The space
With plenty of seating and a large smart tv the living area is cosy and inviting. The kitchen is stocked with all the basics you’ll need from cooking a meal to baking (bring your own ingredients) to making smoothies and coffee.
Our open tiled bathroom, has a bidet toilet and touch faucet or motion activated faucet. This room is accessible to those in a wheelchair or who need a shower chair. (Just ask and one will be moved in for you prior to checkout.) There is a laundry area with a full sized washer and dryer, 1 bedroom with 1 queen bed. And 1 bedroom with bunk beds and a twin medical bed.
In the entry closet you'll find beach toys, children's books, coolers and shopping bags. Next to the dining area find games, cards and puzzles for some fun! We've also got bird and animal identification books and binoculars!
The spacious main bedroom has a sliding door onto the back patio and a custom sit to stand desk in the alcove if you need to work a bit while away. We've got puzzles here and a small library as well.
There is a large fire pit in the fenced and grassy backyard – perfect for kids and your dog. As well as a peekaboo view of the bay from the back deck (hence our name). If you leave the windows open at night, enjoy being lulled to sleep by the relaxing sounds of the ocean.
Our pet-friendly home is located 1 block from water with access to Nehalem Bay. Fishing, crabbing, bird watching, and kayaking close by. Located 5 minutes from both Manzanita and Nehalem, 7 minutes from the beach.
