About this property

Whales and Outstanding Rocky Surf Views from this Depoe Bay Oceanfront Perch!

Gardner Family House #1

If you’re wishing for time to watch the ocean crash on rock, pelicans and seabirds fish and whales roll through the swell, Gardner Family House’s upstairs unit will give you the perfect perch over the south shore of Depoe Bay. You can overlook
boats braving the surge and surf as they motor in and out of Depoe Bay harbor. The kelp beds just off your backyard are attractive to seals, birds and the occasional whale, and you’re likely to see lots of spouting from whales around and beyond the bay. You’ll love the big picture windows looking north and west in the living room, and you’ll be very comfortable in the reclining chairs and the sofa, which folds out to a queen sleeper. A TV/DVD and wood-burning fireplace will keep you cozy and
entertained after the brilliant sunset fades in the west. You really can’t escape the stunning view: the dining room has a west-facing picture window, you can watch whales in two directions from the fully equipped kitchen and you can sit in bed and
watch the gulls wheeling in the morning light from either bedroom. Walk across the harbor bridge to the breakfront, enjoy investigating the row of Depoe Bay’s interesting shops or catch a Zodiac whale-watching boat across the street. There’s
Thai food across the highway or seafood at the Spouting Horn or Tidal Raves. Everything you need for a great vacation is within walking distance and you’re a half hour from Newport or Lincoln City by car. Don’t miss the unforgettable magic of this
wonderful location—book today!

Rocky shores

Overall the property and the stay was excellent. The only think that it needed is that the blinds in the bedroom were in need of repair. They didn't close.

This house was absolutely everything!! Who doesn’t love an amazing ocean view when eating dinner, enjoying the fire place or even doing the dishes! During our stay the weather was horrible and all of our plans were cancelled but, we made the most of Depoe Bay staying here was exactly what we needed! Will definitely be booking again!

Excellent Property - Great View and Location

My wife and I stayed with her sister and husband. It was a working vacation for me, but a true vacation for the rest of the family. We absolutely love this location and have been there three times over the last couple of years. There has recently been some great upgrades to the kitchen and bathroom. Being pet friendly is a great add!

Amazing Views of Depoe Bay & Harbor Access

A friend and I stayed in this beautiful home. We spent hours sitting in the recliners watching boats go in and out of the harbor, whales spouting & breaching, seals playing in the surf, people fishing below, and waves pounding the rock below. It was such a wonderful and relaxing time. Highly recommend!

Great job on the remodel and adding a half bath! Great addition. Shower a bit challenging to not be blasted with cold water at start and keeping the water from getting outside the shower area, but very pretty and improvement over what was there before.

Magical location

We enjoyed a 3 night stay at the Gardner House property. The house was immaculate and had all that we needed for a cozy stay. 1 block walk to town shops. View of the ocean was spectacular with the sound of the waves ever present in the home. We all enjoyed our stay!

Outstanding view with a very relaxing vibe.

Check in was very easy. Home was clean and has a relaxing vibe that makes you feel right at home. The views were incredible. We were able to watch the whale right from the home. Location was great with easy access to great restaurants and coffee shops. Would recommend this home to any family looking for a relaxing time. Beach access was a short drive. Great memories were made!

Beautiful ocean views

The views are stunning and the proximity to town is a perfect afternoon walk. Plus walking around the neighborhood was pleasant. There were plenty of kitchen supplies for cooking meals, although the stove and fridge and microwave are a little antiquated. Sometimes the burners didnt work, but the kitchen and bath had a charming vintage feel to it. the only complaint i would have is the dirty carpets. They charged us $90 to bring our 2 dogs and from the looks of it, almost everyone brings their dogs. There were 15-20 dark pet stains throughout the home. you would think with the amount they charge to stay and bring our pets they could shampoo the carpets so they are fresh when the next guest arrive. Heck I bought a carpet cleaner for $100 for my home. So technically they could purchase one with our pet deposit we just paid and clean the carpets between guests. The gals through the service were very nice and pleasant to work with. We would stay there again because of the views and location. But maybe inquire if the carpet have been shampooed recently.

We loved it

This property has fantastic views that you can watch the boats coming in and out of the Depoe Bay harbor. Cleanliness is super important to us and this rental met our standards. The kitchen and bathroom are definitely dated but clean and that’s what matters. The property manager was quick to respond when we couldn’t figure out the door lockbox and checked to see if everything was going well. Very attentive. We would definitely recommend this rental and stay here again!
