Tiny Home Community on the Oregon Coast

[@wildsage]

Big thanks to Katie and all the residents for allowing me to spend the week with them filming their community and the homes! Pretty cool place. I loved Waldport so much my partner and I went back there for a long weekend for her birthday.

I would love to see more tiny homes communitys across the USA even in my home town in Erie PA! I would buy a tiny house if they had a community of tiny houses in my neck of the woods!🤠

[@andreak4502]

I keep watching the video, but no mention, how much is the land rental? I know the tiny houses has different prices, but if you live there long term, it's important the price of the land rental.

[@barbarajoyhuhtala3495]

I have seen almost all of these tiny home owners in individual videos, but I had no idea of the wonderful community that Tiny Tranquility had become. Envy.

[@Beach_Guy]

I used to live in the Pacific NW & I'd live there. A greenhouse & woodshop to utilize my skills. Sounds like a great community

[@theocharisstylianou1822]

I need to ask !!! Was anyone homeless ???

[@_kass3939]

This is why I live in Oregon because I live for the coast. I’ve actually wanted to put a tiny home there so when I wanted to get away.

[@cynthia_artistpro]

What an idyllic place! And how fortunate it appears for you folks living there in your tiny homes!

[@feliciasampson8032]

Wow...this community looks amazing!

[@nightmary]

Thank you so much for posting this video. If I had a chance to do so, I'd move in tomorrow. This community seems like a gold-standard to shoot for. What's not to love!?

[@classicalexpeditions5137]

It looks pretty and nice now! But so did trailer parks in the 1920s. Within a few decades these tiny home parks will not look so nice or desirable. It’s just some clever business reusing an old concept with a new name and a bit of new engineering. But the basic concept is almost exactly the same.

[@nightmary]

@@classicalexpeditions5137 Everybody is entitled to their opinion. But I couldn't disagree with yours more. Certainly, there will be people who live in tiny homes who won't take care of their homes and the surrounding area very well. It would be idiotic of me to pretend otherwise. But the vast majority of the people attracted to the tiny house movement take great pride in their homes - they have chosen the lifestyle deliberately and have put a great deal of effort and thought into how their home is designed and how they want to live their lives. How many channels do you see of trailer park residents gushing over the place they live? I'm not saying there aren't people who are absolutely happy with where they are living. I know a number of people who have chosen to live in trailer parks. It's a solution that works for them. But tiny house living is a choice to live, not just in a certain dwelling, but as a distinct way of life. And that makes all the difference in the world. Full disclosure: I don't currently live in a tiny home, I live in an apartment. I don't have the resources right now to switch dwellings. But I love the tiny house movement and what it stands for. I've done an incredible amount of research, have designed 3 homes I would enjoy living in, and will live in some kind of tiny house in the future. It may not be my own. I would be happy beginning in someone's accessory dwelling or renting in a tiny house community. It isn't just the house for me either, it's the lifestyle and the movement.

[@kenmcclow8963]

It looks like they have a manager who is curating a community and they aren't trying to fill hundreds of spots. I think that if someone didn't fit in they might not have their lease renewed. They appear to have a waiting list and from looking at other communities there is far more demand for spaces than there are spaces.

[@TruthQuest4700]

I really like a small-town vibe! I was beginning to think that "community" was part of a bygone era. It seems that people are so transient these days.

[@justanotherday5531]

[@bethfurry7461]

I’m from Oregon. This should be a nice, safe place to live, and not really subject to the homelessness and trashiness so prevalent today, because of the private coastal location. I wish I was back in Oregon!

[@annmarieschantz9724]

Beautiful place!! I would be honored to live there. So much to do,or just walk on the beach!

[@vonheise]

I love the idea and homes, the added benefits and spaces, and the community feeling, however, I have seen others where the homes are not set up in rows like a mobile home park. I can see why the town had reservations at first. When the shrubs grow up, there will be more privacy, but we camp in state parks and not KOAs just for the privacy and remote feeling. However, the residents are happy, and the town is happy, so you can't ask for much more than that!

