Stunning Beach Front House Near Bandon Dunes Golf Resort

The first home we built in Bandon was on this bluff over the beach, probably 500 yards from this house. So when we came back to Bandon for Christmas, we knew the location and even knew the house. It was a natural.
The view - sunny days or stormy - is dazzling. The house is large and comfortable. The photos and listing descriptions are quite accurate.
They say the house will sleep 10, and it will if you're really really good friends. The four bedrooms handle 8, and there are two roll-aways. Catch: there are two rather small bathrooms.
But the comfortable living room, the dining room and the enormous game room/tv room provide lots of hang-out places for large groups.
The house was generally well maintained. There is wi-fi in the house, which we used a lot. There is a landline phone which was not working -- that appeared to be a phone company issue, possibly storm-related. When we had questions, the owners were very quick to respond -- couldn't have asked for more.
While we know Bandon well, visitors have an array of information available at the house; everything from attractions to restaurant menus to tide tables. And the house is supplied with cards and puzzles and such if you just want to tuck in and watch storms.
I've never understood going to visit Bandon and NOT being on the beach. Sorta the point. On sunny days (we didn't see any) from this house you not only get a knock-your-socks-off view, but there is a path down to a deck which itself overlooks the beach, and a path from there down to the sand.
Bandon, by the way, has for our money the most gorgeous beach in Oregon, and this is the best of Bandon.
Dealing with the owners of this house pre-trip was easy. They are quick to answer questions or make arrangements via email, and are simply good, nice, honest people.
Overall: excellent. This is not your home, it's a vacation rental, and as such has the usual glitches, but they pale next to the comfort of your stay.
Realistically, everything here is a drive - a short one - away. Grocery stores, Sprague Community Theater, Old Town restaurants. We recommend Alloro restaurant & wine bar; The Loft restaurant (both in Old Town); a visit to famed Bandon Dunes golf resort - just for food and drink and a look, it you're not a golfer; a stroll down Second Street and its gallery, bookshop, bakery; Bandon Mercantile, for kitchen gear and stuff you didn't even know you needed until you see it.
We're tickled we stayed in this house.

The property was outstanding! Wonderful location with the surf, whales, and sunsets. Very convenient to golf. Will look forward to future visits and would recommend to friends in a heartbeat.

Thank you Caryssa and Elizabeth for a beautiful beachfront home at Bandon Beach for our 10 family members.. Our family held a reunion in Bandon which turned out, since everyone was gathered, to also celebrate a wedding at near Bandon Wayside's Cathedral Rock at sunset! Other family members rented other beach homes in Bandon, but all raved about the location and view from our house! Weather during our week was clear, cool with a new best sunset every evening. We would also have a gray whale feeding about 800 feet offshore to add to the seaview!

Beach access was down a slope of sturdy railroad ties to the entertainment deck and then down deck starirs to a willow grove trail filled with horsetail plants and flowers to the dune and beach below. Daily morning walks north to the Bandon Jetty or south to the State Park resulted in finding beach agates and sea treasures. After the walks we would gather in the well appointed kitchen for coffee and tea to plan the day!

The house was very comfortablel and cozy...with beautiful views of the sea or side gardens. The bathrooms, not shown on the website, were modern and tiled with shower/tub/toilet separated by a door to the outer sink area, very convenient!. The TBs and sound system was a great bonus when the whale watching ended at sunset! The pool table and hot tub were the center of the attention for our family.

Elisabeth and Caryssa were very knowledgable and very helpful in answering questions and making arrangements for our stay. The home lived up to its first adjective: Stunning! Many thanks for a memorable Bandon vacation! Carol from NH
