The Driftwood

The Driftwood is a gorgeous home that lives up to its spectacular location on a cliff above Bella Beach, a dynamic, pristine section of coastline framed by Cascade Head and Boiler Bay south of Lincoln City. You enter the home to a serene foyer leading to a suite of bedrooms on the ground floor, each one painted in shimmering cool sea-glass greens, blues or greys, with premium mattresses and bedding, high ceilings and solid construction promising sound, rejuvenating sleep. Two king suites include beautifully appointed bathrooms with walk-in showers; one opens to a covered porch with a hot tub overlooking the sea. Ascending the stairs, you arrive at the heart of the home, an elevated great room with banks of large, traditional windows with soaring views over the rooftops of the surrounding homes and out to miles of magnificent, sparkling ocean. A deck, with two Adirondack chairs, extends off the front of the home like the prow of a ship, giving you unobstructed views of coastline and down to the dynamic, rolling surf of Bella Beach. A dining table and chairs draw you outdoors to the roar of the ocean and the hiss of foam on the sand, whether for bracing morning coffee or drinks in the glow of evening sunsets.

The great room is thoughtfully designed as the optimal gathering space, with smaller-group zones on sofas around the fireplace, window seats, three dining areas or the two cushioned chairs in an alcove adjoining the kitchen. Sparkling turquoise ceramic tiles grace the upscale kitchen, which features stainless steel appliances and a large dining island. A stone-fronted gas fireplace will warm your guests as they watch the large flat-screen TV above, sampling from a huge library of DVDs in a living room alcove and in the dedicated media room, with raised sofa platform and another huge flat-screen.

This immaculate, beautifully appointed home will please the most discriminating guests with its traditional construction and thoughtful design by Oksenholt Construction Company, luxury details and stunning location. Enjoy the private Bella Beach neighborhood, with its reinvention of Cape Cod architecture, a playground for children and the C'est la Vie Cafe. You're close to Lincoln City, the Salishan Lodge Golf Course, oceanfront Depoe Bay and all the natural beauty and enjoyable attractions of Newport.

Driftwood-excellent!

Leslie S.

5 bedrooms with 6 Q or K beds total! The view from the deck was amazing, hot tub well maintained and ready for us! The kitchen was large (a little lacking in baking trays and cutting boards but we made do), huge dining table and lovely gas fireplace. We had trouble negotiating the tv/cable and remotes (better instructions needed...) the location is great and beach was easily accessible.

Manager Response
Leslie thank you for your review of The Driftwood! We are thrilled you had an excellent stay! Nothing beats relaxing in the hot tub and enjoying the amazing ocean views! Hope you come stay again soon!

Beautiful Bella Beach Retreat

Audrey H.

Our family of 14 people celebrated our 50th wedding anniversary by spending the weekend at Bella Beach, where The Driftwood is located. It is a lovely house, furnished with everything a person could need. The kitchen had plenty of dishes, utensils, cooking supplies and there were many games, movies, puzzles to use. The hot tub and theater room were also enjoyed by all.

Perfect for multiple families

Chris D.

This property was perfect for our family (Parents and families of 3 siblings). We wanted to do a trip together before some of the teenagers went off to college. It was everything we hoped it would be. The house itself was clean and very well kept. We also really liked the location. It was a short drive to Lincoln City and Depoe Bay. There were daily conversations around the topic of, "Can you believe how great this is?" Don't hesitate to stay in this home!

Manager Response
We are happy to hear you were able to have a wonderful trip with your family before the teenagers head off to college! It is great that everyone enjoyed The Driftwood! Thank you for the review Chris! Hope you and your family come visit the coast again soon!

Oceanfront Bella Beach Home

Kirk B.

A very functional, spacious and enjoyable home for a large family gathering. Just steps away from the beach and what a view! Lots of room for our group of 10. It has everything you need to fully enjoy your stay. Family members described it as the best beach house they've ever stayed in. Just minutes away from Newport and Lincoln City. Definitely recommend it!!

