Bay Window -incredible river views- Old Town- new deck! Stairs.

The Bay Window is a newly renovated, SECOND STORY (stairs) stand-alone apartment facing the majestic Siuslaw River. There are two main king bedrooms (4) guests, and one twin hide-away bedroom-(perfect for one extra guest). We are centrally located in the bustling restaurant and gallery district of Florence, Oregon. Renovations on this historic 1930’s building were complete in February 2022.

Although the Bay Window is a new listing, we also own and operate the VRBO listings: the Little Beach Bungalow, the Tides, and the Dunes. We are very attentive hosts and we’re looking forward to hosting our newest property!!

Be assured that our experienced housekeeping staff (myself included) is going above and beyond to clean ALL touch surfaces (door knobs and cabinet handles, light switches, heating controls, remote controls, etc), with proper sanitizing cleaning supplies, we are rotating from our stored linens complete sets of towels and linens between guests, and are opening doors and windows to allow fresh coastal air to circulate between each stay. We are also providing cleaning supplies and sanitizers for our guest’s person use.

Important: We love our property and our downstairs business neighbor. Please no parties or rambucious behavior.

Go To The Beach or Play Around Town:
This upstairs apartment centrally located to all that Old Town has to offer! It’s 4 miles to the beach, 2 miles from golf and tennis, 12 miles to the Heceta Lighthouse, 1.5 miles to City Lights Theater. There’s a lovely picnic basket on top the fridge for day trips.

We are located in the busy Old Town restaurants & shopping district. Here are some parking tips!

1. I always try for street parking in front of the Bay Window building. If there isn’t anything immediately available, 
2. then I park in front of the gazebo, or double park to unload. 
3. Street spaces open up very frequently, and there are several side streets close to the building. The busiest time in Old Town (Bay Street) is the dinner hour, otherwise parking is generally easy to find close to the front door or on side streets.
4. Parking is readily available in the evenings, but if necessary there is additional parking in the lot in front of the Bodega Food & Wine Parlor. The spaces for First American Title are available after 5pm.

We are currently on a waiting list for reserved parking, but even that is a block away. So I highly recommend parking on Bay Street for the most convenient parking. 

(Re: Early check in - it’s important to pre arrange early check in for two mainreasons.First, to allow our housekeeping staff to work without interruption. Second, our electronic lock system is set up for an after 4pm arrival. The locks will not open for your code before 4pm on check in day. I’m happy to provide free pre arranged early check in whenever it is possible. 🙂)

Come and enjoy the beautiful Oregon Coast

80th celebration with the "girls"
3 "gals" celebrating one of us turning 80 stayed in this wonderful apartment. We each had our own bedroom and bath and the great room was spectacular. What a view. We could walk out our apartment and be right in the center of town. The kitchen was equipped with really nice dishes, glasses and cookware. We enjoy cooking so had two dinners at the lovely table and walked to a special birthday dinner at one of the great restaurants in town. We enjoyed our coffee on the deck in the morning and cocktails on the deck in the evening. Could not have asked for more. The owner was so responsive to us. We were able to get an early check-in which was great after a long drive. Thank you for providing us with some wonderful memories.

FABULOUS, except.....
It was perfect for our girls trip since 3 separate bathrooms. Unfortunately, the seagulls have free rein on the deck, so we didn't spend much time actually sitting out there due to the soiled area. But the wall of glass for viewing was nice. Also, the access stair flight is really long....challenging for anyone with bad knees or asthma. But we knew that, and dealt with it.

First and Best Visit
Five older women looking for a great place to stay while visiting the Oregon Coast from Arizona. We all loved the location, view, and the decor of this beautiful place. We sat outside on the deck each morning and evening enjoying the sights. We shopped and ate in Old Town all within walking distance. The communication was excellent and the treats left appreciated. We all enjoy our morning coffee and we’re thrilled to see Starbucks instead of some cheap coffee brand. We are older so the stairs were a small issue for just one visitor. However, if you’re above a business overlooking the river, there will be stairs. Thank you for all the extras that made our stay special. Loved our visit and your place.

Wonderful in Every Way
This immaculately clean and beautifully decorated condo has been outfitted perfectly: Everything from dreamy beds and bedding, to comfortable seating in the living room, to the amazing section of teas and perfect coffeemaker. Perfect. The view is expansive and lovely, watching the crabbers, fishermen and birds is a wonderful way to enjoy the area from this most cimfirtable “nest”. The host is communicative and responsive. Couldn’t recommend a rental unit more highly.

The property was great. One of the best VRBO stays we have had. The only additional comment is that there are a lot to stairs in this place. 24 steps from the entrance to the first floor. There are also 8 additional steps from the first floor to the top floor where the kitchen and living areas are. The deck and view from it are worth all the stairs if you don't have a problem with stairs.

Better than You Expect
As someone who travels in VRBOs every year I have to say this owners dedication to making you comfortable and have an enjoyable trip is over the top. We had driven for hours and opened the door and thought “Oh my”. Look at all those stairs and all our bags , but within minutes we had our “necessary stuff” upstairs and were taken in by the amazing views and comfortable living area overlooking the Bay. The downtown area is frankly adorable and we experienced three places you must check out. We did high tea at Lovejoys and was fun especially since after that we went to Sandland Adventures and roared through the dunes - it was so fun! We have coffee at the River Roasters it was wonderful. Ate at the waterfront depot - make a reservation and it was delightful. For a sandwich or a great breakfast burrito - Linda did it deli was great ! Strolling from this home is so leisurely and makes the whole package wonderful. On a side note the beds are the best and after going all day felt like climbing into a cloud. Absolutely loved this place and would recommend to anyone coming to Florence.

One of the best places I’ve ever stayed on the coast
I go to the coast a lot and this has to be one of the best places I’ve ever stayed at. The view is perfect, the apartment is clean, comfortable and has just about everything you’ll need (the beds might be too comfortable tbh). And the owner/manager seems incredibly easy to get a hold of (never needed to though). The apartment is split-level with bedrooms on one floor and the living on another and the short stairs have some funky angles that could prove a little challenging if you…let’s say, enjoyed your night too much or have severe joint issues. But even then, not too bad especially as there are only like 10 steps. The only negative has nothing to do with the property itself and something which the owner’s have no control over and that’s parking. Old Town has three hour parking limits on Bay Street and the immediate side streets so if you have more than one car in your party you’ll have to do some creative shuffling and have a little luck on your side. It’s honestly not a deal breaker and not a big deal, but good to know going in if you have an issue with that sort of thing. Overall an absolute gem of a property in a great locale (the Siuslaw River Bridge is my favorite of the coastal bridges so seeing it every day was a cherry on top of a great stay). Thanks!
