Marcia's Mercer Lake Chateau

Our calendar is updated in real-time & our nightly rates are accurately displayed. Simply enter your desired dates and click 'Book Now!'

Quaint and stylish, this dog-friendly Florence vacation rental is tucked away in the woods and sits directly on Mercer Lake. Marcia's Mercer Lake Chateau is the perfect getaway for you and your family looking to relax in pure serenity!

Mercer Lake is one of the best places for swimming, fishing, or canoeing, and when you're sitting on the beach watching the kids paddle around in the water, you'll be taken back to those simpler times in life. The beautiful beaches, windswept dunes, and rugged cliffs along the Oregon Coast are just a short drive away.

This home is bright and airy, with an open layout and lofted bedroom. Floor-to-ceiling windows overlook the beautiful lake. Step into the living room from the deck, and you'll find a two comfy futons, a fireplace that's great to gather around after a long day outside, and a television that's perfect for the kids who can't miss their Saturday cartoons! There's also free WiFi, so you can easily stay in touch with loved ones back home. In the morning, use the spacious kitchen to whip up some chocolate chip pancakes with a side of fresh-cut strawberries. With all the necessities you need to feed your guests, or perhaps just heat up some leftovers from the night before, you will love having this space to work in. And with a convenient dishwasher, clean up is easy - and maybe you'll even have some help clearing the dishes!

The dining room has a beautiful country table with room for six, but you might be tempted to dine al fresco. On the deck overlooking the lake, feel free to relax with a good book while catching some rays, or perhaps enjoy a romantic evening under the stars while treating yourself to a crisp glass of Riesling and a sampling of local Oregon cheeses. When it's time to turn in, head up to the upper-level loft, where you'll find a comfortable queen-sized bed, another television, and a small sitting area where you can fill out your postcards or finish that crossword puzzle while sipping on coffee. Downstairs, the kids will love being able to spread out on the futons while waking up the sunshine trickling in through the trees. There is also one full bathroom with a soaking tub, perfect for relaxing those sore muscles after a day of adventure. And though you may enjoy the feeling of being away from it all, you'll still have conveniences like a washer and dryer for your use!

For a relaxing vacation away from it all, yet with all the modern accommodations to make your stay easy and comfortable, this Central Oregon Coast vacation rental is the perfect place to put your feet up!

What's nearby:
Mercer Lake is the perfect place for fishing. It is open all year and offers some of the best rainbow trout, largemouth bass, yellow perch and bluegill. If you forgot some supplies, no worries, because the Mercer Lake Resort right next door sells bait, tackle, and fishing licenses at their corner store. While you're busy catching dinner, the kids can enjoy the sandy beaches of the lake and a swimming area protected by docks (please be aware the resort does charge some fees for use). This lake is over 340 acres, so you'll never run out of water to explore!

On the days you feel like heading into town, downtown Florence is just a short ten-minute drive from this Oregon Coast vacation rental. Stop into one of the little eateries like the Beachcomber Tavern for fish and chips, or the the Waterfront Depot for their famous crab-crusted halibut, and you won't regret it! Also around town are plenty of charming shops, two golf courses, a casino, and more to explore. You're also less than 15 minutes drive from coastal beaches and other recreational areas.

Property not as described. All the pics were out dated, guessing they took the pics from when the previous owner listed it in 2004. Dirty, broken lights, paths to deck and lake over grown, deck and stairs were so rotted and not meeting code. If a guest were to get hurt while navigating the stairs or on the upper deck over looking the lake or trying to get down the gang way onto the dock in the water they would win a law suit for sure. It’s a huge liability for the owner. We could not believe a person who didn’t care about his/her property would not care to fix it and rent it out to people. The pics in the advertisement are 100% false advertising

Quiet and beautiful lake. The house needs some touch up and the walk away to the desk requires some attention. Everything else was perfect. Thank you very much for sharing your property with us. We felt like leaving in the treehouse.

Outdated home in desperate need of repair. The dock was great!
4.0 / 10.0
We loved the dock on the water! If we could've spent 100% of the time there, we would've. The house, decks and steps to the water are in desperate need of repair. Stains on the interior walls are not flattering. The check in, check out instructions are not accurate for unlocking and locking up the home.

Overall location of property was great. Close to town but far enough away to feel secluded

So peaceful and serene on the beautiful lake.
10.0 / 10.0
The architecture of the house, both inside and out, was gorgeous. It is really amazingly designed and very attractive, though old and needing some TLC at this point. There was no evidence of rodents like others mentioned in the past, but we noticed holes where they could get in. The back patio, the balcony over the water, and the private location within all the greenery were all wonderful. The dock had a hole leading to it and looked unstable, so we didn't venture onto it. More dish towels and dish cloths would have been nice. The bathroom in particular was beautifully designed and spacious. The loft was fun, and overall we greatly enjoyed our stay.
6.0 / 10.0
The area is very nice, the home is a older home and needs some TLC. The septic tank needs emptied, was running down the yard, whe you showered, washed dishes or used bathroom, and it smelled like sewer when you went outside.
