Overview

This snug Florence vacation rental is perfect for a romantic getaway for two or a solo retreat to the coast. Adorably provincial, this rustic cottage near beautiful Heceta Beach is a quaint little spot to enjoy a relaxing beach vacation year-round.

Beach access at Driftwood Shores Resort, which also includes the Surfside Restaurant, is only one block away. Head down to the shore and fly a kite or watch for whales in the winter and spring. A short and scenic drive south along highway 101, will take you to the stunning Oregon Dunes National Recreation Area. Watch off road vehicles navigate the sweeping dunes, hike around, or capture some amazing photographs to share with your friends.

The interior of the cottage features soothing colors and reclaimed wood accents. This freestanding cabin includes a small sitting area with a rich brown leather couch and a TV with a DVD player. After a day of exploring the nearby ocean shore, you can pop some popcorn and snuggle into the couch for a cozy movie night.

When it's time for a bite to eat, the kitchenette is equipped with a microwave, mini-fridge, and a small dining area - ideal for heating up leftovers, small breakfasts, or enjoying take-out feasts. There's also a coffee maker if you don't feel up to trekking into town for a caffeine fix. A variety of restaurants is at hand in historic Old Town Florence, just a six-mile drive away. Enjoy fish and chips and chowder at Mo's, crab-encrusted halibut at the Waterfront Depot Restaurant, or caesar salads and grilled Coho salmon at La Pomodori Ristorante. There are also a number of galleries to browse, shops to explore, and even the Siuslaw Pioneer Museum for learning about the area's history.

Sleep may be the last thing on your mind during your fun-filled vacation, but if you find yourself nodding off there is a full-sized bed tucked away in a peaceful nook. A small bathroom is just a few steps away with a shower, and a second sink located right outside for added convenience. If the bathroom is occupied by your companion, there'll be no wait to brush your teeth or wash your face at the end of the day!

This charming beach-shack style cottage will comfortably sleep up to two guests, as well as one canine guest (though a nightly fee per dog and a minimum fee per stay will apply). Other amenities include an outdoor fire pit for evenings of roasting marshmallows and making s'mores!

This quintessential cottage offers exactly the low-profile comfort you are looking for when you plan a private and relaxing escape to the South Oregon Coast!

The place was perfect for us. I enjoyed the collection of art and furniture. The ocean was close and we were able to be comfortable in the quiet neighborhood.

This place was very cute, and we had a wonderful stay. The only reason it's not five stars is because the place is not well insulated at all. They have a fan and space heater, which is very helpful. However, the front door has visible holes through it and we saw many large spiders in the cottage during our stay. Besides the spider problem, it was a great place to stay, and I would stay here again.

Avari response:

We’re so glad to hear you found our cozy cabin cute and that you had a wonderful stay, Alex. It sounds like you made the most of your time here, and we appreciate your feedback about the insulation and the door. We want every guest to feel comfortable, and we’re sorry to hear about the spiders you encountered. We’ll definitely look into those concerns to ensure a better experience for future guests.

It’s great to know you’d consider staying with us again. We’d love to welcome you back for another relaxing getaway by the beach!

Good spot to stay for a few days when traveling to the coast

I really enjoy staying at this place. I love how you have so much privacy. Being able to be close to the coast is really a good spot. Close enough to Eugene to make the drive very easily. The fact that there is this "old timey" building feel is really a cool experiance.

not being able to take out the strainer in the sink was rather problematic, this is mitigated a bit by just using paper towels to scoop out most stuff, but it is really the only inconvenience this place has

Avari response:

Thank you for sharing your experience with us, Nate. We're thrilled to hear that you enjoyed the privacy and charm of our property, as well as its convenient location near the coast and Eugene. It’s wonderful to know that the ā€œold timeyā€ feel added to your stay.

We genuinely appreciate your feedback regarding the sink strainer. We understand how that could be an inconvenience, and we’re sorry it impacted your experience. We’ll make sure to address this issue to enhance the comfort of future guests.

We’d love to welcome you back for another stay, where we hope to provide an even smoother experience. Safe travels!

Even though there were some complications, I would love to stay at this cottage again.

Cottage was clean, cozy, and comfortable. Public beach access near Driftwood Shores Resort was a five minute pleasant walk.

Did not have cell phone use. Could not connect phone or laptop to wifi. Streaming to TV had a lot of buffering. Did not sleep in bed due to ant problem.
