Surf's Edge

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

This upscale townhouse in Rockaway Beach is just a few steps from the beach, is dog-friendly, and has space for a large group of 10 people!

Located right next to the sand and easily walkable to a few restaurants and cafes in town, this house is a great place to take a beach-focused vacation spend exploring the coastline, building sandcastles, flying kites, and watching the majestic ocean. Within Rockaway Beach you will find eateries and small shops, and you could easily drive 20 minutes to Tillamook to visit its famous cheese factory and larger variety of shops and restaurants.

With two bedrooms (one has a king and a twin-over-twin bunk, and the second has a queen and a full-over-full bunk), a futon, and a sofabed, up to 10 guests will stay comfortably in this lovely home. You are welcome to bring your small and medium dogs with you (under 40 pounds, please), though a nightly fee does apply.

You and your guests will love sitting in the large living room, staring out at the ocean, gazing at the cozy wood fireplace, or watching cable TV or DVDs together. A full kitchen has all the tools you may need to cook up meals during your stay, which you can enjoy at the dining room table, breakfast bar, or even outside on the patio!

With Internet access and a laundry area, you will have all the comforts of home here. Head outside to the patio to find a gas grill and seating where you can relax and watch the sun set over the horizon, or strike up a game of Ping-Pong in the garage.

This comfortable home is a fantastic place to bring your family or friends to enjoy a beach getaway together. Rockaway Beach is not a large coastal town, but it has no shortage of charm. If you want to visit a larger coastal city, drive north about 45 minutes to reach Seaside, or south just 20 minutes to Tillamook.

Enjoy a truly beachfront location when you stay at this welcoming and comfortable vacation home in lovely Rockaway Beach!

Great stay but…

It was a great stay, but our comforter and linens were dirty. :( The comforter smelled dirty and our linens had stains. Thank goodness for DG we went to purchase laundry detergent. The master bedroom definitely needs a new bed frame. The one it has is really squeaky and the mattress is lumpy, but overall the house has a beautiful view to the ocean. I still can’t figure out why there’s ALOT of stuffed animals in all rooms and living room. We will definitely visit again and hopefully the master bedroom has a more comfortable mattress.

Dog friendly and clean unit

We had a relaxing week, weather was gorgeous, seafood everywhere and at least once a day. We were disappointed the train operated on the weekends only and we were not there. We dis have to walk our dogs every few hours because there is no fenced dogfie rwlief yard.

Surf’s Edge

We enjoyed our stay at Surf’s Edge in Rockaway Beach. Mostly the home met or exceeded our expectations. However, there are some areas that could be improved. Access to beach could be improved by trimming back the shrubs lining the path. One of the steps was very high and is difficult for children and the elderly. A hand rail would be a welcome improvement. The window blinds are mounted 7/8 way up the window. This leaves an opening at the top each window allowing sunlight to fill the rooms early in the morning. Please consider re-mounting the blinds at the top of the windows (especially in the bedrooms). The rear door at the back of the home is installed incorrectly with the hinges on the outside of the home. Anyone with a screwdriver can simply remove the hinges and access the home. Considering the rental fees, one would expect the home to be supplied with facial tissue (Kleenex), as well as something better than commercial grade single ply toilet paper (cheap, cheap, cheap!). The digital lock on the front door was convenient the FIRST time. Please provide a physical key to make exiting / entering the home easier. As the home is pet friendly, some small grassy area off the front or back door would have been nice. Overall the home was clean, but I think the windows have not been cleaned in a long time. Cobwebs can be found behind the blinds and most of the windows were hazy.

Beautiful home

This is the third time we have stayed at this property. We keep coming back because of its beautiful location right on the ocean and the wonderful condition the property is kept in. If you're looking for a wonderful beach front property located in a small seaside town on the Oregon coast then this is it. We will be back again.

