Whaleshead Beach Resort

I wanted to buy a place here until I did some research only to find the high monthly fees that didn't cover much. No trash pick up. Getting rid of the landscaping folks. I see a community fighting for their lease rights because a new corporate owner is nickel and diming them. Update, go to kawal .net/members/cabinowners.htm (Cabin Owners Page) to read the current comments. So answering manager person, is trash pick up, as well as water, sewer, cable, and landscaping upkeep in the leases?

The southern Oregon coast is stunning. I have been fortunate to travel fairly extensively and it's way up there on my list.

Whaleshead Beach Resort though... woof. The view from our Cabin U-8, (Cabin in the Clouds) was outstanding. The cabin itself though- is just not rent-ready. Screens are broken so bugs got in, blinds are broken or missing so at night you're wide open to your neighbors. A water main in the park broke and we were out of water for an afternoon. Our fridge leaked water so we had to find a bucket to use to collect it all. All of these concerns were sent to our contacts with Vacasa and we received 0 assistance. The response we always get is "sorry for any inconvenience". I own a few rental properties and I'd have city inspectors and fines if I rented a unit in this condition.

If I can't book a stay then you are losing business!

Loved our stay at Whaleshead! Our cabin met all of our needs. It was a bit hard to find as we showed up after dark, and couldn’t find a directory map posted anywhere. So I will leave one here for others ?

The A-24 unit was a DUMP. The hot tub was full of mildew and wreaked, the back door wouldnt latch shut, and there is exposed live electrical wire our daughter was shocked from touching before we noticed the health threat. This was a neglected dump.

Also the owner of the property should be upset these reviews occur. Perhaps this will cause a change to happen. Or I guess they may possibly suffer financial struggles later as these types of reviews will continue.

Great stay!

We have stayed at c-7 Creekside before as a couple. This time we brought another couple with us to see how well the unit works for a group of four using the main cabin and the annex. The close access to Whaleshead Beach and the whole Boardman Scenic Corridor was fantastic. Overall it was a great experience.

The main cabin was clean and comfortable. We used the well appointed kitchen to cook meals and everything we needed was provided.

The annex was great and it was super nice to have another bedroom that was not attached to the main cabin. The hot tub was a great addition to have. It was clean and well taken care of.

Altogether we had a great stay and hope to return!

I was very pleased to see a few plant based options on the menu. I had the Beet salad, and it did not disappoint. It was loaded with all things yummy, blueberries, avocado, walnuts, beets, carrots, and the vinaigrette dressing is delicious! The garlic fries are also yummy! The view is amazing ?

We had our wedding reception here and it was such a great experience! The food was delicious, staff was so warm and friendly, and the venue was cozy and cute. Stephanie was also very communicative and easy to work with, the whole planning process was totally stress free. It was the perfect place to wrap up our wedding day!

Whaleshead was sold and is now managed by Vacasa. Customer service is non existent. The furnace failed and there was no heat for the bedrooms and bathrooms. The only heat was the heat pump in the living room, a long way from the hall and bedrooms in this large cabin.

I've been coming to Whaleshead for over 15 years and had some good times there. That's all over. Now you can't book your cabin online or get the on premises maintenance man to fix the heater or hot tub or hot water heater. There is no staff on site. Good luck if you book here.

This restaurant should be named “The View” because the only thing better than the view here is the food and the staff! I was driving north on the coast and got hungry for lunch but couldn’t find anything interesting to eat in Brookings so I searched for nearby restaurants on google and found Stephanie’s. I’m glad I did because this place has an amazing menu with an equally amazing view. I ended up meeting the owner and talking with her about the area, she gave me some great information on hiking nearby and places to stay. She was so wonderful and full of positive energy that I decided to book a nearby Air BnB so I could hike the nearby coast for a couple of days. I ended up coming back here two more times and each time I was blown away by the food and the service. I will be coming back to this area of the coast with my wife and kids because of the experience I had here. Thanks Stephanie!!!
