Our calendar is updated in real-time & our nightly rates are accurately displayed. Simply enter your desired dates and click 'Book Now!'
Over the river and through the woods, Grandpa’s Lake House offers a delightful retreat on beautiful Woahink Lake. Spanning two floors of living space, this spacious home offers gorgeous lake views and plenty of entertainment for the whole family. Enjoy an air hockey table - there is even a toy bin for the little ones. On crisp evenings, get cozy by the fireplace and play one of the provided board games or head outside to take a dip in the private hot tub. Plenty of adventures are also close at hand with Oregon Dunes National Recreation Area and the charming Old Town section of Florence nearby.
Wall-to-wall windows in the main living area showcase beautiful lake views, while a wood-burning fireplace with floor-to-ceiling stone surround creates a cozy vibe. Upstairs, a family room features a sleeper sofa, 65-inch TV and an air hockey table. Bay windows offer even more superb lake views along with an inviting reading nook. The well-equipped kitchen provides a full suite of stainless steel appliances. When you’re ready to dine, you’ll find a large table for up to 10 and counter seating for two.
Overlooking the lake, the private deck has a gas grill, outdoor seating, and a table. An adjacent hot tub offers the perfect spot to enjoy relaxing views. Complimentary WiFi, a washer/dryer, a high chair, a Pack ‘n Play, a booster seat, and baby gates.

As a whole we were very disappointed with our experience at Grandpa's Lake House. It has not been kept up for years and really needs a deep cleaning (filth on hand rails, doors and walls). Here is a list of things not available to us during our stay.
No water in the hottub (described as an amenity available), back yard unmanaged and over grown, dock unstable (fall hazard) windows filthy, curtain are musty, other people did not pick up poop from their dogs nor did house keeping, coffee filter with old coffee and mold still in it from when? Clock does not work. A drawer in one bathroom and toilet paper holder fell apart, rack in dishwasher when pulled out bottom rack it leans forward and all dishes fall out of rack.rtheiththe spots.

Fantastic location with great access to the lake, wonderful hot tub, and all the amenities you need for a family weekend at the lake. Lots of board games, children’s toys (though the kids toys could use some cleaning, some were pretty dirty). The house is definitely a well lived-in older lake house, furnishings are well used, so don’t expect brand new or high luxury, but it’s perfect for a family with kids who just want comfortable beds, a great private lake access to play in, and a great hot tub to soak in at the end of a long day. We will definitely be back.

The view in the morning was majestic. The location on the lake w the private cove and soft sandy beach was great for the kids. The water wasn't too cold. The kitchen was well stocked. The beds were comfy. We plan to make this an annual event.

We were afraid the municipal coded quiet hours of 7 pm to 7 am was going to mean we couldn’t enjoy playing pickleball in the yard before the luxurious 9 pm sunset, but nobody seemed to be bothered by our games. The house is perfect. Kids loved it. We loved it. Great location.

We unfortunately had a very bad experience. We booked the house expecting a 4 bedroom house. Once we arrived we found one bedroom locked and after pulling some teeth and communication taking a long time, was told that the bedroom and a half bath were out for repairs. This was not communicated to us prior to arrival so people had to sleep on the couch. We received little to no refund for this mishap. The house itself was fairly nice but outdated and could’ve been cleaned more thorough. The garbage can outside was full, smelt awful and garbage was spilled. I appreciated being right by the lake and the house had a lot of kid supplies (toys, baths, high chairs, etc). Overall we were disappointed in our stay.

Overall, my 4 friends and I had a wonderful, relaxing stay at Grandpa's Lake House. The house was as described; it was spacious, clean and well stocked. There were memory foam mattresses on all of the beds, which was a welcome change from previous stays elsewhere. The hot tub was clean and well maintained and it was great siting out and watching the ducks on the lake.
One important thing to note, in the entryway to the left there is a step down (maybe 3 inches deep) leading to the garage and bathroom/laundry room. The only thing to alert you of step down is a thin yellow strip of tape on floor and if you don't have hall light on you can't see it. Even with the light on it's hard to tell there is a step down and every single one of us didn't realize the step was there and almost fell. On multiple occasions. I was the unfortunate one that heard a pop when I landed and spent the first 36 hours of our trip hardly able to walk, elevating and icing my foot. After that incident we put a bench in front of step with sign to watch step. Luckily nothing was broken and my friends were able to find me a boot for my foot at a thrift store so I could get around some in those first 36 hours. Note to the owner, you should put a sign at eye level warning people to watch their step and also add a thicker yellow caution tape to floor.
With that being said, this was a much needed break from our crazy busy lives and we had a wonderful, relaxing time and we will definitely be back.

