About this property
Great Fall Savings!! @ Iconic & Fun Ocean house & location, Super Water Views!
Note: for larger house option (Happy Clam Plus) accommodating up to 13 guests go to vrbo.com/914857
The Happy Clam is a stylish comfortable home with walls of windows, including a two-story great room. This makes for wonderful viewing of the water, sky and historic bridge. Inspiring in any kind of weather. The location is ideal:
* sits right on the south jetty of the Yaquina River with great views of Newport bay to the ocean - pelagic birds and seals are regularly in view as are fishing boats cruising by.
* is at the epicenter of a fun neighborhood within walking distance - a serene beach, clam beds, biking, pier for crabbing, marina, Rogue Brewery, marine attractions including the fabulous Aquarium, marine science center, restaurants, shops, glass blowing, bike trails and miles of beach.
* is wonderfully comfortable for a great night's sleep, lounging, and fully equipped for fun activities including games, ping pong, pool table, foosball
* close to fun festivals and events: just several minutes walk to events at the brewery, marina/pier, aquarium, science center or fun bike rides into South Beach State Park and beyond.
4 BEDROOMS TOTAL (including small bunk bedroom)
Normally arrival/departure is 4 pm/11 am. For arrivals and bookings of groups on the same day, the arrival and departure times may change up to 5pm/10am due to housekeeping requirements for this big house.
This listing is for the MAIN HOUSE of the Happy Clam, up to 8 guests. For more space, the entire house is rentable which includes a lovely apartment on the ground floor, please go to vrbo.com/914857 for reservation.
The main part of the house centers on the second and third levels with wonderful views. There we have 3 bedrooms (1-King and 2 Queens) plus a bunk room (small room with bunk beds) and a loft area with a pull-out couch. The bedrooms all have walk-in closets and baths. There are 2HDTVs and plenty of couches and chairs. The master bedroom has a double walk-in closet with enough room for a twin mattress in one side for extra sleeping place.
The dining table seats 8 and the kitchen counter seats 3. The kitchen is stocked with dishes, pans, pots, cutlery, spices, flour, sugar.
Most groups of 7-8 who have rented the house before or more want to rent the entire house, which includes a cheery APARTMENT we open up on the ground floor. The rates are about $100 more per night. In the apartment, there is a bedroom with a queen bed, a bath, a small living room and kitchen plus another HDTV. We do not rent this separately to other groups, but it can be added to the main house. With this, The Happy Clam can handle up to 13 people. It's nice to have this space for those that are bit noisier or need more quiet time -- depending on the group.
The Happy Clam is great for smaller families and is also perfect for expanded family get-togethers, retreats, book and other clubs, reunions, birthday or other special days (including surprises) - or just plain getting away from the routine. There is no bad season to hang at the Happy Clam. It's always relaxing and never boring.
Ring doorbells with video exist outside the house for security purposes.

Frequently asked questions
About the host
Hosted by Gary Gamer
We've been coming to Newport for many years for vacations and shared a home with many other families near Nye Beach. When we found this home on South Beach we were overjoyed to find such a great house, with wonderful view and in an incredible location.
Why they chose this property
We used to climb down big cliffs to get to the beach. Now we can walk one direction on a flat road along the jetty to the beach or go the other direction to the pier and marinas and aquarium. It's truly a great spot -- always something interesting to look at. The kids love to throw crab pots off the pier or just find treasures on the beach or out in front of the house when the tide is low.
I get a kick out of watching the seals and the birds splashing and diving.

What makes this property unique
The house has lots of windows and light - so even if it's winter, there's usually good light or at least lots of weather to look at. Some of the best weather in Newport can be in January and February. The master is as large as the living room so it's like having two living spaces. There's a big screen TV in the living room and the master bedroom. We sometimes send the kids up to the master and the adults stay in the living area so it's nice to have that separation of space sometimes. Each bedroom has a walk-in closet so the clothes can be hidden from the bedroom and it's more relaxing that way. Also each of the bedrooms has a bathroom attached.
