Incredible White Water view! Gorgeous sunsets! Jacuzzi on deck/2 Flat screen TVs
Since our remodel 2.5 years ago we have a 4.8 Average review rating as of 11/20/24. Both the Master and Loft have queen beds. Warning: The loft has a steep staircase and a low ceiling. It also has a low bannister overlooking the living room so not advisable for young children. There is an easy path down to the beach which is frequently strewn with driftwood. We notice some very careful people enjoy bonfires! Wake up to waves crashing beneath you. Brew a strong cup and start your morning back in the Jacuzzi or looking out from the cozy sunroom as the sun begins to illuminate the breaking waves underneath you! Stroll the beach with your doggy, explore the tide pools or fly a kite. Got a surf board? Join a few locals just 600 ft up the beach to a hollow wave break. Keep walking the long beach across the OR border to the ever-changing Winchuck river mouth. Look for the seal pups. Your cabin is fully equipped for me the owner and I enjoy cooking and all the amenities of this sweet cabin whenever possible! It is small but amazingly efficient and comfortable to maximize your connection to the surrounding environment Remember to turn off the living room flat screen TV, at least for the magnificent sunsets. You won't regret it. Also you probably want to book enough days for exploring time nearby Brookings, the flowing rivers & of course the famous Redwoods.

Second time staying at this property. We just had to come back. House is right on the beach and the views are amazing. There are redwood forest trails close by too and a good amount of restaurants in neighboring Brookings. Can only recommend.
Our stay was fantastic, location was amazing. Loved our view of the ocean.

location is excellent. MANY problems with property - needs serious maintenance. Front stairs are DANGEROUS - slanting badly! Kitchen faucet leaks into the sink - maybe underneath? ALmost not connected to sink. Most lights/switches don't function. Door 'security' is a joke - front door swings out - so easy to remove hinge pins for entry. front door lock miminally effectived. 2 Slider doors - only one whose lock works - giant dowels as only real locking device. All livingroom furniture needs replacing - sagging couch, chair that requires 5 pillows... It was clean. Bed was fine. Just tons of annoyances!Was clean
This was a great place to spend our anniversary weekend. Quiet and gorgeous views. Had everything we needed.
Only small suggestion is to update check in info regarding parking pass etc as the office apparently has not been in operation for quite sometime :)
Although the cabin is snug, the kitchen has plenty of room and is well equipped. The host thoughtfully provides coffee, plastic wrap and other items. The expansive view overlooks the ocean and beach—-from the living room, the deck and the hot tub. A great stay for us!
This is such a great place to stay. Was very clean and the location was beautiful. The tiny house was cute and had all the amenities we needed, with the exception of a washer and dryer. If you’re looking for a place to stay on the ocean I highly recommend it.

The view was amazing!
The view was amazing and the jacuzzi was an added bonus
We needed to be in communication with the host upon arrival and he was responsive immediately by phone and text. The view from the dexk was nothing short of spectacular and the cabin cozy. As a base for the Redwoods it cant be beat.
We had such a great experience at Gary’s home. It was clean with great amenities and the location was perfect. We will definitely be coming back at some point in the future!
We absolutely loved our stay in this cozy little cabin. Amenities were thoughtful and convenient. And being right on the beach was perfect. The hot tub on the deck overlooking the beach was spectacular. Cabin was very clean and tastefully decorated. We will definitely be back for another relaxing stay in the future.
Absolutely stunning and gorgeous views of the ocean and beach. Hot tub over looks ocean and at night you can enjoy while listening to the crashing of the ocean waves and a glass of wine. Beautiful.
The property is a cozy, with a small sleeping quarters but a fairly spacious living room. But the location is amazing, with a balcony and hot tub right by and overlooking the beach.

