About this property

Beach Front Any Closer to the Ocean and You'd Need a Wetsuit - Whales Watch

Whales Watch is a one bedroom, 1000 square foot beach front duplex just steps from the beach! Walk out the sliding glass door, and right on to the beach. Sitting at the furthest point out on Heceta Beach, it has sweeping ocean views from the Siuslaw River Jetty to the Heceta Head Lighthouse. Perfect for watching Whales, Bald Eagles, Osprey, Pelicans, Sea Lions and other assorted wildlife. If it we're any closer to the ocean you'd need a wetsuit. The ocean breeze beckons you to sit on the patio and soak in the view!

The spacious bedroom has a king size bed with Mediterranean Oak furniture a sitting area and it's own door to the bathroom. It also has an electric fireplace. The living room, kitchen and dining area is one large room right on the beach. There is a large hallway and utility room separating the two, with another entrance to the bathroom. The living room is furnished with comfortable overstuffed slipcovered furniture and a mix of Antiques & Rattan. The love seat turns into a twin hide-a-bed. With a dining room table for 4, and a 2 person bar there's always a place to eat and enjoy the view. Electric Faux Fireplace adds to the ambiance. The kitchen is well stocked with everything from wine glasses, blender, crock pot, microwave, bread maker, electric range, dishwasher, refrigerator & even a turkey roasting pan.

The owners parents were at one time, 'world travelers', so the furniture comes from around the world, and so do the Original Fine Art oil paintings. The 1902 Bush & Gertz Cabinet Grand (upright) Piano is tuned & ready to have it's ivory's tickled. We've even thrown in some sheet music, but if you have a favorite bring it along.

Loved it!!
Perfect vacation getaway. This was a little home away from home with so many extras included. Fully stocked kitchen, from waffle maker to blender and ice in the freezer. Washer, dryer, extra linens and blanket to ensure a cozy stay. We were right on the beach and could hear the ocean while fixing dinner then went down to put our toes in the sand with the chairs they provided! I have told family and friends about this place and will be visiting again!
