I honestly can’t think of anything I didn’t love about my trip. With the pandemic I have been working some long hard hours as a restaurant GM, and I was overdue for a break. I realized that I was missing the ocean, hadn’t been to the Pacific in 15+ years! So I decided to take a road trip from SLC with my tiny schnauzer as my co-pilot. I loved the home and the view was wonderful! I wish I could have stayed longer.
I loved the older-model home! It had a lot of furniture items that looked so similar to furniture that I remember from my childhood and some that we still have. The windows along the front of the home really opens up the view of the sea! I enjoyed cracking my windows so I could listen to the waves crashing along the rocky shore. Was very peaceful.
Suggestions for future guests: you might want to bring a blanket to snuggle up on the couch with. The heat works just fine, but I like to keep it kind of cool, so I cracked the windows and left the heat down low.
Also, be aware that the washer/dryer are in the garage, under the house... not super accessible, so I didn’t use it.

This is a sweet comfortable place. Perfect for a couple. Only hitch is internet wasn't working when we arrived and there is no phone service without it. Took a day to get that fixed.
Manager response:
Hi Bonnie, thank you for staying with Vacasa! We apologize for the issues you had during your stay and we're glad that the local staff were able to resolve the internet issue. Thank you for your feedback, and we look forward to hosting you in the future!

The home was extremely cozy and well cared for. We loved the vintage feel and the very quiet neighborhood.

We had a relaxing time at this house. The space is perfect for a family of four. Although the listing says there is a queen and a full bed, I think both beds are full beds. One of my sons slept on the sofa bed so they slept well. We loved that the house is pet friendly. It is an older home with some ocean view. The house has a large deck and it was nice to spend a lot of time there. It would’ve been nice to be able to use the portable grill locked in the storage room next to the kitchen. I was told that amenity was unavailable. We could not find a laundry room. It also said to put dishes in the dishwasher but the house does not have a dishwasher. Nowhere it said how to access the garage. Was there a garage? Everything was clean except for the floors. It would’ve been nice to find clean floors. They were not even swept.
Manager response:
Hi, Kirey! We are so glad you were able to relax while staying at Whale-Watcher's Perch. The homeowner does store some personal items on the porch that are not available for guest use, and we do not advertise these items, such as the grill. There is a garage area with the washer and dryer available for guest use. We are sorry you missed these amenities and will be sure the instructions for the garage are easily located. We have verified the home has a queen and a full bed, and we have asked housekeeping to be more mindful of the floors while cleaning. Thank you!

Very comfortable clean delightful, and comfortable. Although the view of the ocean is a little limited, you do have a fair view of it and great beach exploring is only a few minutes away. Great location to many of oregon’s delights including beaches, harbors, restaurants and hikes. All this at a great price!

Loved the bones of this house and the stunning view of the ocean. Thank you for being dog friendly so the entire family can be on vacation together. We really enjoyed our stay. The only thing I would mention that needs improvement is lighting in the garage and directions on where to find the laundry room. Also, we could not locate the trash cans to take out our trash when we checked out but maybe the cleaning service takes care of this? Would also have liked a recycling container. Other then these minor things I would definitely come back.

This house has an amazing view and great for a little ladies weekend or a sweet weekend with a partner. We came into town early and asked to check in earlier then expected. Was told due to covid that extra cleaning time was needed and this house was not very clean. Also weak deck boards and my sister fell through, hurting herself pretty badly. Other then that it was a cute two bedroom house with an amazing view and perfect for a getaway.
Manager response:
Hi, Jessica! Thank you so much for letting us know about your review. We are so sorry about the deck boards; they have been repaired. We will make sure housekeeping is achieving a thorough clean each reservation. We hope to see you again!

Spent a very relaxing weekend here. Loved having ocean views from the living room and being able to bring my dog!

The home is an older home but very clean and the views are incredible it was perfect for our weekend getaway

This is our favorite place to stay at the beach! It was lovely to sit out on the deck with a cup of coffee in the morning. Watching the sunset each night was also amazing! Such a comfy, cozy house.
Charlie M.Aug 2019
Loved the location, the views and the amenities.
Ruth D.Aug 2019
The first day while reading a book in the living room, I looked up and saw several whales! Saw more over the next few days. The house is beautifully decorated, though clearly quite old.
Sara A.Jan 2019
Spent the new year at this place with a couple of friends. Very cozy, well appointed kitchen (even a sharp knife!), generous quantity of firewood, quiet and friendly neighborhood, view of the milky way on clear nights. A friend described her night on the pull out couch as "sleeping in a bowl," but we all agreed that was to be expected.
Douglas L.Nov 2018
Good view, quiet street/area, dog friendly
Jana F.Nov 2018
My friend and I stayed in this lovely home for five nights. It was one of the most relaxing vacations either of us have ever been on. We had little desire to venture into town because we just wanted to sit in the living room and watch the ocean and the whales as they played! The home is charming retreat and we would love to go back again!
Lisa M.Oct 2018
We love this home! It’s such a great location, with the short drive to Cape Foulweather. I love taking walks to the bridge and Rodeo Point. The user-friendly kitchen makes it so easy to cook yummy breakfasts and dinners. The beds are comfy and you can’t beat the view! We’ve seen many whales from the comfort of the living room, while drinking coffee. Can’t wait to come back!
Michelle K.Oct 2018
My family and I had such a great time at this home that we had a hard time leaving. The location is perfect and the home size was exactly what we needed for four people. We all love whale watching and got exactly that - it seemed I saw more whales in the short time I was there then I have my entire life. I would definitely recommend this place and love to visit again. Many great memories were made here! Thanks for such a great place!
Monika D.Jul 2018
The fire place to the left, the ocean view to the right. See the ocean from the kitchen, dining room, livingroom, and deck. I just wished I'd known it was whale watching season!
Our family loved this place. Although it didn't have walkable beach access, it was located close to a ton of attractions.
We will be back.
