About this property

Water Lover's Paradise

Water Lover’s Paradise is a 2,000 SF, 3 bedroom / 3.5 bathroom townhouse located in a quiet community on Spring Lake just 2 blocks from seven miles of beautiful beach, where you will find Rockaway Beach’s majestic Twin Rocks. The name of the home – Water Lover’s Paradise – is truly reflective of the location and amenities available for the perfect vacation. Enjoy the provided kayaks, peddle boat, standup paddle boards, swimming, or fishing on Spring Lake or walking/hanging out on the beach. Lots to do within a 15-20 minute drive from Tillamook to Manzanita and just a couple minutes from Rockaway restaurants and shops!





The spacious floor plan is perfect for multiple families, a large family, or an extended family vacationing together! With excellent amenities and furnishings, the home has everything you will need to enjoy an extended vacation stay or a simple weekend getaway from the city.



The open-concept main level of the home is where you will find a large, very well-supplied kitchen (has everything you will need including toaster, coffee pot/filters and your first morning coffee, Instapot, crock pot, blender, cooking/baking dishes, utensils, salt/pepper, spices, canola oil, and more), great room, master suite, laundry room, and half bath. Stainless Steel appliances and granite countertops grace the well-appointed kitchen. Seating for 6 at the main dining table is augmented by three stools at the bar. The living room includes comfortable seating and a large flat-panel TV. The master suite has a King bed, door to the outside patio, and private bathroom with tub/shower combo.



The excellent outdoor living space accessible from the great room and master suite includes a covered patio, fire pit table, BBQ, and dining table in the fenced backyard. Sit on the back porch for your morning coffee or evening cocktail while firing up the gas Grill.



Upstairs is an open loft area perfect for the young guests; the loft is complete with a play area that includes many toys and more! It’s a true sleepover with a twin-size bunk bed and a toddler-sized bed. The second bedroom is accessed off the loft and includes a queen bed. The loft also has a full bathroom.



Across the short breezeway from the loft is a full Studio Suite with a queen bed, TV, couch, full bathroom, closet, dining table, and kitchenette (sink, refrigerator, microwave, dishwasher, and a coffee pot), topped off by a lake view.



So much fun to be had at the Water Lover’s Paradise, whether it’s hanging out in the backyard, playing games at the large dining room table, watching movies on the large TV, playing in the lake, or hanging out/walking the beach. Hear the surf at night, watch the sunset, and enjoy the ocean air. Bring your fishing rod and gear, fish from shore or from the Kayak's for the trout stocked in Spring Lake.



Not only does the community have 2 docks on the lake (one just steps from the house), it also includes a pavilion on the lake with BBQ that can be used for your group outing.

Very nice property in safe and pleasant surroundings.

We enjoyed the property very much and are considering returning. Easy walk to a very nice ocean beach. The property is close to a small lake so don’t be surprised to find some lake type bugs or bug carcasses here and there. But otherwise a very nice place to stay.

Wonderful house!

This house worked out so well for us! The location was perfect and the house had everything we needed. It was very clean and such a great layout for a family. The younger kids loved the loft area. The garage was also packed with many things to enjoy at the lake and beach. Great communication from the owners. Would love to stay here again!

Cozy, clean, well stocked kitchen

We had a great time with our family. Everything worked. The community is quiet. The kitchen has everything. The bed was comfortable. There were enough dining chairs for the 6 of us. The yard was fenced so that was great for our dog. We have zero complaints.

This was a great property with wonderful hosts! Just steps to the lake with lots of kayaks, paddle boards and even a pedal boat to use, with life jackets to fit everyone. They even arranged for the licenses we needed to use the kayaks and paddle boards before we arrived. The studio suite allowed our young adults to have their own space, which was ideal for us. We couldn't have asked for a better stay!

Everything was great. First time the host actually communicated first. The information in the house was really helpful. Another first. It told us what remote did what.

About the host

Hosted by Dane & Stephanie Winchester

Host profile image
Dane and Stephanie live in Rockaway Beach full-time and enjoy fishing out of Garibaldi on their 24' boat, Game Changer. Before moving to Rockaway full-time several years ago, they spent a lot of time at their beach house in Rockaway Beach. They love sharing this great town and coastal vibe with visitors.

Why they chose this property

The Pansy house is the perfect location, close to the beach and right on the Lake. It offers the best of both worlds, warm water lake for swimming/fishing/kayaking and still just a few minute walk to the beach.

What makes this property unique

Perfect layout for large families or multiple families, but the Lake activities really make Water Lover's Paradise special.
