Beautiful home by the river and very close to beaches!

We enjoyed our stay in this beautiful, spacious home! The hot tub was lovely and the kitchen was wonderfully large and well stocked with cookware and spices! It was a great place to relax with our pups and was conveniently close to shops and Manzanita beach. Would be happy to stay again!

Lovely, comfortable home & beautiful view of river

Excellent communication from owner. Well stocked kitchen items, bath & bed linens, shampoo, toilet paper, etc. Happy to chill out at this home, using the hot tub, watching the river & seeing the night sky away from the city. Lots of scenic places to hike & enjoy the ocean in this area, too. Loved reading the history of how the home was built. We found it extremely comfortable to stay here.

Beautiful home with a stunning view and close to the beaches! The only issue we encountered was with the hot water - on the morning we left, we only had cold water for showers. I informed Ted so hopefully the issue’s been resolved.

Piece of heaven

My friends and I loved our stay on the Nehalem River. It felt very private, relaxing, and cozy. We were within 45 minutes of all the places we wanted to go to other than the airport and Multnomah falls which made it a great experience as well. The hot tub was a huge win for us, we spent each evening of it soaking in the hot tub laughing, relaxing, and enjoying the view. I would recommend this place to everyone wanting to stay on the Oregon Coast.

Quiet and serene

Lovely place to stay. Quiet and right on the river and about 15ish minutes to the manzanita beach. Fully stocked and absolutely beautiful. You can tell lots of love, blood , sweat and tears went in to building this lovely home. Only suggestion I would make is to put non-slip treads on the rugs in the kitchen and halls.

Spent the weekend with some great friends from Montana and enjoyed the beautiful house on the river. The hot tub was great and we were sad to leave once our visit was over. Overall great house, I grew up staying at my grandparents house in wheeler where they always had everything you needed and this house felt just like that, warm and comfortable

July 4th on the river

Our group of 4 adults and 2 preteen boys had the best time staying at this beautiful property. Ted was a gem and very communicative and accommodating. The house was perfectly stocked with everything we needed. My son fell in love with kayaking on the river. We saw an abundance of wildlife and got to enjoy an epic fireworks display on the river. 10 out of 10 experience. We will definitely be back!!

Great place to stay. Spent two weeks there during the summer. Sat on the deck and watched the boats go by on the river. Watched the deer graze in the meadow across the street. Enjoyed the local flavor, especially Wanda’s and Buttercup. Short drive to the beach at Manzanita. 5 stars.
