About this property

YES We completed building our brand new 2 level vacation house in Twin Rocks a few years ago. Twin Rocks is just South of Rockaway Beach (about 15 miles north of Tillamook) - just 90 scenic minutes from Portland.

Our house is a 2 Bedroom 2 Bath very comfortably furnished house with a full kitchen. There is a 2 level large patio (one covered) with a lovely view of the mountains and has a Weber Charcoal and a Weber Gas BBQ and patio furniture.

Our comfortable house is less than a one minute walk to the beach. - one road away from the beach front- just steps away from the pristine quiet clean 7.5 mile Twin Rocks beach.

It is a perfect get away, a comfortable retreat, for a family or a romantic getaway in a quiet serene atmosphere. You will enjoy the secluded, peaceful & beautiful Twin Rocks Beach and the spectacular sunsets. Near Shopping, dining & beach & yet still secluded.

This is our vacation house, our family's pride – not a professional vacation rental.

Great location to visit the Oregon Coast

This property was a short walk to the beach. Everything is helpfully labeled in the house. We used it as home base to visit the Oregon Coast between Cape Meares and Cannon Beach. Great communication with owner, and we received helpful information about the tide pools along the coast and how to interpret the tides. This house will work for 2 couples (if one doesn't mind twin beds), or for a family with 2 or 3 children sharing a room. The kids WILL fight over who gets to stay in the cool loft area though!

Great family getaway

We love the privacy and convince of this property. We have been coming here since 2014, and always look forward to our stay. The location is prime, just a block from the beach. The kitchen is adequately stocked and the owner is trustworthy.

Pro: location Con: cleanliness

Starting with the positive, the location is nice and exactly as expected. Also, the small yard was completely fenced in making it very dog friendly. Unfortunately, there are way more negatives to this property. Everything had a layer of dust on it. Both shower curtins were moldy. House needed a lot of deep cleaning, updating and general maintenance including the exterior.

Close and Clean

A beautiful beach is literally a two minute easy walk. Quiet area. House was clean and well organized. NO bugs or mold! Appliances worked well, including washer/dryer. We didn't use the outdoor spaces. Parking was easy and checkout cleaning was fine. Good communication with host.

About the host

Hosted by Vik Savara

Retired Engineering/Marketing Executive living with wife in Portland. Both kids (they will always be kids!) with families in other states.

Why they chose this property

We fell in love with the serenity of the Twin Rocks beach - it truly is a hidden gem - away from the 'tourist' beaches - but yet very accessible to nearby townships and a large city (Tillamook). The beach is clean and with few very friendly people - the Twin Rocks Island with its spectacular sunsets is just in front. Feed the birds - build castles, take a relaxing walk, Excellent Kite flying in gentle wind and for the young at heart - marshmallows over bonfires on the beach at night.

What makes this property unique

Every now and then we just have to take a break from our routine - and we always return from the beach house so very refreshed. Since our house is just a minutes walk to the beach - it is very convenient to make several trips during the day - a brisk morning walk with the birds, Coming back for brunch then a walk after tea - returning after Sunset. In summer there is the Coastal Railway which goes from Rockaway Beach to Gharibaldi & Back - the kids (and adults)just enjoy the scenery from open air cabooses - with the tracks at the edge of the sea - the scenery is beautiful and the kids love waiving to pedestrians walking on the roads. There are tide pools to wonder at , Deep Sea Fishing ,Golf, Air Museum in the famous Gas Dirigibles Hanger; Tillamook Cheese Factory Tours; Wine Tasting - so much so close. Our house is just minutes from downtown Rockaway Beach with its restaurants, Library, Ice Cream Parlors and fantastic smoked fish; New Orleans Ribs and British Fish/Chips ( no chains )!
