About this property

"Surfrider" Beach House On the Sand! 3 Bdrm, Sleeps 7 & Dog friendly -MCA#381

If you are visiting a beach town, then stay where you can dig your toes in the sand off the back deck! Explore sand dunes, walk along miles of beach, enjoy peaceful sunsets, or head into town along a paved walking/biking path. Also hang out in the fenced courtyard with 6 Adirondack chairs, fire pit and a rustic she-shed. An outside shower is located here too for washing off sandy feet.
Everything is easy access - beginning with a flat driveway and paved pathway to the front door. No worries about lugging luggage or supplies up long flights of stairs.
In warmer weather, simply settle into the 4 adirondack chairs on the back deck or step directly on to the sand with the kids to start playing with the sand toys!
If the weather is better for indoor play, big windows across the dining and great room let in the light and the sunsets while you relax on a comfy leather sectional and cozy up to a real wood fire in the fireplace. Flat screen tv, cable and free Netflix are at the ready.
The kitchen has newer appliances and is large enough to accommodate more than one cook. The large counter and barstools allow others to hang out and talk to the cooks. A generous round dining table welcomes family and friends to gather for meals and to play games.
When you are ready for sleep, the primary bedroom (KING bed and 2nd flatscreen tv) connects to the main bathroom. The second bedroom has a queen bed. The third bedroom has a queen bed and another separate daybed/couch which is a twin bed (the house sleeps 7 people). The second bathroom, with a stall shower, has a door accessing the outside courtyard for easy clean up of sandy kids. That bathroom also houses a convenient stacked washer and dryer.
The former garage has been turned into a she-shed with French doors to the courtyard, an outside dining table, as well as a whimsical couch for relaxing while you grill on the charcoal BBQ.
Just a few blocks away (easy walking distance) is the charming downtown Manzanita with unique gift shops, a spa, the classic Sand Dune pub, trendy wine bar, convenient grocery store, and several good restaurants. A flat, paved walking and biking lane leads from the house directly to town. The local golf course is around the corner.
If you are a dog lover, you'll appreciate the dog friendly atmosphere of Manzanita and your well-behaved dog is welcome at the beach house too.
FOR SECURITY PURPOSES ONLY: A Blink doorbell is located on the front porch and can see the front door. A second security camera is located at the front of the house and can view the driveway.

Surfrider was a lovely experience. The bedrooms were quite comfortable and everyone found their bed to be delightful. The main room was comfortable and made it easy to gather with friends. The kitchen / dining area was also spacious and accommodating. Most importantly, beach access and views were fantastic!

Great Vacation Home

We really enjoyed our stay at the surfrider! The home was clean, the kitchen was fully stocked with all necessary cooking needs and the check in was easy. We felt at home at the Surf Rider. The short walk to the ocean front was super easy! Would definitly stay again!

We highly recommend staying at this house. Heads up that it has a charcoal barbecue so you will need charcoal and lighter as it is not provided. Also there is no wood for the fireplace provided either.

Nice quiet location, ADA accessible, with limited steps. Very clean and comfortable beds. Big TV that takes up most of the beach view window, so if you want to watch movies or sports you will be very happy! Extremely comfortable furniture.

Great House and Location

Perfect beach house! Great for a small gathering of friends and family, located close to the heart of Manzanita. Right on the beach and a short 1/3 Mile walk to town. House has almost everything you need and comforts galore. We wish we would have brought or bought firewood for the fireplace. We hated to leave!

An absolute treasure of a beach house!

I can’t emphasize enough how wonderful this beach house is! It is by far the most comfortable we have been while staying on the coast. The beds are comfortable. The sectional couch and chairs are fantastic as well. The kitchen is well stocked with pots and pans, spices etc. The house is clean and decorated very nicely. You also can’t beat staying right on the sand. The views of the sunset were perfection. We will definitely be back again!

Absolutely the best

Once you spend a few days in Manzanita, you realize that some very lucky people live in houses right on the beach. Not a block away. Not across the street. ON THE BEACH. This is the perfect rental home in every practical way. And. It's right on the beach. Large, spacious and comfortable. Exactly as advertised.

Nice experience

The propertv and photos were exactly as described. It was decorated so nicely and had very nice appliances. Kitchen had everything you would need. We used the wood burning fireplace and it was so nice to have. It was pet friendly but you would never really know pets were inside the home. The beach was just a short walk away and easy to get to. We have only positive comments about this home - stay could not have been better. Stores and restaurants were within a two minute drive, although they would be an easy walk to get to. Internet worked great. We would return, thank you!

Very nice

Everything was great except the shower in the master bathroom didn’t work so we had 1 working shower for 4 adults and the lights on the rear deck, which is facing the ocean, didn’t work either. Would’ve spent some evenings having drinks on the deck if the lights were working. Not the end of the world but for the price I feel like these things should’ve been working.

About the host

Hosted by Julie Dunn

Host profile image
As native Oregonians, we enjoyed this family beach house while we raised 5 kids in the Portland area. We spent many weekends here all year round and now that the kids are grown, we've opened this home for others to enjoy. My father lived at the coast growing up, so this part of Oregon will always be special to our family.

Why they chose this property

We believe Manzanita is the best beach town on the Oregon Coast. There is no highway (or train track) going through it, which allows for a very walkable and quiet spot for shops and restaurants. It has maintained it's charm while attracting unique gift and art shops, and great dining. There is great hiking, local parks and a golf course.

What makes this property unique

We fell in love with this property over 20 years ago because it is ON THE BEACH. We can literally take one step off the deck and play in the sand.
The public beach access is just a couple of homes away, so easy for us, yet doesn't allow for people to be wandering by the windows.