Manager Response
Thank you for the review Kirk. We love to hear The Driftwood described as "the best beach house they've ever stayed in"!! It is great you and your family had a wonderful time! Hope you come stay with us again soon!

Family vacation

We really enjoyed the house three generations with plenty of room. Slight issue the first night and Meredith Lodging was amazing. No matter the day or time they were a phone call away. Helpful and understanding of our needs. Home is beautiful, more then the pictures can express. Like other reviews... The host NEEDS more pots and pans.

Manager Response
Thank you for the review Heather. We are thrilled that you and your family had such a wonderful time at The Driftwood! Thank you for the feedback on the pans. I have passed the recommendation along to our property services team. Come stay again soon!

GREAT PLACE FOR A FAMILY REUNION

CINDY J.

The Driftwood is a beautiful and comfortable home for reconnecting with family and/or friends. Incredible views, the rooms are painted is soft and inviting colors. The only issue we had was with the gas BBQ. Thinking they might need to replace that.

Best on the beach!

Joan M.

We enjoyed this rental very much with our children and grandchildren. This home is equipped with lots of videos, sand play equipment, throw blankets, plastic wine glasses, mugs and otherwise well equipped kitchen. (Although the can opener could be upgraded!) We enjoyed the corner game play table and the games stocked. The hot tub was used each day, we only missed a fire pit for Smore's, but, there was a stack of wood for a small beach fire. We are booking again for next Fall!Excellent location and access to the beach nearby!

The Driftwood- a great family vacation home!

Colleen C.

We had a lovely stay at this beautiful home. It is spacious with plenty of bedrooms & bathrooms for our entire family including all the grandchildren. It was very clean and well taken care of. We had a gorgeous view of the ocean and within just a short walk, the ocean beach. We had an issue with the kitchen sink but called Meredith Lodging and they responded quickly. Thank you to the owners for sharing your home with our family and to Meredith Lodging for all you did!

Manager Response
Thank you for your detailed and glowing review, Colleen! The Driftwood is an amazing home in a wonderful area.

Beautiful View

sharon g.

It was a lovely clean home. We enjoyed the large family space with the big dining table we could all get around. The view was amazing and we loved watching so many boats coming and going. When we arrived one of the beds was broken and some of the others were not very comfortable. We called Meredith Lodging and they sent someone fairly quickly to repair the broken bed. The trash was completely full when we arrived so we called about that and again someone was sent to take care of it.

Manager Response
Thank you for the review, Sharon! We appreciate the feedback. We do our best to quickly address any issues that arise. Feel free to look us up when planning the next getaway!

Oregon 17

Nora A.

We were very satisfied with the property. Only issue was -The way to the beach was not close as expected. There was a Stairway close that was under construction if allowed to use would be excellent. Another way was navigable but scary as step missing and climbing down the rocks at lower decent. Or the longer walk through neighborhood but not in sight of house when arriving on beach.We loved Kite flying and our Fire pit cookout on beach. Weather was superb in early July.

Manager Response
Thank you for the review, Nora! We appreciate the feedback. We are glad you enjoyed your stay! Feel free to look up Meredith Lodging when planning your next getaway!

Family Vacation

Marilyn K.

Outstanding vacation rental for this 4 family vacation. Plenty of gathering space as well as private space. Beautiful view and loved going to sleep listening to the sound of the ocean. Equipped with everything we needed including an outdoor grill which was not listed. We so enjoyed grilling the fresh caught fish. Super location. So much to see and do for this Midwestern family: Beach, hiking, sightseeing, great restaurants, shopping. Loved coming home to this house. Meredith Lodging was responsive to our requests. THANKS!!!

Aweome place!

This was a beautiful home. We had plenty of room to spread out and the furnishings were comfortable. I was sad to leave. The view was gorgeous and we even saw a few whales from the deck. Loved it!

Manager Response
Thank you so much Cherylynn for reviewing your stay at The Driftwood! It is hard to leave a beautiful home and a good time isn't it! And spotting whales just makes it that more special! Please come back and see us again soon for another perfect get away to the Beach!

Depot Bay Couples Retreat

Mani B.

