The property was exactly as described. The grounds were well taken care of and beautifully manicured. We did feel like we were retreating from life for a few days as the home and surroundings are so beautiful. Thank you to our host for being so kind, understanding and prompt in any communication that we had with him.

The property was terrific, and the photos don’t do it justice! It’s conveniently close to Cape Lookout, and the house has a very private and secluded feel, even though it’s not too far off the road. It was clean, and the owner was easy to work with.

Family Gathering

This is an amazing property. We have stayed at many different properties from Cannon Beach to Netarts area. This is the nicest and best equipped home we have had the pleasure of staying in. It is great for family get togethers. The kitchen is very well stocked and ready to cook for a family. The beds were wonderful. The yard is amazing, lots of birds, rabbits, and two deer. This is a very quiet, private property.

Great Escape in Nature

We loved staying at Whiskey Creek Retreat! Plenty of room for the 14 of us. James and Greg, the property manager, was great at communicating and answering questions I had about the area. We loved having the forest right in the back yard with a trail. Plenty of room for the kids to play outside. We spent the day at Rockaway beach shopping and playing at the beach.

Lovely stay

The grounds of the property are even more beautiful than the pictures convey, so thank you for taking the time to do such thoughtful landscaping. The house is laid out really well, spacious, and inviting. Cozy fireplaces and a thoughtful kitchen made the house outstanding. Great deck, ample parking, great storage. Internet connectivity was an issue, though the property owner made an attempt to fix it. If you don't need internet, perfect property. My family would happily stay here again.

Great home and location!

The house was big enough for us all and pretty much anything we needed was provided, except for a large pot to cook our crabs. I only took a star off because there is a bug problem in the upstairs southeast room. We slept in it the first night then noticed the issue and closed the door and slept in the living room the other nights.

About the host

Hosted by Jim Fazio

Host profile image
Steve Matiaco of Forest Hills Builders worked in the Forest Grove area and on the coast for twelve years. When he came across this property, the view was what caught his eye. He purchased the property, cleared a portion of it and carefully constructed the home where it would capture the panoramic view of Netarts Bay and the surrounding mountains. In 2013, Jim & Dawn Fazio of Moscow, Idaho, joined Steve as partners and in 2015 became its managers with family friend Greg Sands as the local representative. All love and enjoy the peaceful setting, panoramic views and nearby coastal features.

Why they chose this property

The perfect setting for nature lovers and family activities. Unrivaled as a quiet, peaceful location with large lawn space. Completely private. Special off-season rates for individuals or couples that are not published. Contact owner for information. Excellent parks and beaches within a few miles in both directions.

What makes this property unique

If you are a first-time visitor, you will especially appreciate the notebook in the kitchen. It shares some of the owners' favorite places to visit nearby, complete with detailed directions. There is other information ranging from how to dig clams to who to contact under any circumstance. And enjoy walks on our private nature trail through a mature spruce and hemlock forest. Guide booklets are in the house for your use.
