Heceta House and Fisherman's Cottage

Our calendar is updated in real-time & our nightly rates are accurately displayed. Simply enter your desired dates and click 'Book Now!'

The Heceta House vacation rental is a lovely and comfortable home within walking distance to Heceta Beach. The top level of this house is a 'surf shack' style room, where you can sit and read the day away and watch the ocean.

There is a wonderfully whimsical room for children with an undersea mural painted on the wall and a bunk bed in the shape of a boat. And two additional bedrooms both with queen beds. Relax in the upstairs master suite which has claw foot tub and second TV/DVD. Open the windows and let the sounds of the sea rock you to sleep.

Sit and enjoy the company of family and friends next to the fireplace, enjoy walks to the beach, or come visit the quaint shops and restaurants in Old Town Florence.

Florence draws folks from all over for its lakes, mini-golf, world renowned golf course, horse-back riding, hiking, quaint downtown, tide pools, dunes and whale watching.

The Heceta House is the perfect place to come enjoy the feel of being at the beach.

The Fisherman's Cottage is a separate studio rental on the same property that can sleep an additional 2 people with the new double bed. Soothing colors and reclaimed wood provide the perfect escape for a romantic weekend or beachside solitude. The cottage is just steps to the beach and it is equipped with TV/DVD microwave, mini-fridge and eating area.

If you are bringing a dog on your trip, the pet fee is already included in your quote when selecting ‘Yes’ to pets. If you would like to add more dogs, please contact us.

Heceta House

The birds in general but specifically the ones feeding their chicks nested in the rafters on the porch. There were nests at both ends of the porch. The big pitch is really great. It wasn’t warm when we visited but we did take hot tubs and used the large grill but couldn’t comfortably eat at the table outside. The couple in the fishermen’s cottage liked it a lot. They were the ones who could bound up the hill in the morning.

Well-Loved

This home has been well loved and has an ocean charm. Overall it was a great location and super easy walk to the beach. Make sure you bring spices for cooking. We bought a griddle to make pancakes and left it for the next visitors to enjoy. The price accurately reflects the property.

By the Beach

Rustic coastal home with some special features. Location short walk to beach, front deck a great place to sip some coffee and enjoy sunrise, wraps to side deck with hot water tap for the outside shower made cleaning off the sand easy. And the hot tub is a great place to relax with the coastal trees acting as wind block and privacy. Was fun place to stay of my group.

Nostalgia and Family

We've been talking about renting this place for a long time. The boyfriend has quite the heartfelt history with this house and the family that owns it. It was very nostalgic for him to be there, be able to fix a couple things, and show his son the stories behind all the art, the wood floor, and little items around the house/property. We wish we could have stayed longer and plan to be back soon. Thank you SB and MB!!! All our gratitude and love!!

Great house, fun town!

The reason I decided on this house was for the cottage, so my adult kids could have their own space and privacy. I know that things can happen and the water damage was unfortunate but I do feel I should have been given a discount since it was not available and didn't get notice until days before our arrival. That being said we did have plenty of room in the house. The house was super fun to explore, we had all the items we needed, and it was a great location. The hot tub was the highlight of the family. Thank you!

Location was great. Short walk to the beach. Florence has plenty for vacationers to do. I liked having a big home and cottage that was dog friendly. The house is older and needs updating and a deep clean. Beds and linens were fine. The cottage is a converted garage and you can see sit space through the ceiling and door boards. Only one access with 3 small windows. No secondary escape that I could see in case of fire. Bathroom is small with a shower stall and no venting. Smelled damp and moldy in the bathroom. Again, needs a deep clean but bed and linens were fine. Jacuzzi was not working while we were there. Management worked with us and gave us a credit for that. Overall nice location, just needs thorough clean and something done with the bathroom in the cottage. We had dirty floors, dead flies, old pretzels around the home, stains where there was carpeting (possibly pet pee that was not shampooed), lots of dusty areas and cobwebs.

Bring your eyeshades

We have stayed in many VRBO and this one did not meet our expectations. It is managed by a company and had no homey touches you usually find. Plus no instructions about appliances, garbage, amenities. More than half the windows do not have shades or curtains. Lots of hooks on the walls for clothes but not a lot of closet space. The hot tub was nice, the beds were comfortable and lots of hot water for the shower. Kitchen has just the basics. The place has the feel of grandma’s outdated lake house. I would not recommend a friend stay here. Next time I’ll make sure I’m booking through the owner and not a management company.

