Oceanside Oregon Beachfront Vacation Rental

Property Description: Welcome to Grazelza Gunch House, a family retreat only 1 block to the beach with a hot tub and private, fenced yard!  This sun-filled, 1,500 sq.ft. home is located only 90 minutes from Portland in the unique village of Oceanside.

This home is as suitable for a romantic getaway as it is for a gathering of old friends or a family retreat. Have a huge group? One of our other homes, Hale Kaalawai, is right around the corner.  Another, Castle Cove, is on the up-hill end of a trail that's across the street.  "Ocian in View" is about 4 blocks away.  Book two (or more) of them and enjoy a discounted rate!

Ask us for our more detailed list of amenities before your stay, to avoid packing any unnecessary stuff in the car!  We have very many items that are not listed below.

The beds (including the sofa beds) have very high quality mattresses, including cushy Memory Foam (hypoallergenic) toppers and a multitude of pillows (including contoured Memory Foam) for extra-dreamy dreams. One of the master bedroom queen beds is a Select Comfort SLEEP NUMBER © bed with two remotes, so no squabbles over the setting!

All sheets are either pima cotton, Egyptian cotton or flannel, with a 300 thread count or higher. All blankets, throws, quilts and comforters are either cotton (chenille for baby), hypoallergenic down or polar fleece. The robes that we provide for hot tub purposes are 100% cozy cotton.

Our bathrooms are stocked with incredibly soft and thirsty towels, quality TP (no sandpaper), cruelty free and biodegradable hand soap, bath/shower gel and lotion. There are also special furnishings, towels and toiletries for every stage of little one, from newborn to pre-teen.

The kitchen is set-up, with everything that you forgot you needed, to prepare either a light snack or an intricate meal! There are: a dishwasher, a range with a decent oven, a built-in microwave and a fridge with an ice maker.  Your little ones will enjoy using their own set of colorful (dishwasher safe) Melamine dishes, bowls, tippy cups and utensils.  If the weather be foul (let's face it, this is Oregon) fire-up the indoor S'Mores "stovelet" - under adult supervision, of course!

There are 3 TV's with cable and DVD players (the living room has surround sound), a portable CD and cassette tape player, 2 CD/MP3 player alarm clocks (one has an input for your portable CD player and the other a built-in CD player, both have an input for your portable MP3 players) and, we take great pride in our fabulous collection of games! For now only high speed dial-up Internet access is available, through a local ISP. We are waiting for wireless companies to catch-on to our market!

The side yard is perfect for croquet (set provided, please treat it kindly). The fully-fenced back yard is described below.

Upstairs:

The L.H. Franistat Room (master bedroom) has a romantic deck for two, with an ocean view, vaulted ceilings and a sitting loft that also has an ocean view!

There are two queen sized beds in this room, one of which is a Select Comfort SLEEP NUMBER© bed! 

The shower bathroom is detached, with a multi-setting shower head.

The living room has a firm sofa that converts to a queen sized bed (it is NOT a fold-out!) and has a built-in chaise.

There is a propane fueled fireplace, which comes in handy during Winter storms (in case the power goes out) and for chilly nights.

The 3 TVs have cable and DVD (CD) players (with surround sound in the living room for movie lovers).

Please read the descriptive text on the right for details about the kitchen. 

The dining room table pulls-away from the wall to seat 6 (4 adults can eat comfortably at the coffee table) and the toddler table seats two.

There is a "peek-a-boo view" of the ocean from the living room, the adjoining upper deck and the reading loft.

Downstairs:

The Flizzip Room (family room) has cushy
seating on a modern sleeper sofa, a large
ottoman for game boards plus two side tables that can be pulled-out for coloring or dominos, a comfy reading chair, portable CD and cassette tape player and entertainment center with cable TV/DVD.

You are also welcome to use  the inflatable mattress that is available, upon request, for a $40 fee.

We have a rechargeable walkie-talkie set that can be used if some of you go to the beach and some stay behind (cell phones won't work there).

Your kids will enjoy the fun extras in the many closets (stored so that guests without kids will not stumble over them).

The P. Parfine Room (kids' room) has bunk beds and a twin sleigh bed. The changing table is stored in the closet.

Also stored in various closets are: a bassinet, infant swing, infant carry seats and a portable crib (which can be moved to any room for use).

The G. Gafoo Room (guest room) has a full sized fold-down (not out) couch, toys and a great rocking chair. The screen is the door.

The jetted tub bathroom is down the hall, which also has a stacked washer and dryer.

We provide enough cuddly (but covering) cotton robes for our guests to enjoy the hot tub off of the wrap-around porch in back.

In back, a picnic table under the cherry tree is perfect for Summer BBQs. 

If a chill hits the air, fire-up the wood burning outdoor fireplace and cover-up with a fleece throw.

There is parking for a max. of 4 cars in front of the home.

Our Guests are Important to Us!  We have a portable ionic air purifier in the home and use a chemical reducing filtration system in the hot tub. All unused outlets are plugged and dangerous items are stored out of little reach. Cabinets with heavy items have stops installed. No cords will be hanging from anything heavy for curious hands to pull. We keep removable baby gates, baby and toddler friendly toys and first aid items stored in the closets, for use while your family is here.

The things you will not find stocked in our home, so bring them with you if you can't live without them, are very many disposable items. We try to be as ecologically responsible as a busy family can be, so we do not stock items like paper towels (we use washable cloths instead) or disposable plastic bags (we use reusable containers instead). If you are familiar with composting, feel free to add to the pile! We also ask that you leave your unused plastic bags with us instead of throwing them away.

We do not use harsh chemical cleaners in our home. We special order most cleaning products from NZ, because of their environmentally friendly approach. Otherwise, our cleaning products and toiletry items are as cruelty-free and Earth friendly as we can find. Sadly, bleach must be used in the jetted bath tub and chemicals (such as chlorine) in the hot tub to be safe enough for our guests to use. We continue to look for better alternatives, however.

You will be asked to remove your shoes at the door in this home. There are shoe mats provided near both entries.
