a nice area. Would stay again!

Beach walking

I enjoyed my stay at the cottage and liked the close proximity to the beach and other interesting view points.However, the upstairs bedroom was too much for me , being 79 years old. I could handle the stairs in the daytime, but was afraid of a fall during the night , since older persons often need to use the bathroom during the night, and that was downstairs. You might mention this when you advertise! Otherwise I enjoyed my stay! Thank you for the experience, Elke Longbottom

Amazing cabin in an amazing location!

Me and my fiancé came down to Florence with our 2 dogs to celebrate our engagement and this cabin really made it special! Small and cozy for our little family and extremely close to the beach 5 min walk later and you can have your toes in the sand with your pups running around living their best life! 100% we will be returning in the future!

Anchors Away

We had a wonderful stay. The cabin was clean and the kitchen had everything we needed. We appreciated the privacy the trees on the property provided. The bed in the loft was comfortable, but the sleeping areas provided downstairs were not ideal. A thin pad on plywood benches. A very dog friendly beach was a short walk away. Overall it was a great experience for the cost.

Not enough heat

The heater is not capable of warming the place to a comfortable level. All the furniture and floor were too cold for comfort, and using the bathroom was like going into a walk-in cooler. Only the bedroom loft got warmish.

Super fun! Short walk to the beach. We brought our cruiser bikes but it was so far to ride into old town.

This was such a unique experience, and it made my trip to Oregon extra special. The walk to the beach was so easy I was able to go down there every day to relax and enjoy the sunset, even after a full day of working and seeing other sites. Plus the rental company was so friendly when I had questions. I would definitely stay there again.

Small A frame .with late 60s early 70s theme. Would not recommend it for people with problems climbing steep stairs. Close to beach (nice hike) and well within a nice bile ride to old town and food.

This is a cozy cabin, perfect for two people. It was clean and very eclectic in a good way! The neighborhood was quiet and nice. Walk to the beach is short. The beach nearby is very nice.

It Was OK

This is a very old, small A-frame cabin with a ladder to a loft that has a bed. If you can’t climb stairs, keep looking. This cabin kept us dry and warm, the kitchen was useable, and the bathroom was functional. The wi-fi was excellent. The owner/manager was very nice and available.

Cute retro cabin

This cute little A frame cabin looks so 1970's but in a really good way. Tucked back in the trees, it feels very cozy and secluded. Just a few short blocks to the beach.

This is a fun stay in a bygone decade - namely the 70’s. The location is wonderful. We spent time on the sunny quiet deck watching birds and squirrels and listening to the ocean waves. It’s a short walk to the beach. My only complaint is after 2 days I was in need of a comfortable lounge chair.

Loved being close to the beach

The cabin was super-clean, which I really appreciated. Many beach houses I have stayed in smelled moldy, but not this one. Everything smelled fresh and clean. My only concern was feeling cold the first night. I did not realize I could adjust the wall heater, and I woke up shivering. I was able to find another comforter and turn up the heater so that I slept comfortably the last two nights.
