Reviews for this vacation home rental in Port Orford, Oregon
Our recent stay at the Vagabond House was just wonderful. There were 6 women and having 3 bedrooms and 3 baths made the stay great. The proprietors (Judy & Roger) were the sweetest people and their place was just like staying at home. All their extra special touches were very much appreciated and made our stay so comfortable. It was clean and homey feeling. I would highly recommend staying at this place to all my family and friends. Thanks to Judy and Roger for making our stay great. We all had a great time!!
From the moment we arrived at the Vagabond House, we were made to feel at home. Roger and Judy were outstanding! The space itself was beautiful! We felt it was an incredible value! Fully stocked kitchen, big screen television, very nicely decorated. We were in HEAVEN! Even with the owners upstairs we were provided with ample privacy. It's VERY close to the beach, we could literally hear the waves as we relaxed on the patio in the evenings! There is not enough room here to say all that we liked, we are very, very pleased and plan on a return trip as soon as possible. This truly, is the best kept secret on the coast! GO! By all means! Our hosts really made it all worthwhile, wonderful people! It's a long drive from Idaho, but we WILL be back! FIVE STAR rating for sure! Our only complaint, we had to LEAVE after only five days, next time we will spend our whole vacation there.
We found this property on-line. It is always a little difficult to know how nice a place without actually seeing it in person. This is a gem. The owners were wonderful and have anticipated a lot of details. We had plenty of room to accommodate my wife and me, our two boys, and my parents, with room to spare. All the amenities of home. View is beautiful. Beach is great (just a short walk down the hill), and climbing Battle Rock was fun. Vagabond House is also within walking distance of a small lunch and dinner diner. Compared to other vacation rentals this is truly a great value and a very comfortable place to stay.
I stayed at Vagabond house with three friends, and we had the perfect girls' getaway! Each of the bedrooms has its own bathroom, and was just the right size for us! The rental has a completely separate entrance from the upper part of the house, but the owners are a delight, as well! Quiet, but friendly and hospitable! The house has a stunning view of the beach/ocean, and is just a short walk away from Battle Rock Beach. Check out the Myrtlewood gift shop while you're in town and have dinner at Port and Starboard (best clam chowder ever!). My friends and I will definitely be back. It was an absolute delight!
On our recent leisurely drive along the Oregon coast, we stopped at the Port Orford Visitor Center to inquire about lodging in the area. After seeing Vagabond House and talking with the owners, we knew immediately "this is the place." We were pleasantly surprised with the various attractions in and nearby Port Orford, so much so, we extended our "unplanned" stop to two nights. This property offers qualities not often found in your standard motel. The friendliness of the owners and beauty of the surroundings made our visit a relaxing and unique experience. The nearby seafood restaurant “on the dock,” was an added bonus. Travelers will be challenged to match this property anywhere on the coast for the charm and price. We highly recommend it!
