This spectacular oceanfront home has a wonderful historic style, a dog-friendly attitude, amazing location on a clifftop in Depoe Bay, and some of the best whale-watching opportunities you could hope to find! Combined with all the comforts of home and enough space for as many as eight guests, this is the perfect place to plan your next coastal vacation.

Nestled on a hill just on the south side of Depoe Bay, this home is close to the town's charming restaurants, souvenir shops, Whale Watching Center, and the world's smallest bay. From the harbor you can launch your own boat or book a spot on one of the whale-watching or deep-sea fishing tours that leave from Depoe Bay. The easiest beach access is less than five minutes north by car at Fogarty Creek, though you could also drive 10 minutes south to the breathtaking Devils Punch Bowl or north 10 minutes to Lincoln Beach and Gleneden Beach. You could even go a little farther north (about 15 minutes) into Lincoln City or take an equally short drive south into Newport.

With three bedrooms and two bathrooms, this home has plenty of space for up to eight guests (six adults maximum, please), and up to two dogs are even welcome with a small nightly fee. Inside, you will find antiques that complement the historic style of this 1930's house, as well as plenty of windows that allow gorgeous views of the ocean - look carefully and you can see harbor seals, sea lions, and even an occasional whale!

The main level of the house has a cozy living room with a TV and gas fireplace, a well-stocked full kitchen, a dining area, and a bathroom with a laundry area. One of the bedrooms is also on this level (featuring a queen-size bed) and a sofabed in the living room folds out into extra sleeping space at night.

Upstairs are two more bedrooms and a bathroom with a walk-in shower that is accessible both from the hallway and the master bedroom. The first bedroom offers a soft and comfortable queen-size bed, a television, and a lovely balcony that overlooks the town and the ocean. In the master room is a king-size bed, yet another TV, and windows with jaw-dropping views of the sea. If the weather doesn't cooperate as much as you had hoped, you can always enjoy a nice evening in and take advantage of the many entertainment options provided, including cable TV, a DVD player and selection of movies, WiFi access, board games, and a huge variety of books.

This home is a fantastic place to bring your friends or family and enjoy a vacation spent watching for whales, strolling around charming Depoe Bay, and enjoying each other's company. In the small town you will find just about everything you may need, though you could also drive up or down the coast to find more activities, state parks, dining options, and much more, so don't be afraid to explore!

Come stay in this amazing oceanfront home and enjoy a much-deserved relaxing coastal getaway!

We loved this home. The view is spectacular. The location--walking distance to Depoe Bay--is great. The furnishings are very nice. The back deck is an amazing place to spend time, even in the winter! We will definitely return.

Great views but lackluster property
What a beautiful view and great location. It has so much potential to be a 5 star experience. It was a clean place, but many things were out of service including the fireplace, washing machine, broken blinds, missing curtains, floor boards coming up, and an ant problem. With an extended 5 day stay we had counted on being able to do laundry, it would behoove the host to be transparent about the status of the home. It was a great location and the views are incredible, a great outdoor viewing area. I would not stay in this specific spot again, the host was communicative and did give us a small compensation (8% percent of the total cost). Yet the host was unable to mitigate or fix anything during the stay. If you are looking for a cabin like experience that is cozy this home is up your alley. Overall, it could use some TLC yet I understand why owners wouldn’t want to invest in a short term rental property.

Beautiful VIews
We enjoyed our stay very much. Kitchen is a bit small but adequate for our needs. If you're cooking, bring your own storage containers, foil and saran wrap. We made due with one roll of paper towels. Bring your own spices. View is phenomenal, and all bedrooms have an ocean view. We experienced a sugar ant invasion in the upstairs and downstairs southern bedrooms, which was gross. Downstairs tub and kitchen sink drip. There are stairs that must be climbed to access the front door. Except for deck area, outside not well maintained but may be time of year with winter storms just in rearview mirror: long grass/weeds, dead tree in pot, broken statuary, siding missing in back, debris on front patio and path. Furniture is an eclectic mix, some with obvious wear and tear but home was comfortable (please note, due to its height, the King bed needs limber folks to climb in). We had fun playing games, sharing meals and exploring the area. Fenced backyard for dogs is great but our little dog enjoys a good safari, and she found her way under the deck. Being completely honest, could due with a little refresh but somewhat expected due to price and age of home.

Great views and wonderful for dogs.
An amazing place for a great price. Perfect for small to medium dogs. Yard is small but very well fenced. Beautiful views. Beds are comfy with plenty of spare blankets. The upstairs bathroom is wonderful and there are lots of fluffy towels. My one hope is that the downstairs bathroom gets some loving soon. Plenty of dishes for cooking and eating. We had a wonderful time and plan on coming back to this property in the Fall.

The location and views are amazing. The daily sounds of the ocean and the bird life make this a relaxing place to just sit on the deck and sip on a cocktail while taking in the spectacular Oregon coastline. The home is decorated quaint and old fashioned (vintage decor). The kitchen amenities and conditions of some parts of the home could use some additional attention and TLC but the management and owners have been made aware. They were responsive and apologized for any inconvenience. We still had a wonderful stay because of the location and we would highly recommend the home as long as people understand it is not "pristine."

Great views
The location is perfect but the house has seen better days. The furnishings need to be updated. You need to be 6’ tall to use the king bed. It is an old waterbed somebody put a regular mattress in and is so far off the floor I needed a step stool. The downstairs tub has had a water leak for so long it has worn all the enamel off the tub. The dishwasher doesn’t even get itself clean. The linens are old and thin. But having said all that, the view and location are wonderful. Maybe look at a house on either side.

Unique house. Great location
We were charmed by the very eclectic house once we got up the ton of stairs with our luggage. ( We knew about that so it was fine) The location was really nice. Very close to town. Right on the water. Everything we needed was there. There were a couple things that were a bit substandard like the propane grill was all rusty, a few of the blinds were kind of hodge podge and the one in the upstairs bedroom was the wrong type for a siding glass door and someone had trouble with it in the past and was all messed up. The kitchen is very small but we made it work. The view fantastic. Beautiful sunsets ever night. We enjoyed ourselves and the property

Whale Vista House
Our first stay in Depot Bay. Could not have asked for a more beautiful view point, to celebrate our birthdays. Home decor was very inviting and warm and cozy. Loved the antiques. The master bedroom was spacious and a comfortable king bed. It was fun watching the boats come into the harbor at 20 knots! The sunsets were amazing! We were luck to have 2 sunny, 50 degree days in December to boot! The final night was stormy enough to hear the waves really crash beneath the home, with the wind howling! Definitely worth checking this home out. Don’t forget to visit Tidel Waves for an excellent meal
