This Oceanfront Oregon Home Feels Straight Out of a Movie

Are you dreaming of a getaway that practically whisks you away to a movie set? We found just the perfect place on the coast of Oregon.

Overlooking stunning Rockaway Beach, this waterfront home delivers cinematic escapism, from sun-drenched rooms to mesmerizing ocean views. Though all of coastal Oregon's idyllic destinations are at your fingertips — Manzanita, Arch Cape, and Cannon Beach entice just a short drive away — this Airbnb's windswept setting and breezy furnishings feel snatched straight out of Cape Cod. So, pack your linen shirts and cozy beige sweaters — your Nancy Meyers rom-com weekend awaits.

Though its northern neighbors tend to attract more crowds, Rockaway Beach has plenty to keep you busy. When you're not chasing the stunning shoreline or combing along the endless stretch of beach for washed-up treasures, vet the local attractions, including a gorgeous preserve of old-growth coastal cedars, or attend one of Rockaway's annual events, like its beloved kite festival.

After a full day of adventure, snuggle up for a cozy evening at your home-away-from-home. While there are plenty of tempting local eateries nearby, I recommend spending at least one night in. Grill masters can fire up the barbecue on the back deck for an al fresco feast. Otherwise, get your hands dirty in the cottage's kitchen, where you'll find all you need to prepare a wholesome meal for you and your fellow travelers. Either way, you'll be energized for tomorrow's adventures.

When the Pacific storms outside, washes of white and warm hardwood floors welcome light into the snug interiors. On bright mornings, the windows frame the coastal scene outside, beckoning guests toward the landscape of dunes, grasses, and endless blue.

With plush queen and double beds — and a pull-out couch for whoever draws the short straw — this waterfront retreat is ideal for small groups. In my book, it would be the perfect home base for a girl's trip— boasting countless activities, ample room for late-night catch-ups, and also enough privacy to recharge alone. For the best sleep of your life, crack your windows in the summertime to drink in the sound of waves. You'll rise refreshed for whatever's on the day's itinerary, whether you're hunting down saltwater taffy with family or sipping craft cocktails with your girlfriends.

If you're searching for a vacation that will make you feel like you're on a movie set, look no further than this dreamy cottage on the Oregon Coast's Rockaway Beach. After a hearty dinner, spend the evenings watching your favorite rom-coms in the living room as the sun sets over the Pacific, then fall asleep to the crash of surf outside. No matter who you're traveling with, it's hard not to feel swept up in the cinema of this Airbnb's dazzling views.
