About this house rental

Whale’s Tail Cottage - Meredith Lodging

With its unparalleled location on the sand in front of Pacific City’s Haystack Rock, Whale’s Tail Cottage will bring your guests incredible memories of their stay at the beach. You can walk right out of the house to miles of sandy beach, surfers riding the waves, marvelous tide pools, challenging dunes to climb, and dory boats landing on the beach with their fresh catch. As if that weren’t enough, walking a short distance north on the sand lands you at the award-winning Pelican Pub or the upscale Meridian Restaurant!

The custom home itself is a special treat: with three bedrooms and three baths (including two primary suites, and one bedroom with ocean views), it’s perfect for teaming up with your besties for a stay at the beach. A beautifully appointed living room with a gas fireplace and ocean views is a terrific place to gather, and the dining table shares the ocean view. Even the pretty, retro farmhouse kitchen looks out to Haystack Rock over the sink, and it’s fully equipped for eating in.

A deck off the dining room invites you to sit back and watch world-class sunsets over the dunes and Haystack Rock. If you’re planning a trip to the beach, why not stay where you can enjoy it every minute, indoors and out? This inviting home and its stellar location may become your go-to retreat, year after year!

This home is built directly on a sand dune that leads to the beach. During winter storms the sand can quickly drift and accumulate around the property sometimes affecting the ocean view. Although we make every effort to remove the sand and preserve the view before your stay, the winter weather and County and State dune management permit restrictions can make this difficult to predict and views from sitting positions in the living room/dining room may not be guaranteed during the extreme winter storm months

There is a dune camera on the deck that only faces the dune and is used to monitor dune height. In the spirit of privacy and night ambiance both the mic and lights have been deactivated and all lights are deactivated.

Note that the public beach access can be considered steep, use caution in wet conditions.

The beach is gorgeous and the house couldn't be closer. It had everything we needed, and is really well thought out. Would stay again!

This was the perfect spot to end our road trip. Our family of 5 enjoyed rolling down the sand dunes, relaxing on the deck or biking to local restaurants. The views were incredible, all the beach toys you need for fun in the sand and games to wind down at night inside. Would definitely stay here again.Everything you need to create pricless memories can be found at this property.
6.0 / 10.0Average·Jul 2024
We were very exciting pulling into the property and seeing the perfect oceanfront location. The property is right on the sand, with great access to the ocean and walkable to Pelican brewery (about a half mile up the sand). Plenty of kids toys. The cons were 1/ the smells - animal or other smell on all the bedding and sheets and carpets and 2/ hard-to-find dishwasher (this one was our fault!) - it was disguised as cabinetry. A note that says dishwasher on it may have helped. We paid quite a bit for the stay and it was quite a bit less nice than we thought from the pictures.