What a beautiful home! This home has the perfect setup for multiple couples. It is so hard to find a rental with 5 bedrooms with King and Queen beds, this rental house was a great fit. The upstairs living area is beautifully decorated and appointed, when you look out the sliding door you feel like you are right on top off he ocean! How fabulous to watch the stormy ocean crash against the cliff side below the house. There are beach access stairs close by in each direction, when the tide is out you can walk for miles. Close to the charming town of Depot Bay and easy shopping or dining in Lincoln City or Newport. We will definitely stay here again!

Manager Response
We completely agree, Mani. This is an AMAZING property for multiple families and groups. The beach access was recently updated as well! We look forward to hosting you again soon.

Dream Multi-Family Reunion

We spent four amazing nights at the Driftwood with our daughter and son-in-law along with our best friends and their two children and grandchildren. The house was the nicest that we have ever stayed in with great open space for gathering and incredible views of the ocean. The kitchen was remarkably well stocked with silverware and dishes for our large group. The home is beautifully decorated. We would say here again if we return to the Oregon coast.The kids particularly enjoyed the media room. A fun time was had by all!!

Manager Response
Thanks for your review, Robert! The Driftwood is an exceptional home, and we are happy to hear that it met--and exceeded!- your expectations! It is the perfect place to gather with family and enjoy all the Oregon Coast has to offer! Thanks for choosing Meredith Lodging--we hope you'll stay with us again!

Top Notch Oceanside Retreat

The Driftwood is a beautiful home in a great location. It's fresh, modern, wonderfully decorated, and spacious. Situated in the darling Bella Beach area, easy driving distance to Lincoln City for food and shopping. The hot tub is fantastic and the view from upstairs balcony is gorgeous. We got a front row seat to a huge group of sea lions jumping and diving in the surf. Only a couple issues with TV's in the house, a workmen came out and fixed one and the other was supposed to be fixed by the office, but it never was. A great stay and look forward to returning!

Manager Response
Hi Annette! We are happy to hear that you enjoyed your stay at The Driftwood and even got to see frolicking Sea Lions! We look forward to your next stay and hope that you enjoy the rest of your winter.

Perfect for Multiple Families

Susan W.

We had a great time at the Driftwood. This is an annual trip for kids, parents, grandparents, aunt and uncle, so we need a big place that accommodates all. This is probably the best house we've been to in years. Plenty of room to spread out, but still spend time together. We got lucky on the weather and the kids were on the beach every day. The kitchen handled an early Thanksgiving dinner easily - the double ovens really helped. Lots of dishes and a dining room table that fit us all. This is a great house!

Manager Response
Thanks for your review, Susan! The Driftwood is a gorgeous, well-appointed home and we are thrilled to hear that it was perfectly suited for you and your family! We appreciate you sharing your experience, and we look forward to welcoming you and your family back to make more memories at The Driftwood!

Gorgeous house, upgraded amenities

Jennifer H.

We had 5 families with several children. There was plenty of space to spread out and enjoy! The great space upstairs made it easy for everyone to gather. The beds were very cozy and the bathrooms beautiful!
My one comment would be that the beach isn't super kid friendly. It's gorgeous, but between high and low tide it doesn't create a very big beach with space between the sea wall and the waves crashing. It was just a bit nerve-wracking. During high tide the waves were actually crashing at the base of the stairs down to the beach.

Manager Response
Thank you Jennifer for reviewing your stay at The Driftwood! We are so happy that you enjoyed your time in the home and that everyone liked the house! Yes, the ocean is a wild and wonderful force and in the winter, the high tides can take up most of some beaches! We look forward to your next stay here at the wild and wonderful beach. 🙂

Amazing Place!

Kelley H.

The house is absolutely beautiful! So much room for everyone, clean and wonderful ocean views. We loved the hot tub and enjoyed our morning coffee on the patio while taking in the sights and sounds of the Pacific. This is the perfect get away for a large group in the adorable community of Bella Beach

Manager Response
Hi Kelly, So glad to hear you and your guest had a great time! The Driftwood is definitely one of our favorites, with the ocean front view and hot tub, it makes for the ideal home for a relaxing vacation! We look forward to you vacationing with us again.

