Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We enjoyed our stay at The Turtle's Nest very much. We came in late on our arrival date, and the owners stayed up to make sure we made in into the house OK, which I thought was nice. It has great views, is nice and quiet, and the town was lovely.

Wonderful get away

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This place is so cute. It is not on the beach but you can see it through the other homes across the street. There is a rocky hill that you can use to get down to the beach and they have walking sticks. I do believe there is probably another better path to beach but we were ok using the path we found. No actual stove but a hot plate and a counter top convection oven. It met our needs just fine. It was very quiet at night. The only other thing I wished for was a TV in the bedroom as we like to watch tv in our room before sleep. The other houses are right there but no one bothered anyone. It was very clean and delightful. PS only 2 chairs in backyard to sit on (we did have 3 people. There is a trundle bed in the bedroom. A love seat and 2 hard rocking chairs in living room. A recliner would have been nice but that's personal opinion. This place is adorable as the pics. We will definitely be back.

Perfect location! Wonderful decor

My family of 4+dog (2 kiddos - 2.5 & 7.5) stayed for 6 days and this was a perfect getaway spot. A short walk to a beautiful, uncrowded beach was the highlight (we walked down almost every day, often to watch the sunset). The location was great for checking out the other beaches along the coast (south to Cape Perpetua, Strawberry Hill, Bob's Creek, etc.; North to Seal Rock, Otter Rock, Moola, etc.), and not too far from Newport for some touristy things. We were able to make most of our meals, including a couple of 12" pizzas, in the good-sized kitchen. Plenty of tools/utensils, pots, pans, dishes, and the mini oven & stovetop worked perfectly. Comfortable beds, living area, and dining area, with really pleasant decor. Lots of flowers, cute statues, and a nice enclosed outdoor space, as well as a picnic table outside. A gem of a place, and one that we would love to come visit again!

Great Location. Needs Some Work

First the good things: Very cute house, clean, pleasant, great location. The beds are moderately comfortable and the decor was very pleasant. The location is central to Newport and Florence. You can see the beach across the street, but the path down is tricky. The neighborhood is very quiet. The things that need work: When we first arrived we noticed no WiFi. Called the property manager who said she would have the owner reset it. Well, that never worked and nobody ever followed up on it. So, that means there is NOT smart TV, or satellite because neither work without internet. There are 11 antenna channels and you have to use your cell data. Since we were here to relax we let that go. Just renter beware! The kitchen setup is a little awkward. The writing on the hotplate is worn off so you have to guess what the temperature is and which way to turn the knobs. The can opener didn't work at all. The convection oven was too small for Papa Murphy's. We made things work, but I think it could be a little better. Last thing, it would be better if they closed the 2 gaps in the fence in the backyard so that it was easier to let your dogs out for potty at night. It's too easy for them to head to the neighbors house without having to keep pointing them back to their yard. That's just a wishlist tip as a dog owner though. As I said, it's a cute house with comfortable furnishings, but it could be better with a little more effort from the property manager.

Waldport

This property was good, it was clean, (try not to forget to wash the wine glasses next time though), it was located in a nice neighborhood. A few blocks away from the main town and 30 minutes away from Yachats. The description of the house was not totally accurate, it said something along the lines of, "private walkthrough to the beach", well it was not. By the time we found it, its surrounded by other houses. That's not private. We also were not expecting the house to be juiced by a door to the main house. We could hear every squeak done in the other house. It was an interesting experience. Aside from all that. I would rent this property again.

Turtles Nest - A wonderful vacation cottage

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The cottage is adorable. The owners, Maggie and Charlie, decorated for Christmas for us. What delightful people and lovely hosts. We were blessed to get acquainted with them. We stayed at Turtles Nest nearly a month while waiting for our home we purchased to close. The cottage is so well decorated and the kitchen is well equipped. It is super cozy and we enjoyed our stay so much. They accommodated our doggies and the beach is just a short walk away so they couldn't have been happier, too. We highly recommend staying at Turtles Nest.

This is a great central location for all your coastal activities with easy access to local businesses and to the beach. If you are here to catch crab, be sure to have them cooked in town or plan on cooking them outside. Just let the management company know and they will make sure to have the equipment you need. The owners are very accommodating and want to ensure that your stay is a momentous one.
