A great and private space to enjoy your Oregon adventure!

We have stayed here twice and absolutely love that there is a large yard with a privacy fence. In addition, the beach is only a block away which is great. There are so many fun things to do in the area and we thoroughly enjoyed a sandboarding experience behind the Fred Meyers in Florence. I would highly recommend staying here!

Great spot!

This place was great! A short walk right to the beach. Plenty of towels available as well as pillows. If I had one minor suggestion it would be to have instructions on how to use the tv and the recliner. lol. We would definitely stay here again!

The Prefect Getaway

This is the cutest house in a perfect location with great restaurants nearby and the beach right around the corner. Perfect spot for one or two couples. Fenced in yard and a firepit. Pictures online do not do it justice. Will definitely be back. Turns out I know the artist of the paintings inside too! Cool!

Great stay after a Rouge River trip

We floated the Rouge River 4 days prior to our stay at The Fortress. The lovely and dog friendly home and yard had everything we needed. Most important was a secure place to drop our boat and trailer. Plenty of secure and safe space for 2 trucks and 2 trailers. Walking distance to beach was epic. Quick drive to Old Town and all major restaurants. Fred Myers close and convienient. Touring Sea Lion caves, beaching it at Haceta and visiting Old Town Florence was our one day adventures. Ohhhh, get ice cream and taffy at BJ’s. Easy to find location and super cozy house. Awesome stay!!

Private and perfect for quick trip

Smooth and easy check in process. The privacy of the property was great for our family and our dog! The house was super clean and had necessities minus groceries but Fred Meyer was less than 10 mins down the road. Beach was a short walk down 2 blocks, which was perfect. We enjoyed staying here.

Great for a small family or a few old friends

I stayed with my daughter so two women alone for the weekend. The Fortress is just that!! We felt so safe and secure! We had a great relaxing time. The place is so private and secluded but yet surrounded by neighbors. It is close to everything in Florence. We had a great time walking down to the beach, the directions on the inside of the door were perfect, I just snapped a picture and away we went. It was very easy to find. Plenty of towels and bedding.

So So

The house was clean, which was very nice. However, there was a very strong smell...cleaning or disinfecting products? We live two doors down and I was unable to even sit on the front porch. The fence was sturdy and there was a nice dog bowl for water. However, the grounds had a lot of debris...LOTS of cigarette butts (we picked up many to make sure the dog wouldn't eat them), and other bits of trash. The bad outweighed the good so we won't be using this location again.

This home is a comfortable palace.

This home was absolutley fantastic! It was the perfect size, with enough space for a small group, but cozy enough to enjoy a epic thunderstorm with a glass of wine. The gate gives you a great sense of privacy. You are a short walk to the beach, and a minute drive to the local pub for drinks and freindly locals. My husband and I drove from SLC to renew our vows on our 10 year anniversary. Your home was the pefect choice. The kitchen is well equipped, the bed was comfortable and the fire pit was enjoyable. The home also had a MASSIVE dvd library. The only slight drawback is the address is hard to see in the dark, maybe some reflective tape will be helpful. Otherwise a wonderful stay. We will absolutly come back again, only with our dogs!

Comfortable and dog friendly

The Fortress is a nice little place. Very clean, Comfortable, dog friendly, and close to lots of fun things to do. It had all the things we needed from kitchen items to crabbing gear. The securely fenced yard provides privacy and a safe place for the dog. As someone who often travels with my dog, I found this to be the most dog friendly vacation rental I’ve ever stayed in.

Beach house getaway

We really enjoyed our stay here , I have two kids and two dogs and it was perfect for the beach , a two min walk and we was on heceeta beach , having the yard fully enclosed with a fence meant I could relax knowing my kids and dogs couldn’t escape . The house was lovely , clean and inviting . Got good use out of the fire pit , made s’mores which the kids love . All round perfect few days . Thank you . Oh and Florence old twin was wonderful and we visited the sea lion cave s as well which was super cool .

Perfect private getaway

We loved the tall completely fenced yard and all the puppy amenities! There is a fire pit and crab pots. It was just minutes away from the Suislaw River where we love to kayak as well! Immaculate house with three king beds (2 bdrm) and beautiful ocean life decor!
