Charming, great beach access.

Our 2nd year staying at this location. We are willing to look past all of the quarks and odd things about the house in trade for fantastic beach access. Its been said time and time again in the reviews, but the place really could use a good deep clean and dusting. The home has fun character oberall.

Beautiful Location

The location was great, very beautiful looking out at the creek going into the ocean with the sun shining into the house. The heated floors were amazing! There were tide pools nearby and you weren’t too far from the bigger town of Newport for groceries and the awesome aquarium. Only downsides, the walls need a good dusting 😄 and the outlets are a bit rough, our chargers were always falling out.

Location Location Location!!!

We had the best time here and communication was superb! We would stay here again and again. The location is unreal, a hot tub overlooks the ocean, and it feels like you are staying in your family’s cabin. We booked this place when the Portland storm hit and they worked with us as we weren’t able to get out of the city for the first night. All the directions were easy to follow and the place was exactly as was described. Our dog loved this place and we hope to stay here again sometime in the summer!!

Fantastic family beach vacation

If you are looking for a low key place with amazing beach access and views to enjoy your beach vacation, this is the place for you! It is not pristine or comparable to the Ritz, nor does it pretend to be, and it is priced appropriately to reflect it. We had a wonderful time for our 3 generation family vacation. We loved the miles upon miles of beautiful beaches; the freshwater creek - so water on two sides, perfect for littles; and easy access to the charming towns of Waldport and Yachats, with all the amenities of Newport 30 minutes to the north and of Florence 45 minutes to the south. Planning our next stay already.

Relaxation

We enjoyed having the private sandy beach access. We loved the Beautiful ocean views. The house definitely was not fancy and very unique. We knew that it was “rustic” and not updated from the other reviews we read. My husband and I had a very relaxing time. We enjoyed walking along the beach and sightseeing.

Beach House with Character

This house was quirky and warm. The floors are not level, there are little repairs that could be done, some extra cleaning could be done...but we love staying in it! We have stayed in more pristine homes all along the coast, but this one has so much personality. It made all of us smile! We were cozy and safe inside it's walls, while enjoying a lovely ever-changing view. I wouldn't change a thing in the end. It was our second visit to this home, and we hope to stay again someday. We are grateful that the owner shares their beach home with others.

Rugged but Good Locatio

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was somewhat dirty. I was very happy with the location. I was somewhat dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Great access and view of coast and river. Ammenities in home are old and very worn. Lower bunk bed unsafe, falling apart. That being said, we appreciated the wireless internet access.

reat location.

House in very poor condition. Floors uneven due to foundation shifting, can see outside through the slatted doors! Doors don't actualy close into the latches so there is a wooden bar to be placed into brackets to secure the house! Some nail heads ex[osed on the wooden deck - always wear shoes. House was dirty and dusty. Wore flip flops into the showers. Used our own sheets and towels , thank goodness. Location is great, house was filthy and won't stay there again.

Big creek

We have stayed here in the past and especially enjoyed the location. However, there are some major problems. Although the house appeared superficially clean, there were cobwebs everywhere. The sink in the community bathroom has rusted out and there wasn’t any hot water. The plumbing in the kitchen also had a major leak. The management company were responsive to our problems. We like rustic but I think the number of problems with the house over the years has started to outweigh the lovely location.

It's all about Location

We were more than warned about the condition of the house: it is "extremely rustic" and needs a deep cleaning and fresh paint. However, all the "important parts" like the shower, toilets and main kitchen area were very clean. Beds were comfortable. There are some surprising updates: heated flooring, new flat screen t.v.'s, and spotless hottub. Disappointing were a total lack of spices (we donated salt and pepper from the grocery store) and noise from the highway. (Bring ear plusgs). The view and beach access are second to none. Despite its obvious age, the house was very cozy and free of drafts. Plus, the fireplace is a big plus!

Rustic doesn’t mean dirty

Flooring is very nice. Completely unlevel home with doors that cannot latch is janky. Whole house smelled and felt musty…., that’s in late August when the coast has been dry. Towels left by housekeeping were not dry. Windows cannot open due to a house that has settled very uneven. Location and view is great. Unlevel house can’t be fixed but a thorough cleaning, functional windows and exterior siding that isn’t rotten would justify the price of the lodging.

Great location but major maintenance issues

This property has a great location. Access to the beach is easy, creek was fun for the kids to play in, and could hear the ocean from the house. However, this house is in dire need of maintenance. The manager was contacted and he is reaching out to the owner to fix the hazards. It’s hard to hear the ocean at the front of the house because of the road noise (highway is just outside door). The noise can be heard while enjoying the ocean view in the back yard. The backyard was a nice size for kids to play. There was a lack of privacy because lots of people sat by the creek. Overall, I would recommend this house if/when it gets fixed up.

A Quick Escape

We had a wonderful time here! The location is great. It's right next to the highway, but you can hardly hear the sound of the cars over the ocean! Speaking of, we could see the beach from the house, and it took us all of 30 seconds to walk there. There was hardly anyone on the beach. I will say that the place did not appear to have been cleaned very well. There was hair clogging the shower drain, and the showers were also quite dirty. They also had a used soap bar and half empty suave bottles for our convenience... hooray. The house itself was full of character! I felt like I was old light house keeper sleeping in a creaky old coastal house. I loved it! The Oregon Coast Aquarium is less than 30 minutes away, along with Ripley's Museum, which was entertaining. Overall, we enjoyed ourselves.

Go for the view!

The view from the backyard can not be beat. We booked for the location alone. They did call it rustic and it is. Has the feel of a multi-generation family cabin. Missing a few things, like enough steak knives and dinner plates for 6, which management did not remedy. But they replaced the rusted BBQ promptly, which was appreciated. Hot tub was good first time, due to a slow leak posted we added more water the next morning but it was still not hot 12 hours later. Didn't bother addressing with management as we were checking out. Definitely more money than we'd normally spend on such basic accommodations. Still, had a fun family vacation.

Big Creek

House worked well for us and location was just right. Plates/glassware/silverware were clean and sufficient. Pots and pans were sufficient, but some were not very clean (roasting pan in particular, so we didn't use it. 1 frying pan was very warped). BBQ not usable - knobs won't turn, was not clean. Fireplace unsafe to use - chimney cracks (can see firebox from outside). Fan in hall bath does not work. Missing some tiles in same - is that related to where siding outside is missing/rotted?

Beautiful and great spot, absolutely disgusting inside

Rating Details: The property manager was adequately helpful. The vacation rental was very dirty. I was very happy with the location. I was very dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The place inside is covered in dust, has a bad smell of mildew, the floor ia uneven and pitched in every room, the tiles and grout are broken and scummy and the counter top is tiled. The pillows were disgusting, the doors didn’t shut all the way so when the wind blows it’s chilly, the entire place was in disrepair with massive damage and clutter piled around outside and in. But it’s right on the coast with great access and view of the beach, the hot tub was great but leaked massively so had to be maintained daily.

Love Peter and Katy at Odyssey

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We have been staying at BIG Creek house several times a year for at least 15 years. Peter (and now Katy too), have always been fantastic with reservations, any issues, customer service etc. Can't recommend them high enough. We love the Big Creek House, but it has be in need of maintenance for some time. The owner is taking it out of the rental pool in Oct for an overhaul. So, this was our last trip there. Now with Peter and Kay's help we will find another Odyssey place to go too. 5 STARS for Ocean Odyssey!!
