Really nice getaway

It’s a nice little house with an excellent location. Comfortably furnished and bright, the house has super convenient access to the beach, which is flat and excellent for people and dogs. The location was in a quiet neighborhood but convenient to several coastal towns and restaurants. Will stay again.

Cute cottage on a beautiful stretch of beach

Cute home, well stocked kitchen, and happy coastal-themed decor! Hot tub with a view of the ocean, large tables for family game night, and large yard for the pups to romp around. Private access to a gorgeous stretch of beach. We will definitely be back!

Great Stay

We had a great time at Once Upon a Tide. Was the perfect getaway for our family. The access down to the beach looks more dicey than it actually is. While the lower rail could use fixing as the post was broken at some point, We navigated it easily with a 13 month old in our arms, but there is a public stairway just 1 house away. Hot tub was great. I would consider opening it up to burn off a little of the chlorine in the daylight before getting in, but it was a great spot to relax after longer days out and about. All in all, it was a great stay and I would recommend.

Sweetest home on the Oregon Coast

We loved the house and the location. The house is very well cared for and very clean and well-stocked. It was perfect for our family. My only concern is the late check in time - wish we could have more time in the house that first day.

It is bigger than it looks in the pictures and the beach is truly right in front of the property. A beautiful place just as described and better than in the pictures. The booking and management is through a company but they are super professional and responsive. Great place!
