About this property

OCEANFRONT-Shorty's Hideaway-Spend More Time At The Beach-Pet Friendly

Welcome to Shorty's Hideaway ocean front home. Just steps through the sand and dune grass to miles of pristine sandy beach. This beach house has been in the same family for all these years and has recently been remodeled with a completely new kitchen, modern appliances, new picture windows and heated floors. The open floor plan is perfect for family and friends to gather and share beach experiences or games for a little friendly competition. There is plenty of room for kids to spread out and within view while preparing meals in the fully stocked kitchen. The comfortable living room has a smart TV with a blue ray player or just hang out and watch the surf through the living and dining room view windows. Stay warm and dry snuggled in a cozy throw and observe the dramatic winter weather. There is a master bedroom with a king size bed with a smart TV and an ocean view along with a roomy master bath. A guest room and guest bath located on the other side of the living room and no stairs required because all spaces are at street level. BBQ on the east patio located out of the westerly winds or set in the sun and enjoy that novel you've been meaning to get to.

Walk south to Bob Straub Park and keep going to where the Nestucca River meets the ocean or head north towards the picturesque Cape Kiwanda and Haystack Rock. There is so much to explore along Pacific City's beautiful coastline including beach combing, whale watching and horseback riding. Bring your kayak to launch into the Nestucca River or rent one locally.

Sit on the dune behind the house and watch your kids and pets play on the beach, while the sun goes down for that spectacular sunset. Play a little, dream a little while time stands still. Reserve today and find out for yourself why nothing comes close to staying ocean front.

Pet fee is per pet, per stay. Multiple pets require multiple fees. Pets must please stay off the furniture and beds and never left alone inside the house or garage unless in a kennel. Pet limit is 2.

Super clean and cozy

Well stocked kitchen, very comfortable king bed in the primary bedroom (we didn’t try the guest bedroom bed), a short walk through the back door to the beach and a quiet and friendly neighborhood. Our dog was in heaven!

Quick trip to the coast with the family. The house was very clean and had stocked well for functional kitchen and beach play. Extra linens for the fold out coaches and towels both for showers and beach use. Very awesome location and easy access to the beach. Highly recommend.

Neighbors were a little close for my liking, but not a deal breaker. Beach had very few people on it, beautiful views from the property. House was very cute, cozy, clean and even well decorated! Bed was super comfortable!! We had a great time!!

Shorty's Hideaway is a chef's kiss of a property to enjoy the coast of Oregon. I am so grateful to have had the opportunity to stay with my bestie and her pup at such a perfect home. The house was impeccably clean, incredibly comfortable, and THE PERFECT ESCAPE. Thank you so much for everything!

Great Beach Getaway

We've stayed here a few times when coming to Pacific City and it never disappoints! The home is comfortable with enough space for my teens to spread out, and the beach is literally right out the door. We love having the dunes to explore right in front of us. It feels so private! Overall, a great rental for the beach!

Wonderful spot for a getaway

Everything about our stay was wonderful and easy. The home is so comfortable (especially the beds), cozy, and very clean. It has all of the amenities you might need and then some. The kitchen is well stocked. This might be one of first places that had usable cookware and sharp knives! We really enjoyed our three nights to celebrate Father’s Day.

Nice little place right on the beach. You do have to climb a sand dune to get down to the beach but it’s worth it.

Shorty's is a lovely spot (better than in the pictures!) in a great location (right above the beach!) and walking distance from Pacific City. The home was clean, charming, comfortable and had everything we needed – we will definitely be back.

Amazing family weekend

A few of us stayed at Shorties for the weekend. It was an amazing time right on the beach. The cabin was clean, stocked with everything we could need, in a quiet neighborhood. Katie was easy to communicate with. I appreciated using the gas grill, in house washer and dryer, newly renovated bathrooms and an amazingly stocked kitchen. Thank you for a blessed weekend Katie! God bless!

Great property and location

This is a great place to stay. Right on the beach and a very comfy house with all you need. If you want a fire in the wood stove you need to bring your own wood and kindling. Would definitely stay here again.

Nice stay. Just some minor details overlooked. The master bedroom could have used blackout shades. The primary sofa was located too far from the TV. Would have felt a little more pampered if we had a soaker tub for our weary bones. We would recommend it.
