Enjoy an adventure-filled family getaway at this Waldport home, perched right on the bank of the beautiful Alsea River! Spend your mornings kayaking on the river, your afternoon sunbathing on the nearby sandy beach, and then take in the gorgeous views of the river and the Siuslaw National Forest beyond as you relax on the outdoor deck with a glass of wine.

With two bedrooms and two full baths, this nicely appointed vacation home makes a relaxing home base for your Oregon Coast retreat. The living room is sunny and bright, with a comfortable sofa and recliner sitting before the flat-screen cable TV with DVD player and a cozy old-fashioned wood stove. On rainy days, you can enjoy the river views through the sliding glass doors even as you curl up by the fire for a movie marathon!

The kitchen is fully stocked with everything you might need to prepare meals throughout your stay: all the expected major appliances (including a dishwasher), microwave, coffeemaker, toaster, pots and pans, glassware, and plenty of dinnerware. All you need to bring is the food! The kitchen has a breakfast bar with a few stools, and the four-person dining table sits next to the wide picture windows overlooking the river. On nicer days, you might even choose to sit outside and dine al fresco!

The house has two spacious bedrooms, including a beautiful master suite with vaulted ceilings. The beautiful cherry bedroom set includes a luxurious queen bed with high-quality linens, and another set of sliding glass doors allows for a private entrance onto the deck and relaxing views of the river. The second bedroom has a full size bed, perfect for another couple or the kids. (new pictures coming soon) Both bathrooms have shower/tub combos, hairdryers, and there is even a washer/dryer provided so you can keep up with the wet bathing suits and hiking gear throughout your visit.

The house itself provides plenty of opportunity for outdoor recreation. A large grassy yard stretches right down to the river, where a private dock beckons you to sit with a fishing pole and while away the hours! Waldport has a few well-stocked outdoor shops with all the equipment you need to fully enjoy your weekend on the river.

Just across the river, the Siuslaw National Forest is full of hiking trails and scenic areas to explore (we suggest the old-growth forest trails in the Drift Creek Wilderness Area). Of course, the sandy beach at Waldport is less than five miles away, about a 10 minute drive, and offers miles of uncrowded sand ripe for beachcombing, kite flying, and sunbathing. The town of Waldport itself sits between you and the beach, and though small, it offers a few quality markets, restaurants, and pubs.

Newport, just half an hour north, will easily meet all of your shopping/dining/entertainment needs, with its Oregon Coast Aquarium, Rogue Brewery, and dozens of restaurants and antique stores. To the south, charming Yachats is home of the jaw-dropping Cape Perpetua Scenic Area, and a bit further lies Florence and its quirky Sea Lion Caves. This cozy riverfront cottage in Waldport is truly the ideal location for a family who wants to explore all the attractions of the central Oregon Coast, but have a peaceful and very comfortable place to call home at the end of each busy day!

Beautifully located and remodeled home, right on the river. All the amenities you could want or need are provided, great book selection. Neat little boat house with a deck area to sit and watch elk across the river or Great Blue Herons searching out dinner, soaring bald eagles and too many birds to name. Nice to be able to take the dog along and watch the river from the comfort of the deck.

I can"t stress enough the enjoyment my husband and I experienced staying at the Vacasa rental home in Waldport Or. The house was very nice,clean, and very comfortable. It was close to town and close to many things that might peak your interest. We had a wonderful time there and I would highly recommend it to anyone. I enjoyed it so much that on my next vacation I plan on a return visit. It was a perfect getaway!!

We had a wonderful stay at this home last summer: missed writing the review back then. Watching the river flowing by from the bedroom and living room was so uplifting! The home itself is charming. Waldport is a quaint little town with a nice beach, and there is plenty to see and do visiting the nearby towns.

Highly recommended vacation home.

Manager Response: Thank you for providing a review even long after your stay! We agree this home is a favorite for relaxation and reflection. We hope you can return soon!

We have 2 Golden's and require a location that allows for long daily walks. The beach is 4 miles and National Forest access is about the same. It doesn't get much better.

Waldport is a small coastal town, not busy like Newport or Florence. We didn't come to the coast to see cars and people, if that's what you're looking for, don't stay in Waldport.

Internet access is available at the Waldport Library and Rays Market is a great grocery store. The library offers a 30 day membership for $5, check out movies, newspapers, etc. They do have at least 6 computers, no membership required and WiFi is available 24/7, just park outside.

My wife and I had a very nice weekend stay and enjoyed crabbing off the dock. My wife caught over 100 crab, but only 1 of them was big enough to eat. It was tasty though! The cabin is clean and comfortable and we had a very relaxing weekend.

This house is very tastefully decorated and it's obvious the homeowners have taken a lot of pride in their home. A couple very small maintenance issues, but they were easily fixed. The dock on the Alsea is in an excellent location and the fishing and crabbing was excellent. Very peaceful and relaxing. The posting needs to be updated though since there is no longer a trundle in the spare bedroom. (one kiddo slept on the bed and the other one slept on the couch instead)

The house is Beautiful. We were able to bring our Bull Dog which is always a plus. The carpet is off white, Keep that in mind.
They have a large Kennel set up in the laundry room with toys. Private back yard to play in.
No Construction across the river so it was even more quite. The view was amazing and peaceful. We even ate dinner on the back deck with out getting eaten our selves.
Birds were chirping, didn't see many of them. We will try to bring some Bird Feeders next time to encourage them to come so we can take pictures.
They even had Shampoo and Conditioner in both the showers. The good stuff too.
This place is well stocked.
No internet was a jolt, but, not a big one.
I like to bake and we didn't have any baking dishes, this was the only bad thing I could find about the house and our visit.
Well, except for the neighbor with the yappy little dog. That thing had lots to say at early or late times in the day.
Over all we will be back. We may even bring the rest of the family and do more fishing. Having a private dock is so so nice when you like to fish.

Manager Response: Thank you for this thoughtful feedback! We'll get some more baking supplies in there for your next stay!

From June 7 to the 11 I had a wonderful visit to Waldport where I met and visited with my nephew from Ontario, Oregon. We visited the Aquarium, went to the beach and return to our nice rental. Since my significant other and I enjoy Antiquing we went to Florence on two consecutive days, a trip that could have been accomplished in one, if we had known that everything closes at 5 p.m., even on Friday and Saturday night. We had several excellent dinners in the area, and of course we ate fish. Once we hit Oregon and got on the coastal route, entering and departing, the scenery was beautiful and calming. If we had more time we would have enjoyed just driving up and down the coast.
This was a lovely experience that we are sharing with all. For our next visit a directory of Antique shops within a 40 mile radius would be nice.
Thank you so much.

This place is fabulous and conveniently located, even pet friendly with a great area in the laundry room for them. A super little wood stove (however wood not provided. The only drawback is no internet access.

The riverfront escape provided us with a very pleasant holiday. I wish we could have stayed longer. The house was comfortable and clean and all of the furnishings were very nice. We were pleasantly surprised to find cable TV even though the web description said it didn't have it. That allowed us to enjoy Monday Night Football in the comfort of the house. We were also able to enjoy the patio overlooking the river and try our hand at fishing down on the dock, though I would say it was slightly nerve-racking to walk down the slightly wobbly ramp. The house seemed to have everything necessary though I forgot my hairdryer so it would've been nice to have that in the house. Overall, it was a great stay. I would recommend it to others and if we found our way back down in that area I wouldn't hesitate to stay there again.
