Pros: perfect location, quiet, secluded, short hike on private path to beach (short but many steps and some steep inclines), 6 bedrooms plus sleeper sofa, lots of sunlight in the house Cons: -The house is not maintained and was not properly cleaned before we arrived. We had to rewash utensils and plates as they had dried food stuck on them. -We were told the hot tub was broken and not available to use two days before our arrival and it was never fixed -There was chewed gum on the windowsill when we arrived. -The upstairs bathroom smelled of mildew. I asked for a new shower curtain liner and was told it would be delivered by housekeeping and that never happened -Kitchen: There was no functional can opener so we bought our own. Oven door does not close and beeps non stop when in use. -Screen door on back porch is broken and would come off the track -Ceiling fan not working which was a little painful during the hot sunny afternoons We have rented several times through VRBO and Meredith Lodging and we were pretty disappointed in the cleanliness and maintenance in the home. Someone is skimping on services and it shows. The fact that that hot tub was not usable was incredibly disappointing and the management offered no compensation for it. Given the price point for this house for a week long stay I would have expected better. We’ve had excellent experiences with other Meredith Lodging home rentals.

We loved this property, it was spacious, if a little worn in places and well equipped. The location was perfect, off the main road and within easy access of Newport and Depoe Bay. We ran out of barbecue gas and that was swiftly replaced. Highly recommend this property for mixed age groups like ours as each had their own areas but also had ample places to mingle.

This house was a perfect home base for our stay in Otter Rock. The check in process was smooth, there’s plenty place of space to entertain and sleep, the property is beautiful, and the walk down to the beach is stunning. We found ourselves spending more time on the property than expected because we were so comfortable and it had everything we needed for group meals. Additional highlights were: sunset walks and surfs down at the really good surf beach in Otter Rock, a seafood dinner out in Newport at Local Ocean, great space out back to hang out, and the lush forest surrounding. Highly recommend and hope to return.

I rented this house many years ago. It was great to see it had been kept up well and we enjoyed our time. Thank you!
