About this property

The Overlook-Stunning Ocean/Bay View Walk Everywhere!

Whether it's a cozy get away for two or a family retreat, our flexible rates will fit your needs.
The Overlook is nestled into the west facing slope on the edge of Yachats overlooking the Yachats River. It affords an uninterrupted view of the river as it flows into the Pacific Ocean kicking up the surf over a broad tidal beach, spouting horns, and rocky outcrops. This home has it all: the peaceful serenity of ocean views plus easy walking distance to the beach or the bustling center of town. Whether you’re in the mood for dining out, watching a movie, or simply unwinding from your fast paced life, at The Overlook you will find the best of both worlds.

After viewing the spectacular sunset from the wrap around balcony or through the ceiling to floor windows in the living/dining area, you can relax in the comfortable living room, cook in the gourmet kitchen, and watch TV or movies on the 40” High Definition LCD panel TV.

You’ll sleep comfortably in the master bedroom king sized bed. The en-suite bathroom has a jetted tub, separate shower, and large walk-in closet. Downstairs the guest room has a queen sized bed and shares a beautiful bath that includes a large tub with enclosed shower. The 3rd bedroom is set up for the kids with a bunk bed that sleeps 3 and a futon that could sleep 2 more. It has its own 36” TV plus DVD player!

Leave your car in the ample parking and walk two blocks to the local restaurants and shops. You can visit Luna Sea Fish House to buy your fish or dine there. Close by is the Green Salmon where you can have a cup of organic coffee or tea. Across the street is C&K market for all your grocery needs. Yachats has it all: a Sunday Farmer’s Market, an ice cream shop, gourmet wine shop, bakery, fly fishing shop, general mercantile, and more.

It is also an easy walk to both the South Shore Tidal Beach for fun in the sand and the North Shore 804 Trail which follows along the Yachats spectacular rocky coastline. The Yachats community is especially proud of the newly inaugurated Amanda Trail which winds its way south to the top of Cape Perpetua.

Dogs love the beach and are welcome to join you (2 Maximum) at The Overlook. The balcony can be closed off so your pooch can securely lounge in the sun. There is also a kennel in the garage where your dog can sleep comfortably while you are off shopping or beach combing.

We pride ourselves on our cleanliness. All of the bedding is washed after every rental. We take particular care after we have dog visitors. Our cleaning staff takes the extra time to steam clean the flooring plus they find and remove every nose print from the numerous windows!

Come stay with us for comfortable living with a fabulous view and fun exploring the wonderful village of Yachats.

* Reduced rate nights only apply to rentals under a week and does not include holidays or other high usage dates.

We will be back again!

We have stayed here several times for spring break and it never disappoints. The location of this house makes everything fun to do in town, walkable. The view is breathtaking and the house is comfortable for our whole family. We jokingly call this, “our beach house,” because we have stayed here so much, and we will do it again!

Once again, a wonderful stay...

This is our 4th time staying at the Overlook. We still very much appreciate the well-outfitted kitchen, the beautiful view, and the proximity to the Green Salmon, the grocery store, etc. The new chairs in the living are great too!

Overlook was great

Yachats was good. Big storm rolling throughout our stay so we hunkered down, played games, and enjoyed this lovely place. Store and restaurant and coffee shops within walking distance. The view was spectacular. Watching the storm for our 3 days days was dramatic but we felt safe and sound. Coming from Alaska and Montana my family of 8 enjoyed it very much.

Nice relaxing weekend

Great location, pet friendly. My daughter got married in town and had a bigger rental for her spouses family. I rented this for her siblings my partner and I. Smelt a little stale upon arrival but that dissipated with opening the windows. This house is well equipped with anything you could possibly want or need.

Our go-to place in Yachats

This was our second visit, and we'll definitely come back. The house is clean, the kitchen well stocked, the view is fabulous, and the location, near the heart of Yachats, is ideal. We enjoyed beach walks, mushroom forays, and especially the little monsters we saw the night the whole community celebrated Halloween together.

Friend reunion getaway

We gathered in Yachats to relax and catch up. It was a perfect spot where we could walk to the ocean, visit the tide pools and watch the beautiful sunsets. There were plenty of State Parks and cute tourist towns nearby to drive to for things to do. The kitchen and living area was great for cooking and relaxing. The bedrooms were nice, but better set up for a family with kids than all adults. But the beds were comfy and the rooms were quiet. We would recommend this property for a relaxing getaway.

About the host

Hosted by Chris Bobenhausen

Host profile image
We are a family who grew up in Oregon and now are raising the next generation around the country and around the globe. Yachats holds a special place in our hearts with fond memories of family retreats at the beach to reconnect despite the expanding boundaries of our lives.

Why they chose this property

When the opportunity arose to give our family time at the coast a more constant and familiar setting without sacrificing convenience to the town, the best beaches, our favorite hikes, or even giving up privacy, how could we pass that up? Some of us fell for the soaking tub, others for the wide view deck which lends itself to savoring a drink and journaling, a few couldn't pass up the updated and well-styled kitchen. For at least one of us, it's possible that the very short walk to fresh roasted espresso first thing in the morning sealed the deal. Our far-flung members allow plenty of time for us to extend access to our home to other families and groups of friends who appreciate the peaceful vigor of the Oregon beaches and don't presently have a permanent piece of that little heaven for themselves.