We were a bit shocked upon arrival at the state of unclean. If the outdated and unclean rooms and carpets were not enough it looks like laundry does not get done. Towels, pillows, and duvets are stained, dirty, there were visable unnamed smears on the duvet. There is junk everywhere and you can guarantee things are not moved and cleaned underneath (that wood block in the kitchen? Disgusting). It was hard to sleep. The sheets feel like sandpaper and we had to clean blankets before we felt comfortable using them. Very gross, outdated and junky. The views are great and the hottub is a nice touch. Those are the only remdeeming qualities. The pictures do not tell the whole story. I would skip this place and would never recommend to anyone.

We spent the weekend with family playing board games, watching movies, and enjoying the hot tub. Since this was a winter visit, we did not use the lake, but it would be a fantastic spot in the summer for swimming or launching a kayak. We will definitely be back!

There is a lot to like about this house. Beautiful views on a quiet bay of Woahink lake. Comfortable furniture and beds. Very quiet - we never heard any neighbors. There are other houses close by, but the yard (and hot tub) are sheltered by trees and shrubs so it feels very private. The hot tub was wonderful! Worked well and very clean. The whole house was very clean. Our only complaint was the heat. It was turned down to 50 when we arrived at about 6:30pm. We turned it up immediately, but it took about 10 hours to bring the temp up to a comfortable level. Once it warmed up it worked fine. If you rent in the winter, make sure to verify that the heat will be turned up when you arrive. The only other issue we noticed is that the windows and doors have no screens. Not a problem in the winter, but I wonder if it might be an issue for summer renters. All in all a very nice rental house! We would stay again.

We really enjoyed the location right on the lake. It is private and the lake is not a super busy one with motor boats. Everyone in our group had a lot of fun and we would definitely come back!
The house is roomy and has a lot of character.

Location and view were amazing! House was picked up, fresh towels, soap, laundry detergent, garbage bags and dishwasher soap all fully stocked. The hot tub was warm yet filthy ( filters full of mildew need to be changed). One of the beds smelled of urine along with comforter for same bed. The whole house including furniture needs a deep clean and a refresh. Beautiful location and views of the lake were the best part of the home.

We love this spot. This was our 4th stay. The kids are growing up in this location + love it too. Still, it is camping: house seriously needs deep cleaning. Also, hot tub + dishwasher were broken for our stay. Disappointing. Thanks for asking. CU next time.

One huge plus is a tranquil location, the home is nestled in a private lake cove. It is quite, spacious and comfortable. Another nice plus was the drawers and cabinets in the kitchen are labeled so you aren’t searching as long for whatever it is you need for cooking. But the home has a used feel, lots of delayed maintenance issues and a moldy smell. The dishwasher doesn’t really dry the dishes, the spa was broken, the dock was not useable, the yard not well maintained and the property just seemed tired. No pride in ownership was evident. That said, it was functional.and I would stay there again.

We had a wonderful time and plan to be back! If you’re traveling with kids know this house is STOCKED with multiple high chairs/boosters/toys/books/packn’ plays/crib mattresses the works! Next time we won’t be packing anything except the essentials and the kiddos plates/cups/silverware,
because everything else was there already! Also the layout was fantastic, decor was beautiful, and location was great! Can’t wait to go back!

Great family stay
We all were in awe of the views at this home, but we loved that there was something for everyone in the family. My two year old son LOVED the toy closet and I was happily surprised with all the baby supplies (bouncers, rockers, ex.) that were available to use. We played card games late into the night in the dining room. I loved the peace and quiet of the area. We would definitely stay again!

Mens retreat
So much potential… location and access is awesome. The house needs some time, skill and vision and it would be amazing. It was lots of fun and we enjoyed ourselves. Hopefully it won’t get run down from neglect.

Dated Beauty on Water
Beautiful location on the water. House has many beds for larger groups. No fires or firepit outside and must be quiet for neighbors. Bathroom door upstairs locks you inside if you close the door. Downstairs master has a TV, but once you sign in with your own Netflix or Amazon account, there is not enough bandwidth to actually play a movie. Most games are missing pieces to play them .
