Ocean Front Cabins

At first sight, the cabin looks very old and small. In the inside it’s very cute and perfect for a little vacation home. Everything’s very nice from the kitchen to the million dollar view. The one problem was it smelled like dog pee, other than that was a great little cabin.

If you want to stay at Oceanside, Oregon but can’t really afford to be there, Ocean Front Cabins are by far the best price. The lowest prices by far with no cleaning fees and a pretty decent ocean view, they work well if you primarily care about being there and viewing the gorgeous ocean and not as much about the ambiance.

After many years of friends having satisfactory experiences, first test of customer service dealing with a problem completely failed. My friends have recommended this place for years. I stayed with them in the same cabin before. This time we walked into a horrific burnt burner smell, borderline toxic. We immediately opened all the windows for hours. Never closed them in fact. We also left our front door open for a while. The smell would not dissipate. The first night it was too late to complain as the office was closed. We traveled nine miles to get a natural citrus air spray which helped, but the burnt burner smell continued to remain. Even the bedding smelt of it. Curtains and carpet too. But then a further problem! The shower liner was GROSS! Moldy and hairs stuck to the bottom! The shower I was wanting to take was out of the question. First thing in the morning I discussed with the manager the problems. She said that someone had «burned a hole in a pan» before we arrived! She said she had opened the windows (they were closed when we arrived) and didn’t want to spray anything in case we were «allergic»… All I can say is, that if management of a hotel does not have protocol for severe odor issues; or protocol to ensure the burners on the stove are properly cleaned and maintained, then they have no business running the place. There are many odor absorbing methods for commercial establishments and they were obviously clueless about how to handle it. It ruined the two nights trying to sleep. I asked management to request a partial credit or refund from the owner, as the condition of our room was not satisfactory. Also, the burners on the stove were not all functional and we were paying to use the stove! The owner sent the message that we could check-​out by 11 a.m. and not stay the second night! Well I had no choice but to stay there, as I was due at the airport the next morning. I was shocked at the complete lack of customer service at the first problem we had encountered since staying there, and recommending the place to all our friends; and being repeat customers. I will not be returning.

We happened upon Ocean Front Cabins after the first-​come first-​serve yurts at the state park we were planning on staying at filled up. Initially, we chose this property based on price and proximity to where we were when we got denied a Yurt — it was the most affordable lodging along the coast and was only ~ an hour from where we were. After driving into Oceanside and making our way to Ocean Front Cabins I was totally pleased with how things turned out.
The staff were rad, the cabins were well stocked and exceptionally clean (Working as a housekeeping manager, I had developed a habit of inspecting rental properties upon arrival), and the location is second to none. The cabin we had was perfect for the four of us, with plenty of space to lounge, cook, and kick back when we weren’t exploring the beach.
The town of Oceanside from what we experienced, is quiet, cozy and minimally serviced — we were able to find enough groceries to cook a vegan meal and made use of the cabin’s kitchen. If you’re looking for a place to stop along the Oregon coast for a few days, this place is great.
I hope to return to Portland in the next few years and will make a trip out to Oceanside and stay here again.

Love this place and the cabins! Cozy cabins as close to the beach as you can get for a great rate. Has gone up a bit over the years as expected. We take our dog there and have never had a problem as the other reviewer stated. Nice folks and we are kind of partial since we were married in Oceanside. Nothing fancy about it, just real folks running a clean establishment. Again we love it, so don’t tell everyone. Shhhh!!! It’s a secret.

I came to these cabins with my partner. The lady in the office was a little offensive. She has very little knowledge about service animals and legal rights of the animal and their handler. She wanted lots of proof that the dog was actually a service animal. It didn’t matter that he wears a special tag, we had to pull out paperwork to prove that he was a «working» dog.
The cabins are very cute. The view is wonderful and your steps from the beach.
The rooms are clean and private. The TV is very small but that wasn’t a huge deal for us because we were there to be outside enjoying the beach. The beds were a little uncomfortable but not horrible. The town is very cute and everyone we talked to was very friendly. Despite the front desk woman’s rudeness we were going to book for the summer to bring our kids out for a couple days. We were told that they didn’t have any rooms available for a service animal. I guess we will give our money to another business that is willing to accommodate a veteran with a service animal according to the ADA.
Luckily we still enjoyed our stay despite the discrimination. We will go back to that beach but unfortunately will not stay at those cabins.

For an ocean view from your bed and a lovely breeze coming through the side window of your little cabin, $ 65 dollars a night is a STEAL! Shhh… I shouldn’t even be writing this review, I don’t want this place to be all booked up next time I want to take a last minute overnight-​er to the coast. 24 hours earlier we were scrambling to find a room someplace that would take 2 large sized dogs. Most places wanted over $ 150 a night and 10 – 20 for each dog. Here, $ 65 for the END cabin and $ 10 extra for the dogs. We had crates for them so they were allowed to be left in the room when we went out for meals, of course we checked first with the super nice management. They couldn’t have been more accommodating, we wanted as early a check-​in as possible. «How’s noon?» She asks. Perfect!
The room was super clean for allowing pets, there were other rooms pet designated as well, this room was the smallest of the bunch. The sheets were soft and comfy and the pillows just squishy enough. The only odd thing was the size of the TV. I think it was about 10 inches. No joke, but there was a DVD player hooked up to it. Who needs to watch TV though when this beautiful view is just outside. There was a microwave and fridge in the room, coffee maker and heater. The closet was 4 coat hooks on the wall, that was pretty funny. I wouldn’t want to stay in that room for a week, but as an overnight-​er, or even weekend it is perfect, especially the location right across the street from the beach. What luck to find this little gem in Oceanside! We’ll be back for sure and bring the baby gate for the dogs so they can hang out on the front porch to our cabin.
One final note– they have free WIFI!!! That is amazing since I was out of cell service and needed to get in contact with someone.

No bad surprises, just a set of well kept, modest old school cabins (the management is charming) a few steps away from one of the world’s great natural places (not to mention one of the world’s great parking lot views!).

Great little set of cabins that only have a small parking lot between them and the beach (and Three Arch Rocks National Wildlife Refuge). Cabins were very clean, cozy, and at $ 65 — a great bargain. They also accept pets for an extra $ 10, but you cannot leave you pet in the room alone (you knew who was not in there cabins because their pet was in their car staring out anxiously waiting for their owners return).
