Modern Dog-Friendly Cottage in a Great Location - Minutes to Downtown & Beach

Starfish 2

Our calendar is updated in real-time & our nightly rates are accurately displayed. Simply enter your desired dates and click 'Book Now!'

A romantic getaway or a quick weekend trip starts at this charming Rockaway Beach cottage in this complex. This 350 sq ft cabin is cozy, comfortable, and conveniently close to shopping and dining, not to mention the beach. And the best part? It's dog-friendly, so you can bring along the medium-size family pooch - no need to find a dog sitter! Note that there is no yard, but there is a shared common area.

The main commercial district of Rockaway Beach is less than a block away from this home and features a range of restaurants, cafes, and shops. The beach itself is just across the street, so you can walk out of your back door and have your toes in the sand in mere minutes. Jetty Fishery and Marina is a little more than three miles north, and you're surrounded in every direction by opportunities to hike, kayak, canoe, fish, and otherwise spend time enjoying the great outdoors.

Bright and welcoming, this home is ready to welcome you after a long day of traveling or exploring the area. Kick back and relax on the futon while you browse the cable channels on the flatscreen TV, or enjoy a quick meal on the picnic table outside. The kitchen, though compact, is perfectly suited to preparing a tasty dinner, with a mini-fridge, a stove, a microwave, and a toaster. This home is also dog-friendly! (One dog max - please note an additional nightly pet fee and a weight limit of 40 pounds applies.)

Okay, Could be better
Home was less than we expected. It worked for two people over a weekend just needing a place to sleep. Not enough dishes if you’re planning to cook and eat in. An overwhelming aroma of thrift store in the unit, bring a candle. I would come again.

Great location, acceptable accommodations. Wonderful sleepy beach town.
Loved the location and the town. The Starfish 2 is outdated and minimally updated. The place had poor ventilation, and terrible flooring. Broken and sticky tile floor that had most of the grout missing or in disrepair. I liked the full kitchen, stove, and kitchen wares. We put it to use. DVD player was present, but no way to hook it up to the TV (needs an RCA cable). Slow internet, and paper-thin walls. Loved the town though and the proximity to the beach and shops. Awesome ride on the Scenic Railroad, and an easy drive to the Tillamook Cheese Factory.

Strange layout and false claims
This place does not have 2 beds as advertised. It has one bed and a couch. The "living room" area had no TV. The only TV was in the bedroom. Which is fine for some trips. But on a "bro time" weekend fishing trip, watching the final four would have been much more comfortable from the couch rather than a bed! The kitchen was nice. Plenty of dishware and cooking utensils etc. There was also some kind of stain (looked like urine from an animal) on the curtains in the bedroom. All in all not great. But it was the least expensive so I guess you get what you pay for!

Christmas stay
I rented out a home to be able to have a special Christmas with my daughter. Once we FINALLY got inside. We brought our things inside and had to wipe the couch down because it was sticky and full of crumbs. Was told it had a full kitchen. When im told full kitchen I expect to have bowls, mixing bowls, baking pans, muffin tin, ect. Bought alot of food for a Christmas dinner and treats and was not able to make most of it. Went to the store and bought plastic cups. Had to wash all dishes before using. Everything was filthy. I wiped up a spill on floor and the napkin was black filth. Would never let myself of my child lay on any of the floors. Towels were dingy looking. While sitting on couch grab a blanket because the draft from the door is very chilly. Bed was okay. Wasnt expecting it to be againt the wall. Stains on carpet. I understand the home is older but doesnt mean it cant be kept up a little more. Definitely would not stay here again.

Not what was expected
Exterior courtyard long past due for maintenance. Rental interior clean except bedroom carpet which was stained and needs to be replaced. Bathroom floor tile cracked. And shower handle close to falling off. Kitchen sink hot water valve under sink turned off. And no drain stoppers for both sinks. Giving this place 3 stars is being generous

OK for beach house.
Had difficulty with lockbox. People in unit next to us had same problem. Picture showed TV in living area but it was in bedroom which as an “older” couple didn’t fit our needs. Thankfully we had an IPad, although Wi-Fi was slow at times. Biggest complaint was that the kitchen only had 3 forks, 1 teaspoon, 1 tablespoon, 1 ice tea spoon, 2 knives. 2 bowls and 2 coffee mugs. This unit was advertised for 4 people. Would we stay here again? Probably not.

Comfortable Stay
We had some minor issues with the property, but they were quickly resolved by the property manager. The property manager was kind and attentive to our needs. It was comfortable for two people, but would’ve been crowded with four. Refrigerator was small but adequate and kept things cold. Towards the back of the refrigerator things froze. I’m not sure what setting it was on. The bed was comfortable. The towels were very plush

It’s okay
It’s not luxurious, but it is a block from the beach and it’s affordable. This unit is in a weird little complex with multiple other units, all of which have paper thin walls and some of which allow dogs. Your dog may meet up with a mean dog belonging to another guest. There are two key boxes and the instructions on how to enter the unit don’t specify which one to use. The unit is super cold and impossible to warm up. The shower is teensy and dark. Everything looks way dingier in real life than it does in the online listing. Honestly, the only benefits are that it’s clean and close to the water. I plan to spend a little more and get a different listing next time.

Uncomfortable furniture
What is it with uncomfortable leather counches? I know this was also a futon and yet as uncomfortable as it was to sit on, I can't imagine sleeping on it. The bed....going for Princess and the Pea? It was so high I had to roll onto it. Overall very clean, but the furniture was lacking imo.

Cozy little cottage with all the basics and close to beach. Looked like everything was freshly painted and clean. I would recommend bringing warm slippers in fall/winter because those floors are like ice! But it was nice for a quick getaway.

Cozy and Clean
This property was exactly as expected and advertised. The exterior looks older, but charming nonetheless. The interior was sparkling clean and it covered all of our bases for amenities. It was roughly a block from the coast as well as from downtown. It was a great stay for the two of us, highly recommend.

Quaint, Functional
We had a lovely stay, it was cute and had all the basic amenities necessary. The bedroom smelt strongly of a dog when we arrived but nothing air freshener spray couldn’t fix. Perfect location a block away from the beach and right in town. The only request would have been having the option to recycle. Would stay here again!

Right by the Beach
The main drag is right outside the door and the beach is just it back. It is a perfect place to stay, especially if you have a dog with you. I’m so glad to have found this location and would stay there again! Clean, easy to find, and all you could possibly want in this beautiful area!
