NO CLEANING FEES! A Little Bit of Heaven-FREE Kayaks-FUN PEDAL BOAT, Near Beach!

"A Little Bit of Heaven" is a gorgeous private getaway with NO CLEANING FEE$ OR ALL THE $$ EXTRA CHARGE$ $$ most others cash in on! Located right in the center of the dazzling Oregon coast, in a totally separate building from the main house (which we live in) on a tidal inlet of the beautiful Alsea River. 5 minutes from stunning beaches nearly all to yourself. SORRY, no pets due to severe allergies.

Perfect both for romantic getaways, and for family or friends who want something beautiful and different. Incredible whale watching nearby! Well-stocked full kitchen, free laundry use, many unexpected amenities. Sleep in an ultra-comfortable queen bed "floating" in a glorious sky of clouds with its own lighted cloud overhead. Hundreds of 5-star reviews on another rental platform where we have Superhost status.
=== *PLEASE NOTE* For the rare 1-night bookings available, a total of only 2 guests are allowed, including children and infants. PLEASE do not book more than 2 guests total WHEN IT'S A ONE NIGHT STAY as it will require a cancellation. A maximum of 2 guests total does does not apply to any other booking. ===

"A Little Bit of Heaven" is a bright, open, charming 540 sq ft studio apartment suite with a PRIVATE ENTRANCE to an entire upstairs floor and no one else lives downstairs. The bottom floor has a laundry room and garage storage. Sleeps four in 1 queen & 1 double bed. A tri-fold memory foam floor mattress that comfortably sleeps one is in the closet, as well as a safe and comfy inflatable child-size bed for up to about age 8.

[*Please note* - 4 guests are included in the booking price with no per guest fee. You may bring additional guests if you wish, upon approval from us, Kelly and Ellie, for $25 a night per guest. This is =regardless of age=, with the exception of INFANTS 8 MONTHS AND YOUNGER.]

Ten windows fill the suite with light, and provide a picturesque view of the forest and our tidal inlet off the Alsea River where it meets the Alsea Bay. We have installed a keypad lock which opens with a pin number you choose yourself for safety and convenience.

SEVEN FREE-TO-USE KAYAKS (two tandems, four singles & one youth kayak) & a SUPER FUN PEDAL/PADDLE BOAT, (plus life jackets in all sizes) are available to take out every day at high tide. The design of the kayaks provides great stability, making them extremely safe and easy to use for even novice kayakers, whether fishing or kayaking. The canoe maneuvers easily, and has both youth and adult paddles. Launch right from our property when the tide is in!

When the tide is out, wildlife visitors can often be seen, depending on the time of year. Most common are blue herons, egrets, grebes, mallards, eagles and we had many pairs of mated Canada geese nesting right by our property.

You also are welcome to use our crab traps and clamming gear. Or you can borrow our beach chairs, beach towels, large beach umbrella, kites and beach toys, portable propane barbecue with cooking utensils, portable fire pit and more, take in the beauty of any of the gorgeous, unspoiled beaches minutes away that stretch for miles. Go explore the tide pools or go beachcombing for seashells and agates. Or take in some amazing storm watching, depending on the weather. Both the sea wall and the whale observation deck in nearby Depoe Bay offer spectacular views! You might even be surprised by the sight of a whale passing through any time of year!

We are easy to find with Hwy 101 a mile and a half away, and there is ample room for parking.

INSIDE: Well-equipped kitchen has a full-size refrigerator, stove with two-rack oven, dishes, utensils and silverware, pots and pans, bakeware, basic spices, coffee maker, toaster, crockpot, microwave, waffle iron, teas, regular and decaf coffee, creamer along with several food items to treat and surprise our guests!

Bed lamps on each side of the bed have outlets in the base to easily plug in cell phone chargers or other small electronics.

A futon couch folds out into a full-size double bed topped with an additional luxurious gel memory foam mattress topper. Power strip with USB ports and electrical outlets for laptops and other electronics is available on couch end table.

There is a flat screen TV with Dish, Netflix, wifi, Blu-ray DVD player, 4-drawer dresser, luggage racks, hangers, plush spa robes for everyone, blow dryer and more...

The laundry room downstairs on the ground floor is free to use at your convenience, and includes basic laundry supplies, iron and ironing board. We will refresh your sheets and towels as you wish!

We are set back from the road with a tide-controlled river inlet that borders our property on one side. Sometimes in the day, it may be possible to hear some sound from the road.

LOCATION: Perfect for vacation, right in the middle of everything on the beautiful Oregon Coast with Newport and its Historic Bayfront on one side, and Yachats (listed by travel guru Eric Fromme as one of his Top Ten favorite travel destinations in the world) on the other.

Waldport "where the forest meets the sea" as Alsea Bay greets the Pacific Ocean, is home to unique shops and some great restaurants. You can clam in the bay, crab off the dock, fish in the river, and walk the many gorgeous beaches.

The towns north and south offer great restaurants, shops, museums, lighthouses, charter fishing, whale watching boat tours, and more.

The famous Sea Lion Cave is 30 minutes south, and Depoe Bay, with its spectacular whale watching (right from the sea wall or out on a tour boat) is 40 minutes north.

