Whether you come to the Oregon coast for a romantic vacation, an adventure vacation, a scenic vacation, or a fun vacation you'll probably want to bring some things from home.
Idlestone has provided an amount of certain household supplies that should be sufficient for your stay. These items will not be replenished during your stay: toilet paper, paper
towels, dish washing soap, dish washing detergent, and trash bags. You
will need to provide any additional supplies that are needed during your stay.
Laundry soap is a great item to bring or to pick up at a local store, although sometimes we do have a small amount of laundry soap available. Foil and plastic wrap are not provided. Idlestone
has plenty of items for you to cook most dishes, we also keep salt and pepper. But if you know that you will need special cooking items or equipment, such as special spices or a
large pot or crock pot, you should bring these items from home to supplement the ones provided.

•Pillows, if yours is special.
•Paper Towels. We provide 1+ roll/s
