Wave watching at it's best

Beachfront home in Gleneden Beach (quite stretch of beach 1 mile South of Lincoln City). This sweet, shingled cottage puts the ocean front and center, with an elevated, panoramic view from every window of the great room. You’ll find it easy to kick back and relax in the plush living room complete with wall-mounted flat screen TV/DVD/Blu-ray, gas fireplace and the ever-present sound of surf. You’ll enjoy watching for whales from the dining table and seeing pelicans and other seabirds glide past as you do the dishes in the fully equipped kitchen. Even the laundry room has a fantastic ocean view! The two queen bedrooms are on the quieter eastern side of the home. You’ll love the sunny, private courtyard entryway, and the western deck is transparent but wind-screened, with dining furniture and Adirondack chairs. The access to beautiful Gleneden Beach is right next to the driveway, so you can wave to your guests from the porch as they run down to the water. Gleneden Beach puts you between Lincoln City and Depoe Bay and Newport for some wonderful day trips, but you may just enjoy walking along the ocean’s edge and exploring the town of Gleneden Beach. Golf and a world-class spa are nearby at Salishan, a coffee-house/wine bar called the Red Roof and delicious dining at the Side Door Cafe. Come fill your eyes and spirit with the beauty of Gleneden Beach with a stay at Kristy’s Kottage! We work extra hard to sanitize every surface and have contact-less check in.

Please avoid leaving a single night gap during Spring Break.

Lovely experience
The house was snug and cozy with charming decor and a delightful lighthouse motif. The view from the living room windows is immersive and provides absolutely stunning sunsets (weather permitting). The sofa, chairs and ottoman were very relaxing and the gas fireplace made the room warm and comfortable. The beds were quite comfortable and the kitchen was well-stocked for our needs. We certainly enjoyed the nearby restaurants, such as The Side Door Cafe, Tidal Raves, and the Otis Cafe. The beach was just steps away and was enjoyable for strolls in the morning and evening. Also, we had a great time one afternoon hiking the God's Thumb trail. The neighborhood was very quiet and secluded. The communication with our host was clear and informative. We would love to stay here again.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We had the BEST time at Kristy's Kottage! We watched seals from the living room windows and walked down to the beach every day since access was just steps away. It was often uncrowded and felt like our own private beach. The view was amazing and the option to open every seaside window was wonderful. This house has everything you need for a fantastic vacation and the location can't be beat.

Wonderful Beach Cottage
Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This is the second time my wife and I have stayed here and we highly recommend Kristy's Kottage! It’s a perfect location for relaxing and enjoying the fantastic ocean views from the living area and deck! There is also a nice deck on the front of the cottage that’s a perfect place to enjoy the sunrise and your morning beverage of choice. The cottage is clean, comfortable, and well-stocked with everything you need. If you tire of the beautiful views and the beach, Lincoln City, Depoe Bay, and Newport are close by.
