  We just love ocean escape. A great spot for families as well. The trail through the woods is a nice treat for young ones. All the details are covered with the windproof porch, binoculars to borrow, great movie selection, woodstove and more. The only reason I didnt do all 5 stars for everything is because I like to be pampered with a dishwasher on vacation. Otherwise....all 5 stars!

  A comfortable and private house with a wonderful view. It was a great location for exploring the area. It was sparkling clean and contained all that we needed. Only negative (and a slight one at that) was the broken boards on the deck necessitating ugly yellow caution tape.

  Robert S from Vancouver, WA recommends this vacation rental

  Top notch views of ocean from windows and covered deck made it nice during a period of very inclement weather during our 4 night visit.
  
  Good privacy, and has a trail right off the place which allows for private walks.
  
  Would have given a 5 star rating but there were some maintenance issues. The door lock froze up requiring maintenance to come out to replace, (which they did so promptly and were very courteous). However there are also a number of boards in the front and side decking which have rotted through, and presents a bit of a safety hazard if one is not careful. They need attention/replaced.
  
  That all being said, is very good value when compared to staying at some of the motel lodging in the same area.
  
  Would definitely consider another visit.

  My nephew, my son and I met at Ocean Escapes. We really enjoyed the house and the view. Especially loved the sun porch as the Oregon Coast was experiencing quite the storm--80mph winds, 4 to 6 inches of snow, rain, trees down, power outages, thunder, the whole works. That sun porch got alot of use! We did use the path to the beach when we arrived and found it to be ok. Didn't get out after that because of the weather. I, for one, will be back!

  Our stay at the Ocean Escape house was the perfect vacation. We couldn't have asked for anything better. We loved the secluded feel of the location and the inviting tones of the house itself. Bayshore Rentals was very helpful throughout the whole rental process, and I would absolutely recommend both them and the Ocean Escape house to anybody looking for a trip to the coast without the cold and impersonal hotel room. We cannot wait to go back!

  We loved every moment of our retreat in this wonderful little house. Beautiful views of the ocean could be had without even going outside. And, to get to the beach, a mystical walk through moss covered woods opened up to a very quiet beach where we walked for hours. We will absolutely return.

  Highlights--watching whales spout every eve as th sun set over the Pacific. Great spot! If it were mine, though, I'd get rid of the partially glassed in deck and have the beach house doors just open out directly to the deck, so you'd feel more connected to the sea while inside. And upstairs in that cool little loft, I'd have the windows open--but hey, some of us can't get enough of the sound of the ocean! The place was lovely, however, and a great escape indeed.

  • Manager Responded on 7/31/2011

    It is not advertised that the path to the beach is easy. We would prefer that the guests go to Lost Creek State Park for a safe beach access. We agree, the path to the beach from the house is "tricky".

  The view from the deck is beautiful. We could sit and watch the ocean for hours; and enjoy the sunshine and relax. The place was comfortable for the two of us. It was quiet, and private. A short walk through the forest took us directly to the sandy beach, where we enjoy the beachcombing. Our dog was very happy with all the freedom, running and swimming in the ocean. We had a good time.

  My wife and our two dogs stayed for four nights. The weather was great. The view was incredible. The house was comfortable and clean. It is tucked away in the trees for a feeling of complete isolation even though you are just a few dozen yards to 101. Newport is close enough for quick runs to the store. We had a wonderful time.

  The Ocean Escape is a great place for people who want seclusion. If you like the convenience of town and shopping, I would suggest another in either Waldport or Newport.

  • Manager Responded on 4/22/2011

    We are sorry you don't recommend Ocean Escape. For clarification Ocean Escape is about 5 miles south of Newport and 8 miles north of Waldport.

  Overall the condition of the house was good. I was a little dissapointed as the property was not as secluded as I had hoped and was very close to the freeway. All in all, however, I would stay at Ocean Escape again and recommend it to friends and family.

  My husband and I have travelled to differnet places all over the world. This was without a doubt the most peaceful and relaxing vacation we have ever had. The cottage is a dream come true and the view is amazing. Watch the sunset and the sea lions playing in the surf and maybe you will spot a grey whale!

  Charles C from Meridian, Id recommends this vacation rental

  It was hard to find the driveway for the first time. The cone that marks the driveway should be mentioned in the directions. The house number should be placed on three sides of the address post.
  
  The house was very private and secluded and that was really nice. The house was also incredibly clean.
  
  The wood burning stove was nice but the fumes were somehow escaping onto the covered patio which concerned us.
  
  There were plenty of clean blankets and pillows.
  
  The view from the deck was spectacular!

  One of the few nice places that allows dogs, for sure. However, a few improvements to the amenities would go a long way. Most of the blankets, rugs, futon cover, etc are getting pretty old and well used and seem like an afterthought. We had a one year old who was on everything and updated furnishings would have made us more at ease. It's a nice place and a great location, so a few low cost improvements would go a long way to making future guests that much more happy!

  This was my 8 month old baby's second trip to the beach (the first was when she was 2 weeks old and it was just for an hour...she slept the whole time). Emma shrieked with delight watching our two dogs bound across the beach and splash in the ocean. The little beach house was clean and cozy, and the trail to the beach was fun. My favorite part of the property was the indoor/outdoor deck looking out onto the beautiful Pacific.

  the fireplace is key as the house is cool with only the baseboard heaters. Location is perfect for all activities. Some higher sitting furniture would be perfect inside for cozying up and wacthing the ocean on the cold, rainy moments. Papa son chair and futon sit to low to see outside. Overall a magical place and a perfect cottage for a small family. The upstairs room is fun to play in!
