Overlooking Old Town yet In a Secluded Forest Setting

This unique property sits in a secluded forest setting high above Old Town and the Siuslaw River bridge. It offers complete privacy yet is just a short walk to the shops, restaurants, harbor, and other attractions of Old Town. Go down a forest path to arrive at the high dunes overlooking the Siuslaw River, Florence, and the Ocean. You do have to climb the dunes, which is challenging.

The house comes with two bedrooms upstairs with an adjoining deck that overlooks the forest and a gives you a peek at Old Town; there is another bedroom downstairs. All beds are Queen size. The paneled great room has multiple view windows and comes with a fully equipped kitchen, a dining area, and a pellet stove. There is high speed internet and a large TV in the living room area. There is a laundry area with a washer and dryer. A deck with outside seating and a gas barbeque is located off the great room. There is a lawn with a great big fire pit surrounded by log benches and plenty of firewood. Surrounding it all is the virgin forest.

Clean, Private, comfortable although the driveway should be paved so a car can get up the steep driveway it took us 3 times in the car but if you have a truck or 4x4 you will be fine!!

A little R&R

This is our second stay. My husband and I love this house! It is absolutely peaceful. The dogs love it. We like to go to just unplug and spend time together. The only thing missing was a plug for the tub.

Natures retreat

Amazing setting with areas for gathering and exploring. Area for morning reflections with covered deck and sitting area, day of hiking and adventures in woodland setting and dunes, evenings around the campfire for marshmallows, songs and stories, night of comfortable slumber and dreams. Driveway was steep yet notified of this prior to visit and we were able to navigate up to find a exceptional getaway secluded and magical. The Turner Clan

Beautiful woods

We enjoyed staying at this house with our dog, surrounded by beautiful woods. We enjoyed downstairs patio and a deck upstairs as well as a seating area with a fire pit. At night you can see the lights of the old town through the trees. There are many excellent places to eat a few minutes away right across the bridge. We also enjoyed Darlings marina restaurant : amazing hamburgers and bbq. Safeway is close by. We had no issues with water and all appliances work. Our bed was comfortable. We would stay there again.

OMG :)

The road is steep, VERY steep, leading to the property but there was a forest wonderland located at the top. It was private and secluded. There was plenty of room for parking and outside activities. The forest trails were private and safe for all levels of walkers. It was a cabin with space and we were very comfortable.

Your own private forest! But still two minutes from town!

The house is an older house, but it is wonderfully charming. The best part of this property is location, location, location. It has its own private forest a big green yard fire pits barbecue. It’s amazing. You can walk to the dunes privately. Your dogs can run freely!And the owner of the property is a real great guy! I would recommend this property any time! Some reviews listed the driveway as an issue. It is not it is perfectly.perfectly fine.

Cherry hill

This little house was great. So beautiful and secluded in the forest. The only scary part was the drive in. The hill to get there is very steep and dirt. You have to get a running start.

Peaceful retreat

We had a great time at this rustic coastal home. If you are the type of person that wants to gripe about low water pressure, creaking stairs or raccoons on the porch in the middle of the night, book a different place. This place is country and reminds me of my roots. Support staff was responsive and helpful. We will definitely be back

It was in a wonderful location. Enjoyed lots of great walks. Beds were comfortable. House was cute. Hard to get ahold of owners. They promised they would bring pellets up for stove and failed to come back. Never returned phone call and text.

Amazing

I wish i had it in me to give this place a terrible review. That would be for selfish reasons. Great little house in the woods under 10 minutes from everything. I was apprehensive after reading other reviews, rental car company messed up and gave me a little carolla instead of an SUV. Carolla got up the driveway just fine, no problems with the water or water pressure, property manager was great, price was perfect for what i got, dryer was swapped out the day i arrived, it was a great vacation. If you dont like peace and quiet stay away from this place Cant wait for my next visit!

Consider your trip “glamping”

I do not recommend staying here. If you can make it up the steep graveled driveway and bring similar supplies as you would glamping, the location and privacy of this house can’t be beat. Our two wheel drive Kia Sorento barely made it up the driveway with a running start. We had warm water in the kitchen compared to other reviews but the pressure was non existent. Showers were not possible, not even a trickle of water came out of the shower head. The bathroom sink never had warm water and we had issues with the toilet flushing properly because of the lack of pressure. We had to wash any dish before using them not because of a few smudges but because the layers of grease on items. The house was ill stocked with essentials like enough toilet paper and dish towels. The internet did not work at all and the owner was non responsive to our request for support via text. He randomly stopped by to pick up some tools and said he would be back, he never came. The lack of screens on the windows made the July heat tough. We’ve experienced minor inconveniences with properties in the past but have never had a stay thay made us want to go home. If it were for us traveling with my elder parents who couldn’t make the long drive again so quickly, we would have left.
