Fish From Your Back Yard! Ocean & Bay View! Hot Tub!

Walk through the house's namesake red front door and be amazed at the magnificent panoramic views of the bay, ocean, bridge and coastal landscape. Red Door House sits on the Alsea Bay at the mouth of the Alsea River where you, your family, and friends will have easy access to crabbing, fishing, clamming, or walking along the quiet beach during low tide. Watch the fishermen and crabbers bobbing in their boats out on the bay or enjoy the bridge and the community on the other side of the bay light up at night. Many coastal adventures await you right in your own back yard.

The Red Door House offers an open great room concept with a deck that invites refreshing breezes, barbecuing and conversation. With the bay right off your back deck, it's easy to settle into this beach home, whether you're staying during a lazy summer day or a magical coastal storm. A cozy wood burning fireplace adds to the enjoyment during those tempestuous winter storms. This home sleeps 8 with four bedrooms which include a master suite upstairs with its own sitting room, a desk for those who want to work remotely, and ensuite bath. With expansive views to the north and west, the pretty Alsea Bay Bridge lights up at night and will lull you to sleep. On the main level is another bedroom with a bath attached and a sliding door that takes you to the hot tub for some relaxation after a day exploring. A separate suite with a kitchenette (perfect for additional privacy) and one more bedroom on the main floor share a bath in the hall.

When the surf and wildlife beckon you to explore, you will have easy access to the bay just a short walk to Keady Wayside. On the bay, wildlife viewing of harbor seals, migratory and non-migratory birds, and other sea life can be found. Enjoy the wonderful Woodland Trail in Waldport when you want to explore and get a glimpse of where the forest meets the sea! Or, put your kayak into the bay and follow a 10-mile route along the Alsea River, Drift Creek and Lint Slough where you might be joined by seals, river otters and lots of birds! Located in the small town of Waldport, whether exploring the antique shops or dining at local restaurants, you can walk to everything from this home!

Wonderful Location Right on Alsea Bay!

House is comfortable, conveniently located, great size and amenities. Only downfall is couches are super cheap and uncomfortable, makes gathering in only common area a back breaker. Otherwise, all was great.

Beautiful weekend at the coast

Beautiful location, very well appointed. Quick to help us with a hot water issue. Enjoyed the sunset from our hot tub. The out of town guests I took over were very impressed with the whole weekend stay which made me happy and proud of our Oregon coast.

Waldport house

Amazing house and view! Easy check in and attentive host. The house had everything we needed and more. The bbq wouldn’t work and we had to broil our steaks, other than that we didn’t have any complaints! We will definitely stay again and recommend to anyone looking for a relaxing house with an amazing view.

Great location, amenities need help

Pros: great location, great sunsets, hot tub Cons: cleanliness-cobwebs in entertainment center, spider on pillow, amenities-no blinds to block afternoon/evening sun, one bed way too soft (one in party couldn't sleep on it), outdoor furniture wet and dirty (unusable), footwash not functional, only 7 dining chairs for our party of 8, one had a broken back, hole in bed blanket, living room couch and chairs very low and soft. Several of these same cons were cited in 2023.
