Fort Awesome! Ocean Front View, Agate Beach, Newport, Oregon

The perfect family vacation along the Oregon Coast ~ you won’t find a better view!

This three-bedroom, 2 bath home (Sleeps 7) has been completely remodeled with some of the finest finishing touches and new furniture. Two bedrooms have direct views of the ocean and lighthouse, one bedroom has a partial view of the ocean. Perched on a bluff overlooking the Pacific Ocean, in even the stormiest weather, the view is always amazing. Hot tub recently added to back deck. (Please follow all hot tub rules.)

Located in the Agate Beach neighborhood at the north end of town, conveniently close to beaches, parks, restaurants, and local shops.
The beautifully remodeled kitchen with brand new appliances has plenty of prep space ~ you can even see the view of the ocean from the kitchen island! Lounge on the couch in the living room and take in the panoramic view, enjoy the cozy fire in the fireplace, or watch a movie. Whatever you do, you will surely enjoy your time.

Also included are a washer and dryer, Wifi and four flatscreen TVs with cable.

Visible from this home, is the historic Yaquina Head Lighthouse, the tallest lighthouse in Oregon, first lit in 1873 and now open for tours. Walk through the Yaquina Head Outstanding Natural Area to explore the tidepools and do some birdwatching. Or, catch a current movie at the Newport Cinema, less than a half-mile from your front door right across Hwy 101.

A rough path to the beach is located one block south (a steady foot may be required). Easier beach access is just two miles south to the Agate State Beach Recreation Site where you can walk along the beach or play in the water. Or, continue south to downtown Newport for the world-famous Oregon Coast Aquarium and fun attractions like Ripley's Believe It Or Not, The Wax Works, and the Oregon Undersea Gardens, all just four miles away along Newport's historic bay front.

Lighthouse View

This was a lovely property with the most amazing views ever! The location was perfect as a starting point for daily excursions and easy access to grocery shopping for stocking up. The home was exactly as described and came with a well equipped kitchen that made cooking a breeze. Speaking of breezes, it was wonderful to be able to open the windows to have ocean breezes throughout the house. We enjoyed the separate den and the fantastic jacuzzi! The beds were comfortable enough and the bathrooms were nice. We struggled trying to use the TV in the main living space but no worries, there was so much to do and also it was a lovely space just to relax.
Unbeatable view!
Beautiful sunsets each night.

Beautifully remodeled coastal home

Very nicely remodeled home right on the bluffs above Agate Beach. The home has a well stocked kitchen for cooking Thanksgiving meal. The views were stunning - especially from the hot tub. A wonderful place for a family gathering. The owner was very responsive with the few questions that we had during our stay.

Fun times at the Awesome House.

We are a group of friends for over 50 years. Every year we pick a location to hang out, watch football and visit tourists locations. We arrived at the Awesome house and found it to be Awesome. The view is to die for and the house was perfect. One level with a beautiful deck and fire pit. This house is everything you need for friends to hang out with. I definitely give it a 10.

Excellent Stay

I’m pretty picky about cleanliness and Fort Awesome hit the mark. The property was beautiful, and we loved it. Some people noted that the area felt sketchy, and I disagree. We had no problems with security or feeling like we should be worried about it. The hot tub was clean, the beds were comfortable, and the kitchen was nice as well. I brought my own pots and pans because I’m picky but you could get away with making a couple of meals with what is provided. The view is amazing and this place feels very homey for being a rental. All of the shared living spaces were good for lounging for 4 people, and would be good for up to 6! The seating was comfortable, tvs well placed and worked, and plenty of room to eat in the dining area. The WiFi was excellent throughout the house, which is a plus because cell service is iffy on the coast. There was also cable that included the regional sport package (Root Sports for MLB). Overall, I would absolutely book this again!

Incredible View!

Incredible view of the ocean and Yaquina Head Lighthouse!! Saw bald eagles, porpoises, whales from the property. New remodel is apparent: inside is like new and nice. Nice king bed and shower in the master bedroom. Two retired adults stayed 10 days in July 2019. Neighborhood is not upscale but was quiet and fine. Ocean beach access is a couple blocks away and a little rugged. Location is convenient for shopping, and area attractions. Temperatures/weather in July and August are really nice: evenings mid 50s, daytime mid 60s, almost no rain. Property manager responds to questions immediately! Highly recommend.
