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.
Our customers tell us they can't get enough of this holiday home's great location. During your stay, you'll be within walking distance of Siletz Bay National Wildlife Refuge. A kitchen and a fireplace are available in the holiday home.
  • The holiday home offers a kitchen, a washing machine and a fireplace
  • Just a 2-minute drive from Siletz Bay National Wildlife Refuge and a few minutes from Alder House Glassblowing

Amazing location, comfy beach house
Everything was as advertised, 5 stars, highly recommend this property! Side Door Cafe & Pelican Brewery are very close and were great. Home was ideal for just the two of us, took walks on the beach every day and enjoyed the ocean sounds all night.

Great little spot
We enjoyed the stay very much. The view was amazing and it was easy to access and check-in was seamless. The only things we needed and didn’t have was pizza cutter, an ice cream scoop and Kleenex - I mean if you’re not crying, eating pizza and ice cream are you even having a girls weekend?! We would definitely stay here again!

Great ocean watching
This was a very clean home, with chairs set up to watch the waves all day. The gas fireplace kept us toasty and we had fun with a vintage (1981 - is that vintage now?!) Trivial Pursuit game. We would have started towels but missed where the soap was available, and we weren't able to sit outside unfortunately (no chairs - although it was pretty windy anyway). Loved being able to just walk down to the beach and enjoy our quiet time together.

Tremendous ocean view
Great escape for my husband and me to celebrate our birthdays. Cottage was immaculate and equipped with everything we needed. Front row seats for wave watching couldn’t have been better, and the gas fireplace kept us cozy. Being in our early 70s the beach access was too tricky, but we drove to easier access and had a lovely walk. Fantastic dinner at Side Door Cafe. We’d definitely like to return!!

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.

Memorial Weekend
It's a beautiful home by the sea. We came to relax and enjoy the waves. We did a lot of cooking and eating, there were enough pots and pans to accommodate us. Next time when we come, I will make sure to bring a scrubbing sponge so that we can properly do dishes. The house was clean and we are happy. I wish the shower curtin was washed or changed. It's old and smells of mildew, but other then that, it was perfect!

Wonderful stay at Kristy's Kottage
My gal pal and I stayed 3 nights at the Kottage and could have not had a better rental! Not only was it very clean, but also so comfy with a fabulous view. It was even better than the photos on the rental site. The kitchen had everything you would need for a great stay and even more. Kristy thought of everything! You could even hear the ocean waves from the bedrooms with no open windows. Although the steps were steep to get to the outdoor balcony, we made it work for our evening drinks to watch the sunset which was spectacular. We only tried the beach access nextdoor once as it was too dangerous after my friend fell even using the rope to repel down to the beach. But no worries, we just walked about 3 blocks to another access which was very easy to navigate. Really, the only items which would make this rental even more spectacular are: kleenex, a hook on the bathroom door for robes and directions on how to operate the 2 remotes. We figured it out on our last night. Highly recommend this rental if you don't want to bring your dog.

Nice Small Beach House
Small beach house with great view of the ocean, literally a stone's throw away. Will be back for this one. Only draw backs were grill and outdoor furniture must have been locked up for winter and no heat in bedrooms and bathroom, learn to get up a couple times a nite and restart 2 hour timer on gas fireplace. Also, adjusting gas fireplace to correct setting took a couple of nites practice.
