Listed on the national registry of historic buildings, this vacation home is full of charm and character and offers guests a one of a kind experience. Enjoy gorgeous views of the river and the ocean as you build special memories with friends and family. The Bandon Historic River House has been a special gathering place for many over the years offering a perfect venue for weddings, reunions and whatever special event you might be celebrating.

Located on the Coquille River and in Old Town Bandon, you can easily stroll to the many shops, galleries and restaurants Old Town has to offer. Or you can walk west to the South Jetty and explore miles of amazing beaches. Common wildlife sightings right from the River House include many species of seabirds, eagles, seal lions, seals and even whales, which have been spotted exploring up the river. At the nearby harbor you might enjoy crabbing and fishing. The area has lots of hiking trails and several golf courses, including those at the Bandon Dunes Golf Resort.

The kitchen, dining and living rooms are all located on the main floor to provide easy access for most! A fully stocked kitchen welcomes cooks of all levels. The large dining area flows into the living room providing a great community space. The backyard is a fun place to gather and take in the beautiful sites of the Coquille River.

The yellow room, which has its own exterior entrance, is located on the main floor and has a queen bed and a double futon. The gray room, which boasts amazing views of the river, is also located on the main floor and has a double bed and a futon. These rooms share the main floor bathroom.

The upper level of the river house has three adjoining bedrooms and two full bathrooms. The king room, at the top of the stairs, has an open plan and includes one king bed and one sofa sleeper, an electric fireplace, and a bathroom with a large soaker tub and shower. It has views of the river, the lighthouse and the ocean. The king room is connected to two queen rooms that also have a full bathroom on their end.

Charming and the best weekend at the coast

We loved the historic building right on the water, with a view of the lighthouse. Located right in Bandon, so all restaurants, cafes and shops were minutes away. Well equipped kitchen, and the beds and bedding was the most comfortable I've seen in a rental. So much room for all of our family, we had a delightful weekend.

Love Bandon.

My son and his friend and my brother and myself stayed there. It was so enjoyable. My brother is a photographer and got some great photos of the sunsets over the lighthouse. Beds were very comfortable and I loved the kitchen. Hope to come back again. I would give it a 5 star rating.

Great location & Large Home

This home is right next door to the Edgewater restaurant in Bandon. You can walk to everything in town which was great for us. After a long day playing golf at Bandon Dunes, it was great to be able walk to a variety of restaurants, coffee shops, and hiking trails.

Great location for a Bandon golf trip

This place comfortably slept 8 guys. It’s located right next to a great restaurant (10 steps to the right) and right on the water. House was clean and beds were comfy. It is a historical building and the lights were hard to identify switches or turn on, but we were only there to sleep and recharge.

Bandon Historic River House is a roomy, comfortable, unique house in Bandon’s Old Town. It’s an easy walk to shops, restaurants and beaches.

Great house in a great town

Came out to Bandon to play golf at Bandon Dunes and didn't want to stay in the lodge. Perfect location about 10 mins from golf courses, great small town with coffee shops, seafood eateries, pubs, etc. Just a great town that had everything we needed, plus amazing house right on the water. Would highly recommend, communication with owner was quick and he was super helpful. 10 out of 10. -AJ

Bandon Gem

Our family loved staying at this historic house. The open concept was spectacular as were the ocean views. We enjoyed watching a seal in plain view out back. It’s also next door to an A+ restaurant (Edgewater) and the port of Bandon maintenance shop on the other side of the property. Both were quiet. Being in walking distance to the downtown shops and boardwalk was also amazing and appreciated. The beds were very comfortable and the bathrooms were all newly remodeled. We loved staying here so much, that we plan to come back.

Amazing location

We loved the views and the old town feel of the building. We are a Bandon loving family and we come every fall to crab and spend time together shopping the stores and people watching. My only negative experience was the actual beds in the two lower bedrooms. They were uncomfortable, small and noisy maybe invest in high quality mattresses and better furniture you would have a wonderful investment property.

Marvelous memories

We had such a wonderful experience is this gorgeous large historic home. There was plenty of room and beds for our 6 adults and two children. The main floor is spacious, has high ceilings, bright and a wonderfully stocked kitchen for cooking. All of the rooms had great windows (some with ocean views and sitting areas) and had everything you needed. With three full baths no one had to wait. The backyard outside area was fun to use and we appreciated the outside hose to wash off Sandy feet/shoes. It’s a two min walk into historic town area with shops, fish shacks, etc. our week here was magical.

Spacious & Comfy

Wow! Love this place! Two families, with tons of room. We were able to walk a short distance to town and back throughout our entire 9 day stay. Everyone in our group wanted to do different things, and this worked out perfectly. We filled the trash pretty quickly, and Sam was quick to take care of it for us. Loved the authenticity of the years kept in the home. Very modern with old bones. This was our second time here, and will come back again. - The Graham Family

Bandon Spring Break

We were late looking for a property for Spring Break that would fit our two families. So glad! We loved staying at the River House. It is so close to Old Town where there are lots of eating options, though Coos County is still in take-out only phase of dining. But there are plenty of options to sit outside at many restaurants or along the pier. Very dog friendly (we have a Newfoundland and she was popular on our daily walks). The house is old (100+) but we were all impressed with the water pressure, the short time it took to get water warm for a shower and the space of all the rooms. The kitchen is updated and had all we needed. Loved the super nice washer and dryer (not that we needed it except to put in a load when we left). Overall we would definitely stay again. If nothing else to come back and skip rocks out back. Sam was so accommodating and easy to work with. Thank you!!