Unfortunately

Needs a deep scrub down , came in to dirty floors and carpet we vacuumed before using a lot of debri under all couches and tables sent pictures of doors and such with grim around the door handles and vanity upstairs had stuff on front . Heavy fragrance on all linens we washed a few times before using and still potent . House was very cold we found space heaters to heat it up there needs to be communication on heat prior maybe a guest handbook . And Wednesday we had no water it was a scheduled shut off of 8am -7pm according to city it should not of been rented out . Very disappointed with that type of inconvenience. The house is charming if cleaned and heated properly we would definitely come back but as of now we will scratch this home off the list . Fridge is in poor state as well .

Misadvertised

We were so disappointed in this property! We joined with friends and had two families of four at this house for four days, and our first complaint is the advertised number this house sleeps. There is no way this sleeps eight. At best it sleeps six. The other two would have to squeeze on a very old couch sofa. We were so glad we brought an air mattress, just in case. Additionally, the rooms did not have privacy. The loft makes the wall into the bedrooms open, and the stair case goes right through the upper room. There was also only one shower for 8 people. When we arrived, the hot tub was so dirty. We complained, and when they cleaned it, they did not add treatment to it; it was just clear water. By the fourth day, it was not usable again, and it wasn't usable the first day. Finally, I was very annoyed at the "fully stocked kitchen," which it was not. It would have been an upgrade if they furnished from the Dollar Store. The amenities ranged from plastic Halloween glasses (and it was July) to a rusty can opener. There was barely enough combined for a setting for 8. From the smell to the lack of privacy to the lack of basic furnishings and uncomfortable, not private, accommodations, we were so disappointed. I would not recommend this property.

not a great experience

after booking all of my confirmation information came through vacasa instead of vrbo. we made several attempts at contacting and resolving the issue. the night of check in we were told by a representative from vacasa that the local team would reach out to us to resolve the issue. we never received a phone call or any kind of contact from them again. the following day we started off contacting vacasa again. we spent about two hours on the phone with them and by the end of the phone call we got hung up on by their representative. after the second phone call with vacasa we decided to call vrbo. they tried to be much more helpful but again told us the best course of action would be through thee property management (vacasa). we spent another couple of hours on the phone with the representative from vrbo. they told us we would he contacted the following day (day 3 of 7 of our vacation) about being relocated to a different place. we were never contacted by vrbo again. we did not call them back the following day because our vacation was being consumed by phone calls getting us no where. i sent messages through both the vacasa and vrbo apps and again was not contacted again by either one. anytime that we attempted these phone calls and messages we had to leave the house to get phone service. we booked a 3 bedroom 3 bathroom vrbo and we got a 2 bedroom 2 bathroom space. we have attempted to get a partial refund simply to pay for the 3rd party of our group to pay for the hotel th

Was a cute house. Great location short walk to the beach. Upon closer inspection. I notice lots of dust and cobwebs. Needs a deep clean. Notice the fridge bottom shelf was broke. Decking near hot tub was soft needed replacing. Sand in the bottom of the hot tub. Dishwasher door is bent. Make sure your in shape to walk the little hill up to the house. A little more tlc and it wod be a 5 star

Close to beach, quiet neighborhood.

Good location in relation to the beach. Able to house all guests, but not much privacy from each other or enough sitting room in the living room. Grateful for the “cottage”, some called it a “shack”. Met our goal of spending time with loved ones at the beach.

Comfortable & close to the beach

Nice porch and hot tub, spacious kitchen/dining area, comfortable bedrooms. The house faces inland/east, so the front porch is sunny in the morning but overall the house and deck felt shady the rest of the day. To get to the beach, you walk down and around on the road itself--no sidewalks, but little traffic--to a public beach access. Close to town and groceries.

Wonderful Family Vacation Home

We found this home to be the perfect location for our family getaway. The house is rustic but perfect for families with kids and dogs. The deck is gated to keep kids and dogs safe. There was a new washer and dryer and plenty of towels and bedding. The outdoor heated shower and jacuzzi were a big hit. The kitchen was well stocked and provided all the implements that we needed. The gas barbecue was excellent. The location is just a few blocks from the ocean and very close to Fred Meyer for groceries. It was a short drive to the exploding whale park and we found that beach to be ideal for sandcastles and playing in the water with little ones. We will be back!

Spring Break

The Heceta House was a hit for our family over spring break! We found the house clean and comfortable. The hot tub was a lifesaver when it was too rainy for the beach and the fisherman’s cottage was cozy and super cool. We loved it. No complaints.
