Ocean in Front, Lake in Back, Dog-Friendly, Dock with Kayak & Rowboat

Your new favorite vacation rental is just across the street from the sand on the delightfully isolated Cape Meares spit. The home has expansive views from every window. The Pacific In front, Cape Meares Lake and the coastal range in back. Watch the sun and colors and clouds changing as the day meanders along.

Venture out the front door for a beach walk or launch the tandem kayak from the backyard. You may see Elk, Bald Eagles, Great Blue Herons, Osprey and more. The area is rich in history, flora and fauna. When you tire of the great outdoors, put a log on the fire, nestle up and enjoy the “modern rustic” ambiance inside. Read about the nearby town that fell into the sea, (the book’s at the house) and enjoy the distraction of the landscape. Storm watching is great as the clouds roll off the ocean, under the house, and resurface on the lake.

The house features a Great Room (kitchen & living), large deck with grill, wood stove (with free firewood), laundry washer & dryer, 2 bedrooms with 1 queen size bed in each, and 1 bath. The expansive sofa easily converts into 2 twin-sized beds and comfortably sleeps 2. House sleeps 6 total. Free WIFI Internet. No landline phone or television.

The kitchen is fully stocked (we cook alot) with a microwave, dishwasher, coffee maker, blender and all basic amenities. We have extra bedding, games for the kids, and all you need for a comfortable getaway. You will NOT find a tv. Bring your laptops for that. We recommend you arrive with food in hand, as the nearest grocery is a 15-minute drive to the Tillamook Safeway.

We're happy to accommodate early check-in and late check-out when available.

Dogs are allowed with a non-refundable $65 deposit. We even have dishes for Fido. Please note: There is a 2 dog max and we request the pups mind their manners and wipe their paws.

Book now to ensure your crew’s escape to the edge of the wilds, and one of Oregon’s hidden treasures.

Lovely!
House was clean and comfortable. The kitchen well stocked with various dishes and cookware. Having the lake behind the house was an absolute delight! We always come to Oregon to enjoy the ocean, but having the wildlife from the lake was an incredible treat! ’Listening to the birds come alive each morning became something we looked forward to. The little river otter was so fun to watch Swim around the docks. The location is so private yet close to grocery stores and anything you’d want to do in the 3 capes loop and tillamook area. We will return to this house!

Perfect little getaway spot
This was the perfect location for a relaxing weekend. My husband, 6 year old, and I had a lovely time playing on the beach, sitting on the dock watching birds, and playing board games in the house. We wil be coming back!

Perfect quiet beach getaway
The location is so amazing — fronting the lake and one house in from beach access. It’s a quiet and private neighborhood with really great vacation vibes. It was really great to be in a home where the only thing we needed to bring was food. Definitely recommend The Last Resort and looking forward to renting again!

Property not ready when arrived
When we arrived, property wasn’t cleaned. Both bed rooms weren’t made, no towels, leftover food from previous visitor in a fridge with dirty spills, dust on floor. We had to vacuum, make beds, washed fridge, thrown out leftovers etc. Management was helpful. Start of our visit was ruined due to such unexpected state of property, rest of our stay was ok. Excellent location and enjoyed beautiful beaches.

Birder’s Paradise
For Mother’s Day we came out to this beautiful little house for the weekend and had a fabulous time. It’s tucked in between the estuary and ocean and has absolutely incredible views! The backside of the house is up against the estuary and your son to sleep by the frogs. The front side has great views of the ocean and sound of the waves. The house itself is small and very clean. Was perfect for myself, my friend, and our two kids. Use of the kayak and the dock was great. We also brought two SUPS and went out on the water every day. Can’t wait to stay here again!

Stunning views, perfect for nature lovers
We stayed here for our nature loving daughter's 11th birthday. Tons of bird sightings as well as deer and other critters. We loved it that there were no TVs - we all actually felt unplugged, and played games together as a family and enjoyed staring into nature from 3 sides of the house. Everyone seemed comfy in the beds for sleeping. Will definitely look at availability again in the future!

A gem in Cape Meares
We love this little house. We stay in Cape Meares at least a few times a year and this is our favorite spot. You can't beat the view and access to the beach, it is well-appointed and comfortable, and the enclosed deck is a bonus for anyone traveling with a dog who likes to sunbathe.

Wonderful winter getaway!
Our favorite place on the coast!! Amazing views of the ocean and lake, wildlife galore, hiking the beach, bay and forests and so on and so forth. It was especially fun this trip during the storms---toasty warm inside while watching the huge waves, wind, rain and hail.

The Perfect Holiday Getaway For All Ages
The Last Resort was the perfect location for our family to escape the craziness of the holidays and spend time making new memories. The house was cozy and well-stocked; I can't think of a thing we needed we couldn't find. You couldn't ask for more epic views. If we had this much fun in the dead of winter with the rain and the early sunsets, we can only imagine how magical it must be in summer. We hope to be back!

My husband and I rented this property to celebrate our birthdays. Our two sons came to visit for a day each (too short but life happens). Weather started out wet and cold but ended up sunny and warm. The birds in the area are diverse and vocal. We had a lovely, rustic, sand-filled, bird-serenaded stay.
