About this house rental
Whimsy by the Sea
Our calendar is updated in real-time & our nightly rates are accurately displayed. Simply enter your desired dates and click 'Book Now!'
Whimsy will exceed your expectations, as it is truly a charming and unique home offering incredible views. Whether you want to relax and enjoy the large selection of books throughout the house or get out and explore the town and the nearby beaches, this is the perfect home base.
Getting to the beach is simple - just follow the trail at the end of the street below the house that takes you to the secluded Shelter Cove Beach. Sheltered from the wind and surrounded by natural habitat, the home and its large yard offer serene views any time of year. And when you want to check out Port Orford, you'll find an incredibly welcoming town with a surprising selection of restaurants, shops, and galleries to explore.
This house offers Port Orford cedar throughout, giving it a warm ambience. On the main level you'll find a full kitchen, a living area, and a master bedroom with a private deck that's great for watching the sunset over the ocean. Climb the spiral staircase and you'll reach the loft space, with twin beds and a library of books. There's also a gangplank leading to an indoor deck feature, which offers a nook with windows looking out to the ocean and the Port Orford Reef. With free WiFi throughout the home and many forms of wildlife outside your window, you'll have plenty to keep you entertained. The family dog is also welcome!
Reserve your vacation to Port Orford and this charming house today!

Stayed for a month. We love the Oregon coast, and this property gave us access to so much!
We hiked the cape and point trails at the coast guard station numerous times, as well as, other trails up and down the coast. Found lots of agates. Deer came through our yard sometimes twice a day, and we watched them through huge picture windows. This property was remodeled by someone with superior style and carpentry skills. The upstairs loft area is spectacular.

The place is both off the beaten path and centrally located. We had plans to visit more of Port Orford, but the view from the picture winfow kept us inside, chatting and enjoying the amazing Pacific Ocean. We loved there was no TV to distract from Mother Natures best must see TV.

House dirty, in need of deep cleaning ! Could use new towels and shower mats. Too much clutter regarding pots snd pans because they were stored on dirty floor. Outside house and yard unkept and deck not safe. Neighborhood quiet and peaceful with deer outside windows. Beach beautiful had to ask neighbor for access.

Eclectic, like the neighborhood. Unexpected delights in the spiral staircase, indoor bridge to deck with rocking chairs overlooking the forest and the sea - great sunsets.
4.6
Great views and sunsets! Lovely upstairs. Accommodation overall needs some maintenance and updating and to be a bit cleaner.

Whimsy is a gorgeous and yet simple place that allows for relaxation, great views, access to beautiful hikes and fun food places. The cabin is a work of art with a view (and plenty of books to read). Highly recommended!

It was clean and perfect for our family, the kids loved the staircase! It wasn’t super easy to navigate as a heavier adult but it wasn’t that bad at all! Beautiful view and a lovely Doe with her twin fawns came to visit!

We arrived around sunset and the views were simply stunning! The proximity to the state parks and beach were also perfect for our exploring. Highly recommend to any who want to relax and recharge!

My wife and adult daughter really enjoyed our stay. We will definitely be back. The experience was everything that we expected. The only negative aspect was the lack of a large pan fir cooking( Perhaps not everyone has a wife and daughter who are gourmet chefs ). Overall an excellent experience!!

This house is cute and the location is very private with a pretty view. Perfect house to enjoy some peace/quiet but we were pretty disappointed that the trail to the beach (in the description of the house) doesn't actually exist. The outside of the house could be better maintained and the sofa bed is pretty wore out as well. Love the loft but definitely not safe for young kids and the spiral staircase is a tight squeeze for even an average sized adult. Could be alot nicer with some small changes/updates
4.6
We had a great time, ocean sunsets every night, cool and unique home. Internet wasn't working when we got there, I called vacasa who couldn't help, stated that local manager would contact me next day. Nobody ever called or emailed me, luckily, I figured it out. Very quiet, private neighborhood.

It was a cute house.' Good if you have kids. Close to a state park. One down siI was told there's a trail to beach from property. That was not true.

The view was outstanding, the bedrooms provided much needed comfort. Loved the selection of books. It would have been nice for the living room to have a recliner type chair, and the outside could use better yard furniture and a grill.
Otherwise, we loved the house and all of its other amenities. It made our stay on the beach very relaxing! We will definitely return!

A beautiful spot on the Oregon coast. Quiet and peaceful. Stairs to loft are tight to get up. Has most everything we needed. Could not find trail (listed in description of house) to coast and no instructions in the house for anything such as recycle rules, trail directions, heating, etc. Lots-and lots of books and plenty of kitchen supplies. A nice place overall.

This is a gem location with a very basic level of amenities and a drop dead killer view of the ocean and big sunsets. The wifi was adequate which is a plus, too. Good access to coastal walking trails. Good local grocery store just a few minutes drive. Check out the whales off the port!

Sweet, cozy, craftsman’s home
Hard to figure out the lights arriving in the dark, but once settled in it was a very cozy and unique little craftsman home. Ocean far in the distance but a nice view from upstairs. No coffee provided, bring your own. Coffee pot and filters provided. Felt very homey a nice stay.
