What's nearby:
Located just south of Depoe Bay, you'll find yourself perched right between Cape Foulweather and the Ben Jones Bridge viewpoint. This part of the coast is a rocky cliff, but sandy beach access points are within a quick drive in either direction - Beverly Beach to the south is a great place to look for fossils or take the kids to run, and Fogarty Creek to the north is one of the best spots for tide pool searching and agate hunting. You can find great shopping and dining options to the north in Depoe Bay, or venture south to Newport for whale watching excursions, frequent events, and beautiful bays and beaches.

Full kitchen (no dishwasher)
Nightly pet fee applies
Free Wifi

If you are bringing a dog on your trip, the nightly pet fee is already included in your quote when selecting "Yes" to pets. If you would like to add more dogs, please contact us. The nightly fee ranges between $150 and $200, depending on the bedroom count, and will apply for each additional dog.

Whale Watchers Perch

The view was incredible, property was quaint and comfortable. Mattresses and appliances a little antiquated but adequate. My girls loved the whole experience.

Relaxing weekend

I enjoyed the old ocean front cabin. I slept great in the bed. Kind of a bummer there is no beach access being that close though. Neighbors seemed to hate living in that area. Fortunately I didn't have to talk to any of them. Don't book vacasa through VRBO. They charge yet another ridiculous fee just to book. Normally I would have booked direct through vacasa, but it was a costly oversite on my part.

NYE

Cozy and cute costal cabin! Perfect for a group of friends celebrating the new year. It is an older cabin, with a bit of wear and tear, so if that bothers you, I’d find something more modern. Views were great, quiet neighborhood, and great amenities! It was fun exploring apart of the coast we don’t normally spend time at/have access to.

Perfect getaway

We had the most incredible stay at the Whale Watcher's Perch. From the moment we arrived, we were captivated by the breathtaking views of the ocean. The house itself was not only adorable but also impeccably clean and well-maintained. We especially enjoyed sipping morning coffee on the deck, taking in the fresh sea breeze. I can't recommend this charming little house enough. It's a little piece of heaven by the sea, and I can't wait to return for another unforgettable escape.