Can’t Beat the View
Amazing location! We stayed at the cabin next door previously so actually were quite disappointed at the cabin’s condition, cleanliness, neatness, and decor. Got over it pretty quickly. If you don’t have high expectations, it’s a location you can’t beat.
Super beach experience here views and tide pools it was wonderful. The place was pretty much as described small but nice. A couple of things need to be addressed, the The wicker chair out front was pretty worn out( we didn't use it it looked like it might break) Folks should know that the shower is very narrow and small but adequate but adequate we didn't run out of hot water :) the stairs are steep up to the small loft but it was as described we would definitely stay here again.
We had the best time! The view from this cabin/hot tub/deck, in our opinion, is the best at the resort. We've stayed in other cabins and weren't as impressed. The cabin was clean and tidy, not cluttered. It had everything we needed to enjoy our stay. Coffee maker (with filters and coffee), a fan, a smart tv, a nice gas stove, a dishwasher, lots of kitchen supplies.
The hot tub was hot and ready when we got there. It was also private.
Great cabin! Great weekend getaway for our anniversary! Thanks

Disliked: Check-in
Minor problems, mostly with security, otherwise fine.
The exterior light was burned out, we took care of that. Front lock box was open when we arrived, dead bolt does not work and keys need to be cleaned up along with handle lock. Toilet seat needs to be replaced, pretty gross. Minor things but minor things can make a big difference.
This was a great location. On the water, nothing better. It was so easy to walk to the beach. Just a few small edits or maybe updating the description to make it more accurate. I think my biggest issue was there wasn’t a big effort to make the place home.
* carpets including the welcome rug were dirty. Maybe just some deep cleaning to spruce them up.
* no hair dryer which is something I really chaffe at because I would have brought my own if it had been noted
* no body soap
* no shampoo except that exceptionally cheap stuff called white rain, which I used on my body. I’m sure that stuff is highly Chemical laden, bad for my skin and bad for the earth.
Also should be noted that these units on the beach are like mobile homes. They are all right next to each other. So you can definitely see each other on the deck and in the hot tub. Not a big deal but it should be noted.
Final thing, the instructions need to be updated about stopping into the main office for a permit. Apparently they aren’t doing this anymore due to COVID.
Vacationers beware. I will start off by saying I made a booking mistake. My husband and I are both in public education and I intended to surprise our family with a trip to the coast over spring break... but I inadvertently booked the trip one week too early (when we are still in school and have parent-teacher conferences).
I began trying to remedy the mistake within minutes of making the reservation. This owner is IMPOSSIBLE to work with. He refused to respond to my messages on VRBO, my phone calls, or my text messages. After countless calls/texts and one plea from my husband, he finally responded to my husband's text (not to me, the person who made the reservation). We spent the better part of a week trying to communicate with the owner. He would NEVER answer any of MY calls or messages, and only occasionally responded to my husband. He tried to put the problem off on VRBO, saying that I needed to contact them to solve the problem (VRBO clearly stated that the issue was out of their hands) ... he even lied about my efforts to resolve the issue within the "make modifications to reservation" timeframe.
I am fully aware that this all started with a mistake I made. But please beware before booking. If you have an issue, this owner is IMPOSSIBLE to communicate with, concerned with HIS profits only, and has literally ZERO empathy or concern for anyone other than himself.
Our family is out a considerable amount of money, and he is that much richer, for doing absolutely nothing.
Darling beach cottage with stunning ocean views. Look forward to coming back

About the host
Hosted by Gary
I bought this location because I loved staying in this exact same unit. Great stuff, leather couch, down comforter, flat screen TV. WIFI. Sometimes you'll close glass doors because the waves are too loud! I live in Ashland, a gorgeous drive inland following the amazing Smith River, past the Redwoods and Cave Junction. Grew up surfing in CA and now got the best of both! Surfing, and no crowds!
Why they chose this property
It doesn't get better than this!. Few neighbors. Beach is underutilized. There have been times when the surf got so big and tide so high almost felt like we had to evacuate. If you get sea sick but love being on the water this is your place! If you like comforts of home including flat screens, Jacuzzi, internet leather sofa, but also love a bonfire, look no further. Get discounts for longer stays!
What makes this property unique
Views, views, views!!! Jacuzzi deck. Well appointed furnishings and kitchen. Private loft area. Safe off the hwy, private areas, don't have to worry about kids running into street. Send them down the private path to the beach and watch them from the deck! Good dogs probably ok but extra cleaning cost. Worth it to have a real clean stay.
