Escape to The Seventh Wave, nestled on the edge of Yachats' cedar forest with an unobstructed ocean view. Watch whales from the protected second-story deck, and unwind by the free-standing fireplace as cherry red coals cast shadows on cedar walls.

About this property
Seventh Wave is the best wave!
It is The Seventh Wave now, but once upon a time it was a simple yellow cedar box named Elaine's Rocky Coast. Now with it's signature entrance and deck, it is transforming into what is one of the most architecturally recognizable homes in Yachats!
This house is nestled on the edge Yachats' cedar forest overlooking the rocky coast and a rare tide pool plateau; a calm bay view backed with tall tree covered mountains to the south; a ceaselessly changing sea and sky to match the mood that hopefully brought you here. Great for a family vacation; art-work; or to sit and write that novel you have been carrying around inside you.
Enjoy the crash of waves during stormy days while you watch whales in the stillness of a glass windscreen protected second story deck. At night, stretch out on the leather sofas and be lulled to sleep next to the crashing ocean.
DSL Broadband and a complete cable TV package with 5:1 surround sound in the downstairs media room will keep the kids busy, or the vacationer who must check in with work content!
The ocean view is unobstructed and there is only forest behind you. It is a five minute walk to an ocean of starfish and anemones, and a two block walk to Yachats shops, restaurants and another bottle of wine.
This house longs for a dozen families who think of it as a second home, treat it that way, and who are as enchanted with The Seventh Wave as it may be with them.
Living Room: TV, DVD, stereo, spectacular full-length views of the beautiful rocky coastline; 10'x 20' glass windscreen protected second story deck. Family Room: Big Screen TV, Broadband DSL, 5:1 Surround Sound; three sofas each opening into a single bed.

This place is great! the house is right on the water. tons of places to sit and watch the waves. fenced yard for dogs. was very clean. the company was amazing and went above and beyond. the kitchen has all the tools you need but no salt/oil etc so plan ahead. the location is basically the best - on the water but also walking distance to town. would 1000000% recommend and will for sure go back!!!
Overall we enjoyed our stay. Ocean views outstanding. Sunsets amazing. The home is older with a need for some updates and maintenance. However, these pale when you consider the view and proximity to downtown. Walking distance.

Perfect for a family or a group of friends. Nice combination of modern appointments and whimsical art, all in excellent condition. Well constructed and well kept. The window seat and the fireplace were favorite touches, among many well thought out touches. The view- AMAZING! The place had everything we needed and more, and the manager was very attentive to our needs.
Your house was perfect for us- grandparents, daughter and 2 grandkids. Loved the view and quirky vibe.
A few maintenance items:
Refrigerator freezer not cold, fan and coil may need cleaning.
Main electric wires to house have broken support cable- dangerous and could cause a fire.
Replacing weathered front door would make a better first impression.
Just FYI.
Mostly clean. Mold in upstairs bdrm shower. Two lights upstairs broken. Both tv’s were not connected and no directions on how to use the Roku tv. Sink in downstairs bathroom drained very slowly-we fixed it. No hair dryers. However location and views were amazing. Screens and blinds are needed upstairs. Blinding during sunset Also

Perfect spot with beach views, area to walk along the cliffs. We chose it for our family vacay with adult children, so three couples. Furry family included make it perfect. The fenced area in the back yard sure is handy for the dogs quick outdoor needs. The house is eclectic and fun!! The view is spectacular. The Fireplace is a must and so cozy. I wish I had brought some christmas lights along to festive up the outdoor patio. Although the weather was mostly rainy, we had a great time, made use of the excellent home theater space and the nice kitchen table for board games. Everyone had a beautiful Christmas. Thank you for sharing your unique home.

