Make Rockaway Beach your next getaway

In 1909, developers established Rockaway Beach, OR as a seaside resort in the tradition of its Long Island namesake. The small community connected by train to Portland and served as a popular getaway for "city folk" for well over a hundred years. Today, it's a somewhat quieter but equally desirable destination on the Oregon Coast for those seeking a quintessential beach town experience.

Recent Rockaway Beach vacation rental reviews

Was a great location, loved the hot tub and the fire pit , beautiful home. Would stay again
Lana B. | Jun 2023
We enjoyed our stay in this older home, equipped with new appliances. The rental was SPOTLESS! The location is supreme. It feels very private, among the trees. The house on the South side is backed up against a hill, so no neighbors on that side. The houses on this street are on different levels so it feels as if there are no neighbors at all. The rental is also located a short walk to town so we parked the car and walked everywhere. The hill is a bit daunting but it is only 250 paces. We have been vacationing in Rockaway for twenty years and have not seen a rental which is so private yet so convenient. We have stayed in rental on the beach before and you are on top of everyone there and there is lots of construction noise. We couldn't hear any of that from the hillside rental! We also appreciated the new doors and windows with screens! The deck is fantastic, big and in great shape. The tiny but beautiful yard is gorgeous with flowering bushes and trees. It is completely fenced in, we appreciated that we could let our dog out from either the upstairs deck or from the front door on the lower level and know that she is contained. Bedrooms were quiet, shady rooms with very comfy beds! The downstairs bedroom now contains a queen size bed instead of the twin beds pictured on the listing. This worked out perfectly as we were two couples, and they had their own apartment down there, completely independent of the other floor, except for the kitchen. The media set up is simple, Smart TV's which you can stream your own subscriptions on. We didn't want to go without our cable, so we just used an HDM1 cable to hook it up to our streaming cable on our laptop. There is not much to complain about this awesome house! We found the e-lock door a little confusing but caught on. The only strange thing about this house is that there were no dressers, but ample closet space. We highly recommend this rental and also highly recommend using Vacasa. We have been booking through them for 15 years and have never had an issue. Love that they have a local team to address anything that may come up.

Just south of town, photographers flock to the beautiful Twin Rocks for a jaw-dropping image of the sun sinking below the horizon. During the summer months, take a ride along the historic Oregon Coast Scenic Railroad, departing from Rockaway Beach's iconic "Little Red Caboose."

With a full kitchen back at your cozy vacation home, you'll be able to catch your own dinner, be it Dungeness crab, Coho salmon, or fresh-caught clams.