Weekend beach trip

Michael S.

We had a great time at the Driftwood. The house (as of October 2016) is in fantastic condition. The main floor is very open and great for a large group. The reverse layout (living space upstairs) results in a bit of noise in the bedrooms but this isn't a huge issue. The house comes with a huge selection of DVDs and games (kids enjoyed this). My only real complaint was the lack of a stereo of any sort but we'd just plan to bring our own in the future (just a bit strange that a large beach home wouldn't have a way to play music in the living area other than through the TV).

Manager Response
Thank you Michael for your review of The Driftwood! It sounds like you not only enjoyed the home with your group, but that is accommodated your needs which is wonderful! We look forward to your return stay and hope you have a splendid rest of your 2016!

A Lovely Home in a Beautiful Location

We had a wonderful time staying at the Driftwood recently. The house is new and beautiful, with a fantastic view of the ocean. We had a large group that maxed out the property limits, so be aware that it is best used for groups of 12 or less, in our opinion. We love Bella Beach, but parking is an issue for large groups no matter where you stay there.

Manager Response
Thank you for reviewing your stay at The Driftwood! We are so pleased that you enjoyed the home and I am sure that future renters will appreciate your comments on how careful to be when parking in and around Bella Beach!

Labor Day getaway.

Absolute delight to be right on the water! Coffee each morning from the hot tub watching the waves roll in was exactly what we needed. Nice, clean and spacious home. No cable TV but hey.....you are at the ocean! Shouldn't need it anyway.

Thank you Brad and we agree about the TV! So glad you had a wonderful time at The Driftwood! We hope you return and stay with us soon!

Home decor lovely, beds and linens wonderful...WD40 should be used after every stay...doors all over the house squealing, upstairs floors dirty, and kitchen needs some large frying/wok pans.

Excellent, lovely beach home.

The bride's family arrived from all over the U.S. and Phillipines; and were thrilled to see their new beach home for the week. With accommodations for everyone and hot tub with a view of the ocean; this was an exceptional location and facility. We were even able to hold the reception in the kitchen great room. The kitchen is well stocked for a large group. One visitor even mentioned the house would be perfect for a company off-site. We had a wonderful time and everyone was impressed with the home and location.

Beautiful home!

Susanne W.

We chose this home for our Girls Weekend of R and R. There were eleven of us and it was perfect. The whole downstairs is bedrooms and each one is great to pick from -and there are 3 bathrooms to share with another one upstairs -which for our group worked great! I like grand entrances, which coming in on the ground floor in this home where all the bedrooms are, there isn't really that feeling, 😉 but it is a brand new home and if you head up the stairs it opens up in to the main area and the color choices and design are beautiful, beachy, and modern.! A problem with so many coast house rentals is they are not updated interior design-wise and they feel like you are staying at an early 90's retirement resort. 😉 This home feels like a high-end beach home. Kitchen is awesome. Just not a lot of kitchen gadgets. View of the Ocean was huge, and got amazing photographs, but not a lot of beach once you walk down the block a bit and head down. We didn't mind at all- plenty of walkable beaches down the strip. Other then finding a home that the back door literally opens up to the beach, this is the best one I have found in Depot Bay!

Manager Response
Susanne, thank you for your review of The Driftwood! We are so thrilled to hear that you and your girlfriends were able to spend time in this stunning home! The views and location are terrific and the interior is comfortable and gorgeous! So glad you were all able to spend some time here and we welcome you back on your next trip to the Oregon coast!

Best house we've stayed at!

Beautiful home, with wonderful view of the ocean. In a great, quiet community. Things to note, there is a BBQ (though it isn't listed in amenities) and the main living area is upstairs, which provides the great view, but requires all guests be able to do stairs.

Driftwood Vacation

Walt and Pam T.

House was amazing. Great view, lots of windows, beautifully appointed, clean, well furnished, lots of room, great kitchen, dining and living room size.
We would stay again.
Easy walk to the beach, park for little children
Dining chair feet need padding as noise can be high in bedrooms below.
Garbage cans were full on arrival, looks like they were not emptied from the previous week of guests.

