Beachfront vacation rentals in Columbia River

This was our second trip to The Rocky Whale in the last six months. We love it here. For us, the location is incredible. We spend as much time on the beach possible and being able to cross the street to the dune path and be at the ocean in less than 5 minutes is incredible. Low-tide tide pools? Check. Entire groups of seals? Check. Eagles? Check. Milky Way on a clear night? Also check! We are grateful for the ability to bring our dogs and the big open space downstairs to be able to house their crates. The bed/bath/kitchen has always been clean and comfortable and when the storms come through being able to hang out in the big living space upstairs and keep ourselves entertained (tv… storm… games.. etc) has come in handy. The kitchen is well appointed. We eat in when we stay here and there is nothing we haven’t been able to handle (sometimes a little improvisation is needed!) We were never able to find the tv remote on our second trip… but there is an app for that.

we enjoyed our time there so much that we extended our stay an extra day, and almost another day after that, but we needed to go home. The lapping of the waves and the beautiful sunsets are just the peace and tranquility that we needed. We will definitely stay again!

We spent a long family weekend in a lovely setting that felt very private. The landscaping and view are beautiful. We enjoyed the bbq, hot tub and fire pit. The kitchen is large and easy for a group. We had 7 adults and there was plenty of together space as well as room to get away. We would definitely recommend staying here when visiting the island.

Great getaway spot! The beach was close by as described and the dogs loved the beach! House was clean and as described, instructions on where to park and what to do was easy to follow. Dogs parked themselves at the gas fireplace and stayed cozy while we set up a mobile office to work and enjoy the view.

My wife and I came down from Washington to relax. Been really busy at work so we were looking forward to getting away. What a fantastic place. We have a mini Australian Shepherd. Totally enjoyed ourselves. I was relaxing upstairs looking out the window at the ocean, about 2 hours later I woke up. It was truly incredible to be that relaxed. Nobody was on the beach so I was able to let my dog run for a bit. Great places to grab some food close by. They had an excellent smoke house right down the street with great stuff if you like smoked meats and fish. A bakery that made me gain 5 lbs too. We will be back. Thank you.

Carol was an amazing host, very responsive and offered early check-in! The home was super comfy and housed our 8 woman book club well. Really loved the quiet, the hot tub, and the short walk onto the beach. Would definitely stay again!!

The house had great accommodations and it being right on the water was absolutely perfect. It was so peaceful and serene, wish we could have stayed longer.

A nice little get away as a family to enjoy the things we love - beach, water, and nature! Kirsten’s place offered all three and more! Cozy, comfortable, and clean! Enjoy every minute we were there!

we had a great time. super easy directions and check in, condo was clean and had plenty of space for the 6 of us. nice patio, great location. hope to stay there again in the future!

Beau was a wonderful host! He responded within the hour and was able to accommodate an early entry when we got to the location a little sooner then expected. He also was able to work with me when my trip was delayed. Extremely grateful for the flexibility on this trip. The rental was very clean and had many extra amenities for guests. The instructions for entry and exit were very clear and thorough. We love Crescent bar! This is our first choice for stay when visiting. Beau's place will be on the list if its available!

We had a great time at Kelly’s place in Westport! The place was perfect for what we needed it for! Kids and dog were very happy too!

A must for relaxation and peace. The home is beautiful and location is amazing.

The Strands was a beautiful place to do a little sister trip with our little babies. It was peaceful and it was so nice being so close to the beach and the amenities of the resort available. The unit itself was amazing. It was so well decorated and beautifully designed. Everything was very well thought out and we felt really comfortable. I would definitely come back and highly recommend it to anyone!

Place was gorgeous, Iris was a sweet and responsive host. We will be back again 100%

Walking access to the beach was amazing! This place is very warm & welcoming, will definitely rebook in the future! Host was easy to talk to & responsive!

This was our second stay at an Airbnb in Nanoose Bay at the Pacific Shores resorts. Chelsea's place was top of the line. As described, clean and comfortable. Everything we needed and more. Comfortable for the 6 of us who stayed. We loved the location and lay out of the condo, and loved being able to utilize the resort amenities as well. We hope and plan to stay here again next year and for many more to come!

I stayed at Raymond’s place for a week with my husband and father in law, and it was spacious enough for the three of us. We had a great time and his house is charming with a wonderful deck and incredible views of the ocean. We walked along the beach trail into town several times. The Sunshine Coast is such a great area and we greatly enjoyed daily walks in forests and beaches and spend time visiting the local cideries and breweries. I echo some other reviews that some of the kitchen utensils could be replaced. But we did manage to cook some lovely dinners, making use of some great local seafood and used the bbq a couple of times. We would happily stay here again in the future.

I was hesitant to spend so much. It was not only worth it it was memorable and smelled so good. The tides the sound of the waves laping. Good folks with a slice of heaven on their doorstep.

Loved staying here with my family. House was SO clean. Would definitely come back. Great amount of space enjoyed seeing the water all day. Even had a highchair for my little one!

We had an absolutely amazing stay at Anchor Down Inn. The home exceeded expectations, such beautiful views and a comfy, clean and spacious home. The balloons, cake, and flowers for a birthday were such a thoughtful and sweet gesture. We were greeted with a friendly note, wine, and snacks. The hot tub was wonderful and the surprise visit of Seals our first morning was incredible. Rachel was very responsive and helpful if I had any questions, and even let us check in early the day of our arrival. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a private getaway. We will definitely be back!

Stayed at this house with a few friends for the weekend and had such a lovely time. Serene views of the passage from a heated deck and hot tub, and spacious living quarters for everyone to have separate sleeping quarters.

This place was just amazing in all areas. Perfect size space for you and your family as well. Has so much character inside and out and was one of the best places my girlfriend and I have been to, to just relax. Was so peaceful and such a beautiful view.

We liked the condo and location very much. Very peaceful, quiet and private, the unit is well maintained, and everything we used worked. Kitchen was great, we used it for breakfast everyday. Hardly anyone walking the beach during our stay, and it was relaxing watching the tide come in and out, with the lights from Canada at the distance. A place to stay if you're after a quiet, relaxing vacation. The restaurant at the nearby resort is a very short walk away, and pretty good even with the short menu, as their main kitchen is closed for renovation.

Great place to stay! Private & peaceful. Great for a getaway weekend. Response times were very fast and helpful. Would 10/10 rebook with DJ & Karen!
