Imagine soaking in a bayfront jetted tub, gazing at the sea as sea lions bark, gulls sail overhead, and fishing boats troll into the harbor. That dream can come true with a stay at Surfer Dude, a charming upstairs studio on Newport’s busy Bayfront. A cozy gas fireplace beside the ocean-view queen bed only increases the romance. The bathroom counter is fashioned from a surfboard, reminding you that the beach is less than a mile away. Enjoy coffee, snacks, and takeout from the closet kitchenette with its microwave, coffee station, and mini-fridge.
Newport’s Historic Bayfront is right out your door, with a smorgasbord of eating options, colorful murals, and unique shops; the bustle of activity as the day’s catch comes in off the boats reminds you that this is a working marine town. Enjoy seafood from Clearwater Restaurant, Local Ocean, or Ocean Bleu Seafoods at Gino’s, or bar fare from Rogue Ales Bayfront Public House or the Barge Inn Tavern. Walk further down the Bayfront to see the marina full of fishing boats, or up the hill to enjoy learning about the area’s history in the Pacific Maritime and Heritage Center. Hop in the car, and the Yaquina Lighthouse, Oregon Coast Aquarium, Hatfield Marine Science Center, and Nye Beach are minutes away. After you catch the sunset at the beach, you’ll happily return to your cozy studio, switch on the sound machine to mute the barking of sea lions, and drift off to rejuvenating sleep for your next round of coastal exploration.
Anchor Pier Lodge has five adjoining homes, so you can invite your friends to join you at Ocean’s Edge, Bayfront History, Captain’s Quarters, or Coastal Garden!

Had a great time celebrating our 20th anniversary. We loved the location right in the middle of everything and spent a lot of time enjoying our bayfront view either on the balcony or in the jacuzzi tub. No sea lions currently due to migration, so was pretty quiet.

Hi Kassie! Thank you for your 5-star review and choosing to celebrate your 20th anniversary with us. We loved hosting you and hope you will book with us again!
This was a very fun location. You can see the sea lions, and youre smack dab in the middle of the downtown bay area. The room is cute, stylish, the bed is on the harder side, but thats ok! The pins worked smoothly, and it was a great experience.

Hi Jennifer! Thank you for your 5-star review. We are so glad you had an enjoyable and comfortable stay. We loved hosting you at Surfer Dude and hope you will book with us again!
We loved our stay in the heart of Newport bay. The rental was as described. Lovely place close to everything. The jacuzzi bath tub made our stay even more relaxing. We enjoyed be surrounded be the sites and sounds of the very active bay. The sea lions barked 24 hours a day, so this might not be the best place to stay if you’re sensitive to noise. We had a great time and loved this cozy little spot.

Steep stairs,
The stairs were to steep for us seniors to climb. The room was nicely decorated but wasn't very comfortable. This is a place for young people and should be listed as such. We cut our stay short because of these issues.

Short stay
We couldnt stay here, had to find a hotel instead. It was my fault for not researching the place more carefully, the fact that it had stairs, but it was not clear it was located in a very loud, busy tourist destination that is also a working cannery row with many LOUDLY barking sea lions. It did look clean but was very hot in the afternoon and had no air conditioning. They also neglected to give me the code to our apartment door, despite sending me MULTIPLE texts and emails, and i had to call them. Not suitable for people with a disability, as i have.

Hi Joy. We were looking forward to hosting you, and are sorry to hear your booking did not work out for you as hoped. We appreciate your feedback as we are always striving to improve on behalf of our valued guests, and would like to note that the description does state that the unit is upstairs, there are barking sea lions, and the location is in the heart of Newport ... "Surfer Dude - Anchor Pier Lodge Imagine soaking in a bayfront jetted tub gazing at the sea as sea lions bark ... a charming upstairs studio on Newport’s busy Bayfront ...

We also see that a text message was sent to the phone number on file with check-in info, and a link to the guest portal with additional information, but we are sorry if there was any confusion accessing these details. We do value your booking, and if we are lucky to host you again, recommend contacting our friendly and knowledgeable reservations team. They can help you find the perfect vacation rental to suit all of your needs, and answer all your questions about a property before booking.
From the start to the end, my visit to this property was lovely. I contacted the management company to help me enter the property. The person I spoke with was wonderful and got me into the property with ease.
Upon entering the room, I knew my stay would be great. The room was clean and the view was beautiful. (I stayed in the exact room several years ago and was pleased to say my expectations were met!)
The bed was comfortable, the jacuzzi tub, relaxing and the view of the bay was spectacular! I did not have any problems with barking sea lions as they were all gone to California for mating! (on my previous visit, they were barking, but I did not mind).
Pay attention to parking. You will have to pay for parking during the day on the street. (after 7 pm -11 am, street parking is free) There is free parking up the tiny hill by the bar across the street during the day. I would recommend, if you are not planning on using your car, to move your car before 7 am to the free lot for the day. If you do use your car, be prepared to pay a small fee for street parking.
The shops and restaurants are plentiful. I loved Clearwater and Local Ocean.
Most places are walkable, even across the bridge to the Aquarium, Hatfield, and Rouge.
I would highly recommend this property to anyone wanting a nice relaxing stay.