Waldport is in the middle of it all!

Let us know what your interests are and we can suggest restaurants, parks, attractions, and other activities to help you make great memories.

*Sorry, but due to very severe allergies, no animals are allowed on the property.

Amazing Place to Stay!
This was one of our favorite places to stay! The property was wonderful and the room, itself was comfortable, clean and beautiful. There were so many offerings included, like breakfast food items, games/books, kayaks available for taking out on the inlet etc. The hosts were phenomenal, incredibly kind and hospitable. We loved staying here so much that we want to make coming back a yearly tradition. I can’t say enough good about our experience here—it was amazing!

Perfect spot for weekend at the coast
Kelly and Ellie are so welcoming and thought of all the nice little touches to make us feel comfortable and right at home. Bathrobes, warm cookies on arrival, use of the laundry and 'mud' towels, everything you'd ever want when at the coast! The room and kitchen area was well stocked, the beds were comfortable, the space was well lit with windows all around, and there was plenty of entertainment. Loved the kayaks! Kelly and Ellie are super friendly, and you can tell that they love hosting guests.

Incredible Birthday getaway to the coast!
This place looked fantastic from all the photographs and it did NOT disappoint! We had hoped to find a place where we could walk out on the sand, but all the extra touches and location just blocks from Waldport made it irresistible. The host thought of literally everything. When we walked in the door, they had fashioned a happy birthday sign for me that made me smile every time we saw it. They also wrote a welcome message in the sequined couch pillows, fashioned towels into two swans that formed a heart shape at the foot of the “cloud bed.” The cloud decor you see over the bed in pictures is as awesome as it looks. Our only regret is that our activities didn’t lineup with the tides in a way that would’ve allowed us to use the kayaks and paddle boat. We brought all this fishing gear and thought we’d be spending our time on or beside the water. In the end, we found plenty of wonderful things to do, and we never even unpacked that stuff. We will definitely reach out to these owners again for our next trip to the coast. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay!!!

My Sister and I showed up and had a big welcoming from Ellie and Kelly!! They had our place all ready and clean and fully stocked with anything we might need while we were there. Kelly and Ellie are the loveliest couple that were there for us any time we needed them but also gave us complete privacy. Kelly met us down by the dock to help us put some kayaks in the water for a stroll in the water at high tide. The bed was so comfortable. We commented to each other that we want to bring our husbands here to stay with us next time.

Lovely Stay
Our hosts were very nice and helpful. We received detailed arrival instructions as well as info about the area. The unit was clean and in a quiet area. The hosts provided unexpected goodies. We didn’t use many of the amenities, though there were lots provided! We did use the washer/dryer, which was a major reason for me to rent this unit, having traveled for a full week prior to our stay here and had another week to go. The bed was a bit too soft for our preference, but we enjoyed the real soft and thick bath towels. I would stay here again.

Heaven on the Oregon Coast
Kelly and Ellie call this suite "A little bit of heaven" and they're not kidding! It's like a honeymoon suite and children's dream suite all in one. I was drawn originally to the description and photos, which were spot-on. The place is super-clean, extremely comfy and over-the-top cool. From the fresh-baked cookies on check-in to the plush towels and robes, access to laundry, and more kitchen appliances than I have at home, it's hard to beat. And then there's the beautiful river/coastal inlet outside the window, the kayaks and paddle boats and easy access to Oregon Coast. Stay there. You won't be disappointed.

Everything you need for an awesome stay!
We loved the place! It was open and airy, the perfect size for me and my 2 college age children. Kelly and Ellie are great hosts, and thought of everything you might possibly need. Before we went, they provided info on things to do, restaurants, attractions. The property has a fully equipped kitchen and bath, including bath products. Plus items for the beach - a beach bag and towels, portable grill, chairs. AND kayaks for paddling in the inlet. The location is central, tons to do within an hour north or south. We went sandboarding, visited Lighthouses, hiked at Cape Perpetua. We explored tidepools, saw seals at Yaquina Head, Sea Lions in Newport, whales at Depoe Bay. The Oregon Coast is breathtaking. And finished the day with local beverages, like Marionberry Cider. Highly recommend!

Heaven may be an understatement
We stayed with Kelly and Ellie in their perfect little Bit of Heaven while we stayed and strayed out of Waldport for a wedding. It had been almost 30 years since my last Oregon visit and I was so very happy to be returning with my wife and 10 year old son. They may need to create a new rating system because, honestly, 5 stars is not enough. The kindness they showed us was worth the visit alone, but their vast wealth of knowledge of the local and surrounding areas was equally welcome and simply priceless. When we arrived they both gave us a tour, which included a personalized message on giant homemade sequined pillows welcoming each of us by name. They provided robes in our sizes, any and all toiletries you could think of, snacks and sweets and even gave access to laundry with all detergents and softners provided, scent and dye free nonetheless. I felt more cozy and comfortable than I do in my own home and that is saying something. We hope to return and return soon. When we do, I cannot wait to be back in Heaven, even if only to say hello to Kelly and Ellie. Thank you both so much for making our magical trip feel that much more special.
