About this property

The Lily Pad - just a hop to everything coastal

This charming home offers a jumping off point to all the area’s attractions and a homey atmosphere to hunker down in at night. It’s just a short hop to Port Orford’s beaches, Garrison Lake, local artists' galleries and one of a kind restaurants featuring seafood, homemade pastries, breads, soups, and other goodies.

The main floor bedroom has a California king bed, large closet, and a full bathroom with step-in shower en suite. The upstairs bedroom has queen bed, a futon couch that becomes a full sized bed, a mini-fridge and microwave for those midnight snacks, and a full bath with shower/tub combo. The two living room couches are long enough for sleeping.

This 1940's home features a fully-outfitted kitchen with several coffee makers, Keurig, blender, waffle maker, mixer, pots and pans, cookie sheets, muffin tins, utensils, dishes, flatware. Front-loading washer and dryer on site. Bring your dog, if you wish, to hang out in a pet friendly enclosed patio or in the small dog run in the back yard.

There's WiFi, a VCR/DVD player, and a lots of games, puzzles, VCR's and DVD’s for when you just want to hang out at home for a while before heading out for your next adventure.

Your hosts, Susan and Wiz, bought the house in June 2016. Susan is a former live theatre set designer and hopes to recapture the ambiance of the 1940's while providing all the conveniences modern travelers expect from a vacation home. The house is fully functional, clean and cozy.

Go To Rental

We have stayed at The Lily Pad several times & love the place. Susan is always welcoming and each time has shared information about the house or about the town of Port Orford.

Wonderful, too short stay

This property was perfect for 2 couples. We all enjoyed the cozy home and fixing Thanksgiving dinner together. Both bathrooms were beautiful and spacious. It worked out well for our dog also. Susan was a wonderful host. We enjoyed visiting with her and seeing the tiny house she is building. We wished we had time to stay longer.

Return to the ocean after being away for too long.

We all enjoyed our stay at The Lily Pad. It is comfortable and well set up for two couples. We enjoyed the covered porch on more than one occasion. Everything worked. We liked it enough we are planning on returning next year. Susan is a great host. We enjoyed visiting with her and getting to see her tiny house project. We also liked seeing Wiz’s studio and work. This was our first VRBO experience and it was all positives.

Oregon coast

Although this is an older property, everything was there to make a very livable experience. During our week long stay we enjoyed the Port Orford community and the accessibility of the beaches for our daily walks. We would stay here again in the future.

About the host

Hosted by Susan Russell

A former high school teacher and then a live theatre manager and set designer, I now am now a construction contractor, specializing in helping older homeowners with Honey Do jobs. The Lily Pad is decorated in 1940's style, recapturing the era's simplicity but providing all the conveniences modern travelers expect.

Why they chose this property

Showing our town to out-of town friends, we passed this cute cottage which was for sale. Our friend said, "I'd like to live in that one!" Long story short -- we bought it and now offer it for your enjoyment.
