About this property

2 Blocks To The Beach, Recently Restored & Pet-friendly

Enjoy this fully restored classic beach house in a quiet Seaside neighborhood. Two short blocks to the beach, the Ocean House features 3 bedrooms, 2.5 baths, plus two other sleeping areas to comfortably accommodate up to nine friends or family members. It's warm and cozy with a high efficiency furnace plus new electric fireplace. You’ll find queen beds in the master bedroom and second bedroom and two single beds in the third bedroom. For your enjoyment after days on the beach, the house features a media room with new 50'' flat screen LED TV with Apple TV and Netflix for movie nights.

The house is fully restored in salvage fir & pine wood and it features a new kitchen and bathrooms as well as a new heating system, natural latex mattresses, and eco-friendly building materials for exceptional indoor air quality and comfort. This spacious, light-filled house is ideal as a retreat space, for family gatherings, or anytime the ocean beckons.

Centrally located in a quiet neighborhood just off the southern side of Seaside’s historic oceanside Promenade, the house is ideal for beach time, nearby golf, surfing at “the Cove,” and hiking Tillamook Head. For family fun, just a half mile away is Seaside’s famous Broadway Street of souvenir shops, bumper cars, cafes, and arcades.

Eco Beach Retreat
Our family enjoyed staying at the Eco Beach House in Seaside. The room layout is great with 2 queen-bed bedrooms and a kids room with 2 twin beds. The kitchen is amply stocked and we cooked some dinners in, and ate out some. The WiFi is fast and allowed us to stream movies and work virtually. We took advantage of the provided beach chairs for some quality sunset viewing. We enjoyed riding the supplied bicycles on the prom and in town. The large coffee table in the living room and the round table in the family room work well for puzzles, cards, and board games. Looking forward to a return trip next summer!

Charming Cottage
Our family and dog stayed for 4 nights. This cottage was very spacious and it was so helpful having 3 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms. Kitchen was well stocked and many towels. After taking the dog to the beach, coming home and having hot and cold water available for a rinsing station outside was very convenient. Just 2 blocks to the beach which was pretty private. It was very unique and charming. Located in the quiet neighborhood. Overall had a great time and would recommend to others.

About the host

Hosted by Dan Kent

Host profile image
We're a beach-loving Portland-based family with three kids (ages 17, 13, and 9) plus a German shepherd and young French bulldog. We love to hike Tillamook Head and run on the beach. Our kids boogie board and are learning to surf. Our experience restoring two 1907 houses in southeast Portland inspired our work on the Ocean House and, in particular, our commitment to making sure that our guests enjoy a healthy, creative space.

Why they chose this property

After nearly two decades of visiting the north Oregon coast, we came upon the beach house in summer 2013. It hadn't been significantly worked on since the 1950s and we were inspired to purchase it and restore it with the goal of creating a long-term family retreat. We're excited to be able to share it with friends, family, and our VRBO guests.
