Spacious condo with beautiful views. The path to the beach is steep but manageable in sandals. Kitchen and baths were dated but functional. Short distance from town. The wifi and tv didn't work, but after speaking with the property manager they provided us a discount. Wish there were more games or cards to play in the evenings since the tv didn't work. The one deck of cards provided was missing the 8 of diamonds. Would stay here again.

We love this place. From the view to the private beach, everything is wonderful. It's an older and a bit dated condo but everything works and is very clean.
The bed of comfortable too!

Fantastic view property. Loved weather at Brookings! Unit somewhat dated. Can’t wait to return!

Very nice with private beach access. Easy drive to redwoods and other attractions.
4.8
We stayed at the Whale Watcher for 5 nights and the condo was tastefully decorated and located within an easy drive to the Oregon Redwoods. The condo is closer to a road than we thought it would be from the pictures so there was road noise we hadn’t expected but it was a minor issue for us as we could still hear the waves and the noise wasn’t noticeable at night. We are already planning to come back to this property!

Lovely condo! Well equipped and appointed, with the most incredible views of the ocean. Clean, and ready and good communication. Great location, close to Brookings. It is a third floor WALKUP, and the trail to the beach is Not for the faint of heart or anyone with difficulty hiking. We were two women in mid-70’s, who made it down and up once! But chose to drive to the beach after that! But the Cave and Rainbow Rock, on the very private beach, made it worth the trip down (an up, up, up).
4.8
This condo offered spectacular views and a long path down to a private beach. The cave at Rainbow Rock was amazing, but check for low tides before exploring. Condo was as described. Bathrooms were clean and the bed in the MB was very comfy. The living room and lookout areas were great, especially since it started raining the minute we arrived! Plenty of games and books to choose from - we played a lot of chess while waiting for the rain to pass. Kitchen was well-stocked but missing the essential tools for eating the wonderful Dungeness crabs that are available fresh from the harbor. Our only real disappointment was that the kitchen cabinets, which have no handles and are spring-loaded to open, were quite dirty with lots of greasy finger prints. All-in-all, it was a GREAT weekend!

We four sisters had not been together for five years. Our stay with you was perfect. We felt so at home at your very special place. It could not have been better.

A really nice property in gated complex. Beach access was private and the kids had a great time. The condo had plenty of utensils, cookware and a few extras. everything worked besides the hand mixer! Lovely stay, thank you very much.
4.8
Spectacular views of the ocean are its best feature. We were a little disappointed that the accessible beach area was small and mostly large rocks and logs. But, the location is close to many other nice walking beachs.
Also, disappointed in the fireplace because the only fuel was 1 duralog. A gas fueled fireplace would have been much more useful.
4.8
Only cons about property is the shower head in bathrooms are set up for someone who is 4 feet tall and shoots a hard stream of water out of nozzzle…….with amount owner charges you would think that kind of upgrade would be affordable…….

We are repeat visitors and love this place! Close to everything with gorgeous ocean views. We will be back!

The first thing that we noticed when walking in this condo was the view. It is beautiful. The condo was clean and had everything that we needed for our stay. We would gladly stay again if we are in the Brookings area.

We were here before in 2019 and came back. Like it. You can walk to the beach (Lone Ranch Beach) to the north through the trail by the bench area on the north side of the parking lot or from the marker for the trailhead on Hwy 101 outside the gate. In our opinion, that is the best beach and park for many miles in both directions.
4.8
Beautiful views, very clean and quiet. The caves on the beach are amazing. We really enjoyed our stay and will be back.

We thoroughly enjoyed our 3 night stay here during our family vacation. So peaceful and quiet! The view of the ocean is breathtaking. A very nice and unexpected surprise was all the privacy on the beach. We walked the lovely trail down to the beach every day and marveled at the rock formations, trees, flowers, vast expanse of sky and ocean, and sound of the waves. Beds were super comfortable although we didn’t use the fireplace, it was so nice to have that option available. Just the peace and relaxation that we needed!

We all loved this beautiful condo home where we stayed for two nights. The home was clean and comfortable with everything we needed during our stay. The neighbors that live there are even friendly and engaging. The seating areas for the awesome view were perfect. Having beach access is a wonderful thing to enjoy!

This was an amazing condo with a million dollar Oregon coast view. Clean, well stocked kitchen, easy check in.
Holly is a great host and very easy to work with. Our next trip to Oregon will definitely include a stay at the "Whale Watcher".

Easy process. Clean up list not complicated.

We thoroughly enjoyed our time here. The location is terrific and the view is outstanding. The short walk to the private beach is easy until the last part but there is a rope fence to assist with that. The place was quiet and very comfortable. The shower heads do need to be moved up a bit (I'm 5' and I had to lean over). Other than that, it's definitely our favorite place to stay in Brookings!
4.8
Lovely little place to stay and enjoy being near the ocean. The trail to the beach was a little steep, but absolutely worth the effort to get down a walk around the rocks, and the views were unbeatable.
4.8
The condo was very nice, well appointed and the view was to die for! Unfortunately, the unit is close to Hwy 101 and you could hear the road noise even with the door closed. We sort of got used to it but it did take away from our stay.
4.8
While yes, this condo is dated (kitchen, bathrooms) and I felt the need to really air it out (again, due to its age) - the views, beach access, location in relation to town and sights to see were 10+!
Sitting inside (or on the balcony) watching the fog roll in and dissipate as the day went on was pure magic. The nice little hike down to the private access beach is beautiful and time spent down there again, was magical.
If you're wanting to enjoy the gorgeous scenery of southern Oregon from your rental as well as driving around, THIS is your place!
4.8
This place has amazing views and the beach access is incredible. Truly a wonderful place location. The condo itself is quite dated, it appears that it hasn’t been upgraded since it was built. And the shower height is about 5 feet, which means crouching (not ducking) if you are 5’ 11” like me.
But none of that matters. It’s worth staying here just to be here. Wonderful spot. Beautiful
4.8
Immediately upon walking into this unit on the top floor you are bowled over by the expansive view. Absolutely stunning! We were fortunate to have only a few times when it was socked in with fog but most of our time there was clear. Enjoyed a couple of trips down to the beach on the property's trail and then also explored the north direction on the coastal trail to yet another amazing beach. Could have stayed longer for sure! Everything we needed (except for a cork screw)! Thanks for sharing your great place!

Stunning Views
Great little condo with stunning views. Super clean and well stocked. It is close to the highway so if you are looking for peace and quiet while sipping coffee on the balcony, this may not be the place for you...it did not bother us but some may not like the noise.

We enjoyed every second of our stay. The place was so thoughtful with all of the little touches and felt like a ‘home’. Will definitely recommend. It made our ‘once in a lifetime’ trip - magical.

We had a wonderful weekend here at the whale watcher condo! It was my 14 month old daughters first overnight stay at the beach and she (and we) enjoyed it thoroughly. Loved the views and how close it was to so many wonderful restaurants, stores, hiking trails and drive down beaches! We drove 5.5 from the pdx area and will definitely be returning! Thank you for the great stay!
