Private and perfect for quick trip
Smooth and easy check in process. The privacy of the property was great for our family and our dog! The house was super clean and had necessities minus groceries but Fred Meyer was less than 10 mins down the road. Beach was a short walk down 2 blocks, which was perfect. We enjoyed staying here.

Close to beach
Very easy walk to the beach. Property was clean and comfortable. Communication was prompt and clear.
Great stay after a rouge river trip
We floated the rouge river 4 days prior to our stay at the fortress. The lovely and dog friendly home and yard had everything we needed. Most important was a secure place to drop our boat and trailer. Plenty of secure and safe space for 2 trucks and 2 trailers. Walking distance to beach was epic. Quick drive to old town and all major restaurants. Fred myers close and convienient. Touring sea lion caves, beaching it at haceta and visiting old town florence was our one day adventures. Ohhhh, get ice cream and taffy at bj’s. Easy to find location and super cozy house. Awesome stay!!
