BATHROOM & SHOWER Your private bathroom features a large tiled shower, endless hot water, loads of extra towels and a few travel necessities such as feminine products, toothpaste, dental floss. There is even a small sewing kit - which saved a bride's dress one fine day!
ROBES & SLIPPERS In the morning put on one of the freshly laundered robes with slippers provided by your hosts and relax into your day.
KITCHENETTE The suite has a a mini-refrigerator, a toaster and a microwave, along with a pour-over coffee making system. A hot plate is available to warm up soup, cook eggs and such - but no aromatic foods please like bacon or fish. That is because the kitchenette does not have an exhaust vent for cooking odors.
COFFE, TEAS & MORE The cupboards are stocked with great coffee and a large selection of top quality teas, plus makings for hot cocoa and hot cereals plus a few individually sized cold cereals. A few fun snack treats are also provided, along with juices, small bottled waters, half-n-half milkette creamers (single serving half-n-half's) for your coffee or tea, with an ice tray in the freezer section.

LIBRARY / LIVING ROOM The big and comfortable library (central living room) is shared with other guests. It has a coffee table, couches and big, comfortable chairs for reading and relaxation. You'll also find a few yoga mats available in a cabinet if needed. There are a lot of books for children of all ages plus a wide variety of thought-provoking books for adults, such as "The Four Agreements" and "The Power of Now". It also has a few history books and many of the classics.
CONNECT WITH NATURE There is no TV so in the morning plan to relax, read or take your coffee out to sit in one of the comfortable outdoor seating areas and enjoy the breathtaking views. Or you might want to consider exploring local beaches, seeing the redwoods or connecting with any of the many other outdoor adventures we'll tell you about when you book your stay.
BEACH ACCESS We're located on a cliff directly above the beach with no current access down the side of the cliff to the beach below, but it is just a two minute drive to BEACH-LEVEL PARKING at Harris Beach State Park.
SOUTH HARRIS BEACH South Harris Beach, which is one of the best ocean beaches on the Oregon coast, is even closer; it is just a ten minute walk or a one minute drive to get there. And it almost never has people on it because you have to walk down the side of a cliff on a paved path to get to it, and because very few tourists know about it.
LONE RANCH BEACH Lone Ranch Beach with lots of tide pools with starfish and other sea life is a four minute drive north.
HARBOR BEACH The magnificent driftwood covered beach at the harbor is just five minutes south.
SECRET BEACH Secret Beach is wild and scenic and it's just a quick 10 or 12 minute drive north on US Highway 101.
WHALE WATCHING Resident gray whales can be seen all year but they are more frequently spotted in the summer and fall when they feed closer to shore. We also have thousands more migrating whales along the Oregon coast every year, going south, between mid-December & mid-January and they start returning up the Oregon toward to Alaska every year in between late March and June.
REDWOOD NATURE TRAIL Walking under the canopy of a redwood forest is like being in a natural cathedral. The mile long and quite walkable Redwood Nature Trail is just 9 miles away. And world famous Jedediah Smith Redwoods Park is just 22 miles south on US Highway 101.
WILD RIVERS The Chetco River, with some of the best salmon runs in the world plus a lot of trout and steelhead, runs right through Brookings. And the cold waters of the Smith River, just a few miles south of Brookings, also has plenty of fish, especially salmon and trout.
OCEAN FISHING Thee are well over a dozen ocean charter fishing companies and fishing guides available in the harbor just two miles south of our property.

ABOUT YOUR HOSTS – by Barbara
Patrick & I were (and still are!) grateful & amazed at the good fortune that came our way when we acquired two 'diamond in the rough' coastal properties on the Southern Oregon coast that are right next to each other. They sit side-by-side on just over two cliffside acres overlooking the vast Pacific Ocean.
We did not plan on being vacation rental hosts - it just sort of happened - but we are glad it did because we are always delighted to share these amazing properties with our guests.
I had recently retired from a job in the medical field and Patrick had sold his large real estate office when, in March of 2019, we found the coastal property we now live in while on a road trip through Southern Oregon.
The house that is now our home had been on the market 5 years as part of an estate sale & it needed a lot of work, but we loved it the moment we saw it. **We made the best offer we could afford and our offer was accepted! The separate guesthouse that came with it became our first vacation rental .
Then in 2022 our elderly & very kind next-door neighbor, a widower, decided to move to Portland to be with family. His circa 1950 house also needed a lot of work. We were experienced hosts at that point and we knew the location and layout were absolutely perfect for another vacation rental . So Patrick worked out a deal with the owner and we bought it. Then we put in granite counter tops, tiled showers, redwood decks, heated floors, bigger windows and much more.
Our objective was to create a magical space where people can come to relax in quiet comfort with lots of privacy & stunning ocean views. It worked out perfectly and now we love sharing these amazing side-by-side properties with our guests!
Thank you for considering a stay with us while in Brookings. Patrick and I wish you safe travels and an enjoyable visit.
Sincerely, Barbara :)
