ocean access

Great ocean access even though we didn't use it (too windy and hail). Multiple beds and bedrooms, nice bath and kitchen. Nice place to relax at the coast. Not that far a drive to town.

A cute and cozy cottage!

We very much enjoyed our stay at Blue Bird Cottage. The location, beach access and views were perfect. The cottage itself was quaint and comfortable, providing us with adequate amenities for our stay and we look forward to renting it again in the (near) future. The fenced front yard was great for the little pups and the deck overlooking the beach was lovely. We rate the management company, Ocean Odyssey Beach Rentals with an A as they have excellent communication and were extremely pleasant and helpful when we had questions. My only negative was having to pack up and go home.

Spring Break Getaway

We had an amazing time at this property. We three adults, one tween and baby. Oh and our dogs! It was the perfect space. I would recommend it for a couple getaway or family of 4. I chose the property for the enclosed front area and beach access for the dogs:) The deck in the back and the stairs to the beach were great! So easy to manage and a hose placed perfectly to wash off the sand from humans and dogs before you go back up! Are there some quirks - yes but it’s an older, quaint beach cottage ON the beach, not sure how one could complain. I loved our time there and we will definitely be booking the cottage again!

A safe harbor in the storm!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We booked the Blue Bird Cottage for a weekend on the coast. It rained and the winds blew all weekend but we felt safe and cozy in the cottage. We enjoyed bundling up and watching the raging surf from the warmth and safety of the living room. The beds were very comfortable and we had all the amenities we needed for a lovely, very relaxing time. The neighborhood was quaint and felt safe. it was near the highway but the sounds of cars were minimal. The location was perfect for going to Yachats or Walport quickly. I would most definitely stay here again. Hopefully next time during a sunny warm weekend!

We'll keep coming back

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We've been enjoying the BB cottage for a number of years now, spending many a relaxing time with our dog in both winter and summer. Over the years, it's only gotten better, with an updated bathroom, improved furniture, new fireplace, etc. It's small and old, but clean and comfy. We will continue to return to this darling cottage.

Idyllic Beach House Experience

Right on the beach and we almost had the whole beach to ourselves most of the time. The comfortable cozy house had everything we needed and was a short drive to town for the essentials. A perfect place to experience the Oregon coast.

Superb surf views

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This spotlessly clean cottage has great views of the waves rolling in over the expansive beach. The kitchen has everything you need to make your meals in, and avoid the considerable expense of eating out, but there are plenty of options reasonably close by should you choose to splurge. Every bed has a wake-up view of the surf and sky. The shower is wonderful, and large enough for two. Katy in the office was very quick to respond to any of our questions and concerns. We love the Oregon coast, and would certainly return to this property. For location and amenities (and reasonable price, at least during the time we stayed) this was pretty close to the top of our all-time list.

Love this home

This was our second stay and we now call it our home away from home. It’s a cozy little house with a beautiful deck to watch the waves. Each room has a fantastic view of the ocean. Both times the place was clean and ready to live in for a week or extended weekend. Room downstairs has a very comfortable memory foam bed. Cozy tv area and kitchen essentials were available. Can’t wait to book our next stay! Thank you ❤️

Darling Cottage

This little place is just lovely. Easy beach access, down about 15 steps and then you are on the beach!! Between Waldport and Yahats which both have lots of little shops to explore. Definitely plan on returning.

Surf and Chill

The cottage was well laid out and very cute. The beach theme was evident in every room with cute trinkets and ocean colors. It was close to town but had the feel of an isolated cottage with a wonderful beach area. The atmosphere was relaxing and the sound of the waves mixed with the sea air, worked it's magic.

Quirky beach cottage in a perfect location

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Blue Bird Cottage is perfectly located just north of Yachats with private steps right down to the immense beach with miles of walkability. It was impecably clean despite being a bit dated, but did have a wonderfully updated new shower. The layout of this cute little cottage is quirky though for sure; despite having 3 different sleeping areas and a living room, there was no place to curl up with a cup of tea or a good book that had a view of the ocean. The cottage definitely has direct views of the ocean, but the way it is structured makes it impossible to arrange the furniture to take advantage of them. This would not have been an issue in warmer weather, but in the winter it would have been nice. I can see how the deck would be amazing in warmer weather as well, and would give it another try maybe in the summer next time.

Weekend of September

Quiet time with my dog. House is very cute. Easy access to beach. Great beach for dogs. Not heavily populated. Only problem was main bed was not changed. When I brought it up manager was very happy to offer me a credit. Lovely spot and I will return.

Blue bird cottage

So we really enjoyed our stay at this cottage. Quite comfortable and right on the beach. Set up is a little odd. The stairs to the second level are “skinny”. Maybe to skinny for most people. And they have ants. If it was my cottage I would get it sprayed monthly instead of placing ant catchers all around.
