  • Whimsy by the Sea - House in Port Orford, OR

    Charming house near a path to the beach with ocean views and free WiFi - dogs OK

    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!

House could use a better cleaning. Kitchen could use an upgrade, stove and utensils, baking pans. Mattress pad is torn and needs to be replaced. Yard maintenance could be better.

The host was very responsive and kind.But the fact that there are cameras mounted in the house (Kitchen and BEDROOM) is so NOT okay! Very intrusive whether covered by a paper towell or black tape! Super creepy. And beware if you walk down to the path to the secret beach. there is a weird, cigar smoking guy, that has a brown lab and he has the dog rush at you and bark , growl and show its teeth like it's going to bite you while he just idly stands there not saying a word and just laughing. SUPER creepy. We won't be staying there again!!!!!