[@shaleiigavesti4601]

What an awesome place - didn't know it existed in Waldport - we love visiting the coast since we live in the Willamette Valley.

[@mistywaters5550]

Waldport has one of the best candy stores in Oregon called 'Indulge" they make their own carmels and brownies, it is very small but well worth the stop if you are there. The chocolate candy she orders in but it is SO GOOD and their ice cream has huge portions

[@dawnsullivan6233]

I watch a lot of tiny house communities, but a lot of them have dirt or gravel. I love that this has grass and they also love that they’re set up in a row and they look very neat not to mishmash all over the place.

[@heidicampbell1807]

I would totally live there. It would be perfect for me!

I feel like I just found my new potential home ive been dreaming of since I was a kid. and now im in school for horticulture management and would love to work in that greenhouse and help with the workshops one day!

I'm a Oregon resident that visits newport about 4 times a year. I usually drive through Waldport when visiting thors well or the sea lion caves and I had no clue this was a thing.

[@5DNRG]

Nice community and location! It seems to be a relaxed concept of co-housing and worth checking into further. Thanks for posting.

[@barbaraheed3509]

I'd move in one second to live up there. It just looks and sounds like it's right up my ally. I've been wanting a tiny home fir me and my best friend but still can't afford it. I keep dreaming though. We are two old widows that count on each other. Don't know what I'd do without her and she says the same for me. Haven't seen a floor plan that would be good for us yet also. I'll keep on looking though.

If you choose to be a coastie, you can't fear a tsunami. That's part of the thrill!

[@jackwalsh1468]

@@luckybearsoap There is fear or a wise choice to engineer a solution to a potential problem. The same mistakes were made at Fukushima. All around the hills bordering the river basin were ancient stone markers warning of prior Tsunamis that had occurred and their respective high water marks. This historical information was disregarded by those who built the Fukushima power plant. You know the rest of the story. That was a 70ft high Tsunami. It pushed flood waters nearly 100 miles inland. There is no fear to it. If you feel a powerful earthquake. You may have as little as two minutes to react. Good luck..

You need to worry much more about your state and federal government right now than we need to fear a Tsunami, lol. Tsunamis have done much less damage to the continental United States coast lines than BLM and illegal immigrants that are pouring over the southern border daily but then we have the tornadoes of the Midwest down Thru the South, or we have the hurricanes of the southern & eastern United States which destroy hundreds to thousands of homes and lives every season and then we have the wildfires of California, the upper NE & Colorado and other western states, all of which are causing billions of dollars in damage and death every single season which is of real concern over a Tsunami that has not hit the coast of the United States in decades. Hell, we probly have a much stronger chance of getting caught in an active volcano eruption again like the folks that perished in Mt. St. Helens long before we need to really worry or stress over a Tsunami, which is another act of God of which we have little to no control over which is why our scientists and other professionals work their tails off daily to help give us as much early notice to impending disasters so you have more than just a few minutes of warning to protect yourself and your home

[@jackwalsh1468]

@@1982MCI Don, you bring up many good points and I respect your view points. Call it fear/worry or let worry deal with tomorrow. I clearly get the sentiment. There are inherent risk with everything. Some greater or lesser. My perspective/planning is historically based and the plausibility of history being repeated. The U.S. west coast has a very significant history of Earthquakes and Tsunamis. My only point is know as much as possible about where you live. If you're willing to live with risk of a potential Earthquake or Tsunami. Then by all means live @ the water's edge. I choose to plan/prepare for plausible contingencies. Good luck and enjoy your life. Cheers.

You really have to dig into their website to find a small blurb but basically they have no slots available and you have to go through a lease/background check just to get on a waiting list and then you have to pay a further deposit if you want to get on a "priority" wait list, to which it states the priority wait list is in the excess of 2-3 years.
