Yurt on the Bay - Bay City, OR

For a unique and truly one-of-a-kind Oregon Coast camping adventure, look no further than this secluded one bedroom Bay City vacation yurt right on Tillamook Bay! Once used by Central Asian nomads, the modern yurt combines classic design elements like lattice walls and radial rafters, but here, you'll also have luxurious amenities like a gas fireplace, a cottage-like front porch for relaxing with a mug of tea, free WiFi throughout, and a private hot tub! You'll also have a gorgeous 180-degree view of the bay. And of course, not only are dogs welcome, but the owners don't mind at all if you want to bring your fishing boat as well.

A spacious, open floor plan includes a classic domed ceiling, hardwood floors, shelves filled with books, a cozy gas fireplace, and a futon. You can sit back and get comfortable after a day of exploring the area for a fun movie night. There's both a DVD player and a VCR, as well as a library of discs and tapes to choose from. There are even games to spread out on the coffee table and play.

A basic kitchen has a refrigerator, stovetop range, microwave, and a coffeemaker - everything you'll need for simple vacation meals. Whip up a pot of pasta or pan fry some fresh rockfish. And when it's time to eat, the wonderfully distinct oak pub table will be ready to set with fine dishes and tableware. In addition, there's a charcoal grill outside for burgers, chicken, steak, and more, as well as a fire pit, and a picnic table. You can sit down to an outdoor meal and watch sunset cascade radiating light across Tillamook Bay. And after dinner, hop in the brand-new, five-person hot tub for an unparalleled stargazing spot.

The separate bedroom has a comfortable, handmade alder queen bed set under a clear dome to watch the moon and starry night pass overhead. The full bathroom includes a shower, lovely vessel sink, and fluffy towels - there are even warm, cozy robes to borrow. This yurt will comfortably sleep up to four guests, as well as two dogs (with a nightly pet fee and a weight limit of 25 pounds).

Outdoor enthusiasts will be able to spot heron, egrets, and other water birds right outside the front door or fish for local rockfish right in the bay. Ten minutes away in Tillamook, golfers can tee-off at the Alderbrook Golf Course and the Cape Meares Lighthouse, Octopus Tree, and a number of sandy beaches are just over 15 miles away. Beach comb the day away! And of course there's always cheese tasting at the Tillamook Cheese Factory - only three miles from this centrally-located coastal spot.

Looking for a place to eat? Just off Highway 101 in Bay City, you'll find the Fish Peddler Restaurant at Pacific Oyster. Seafood just does not get any fresher. Feast on oyster stew, fish tacos, and clam chowder, then head back to your bayfront yurt and make dessert s'mores out at the fire pit. There are also a number of other dining options just a bit farther south - the Schooner Restaurant & Lounge, Old Oregon Smokehouse, and the new Pacific Restaurant in Tillamook to name a few.

Whether it's a romantic weekend for two, a honeymoon, or a family getaway, this unique Bay City vacation rental is full of charm! Whether you put your feet up and relax under the domed ceiling, stargaze while drifting off to sleep at night, or birdwatch from the front porch, you'll have a memorable time at this wonderful yurt on the bay.
