About this property
Dog Friendly Cottage with Private Hot Tub Close to Beach and Downtown
Summary:
Ocean Shells Cottage
The Space:
Come make yourself at home at this cute and cozy three bedroom Rockaway Beach vacation cottage! Recently remodeled, this pet friendly home-away-from-home is filled with charm due to the beautiful wood-slat ceilings and wainscoting. And best of all, it's right across the street from the ocean and downtown Rockaway Beach!
On nights when you want to stay in, there's a flat screen TV on the mantle, as well as cable and a DVD player. Just pop some popcorn and settle back onto the comfy couches for a movie night or just lounge about and use the WiFi to get online.
The modern kitchen is well-stocked with stainless steel appliances and gadgets for meal preparation. Here you'll have a refrigerator, stovetop/oven, dishwasher, toaster, and even a coffee grinder. Pick up some fresh seafood while out and about and you'll be able to make a memorable vacation dinner your whole group will enjoy sitting down to. Out on the deck, there's a gas grill, giving you even more cooking options.
At night, the three bedrooms have spots for up to eight guests, with two queen beds, a king-size bed, and two twins. And in the master bedroom, you'll even have a beautiful claw-foot tub.
When you stay at the Ocean Shells Cottage, you can bring up to two dog guests as well (less than 40 pounds each and with a nightly pet fee). When you're here, you'll also have a washer and dryer for doing laundry, so don't worry about getting dirty while out exploring the Oregon Coast with your four-legged friends.
Best of all, it's just a short walk from here right down to the beach. Head to the sand to build sandcastles, fly kites, or just relax and watch the waves roll in. There's miles and miles of beach to explore, including the iconic Twin Rocks to the south - a perfect backdrop for sunset photos.
Downtown Rockaway Beach has a number of restaurants on the nights you don't feel like staying in. There's the Whale Spout for fish and chips and clam chowder, the Cow Belle Cafe for hearty breakfasts, or you can pick up a pizza at Upper Crust and bring it back to your beach house to enjoy.
This Rockaway Beach vacation rental is perfect for a family getaway or a group of friends who want to stay right near the beach! Filled with cozy furnishings and charming accents, you'll love staying at this cottage and exploring the Rockaway Beach area.

The bathroom situation is unique. The location is what·looks like a shoddy neighborhood. The property itself is nice. FYI only one shower. Loved the kites!
We had a wonderful time at this cozy but luxurious cottage by the sea! It had everything we needed for a fantastic family getaway and we hope to come back soon.
The house was very clean. Move in ready! An outside hose would have been nice to clean the outside chairs during our stay.The location was great and easy access to the beach and shops.
Everything was great about our stay except the communication with the company for the home. There were multiple times that we had requests and questions that were time sensitive and would receive no answer or not until middle of night or after the fact. There was not alot of actual emapthy portrayed or compassion with the inconveniences these brought to us from their responses. This is disheartening because we really enjoyed the home for our mother's day getaway. Even though their were a few cleanliness issues but not excessive. As well as, the nextdoor neighbor was having quire a loud screaming match indoors that i was so thankful my three children were down at the beach with their Dad. However, the communication was the biggest issue even after all that. It was completely lacking and left quite the stain on our trip. The home itself was delightful.
Overall the stay was pleasant. Great location and amenities. I do wish the lock and the back door was the same as the front, especially since the majority of the parking is in the back. Would’ve been more convenient. Lack of paper towels was minor inconvenience but otherwise, we enjoyed our stay.
The house was well equipped for a family beach vacation. The decor was so cute and really matched the charm of the property. We also loved the close proximity to town and the beach.

Very cozy
Hot tub was great, well stocked, cute decor. Perfect little escape.
We rented out the cottage for 3 nights and couldn’t have asked for a better place to stay. It was so cozy, the amenities were amazing. Super close walk to the beach! Would recommend to friends and family for sure.
