Our beautiful home sits on a cliff 80 feet above the shoreline. At low tide there are many rocks and a large beach. But even at high tide Pelican Rock stands above the water. There is no direct access to the beach from the house but it is only 9 tenths of a mile to Sport Heaven Beach, about a 20 minute walk or a short drive. Sport Heaven Beach has miles of sandy beach and there are many other beautiful beaches in the area. The house is 4 miles from the center of Brookings and 1 mile to the Harbor. At the harbor there are great restaurants, fishing charters and a great boardwalk overlooking the boats. Come and enjoy amazing sunrises and sunsets. We have lived in Brookings for three years now and love it year round. We live in our home just 4 miles away with our three small dogs. We hope to see you soon. Please no trailers. Our driveway does not allow for turning around a trailer. There is a video camera above the garage door that monitors the driveway. Please stay off the neighbors property and stairs to the beach

Comfortable beach retreat
We stayed during a crazy storm on the coast, but were very cozy in this lovely house. Kitchen was very useful for dining in and we enjoyed board games & movie nights. The view of the stormy ocean was very cool and our little pug loved the fenced in yard.

Frugal tiny choice with a great view
Great view of the ocean. Tiny but fully functional older house. The 2 car garage is great. The owner should spend the to rebuild the inaccessible stairs that used to go down to the beach. The owner should also spend to buy comfortable furniture - the existing couch cushions collapse under the weight of sitting. The 2nd bedroom lower bunk mattress is unusable. Owner was fantastic about communicating every day. He dropped off the garage door opener, and suggested the general area where to get crab at the wharf. I am used to more upscale vacation rentals - I would call this house extremely basic.
This was my favorite beach house ever! The location provides a stunning ocean view and the fenced yard was perfect for our needs traveling with a senior dog. Every detail in the house has been designed for the comfort and ease of guests, and the degree of cleanliness is outstanding. We stayed a couple of weeks before Christmas and were cheered by the cute decorations and lights that our host provided. John was a delightful and responsive host who provided tips on where to eat and what to see. So grateful for how "at home" we felt and can't wait to return!

Early Christmas
We spent the weekend before Christmas at this wonderful little spot by the ocean while celebrating with family in town. It was a wonderful respite from the fanatics of Christmas. The house was clean, the property and views were beautiful. We had everything we needed and our dogs were allowed to come. Would love to visit again!

Beautiful View from Great Fenced Yard
We had a lovely stay and really enjoyed the yard and views. The house is very clean and comfortable.
There isn’t direct access to the beach from the neighborhood. You can walk but the main road from the neighborhood doesn’t have sidewalks. If you have a dog with you, we recommend driving the 5 minutes to get there.

My wife and I really enjoyed spending the week. The view from the backyard of the ocean was spectacular. Aside from the sound of waves, it was very quiet and peaceful. The house is small but quaint and tasteful. We look forward to returning one day.

Great little house on the coast
The house was very clean, bright and comfortable. It had everything we needed and they even left us cookies! The view was beautiful, a great spot to sit and watch the sunset. We wish we had time to enjoy the fire pit. The host was a great communicator and always available to help if we had needed it.

Everything I wanted!
This a beautiful property with and amazing view. Open the windows and hear the waves crashing on the rocks down below. The house was perfectly equipped. Because I travel with my two Aussies this was a perfect choice because of the yard. The yard on the ocean side was fenced in and the yard behind the house was perfect for fetch! The owner was extremely kind and responsive and the housekeeper didn't leave a speck of sand. My week was just outstanding in every way. I highly recommend this charming house.

This house was perfect for our stay. The house is perfectly stocked and very comfortable and clean. Great view and yard and we enjoyed the fire pit and appreciated the fire starters and abundance of firewood. This is simply a great spot and our dog loved it too.

This is a lovely location and John was a very kind and flexible host. The view of the coast is wonderful from the back yard, though there is no way to walk to the beach at this location. The house had everything we needed, though the shower and pillows could use an upgrade.

Tranquility
The property is beautiful. There are not many rentals that have a fenced yard for a dog, especially with a view. The fenced yard made our trip much more relaxing. We were able to enjoy the view with our dog, without having to untangle him from a leash all the time.

Adorable home great views
I recently had the pleasure of staying at this lovely home, and I was thoroughly impressed with every aspect of my experience. The house itself was charming, with large windows that offered stunning views of the ocean. The cleanliness was impeccable, with attention to detail evident throughout. But what truly made my stay stand out was the accommodating owner, who went above and beyond to ensure that my needs were met and that I felt welcome. From the moment I arrived to the moment I left, I felt like I was at home, and I would highly recommend this property to anyone looking for a comfortable and relaxing getaway

Beauty and privacy
The house was very clean and comfortable. Whatever I needed was there and use of the garage was nice.
The view is amazing. The house is tucked away on a quiet street so very private. From the living room I watched a harbor seal sleep all day and on my last day, a bald eagle perched on the rock just offshore.