09/05/2015 ~ Website

Great place to stay - Highly recommended

Kaoru L.

We stayed in the house for 3 nights, and everyone was very impressed with cleanness, and how the interior was immaculately and tastefully decorated with retro modern flair. The kitchenware, towels and bedding materials were well stocked and they were all brand new. Our kids enjoyed the great selections of DVDs. The ocean view from the top and the lower level decks + hot tub was gorgeous, and the beach access was just one house down. The house was everything we had dreamed, and we cant wait to stay at the house again in future!

08/27/2015 ~ Website

Beautiful house great location

Crystal S.

When we arrived to the house at four pm, the cleaning lady was just finishing up but we waited for her for about 15min. The house was amazing; high ceilings georgous views from both upstairs and downstairs. The theater room was a big hit abd extra points for supplying extra soft blankets. The kitchen was well stocked with plenty of plates cups bowls ect. The bedrooms were plenty big for everyone and the master room is to die for!
Ok so for the not so good... The garbage cans outside were so full we could put any of our garbage in it. And they only supply ONE garbage bag and ONE roll of toilet paper in rach bathroom for your entire stay. Going to the store is a must! The comforter downstairs smelled like BO. I think it's important to mention that you can hear EVERYTHING going on upstairs from all the downstairs bedrooms. If a chair was moved in the kitchen you can clearly hear it from both master bedrooms.
All in all we really enjoyed the house! The location was great and we all had a good time!

Manager Response
Thanks for your patience with housekeeping, Crystal! The Driftwood is a large, wonderful home and we're so glad you found it to your liking! In future, don't hesitate to call our office about excessive trash--we'll be glad to send someone to empty it. We hope you'll be back soon to enjoy the amazing views from that incredible home!

Everything was great, but the outside garbage cans were full when we arrived and never emptied.

Charming neighborhood

Rebecca S.

Our party included adult siblings, a 12-year-old and a toddler. Something important to note is that the rooms are very "equivalent" in size and proximity to baths. The master, of course had its own bath and a balcony, which gave it more intrinsic value. Overall, the home had everything except a bottle opener and coffee filters and dish soap. Honestly, we were pretty shocked that guests had to provide so many of the incidentals, especially considering the high booking price and extremely high housekeeping fee. Who would know which size and shape filter to buy ahead of time? The best part of our trip was the glass blowing at Jennifer Sears and the kite festival! Lincoln City was not really as lovely as its chamber photos however.... there is very little that we could walk to ... no restaurants near beaches, no quaint streets and the house was several miles from LC so every tiny trip had to be made in a CAR! There were Lots of yoga opportunities at the Cultural Center, which was a huge gem in this town. Besides daily yoga, they also had dance classes, a farmers market and an awesome gift shop with knowledgable docents and local, very affordable art! Free coffee and agate stones too! I would suggest that the house description include more about the location ... coming out of the entrance, you HAVE to make a U-turn about 1/4 mile down on the highway. It felt very treacherous each tine we headed into Lincoln City. It would be a service also, to include a welcome pack or at least shampoo for guests who fly in and can't necessarily plan a grocery trip before their first night. I loved the house, but the amenities were not there like I expected for the price.

Grinder reunion 2015

Gail G.

There were 16 in this house with several more in another home. The great room was wonderful for all of us to congregate for meals and games...and the view was spectacular.

Awesome home!

We had a girls cousin reunion. The house was over the top awesome. There were 8 of us and room for many more. Top of the line appliances and the beds were so comfortable! I wish we could have stayed longer to enjoy it more.

Manager Response
Over-the-top awesome is a great way to describe The Driftwood, Shirley! What a great place for a cousins' reunion! We hope you can plan a longer stay next time--and bring more cousins, too!

Best rental we ever stayed in!

The home is very well equipped. Linens were great. And oh the view is worth every penny you pay to stay here. We watched the whales for two days. And the tide pools are great. The coffee shop down the road roasts their own beans and so friendly. Will be back.
