Charming, lg beach home 5 blocks to sand/town, HOT TUB, firepit,TV.Dog ok.
Come enjoy our perfectly charming, large and lovely comfortable home just 5 blocks to the sand and city center with a HOT TUB, huge kitchen, large & cozy great room and 8' dining room table. You’ll be overlooking a beautiful city park and field with mountain views. Huge firepit outside and big stone fireplace inside mean chilly nights after a day in the sun are more than toasty. With 3+ bedrooms, everyone in the house has a super comfortable place to sleep. Remodeled bathrooms and kitchen provide the nicest touch of luxury. The 6-minute walk to the 7-mile white, sandy beach and downtown means the joys of beach life with the chance to retreat from the crowds to a spacious yard and home. The great room features a large stone gas fireplace, huge couch and 65" Smart TV. The big front yard includes Adirondack-like chairs around the large firepit and a picnic table while the back yard is fully enclosed with a bubling hot tub. Fencing and gates ensure safety for pets. Gas BBQ included. The wide galley kitchen is fully stocked with everything you need to whip up a feast for your family. You’ll love the mix and match beachy dishware and serving pieces. Better yet, get takeout from either the Old Oregon Smokehouse or Upper Crust Pizza and eat by a raging fire in the sunken firepit of the front yard. This one-story ranch house measures 1700 square feet and has only one step inside. It is ideal for families young and old or groups of up to 6 adults and 2 kids. We are dog friendly. With 2 parking spots. What really sets us apart from other rentals is the cleanliness and charming atmosphere (that is what our guests tell us, at least).You will be welcomed with a personal note from the owner who will share all the details you will need for an easy entry and exit. The owner is also happy to discuss your trip by phone prior and give you tips for the best vacation on the Coast. We also have an onsite contact on the same street to deal with any issue that arises. This house is the best of all worlds – centrally located on the North Central Coast. Head 20 minutes north to find Manzanita with its outstanding Laneda Street for shopping and art galleries. Just 20 minutes further north and you will land at the world-famous Cannon Beach. If the Tillamook Cheese Factory is on your list, it is an easy 20-minute drive south on the 101 from the house. From there, another 20 minutes you’ll hit Netarts and past that, Pacific City.
Come for a safe and fun, perfect summer experience!

Great location, front fire pit area, fenced backyard with hot tub and BBQ! Host was great at communicating and truly a delight! Beds are very comfortable and kitchen is large with an adjoining large gathering room for family. Easy walk to the beach and town.
The house was great. A short walk down to the shops or the beach and far enough to be quiet from all the hustle and bustle. The back porch area and hot tub was nice for the kids and keeping them contained. The house had some nice things there to use for the kids also. We will consider staying again if we make it back to Rockaway!
The house is in excellent location to the beach and downtown but still a quiet location. The kitchen is fabulous and accommodated our family. We enjoyed the hot tub and having an enclosed area for the dog. The dining and living room area was large enough for everyone to stretch out and communication with the host was excellent!
The house was perfect for our stay. Large living room, dining area, and kitchen. It was very spacious and great for a dog and a baby. Short walk to the small town and the beach. We made use of the fire pit and the hot tub. Check-in was easy and the host was very quick to respond to questions. Everything was exactly as described.
Nancy is such a great host and has created such a charming coastal getaway. She is so easy to communicate with and answered every question we had quickly. This trip was the perfect balance of being active and relaxation!
Our stay at the Cox’s beach house was wonderful. Lots of family relaxation and fun. The house is bright, cute, and comfortable. The kitchen is modern and well-stocked. The open dining area and living room are enjoyable, happy places to come together after a day exploring. The perfect walking distance from downtown and the beach, but far enough away that you can enjoy the quiet of the neighborhood. After we had an issue with the washer, Nancy was incredibly responsive, coming to take care of the problem herself. We had a fabulous time.
The location was great for the stay at Rockaway. It is just a few blocks from the middle of town. It is also next to a field with basketball, baseball, and tennis, along with a short walk to a park.
My friends and pets had the opportunity to stay at this lovely home for my birthday. Great location! We never had to drive as everything is close. Lots of room for everyone and all the amenities of home!
This is our 2nd year staying at this property! The location is perfect, just a short walk to the beach and the shops. Also, it’s a short drive to other towns/beaches.
The house is extremely clean and well cared for. The place is well stocked with just about everything you would need for an extended stay.
Nancy is fantastic to work with and we will definitely be coming back next year!
My family and I absolutely loved staying here. The house has everything you could possibly need, and the location is great. We will definitely be back.
We loved our location, close to Town and the beach. The Home was Spacious with pine trees and a park next door. We were Grateful for the backyard jacuzzi and front yard fire pit. All our needs were met. So Happy we could Comfortably Connect!

We had such a lovely time! Walking distance to the beach, shops, bakery, restaurants, everything you could need! Nancy’s home was extremely clean and well set up for everything we needed. Would highly recommend for anyone looking for a clean and cozy place to stay on the Oregon coast.
What an absolutely beautiful and clean beach house!
The house was immaculate and had everything you would need and then some. Communication with the owner was excellent and efficient! We’re looking forward to staying there again!
We loved this beach house! It is a short walk to the beach, roomy and comfortable. It has all the amenities - fire pit, hot tub, fireplace, comfy/beach casual furniture, amazing kitchen. We felt at home from the time we arrived. All of us had a wonderful stay!
Wonderfully appointed, clean and homey property perfect for a brief getaway with our family. Location is quiet but very close to beach and shops. Owner is friendly and communication is great. Thank you😊
Our stay was great. The house was better than we thought and thought it would be great. The house was very comfortable. Beds were comfortable and came completely made. Kitchen came fully stocked with dishes and had many extra Utensils. We would definitely stay again, only longer, and highly recommend.
Lovely few days “away from it all” with our daughter just home from university. Clean, comfy with all you need to feel right at home. Wonderful kitchen and grill for cooking at “home” and walkable to the sand, shops and eateries. Our senior dog enjoyed the park next door & fenced back yard. Close drive to nearby scenic hikes and bonus to soak in the hot tub in the evenings after hiking. Owner is communicative and friendly. Our second time staying @ Nancy’s place and it won’t be our last!

About the host
Hosted by Nancy Cox
I retired from Intel about 8 years and now enjoy my days with my grandchildren and hanging out with my wonderful friends.
Why they chose this property
I literally stumbled upon this property as I drove from a friend's new cabin there. I wasn't even in the market! It was For Sale by Owner so I walked around and looked in all the windows. The house needed some warming up and the yard needed an overhaul but I made an offer quickly as I could see the potential. My family and friends love coming here. The house was originally built in 1949 and then remodeled many time over the years (hence the fun layout). We think it is the perfect place to unwind and enjoy nature.
What makes this property unique
The layout means folks in back 2 rooms can sleep in peace while the rest of the group can make noise in the great room. The outdoor space is amazing and the quick walk to the beach makes it perfect.
