A small family, two traveling couples, or a few close friends will love staying at this charming Florence getaway, which offers easy access to the beach and typical home comforts including free WiFi, cable, and a private washer/dryer. A second-floor balcony provides partial ocean views, as well as a nice place to hang out with your loved ones.

Situated about four miles north of Florence proper in the Heceta Beach community, this home is just across the street from an easy access point to the beach, so you can walk out your front door and be on the sand in minutes. Old Town Florence is a few minutes away by car, as are a casino, two golf courses, and the rest of the town's attractions. Devil's Elbow State Park and the highly photogenic Heceta Head Lighthouse are just a few miles north of this vacation rental, perfect for hiking, fishing, and beachcombing. Stop in at Sea Lion Caves, the country's largest sea caves, to see the animals in their native habitat.

The house itself sits on a heavily wooded lot, which makes the space feel private and secluded. After a long day on the beach, come back to your cozy vacation rental and use the fully equipped kitchen to put together a home-cooked dinner. Relax in the living room while you browse cable channels on the flatscreen TV, or use Roku to stream something on demand. In the evening, head out to the outdoor firepit and roast marshmallows, or hang out on the second-floor balcony and admire distant views of the sun setting over the ocean. Don't forget to take your dog for a walk - your canine companion is more than welcome!

Whatever brings you to Florence, you can't go wrong with a stay at this charming vacation rental. Book today!

Beautiful and peaceful

This pretty little home is located right across the street from the beach with a public access. Quiet neighborhood and the views from the large windows are gorgeous.The house is spotless clean and updated. It has such a warm and welcoming feel. Outside there is a nice deck and fire pit. Includes convenience like laundry and everything provided such as shampoos, detergent etc. I'm do glad we picked this one!

Musty Odor, Old Furniture

The house was well cleaned but has a very strong odor that I will describe as musty and old. It is very off putting and the windows don't have screens, so opening the windows wasn't really an option. You get used to the smell but it will make your clothes smell. The beds don't have box springs and instead have plywood under the mattress. The furniture and decorations are old. The stairs to the upstairs are very steep. The proximity to the beach is a perk! It's just across the road.

Best Beach House

Small beach house only 5 minute walk to the ocean water. Everything you need to cook your own favorite foods just like you do at home. Small dogs are welcome and everything was super clean. Will be my small family's annual go to beach house reservation!

Quiet, comfy and convenient location.

Comfy chairs, beds, pillows in this small space. Perfect for my friend and I to share space. Walk across the street to enter the trail to the ocean. Reasonable price.

We loved this cabin!

So close to the beach. Deeply peaceful. Rustic and charming with all the amenities. Cozy and beautiful. We absolutely adored this little home even in the cold and windy coastal spring weather it was a delight to stay here.

Love this beach house so much! The kitchen is great and loaded with all sorts of cooking stuff, the view from the top bedroom is unreal, and the deck out front is great for reading, eating, hanging out, lounging!

A Beautiful Little house!

This house was so cozy and in a nice area. From the upper deck you could see the ocean, and I could sit there and look at it for hours. I would definitely come back!

Small gem

It was smaller than we anticipated, but very comfortably done. The stairs to the 2nd floor were too steep for us to use & too steep for our dog. We loved it though! Enjoyed our stay very much. The walk to the beach is the best & very accessible. We will rent it again.