Reviewer Comments:
We rented this house for the third time for the location. There are definitely pros to the house, we like the ocean view, the idea of an outdoor space with an ocean view, it’s kind of unique and Yachats is a fun little town with a community feel. The cons this time were maybe outweighing the pros. The house and especially the deck need work. One of the large glass deck windows looked like it could just fall out. The deck was dirty, the ocean view windows were dirty, the chairs were broken, the bbq and tools are in bad condition. We had to clean and sweep. I really wish houses would furnish a few basic cleaning supplies. There were broken glass string lights with a burnt plug strung across the deck. We rented the house for the view I just wish we could have enjoyed it more. The outside needs some cleaning and repair. Also the “new” couches downstairs are pretty uncomfortable. I did reach out to management about garbage day and never got an answer to my question.

7th Wave Needs More than it's Location

Reviewer Comments:
Excellent location! View from the deck is amazing.Access to property and Yachats shops, beach, is great, however, the 7th Wave has been neglected and I would not recommend it to my friends. Here are my reasons:- First impressons: the front door has not seen paint/stain and is peeling wood. The couch next to the front door has an old sofa cushion with multiple tears - the stuffing obviously coming out.- The fireplace hangs from the ceiling in the upstairs living area and is a huge liability. Anyone using it could easily be burned - definitely not for active children.- One of the teflon pots had multiple layers of peeling teflon, not safe. - Lots of plates, wine glasses but only 5 bowls.- Kitchen 'puck' lighting undercounter not working, just a strip installed to compensate. We were a group of watercolor painters and moved a standing lamp and desk type lamp to help light our evening painting in the dining area.- Staircase light going to 2nd floor kit/bedroom/living was out upon arrival, Ocean Odessey came right away to change it. While there, they mentioned the door to the deck from the livingroom had a wonky lock and how not to get locked outside.The door lock was actually held together with duck tape! The window next to it must have had a broken seal (someone trying to get in the was locked out, possibly?), and had not been washed in a very long time. Could not see anything through it.- The person who slept in the 1st floor bedroom said it was dusty upon arrival. She used the humidifier to help the musty smell, and that was most successful.- 3 of the 6 deck chairs were unusable, as the webbing was broken.- The pillows were either old or very cheap, they were extremely flat. Our bedspread had tears along the edging.- Lastly, there was NO INFO book to intro us to the house, area, remotes, nothing. Downstairs TV lasted 20 minutes. Ocean Odessey said it was 'fried'.Note: I have pictures of All

Fantastic location and upper living area and kitchen were a great place to hang out and enjoy the view. The bedding was very worn - noticed a hole starting in a pillow case and one pillow was past using. The lower area is very dark and the property could use sprucing up all around.

We have been staying in this house for 4 consecutive summers and it is just an absolute joy to return every year. The property is very well maintained and very clean. The spacious kitchen is a bonus if you like to cook good meals and the "floating" fireplace it so wonderfully retro and provides excellent warmth on chilly beach nights! We love the upstairs living quarters that look out over the Pacific Ocean and enjoy whale watching and surfers in late August. It's a quick walk to all of Yachat's wonderful attractions including local restaurants, beachside walks, the Sunday Farmers market and the glorious Cape Perpetua marine gardens. The front deck is where we spend most of out time basking in the sun, chatting with locals and just taking in the relaxing vibe of this wonderful home. You won't want to pass up an opportunity to stay here during your visit to Yachats. (Except for late August when we will return!) 😆

Our family enjoyed our stay in this comfy two-story home. Separation of space meant morning people and night owls could enjoy themselves without waking others. Our dogs loved it here! Great location, right on the 804 trail and easy access to all the little village shops. If you're looking for a Pottery Barn-perfect beach cabin, keep scrolling. If you're a real family that likes to kick back and get comfy on vacation, stay here. We had a minor issue but Katie at the office was responsive and more than helpful. Great customer service. We're looking forward to returning.

Great house with a fun little window nook to gaze on the ocean. Just minutes from the ocean. Love having upstairs and downstairs areas so you can lend time together and have a little area to have space. Perfect when you have teenagers.
The location is excellent with trails right behind the house to all the cool shops in town. The view of the ocean is amazing and there are tide pools right there. Dog friendly was a major plus! The house is a little funky but very comfortable. Look forward to staying there again!
