The Terry awhile is a wonderful landing pad for exploring the Newport, Waldport, Yachates area.. The owners are wonderful and accomidating. We would recommend staying there and plan on a 10 day visit next year....

I really enjoyed Terry-A-While. Who knew you could get an room right on the ocean in peak tourist season for 70 something dollars?. Its very clean, the owners who run the desk are charming (the lady was baking bread when we arrived and we got in a discussion of recipies and techniques) and I enjoyed the retro look and feel...

Positives: This motel is truly beachfront (check out the website's Panoramic View link and you will see what I mean). The unit we were in, Unit #3, had 2 rooms and was very, very clean. The cost per night is very reasonable, even at high season. Negatives: The unit was definitely older and dated - carpet upstairs in the bedrooms... More

I found this Motel to be a very clean, with friendly owners who were very helpful with my questions, such where to find a good restaurant, her recommendations were spot on. The grounds were very nice and tidy, with an incredible view, and short walk to the beach. The rates were very reasonable. I would recommend this motel to all... More

I have been reading some of the people, who just whine, as thats how they live their lives. One women saying that their wedding party was ruined due to their "no dog" policy. It clearly tells you when making reservations that they are not allowed. Did she read this? Also people talking about internet access. What do you go to... More

Terry, the owner of Terry-A-While, is incredibly rude and offers no assistance to her guests. At check-in, she offended our entire bridal party, including kicking out the bride-to-be because her dog was in the CAR. To get online, you have to sit in her small office. In response to our complaints about this (their website says they have internet), they... More

The Terry A While is in a beautiful location and the rates are reasonable. However, the ownership/management of the hotel proved themselves to be very unfriendly, and at times very difficult. Also, be aware of false advertising when it comes to their "wireless internet". They have a lone router placed in the main house of the motel that doesn't reach... More

We stayed here 4th of July weekend. Nearby Yachats and Waldport were way more expensive for what you get. Truly has ocean view rooms and easy beach access to a quiet oceanfront (compared to other nearby beach access). Owners Jan and Eugene were kind and helpful. It may not look like much from the outside, but stop and take a... More

All the rooms are truly OCEAN-FRONT. You will not be disappointed. Very reasonable rates and the most spectacular ocean view I have ever seen. You actually have your own private access to the ocean. Located between Yachats and Walport. made it easy to access Newport, Walport and Yachats. All are withing 5-10 minutes on some of the most beautiful coast-line... More
