About this property

KNOT VERY LODGE, Oceanfront Home, Rockaway Beach, OR.

Knot Very Lodge is a well kept, cozy oceanfront home. It has spectacular views of the ocean, and beach, from the living room, kitchen and dining areas.
While we do not have air conditioning our home is well ventilated...The climate is mild, so an a/c is not needed.
Knot Very Lodge offers 2 bedrooms which can accommodate up to 4 people comfortably. We have a queen in the Master, a Double in the 2nd bedroom. There is a Double Bunk in the bonus room. Great for kids.
The home is oceanfront which offers 30 x 12' ocean facing deck with chairs and large picnic/dining table.
There is a path just off the deck that leads you to the rock steps to the beach.
Rockaway Beach offers 7 miles of arguably, the best beach in Oregon. It's the best in our opinion, but then we're a little biased. It's perfect for anything beach fun can offer, from walking/beach combing, running, flying kites, tossing Frisbee's or Beachcombing.
KVL is located just a mile north of Rockaway Beach city center and across Hwy. 101 from Lake Lytle, where you can fish for stocked trout from the fishing dock.
KVL is located just 12 mile south of Manzanita, 30 miles south of Cannon Beach and only 16 miles north of Tillamook and the Tillamook Cheese Factory.
KVL is well equipped, as it is our home away from home. The kitchen is well stocked with utensils, pots and pans, glassware, etc.
It has an oven, a microwave, a toaster, two coffee makers with one being a Keurig. It has a small dishwasher.
Most of our customers are repeat customers but we thought we would list it with VRBO to build our clientele base. We think you will find it to be a well cared for, cozy and clean and very relaxing home to spend time in.
The living room has TV with Cable TV and a DVD Player.

It is also dog friendly for a well behaved, house broken, dog.

Please review the attached photos. As the front of the house is unassuming you'll find the magic once you enter and see the phenominal views of the Pacific through the 4 large ocean facing window,

We look forward to hearing from you.

The location cannot be beat! The vintage interior has charm and oozes a history of decades of joy. Contact with the host was consistently punctual. Although the Fall days were cool, it did not discourage us from long walks on the beach. Enjoyed the fire pit too. A great experience!

Can't beat the location

My husband and I recently stayed here for a long weekend to celebrate our wedding anniversary. The pictures of the view truly do not do it justice. It was really incredible to enjoy sunrises to sunsets on the spacious deck, and to be just steps from the beach. We really enjoyed our time here. Inside, the property was clean and well equipped with everything we needed. I would absolutely stay here again.

Large windows looking out on Rockaway Beach. Deck is a great place to sit and enjoy the beach and water. Great place for a couple or small group. The hosts, owners, are outstanding and are happy to help you with about anything. We will try to get back someday!!

Always happy here!

I love being able to stay here with my well behaved dog every summer for a bit of regrouping and peace. It means so much to me! Dan is the best host you’ll ever find, so patient and accommodating! Wonderful open layout and gorgeous view but what tops it all off are the pics of his family and the homeliness of their home. I’m not one for the slick newly remodeled professionally managed places at all…so Knot Very is just my speed 🙂. Thank you, Dan, for offering a “real” vacation rental!

Great beach getaway

The house was perfect for a Girl’s Getaway. The location is amazing. We loved the outdoor space, including the fire pit and large deck, all of which looked out on the ocean. The house had everything we needed and some fun extras. The turntable with 70’s era records was a hit! Beds were very comfortable and there were lots of extra blankets and pillows. The kitchen had everything we needed. Communication with Dan was great and very timely. 5 stars all around

Beautiful location!

The location of this property is stunning. It's definitely an older cabin that could use some updating but it feels like staying in the family cabin and the combination of price and location can't be beat! Loved falling asleep to the waves at night. 3rd bedroom is a curtained off area in the extension/garage but it is nicely finished and has heat. Well-stocked kitchen, and the cable TV, streaming services, and wifi we're appreciated! Access to the beach is right beside the cabin but somewhat rocky so we used the access at the hotel just north of the cabin. Eat at Pronto Pup if you like a good corn dog!

Dan is everything you hope for in host. A great communicator and quick to respond to all my questions. This place is absolutely wonderful, the solitude, the ocean views and sunsets, the location just can’t be beat. It was very clean and quiet. The kitchen was extremely well stocked; anything that you could possibly need was there. Both the master and spare beds were very comfortable. Fantastic walks on the beach with our dog. Just a great week for us and our dog. We highly recommend Dan’s place. We will be back!

Reserve this house immediately!!

Dan’s house is THE best. Immediately upon entering, you feel like you are in a family home. It is welcoming, charming, warm and well equipped. It has everything that you need, and things you didn’t even think about (kites, beach mats, cooking utensils, etc.). Once you enter, you are instantly happy. We have stayed at Rockaway many times, but have never had a home like this with the unobstructed ocean view, and you have to walk down just a few rocks and the beach is right there. Plenty of outdoor seating, a grill, table and fire pit, you can’t beat it. The house was super clean, and Dan was amazing and very responsive when we had some questions. Dan’s place makes my whole family happy, life is better at the beach in this home!

Magical location

“On the beach” was exactly the location I wanted. Looking out the floor to ceiling windows was the ocean! I sat for hours on the deck taking in the view. So peaceful. Great house for a long weekend. We will be back!
Perfect place for morning coffee.
Great location.

So relaxing and perfectly suited for us!

Third stay in as many years. So comfortable and well-equipped. Fresh seafood just down the road. Quiet beach with few visitors; no tide pools but they are not far away. Host is easy to access and responsive. Absolutely beautiful, unobstructed view of the Pacific. Twin Rocks right there. We feel like we’re getting away with something when staying here! Thank you for sharing this special place!

About the host

Hosted by Dan Mailey

Host profile image
We grew up in Tacoma, Wa. We moved to the Portland area in 1979 and being an ocean lover, we spent many weekends at the North Oregon coast, fishing, beachcombing, hiking, etc. In 1990 we bought Knot Very Lodge from the gentleman who built the home in 1977. We absolutely love our home away from home, and really enjoy sharing it with others looking for a great beach/coastal getaway.
Most of our customers are repeat customers who have found KVL to be a very cozy, and comfortable "cabin."
We have just listed it on VRBO as of January 2019, to broaden our reach. As you will see, the summer months are already filling up but there are plenty of open dates this Spring and next Fall / Winter.
We hope you will give us a try, as we're quite sure you will have a very enjoyable stay at Knot Very Lodge.
It sits right on the beach with a pathway to the beach, just off the Oceanside deck.
Thanks for your consideration and we hope to hear from you.
Please call with any questions you may have about KVL or the area in general.
Thanks again,
Dan and Bonnie

Our home is located 9 blocks north of the City Center, and our home being oceanfront, sits literally on the edge of the Pacific Coast.

What makes this property unique

Incredible views of the mighty Pacific awaits your arrival!
