“We had a lovely vacation in the homes of Kate and Mark from Portland, OR. Not only did we exchange homes and stay in their cute beach house just one sand dune away from the Pacific Ocean in Rockaway Beach, but they also opened up their home in Portland so we could see sights in that area! We truly appreciated their hospitality in having every little thing available that we might need--from wind umbrellas to ice packs for our cooler! We really appreciated the information they left suggesting which attractions to see. We enjoyed a balance between beach activities, historical activities, and geological activities. We do love vacationing this way as one truly feels like you are at home while away from home. Thanks again for a memorable vacation!”

Notre maison
Our beach house is in Rockaway Beach (as the crow flies 7 miles south of Manzanita) It is comfy, warm and while lovely, somewhat rustic. We're just a dune away from the Pacific ocean (30 second walk). The kids love playing in the frigid waves and chasing gulls. Regular visitors are pelicans, murres, and sea lions, and often folks see whales migrating in the vicinity, sometimes in the bay right near us. We love taking our meals by a fire on the beach and staying near the surf until late at night. Join us...it's magical!

I am Kate. I have 2 children (girls, 20 and 25). I'm an education professional now after having taught high school for 25 years. We enjoy traveling, usually in the summer. We'd love for you to enjoy our favorite spot at the beach. We have had many wonderful exchanges (London, Madrid, British Columbia, Culver City LA, Pasadena, Costa Rica and Fort Collins) and we loved the chance to get to know other beautiful spots. We will care for your home as though it is our own.

Localisation
Quartier
Drive south along US Highway 101 about 75 miles west from Portland Oregon, you'll be in awe when you stop and gaze over Oregon's steep cliffs. The closest city you are looking down upon is Manzanita. Rockaway Beach lies just beyond. R.B. offers a laid-back, undiscovered coastal destination. The town sits right on the edge of the Pacific Ocean and has a magnificent 7 mile beach. Gorgeous Twin Rocks and majestic Neahkanie mountain will be in view whenever you step on the beach. While in Rockaway Beach you can play in the sand, bodysurf, or just go fly a kite. You can ride a horse along the beach in nearby Nehalem Bay State Park located north of Rockaway, go antique hunting in nearby Nehalem or Wheeler, or rent a boat or kayak and explore the Nehalem Bay and River. Go crab fishing from Garibaldi (and of course visit the famous Tillamook cheese Factory) All of this without sacrificing the relaxed pace of small-town coastal life. If you like that small-town feel, with a nearby river and beach you are going to love Rockaway Beach.
