Blue Drift | Forest & Beach Retreat

Summary:

Blue Drift is a peaceful coastal retreat in the Neahkahnie neighborhood just north of Manzanita. Surrounded by evergreens and minutes from miles of sandy beach, the home offers privacy, comfort, and easy access to hiking, beachcombing, shops, and restaurants. Spend your days exploring the coast, then return to a quiet setting made for rest and time together.



The Space:

Blue Drift brings together the features guests value most on the Oregon Coast: a quiet forest setting, convenient beach access, and a comfortable place to gather after a day outdoors.



The open living area connects the lounge, dining space, and fully equipped kitchen, allowing family and friends to spend time together without feeling crowded. Prepare breakfast before heading to the beach, share dinner after a day on the trails, or settle in for a quiet evening at home.



The bedrooms provide private places to recharge between adventures, making the home well suited for families, couples, or friends traveling together.



The location gives Blue Drift its character. The home sits among the trees in the Neahkahnie neighborhood, minutes from the beach and a short drive from downtown Manzanita. Walk the shoreline, hike Neahkahnie Mountain or Oswald West State Park, browse the shops along Laneda Avenue, or enjoy a meal in town before returning to the calm of the neighborhood.



Blue Drift offers a comfortable base for guests who want to explore the coast without staying amid the activity of a busier beach town.



Guest Access:

Parking is available on the property.



The Neighborhood:

Neahkahnie is a quiet coastal community between the forested slopes of Neahkahnie Mountain and the Pacific Ocean.



Manzanita Beach offers seven miles of sand for walking, beachcombing, kite flying, and sunset watching. Nearby trails at Neahkahnie Mountain and Oswald West State Park lead through coastal forest to sweeping ocean viewpoints.



Downtown Manzanita is a short drive away, with locally owned restaurants, cafés, galleries, and shops along Laneda Avenue. Nehalem Bay also offers kayaking, fishing, crabbing, and more ways to experience the outdoors.

We had a hard time contacting someone to get in since the passcode to the door wasn't working. 45 mins later someone contacted us to give us a code to get a set of keys since the door code system wasn't working. 44 mins with 2 very young kids tired of being in the car and cold.... we even sent a message no reasponds. We were left with half a roll of paper towls for 2 familys and 3 kids. No back up. Had to call around to see who was open on Christmas.... not how i wanted to spend a part of my Christmas especially when we paid to have those kind of amenities available. All rentals we have ever stayed at gave us 1 back up roll. The 1 ply toilet paper was really annoying. We ended up using twice as much. Your not saving monry by giving guest the cheap tp. The heater in the master bedroom needs yo be fixed; loud buzzing after a few mins of heat blowing. Woke my daughter abd myself up a few times through the night.... Other than that the place was beautiful and clean. We appreciate the kid toys. Other than the hiccups we enjoyed our time.