Great to be on the beach but the house left something to be desired

Upon arrival it was very noticeable that the pictures in the listing were taken quite some time ago. The house is not as pictured, it is worn and appeared dingey. The floors were sticky and not totally clean, the baseboards and windowsills were disgusting and the house had a wierd not clean smell to it. I made the property manager aware and they got me in contact with the cleaning manager. When i discussed what i felt was unclean she informed me that those were deep cleaning items and that they were not scheduled to deep clean until the end of the month. While she offered to send someone back to the house there was no reason if she wouldnt be taking care of the deep cleaning issues. I was also informed that rhe owner specified what was being used to clean the floors and she said she would inform him that it leaves a tacky/sticky film. I dont believe that vacuuming baseboards and windowsills and washing doors or walls where there are obvious stains/messes should be a deep clean but if it is then i believe the owner should be getting those services. The location was what was the winner, it was amazing to be on the beach and be able to sit outside and listen and watch the waves. If the cleaning could be upgraded this would be an amazing stay. Well that and new mattresses or toppers or something. Beds were like sleeping on cement.

Perfect for families

We absolutely loved this home! Out of the 10 places we’ve stayed on the coast this has been our favorite. We had two families each with small children so having the bunk beds in the bedrooms was perfect. Each room also had its own bathroom with a bathtub. We also noticed that sound really doesn’t carry at all in the house. Which was great because kids get noisy 😅 The location of this home is perfect! Literally right on the beach. It made it super easy to spend each day of our trip on the beach. The huge windows gave us a perfect view of the sunset. It was also really nice being able to walk to the Beach Bakeshop and other spots. The home was clean and the kitchen was big and well stocked with everything we needed. There was also plenty of seating for everyone for meals which is a huge plus for us. The living room was spacious and comfy. One of our favorite amenities were the huge beach towels they had available for us! We loved this home and hope to rebook soon!

Gross and unsanitary carpet and incompetent and unresponsive local Vacasa management

When we first checked in I saw that the carpet on the stairs and upstairs was gross and covered with many animal excrement stains. I immediately contacted Vacasa and asked for someone to come and promptly clean the carpet.Despite promises to do it twice, they never came. I was there for a 10 day stay, so they had plenty of time. After a week when it was clear they would not be coming to clean the carpet I asked for a $50/day refund for having to pay full price to live with gross disgusting carpet including in the master bedroom. Once again, despite multiple promises that the Vacasa person would talk with local management and get back to me they never did. This was on top of the property not being cleaned and ready to move in on our day of arrival until 6 pm even when a 4 pm check in was promised. Plus, the unit is long in the tooth and needs multiple repairs and updating. Cleaning the thick dust off of the fake plants, the oven and the inside of the kitchen cabinets and getting rid of the innumerable old nik naks would also be good. As would having folding beach chairs. Since when do you rent a beach house without beach chairs etc. Sadly, this place could be great. The location is fantastic. And hanging out in the family/dining room with the ocean views is great. But the place is not healthy or comfortable to live in with the gross carpet. And Vacasa couldn’t manage their way out of a paper bag. I rent a lot of vacation rentals. This was my worst experience by far.

Amazing spot for a family vacation!

We loved this house! The “steps” to the beach can be a little deep in some spots so we found a good walking stick to help my mother who has bad knees. The appliances were great, the home was clean, there were a few things I didn’t love but we would visit again!

Beautiful home right on the beach!

We loved our stay in Rockaway Beach! The location is perfect - so great to be steps from the sand, and with incredible views from the back patio and primary bedroom. The home was very clean and comfortable. It was super helpful to be able to use the garage to store bikes and gear. Great restaurants, coffee shop, and market within walking distance. Thank you so much, we’ll be back!

Beautiful beach view

The view is incredible. We really enjoyed watching the sunset from the back porch. The wood burning fireplace added a cozy touch. The amenities were good. I will say the bed was not very comfortable. We also couldn’t get the oven to work. Unfortunately we had to cut our stay short and the Vacasa rep was short with us via text. Rockaway beach is a great place to go for a secluded getaway. Tillamook is right down the road for all your cheese needs. Overall, we enjoyed charcuterie with beach views but will likely look for a different destination next time.
