Market Score Breakdown
Five dimensions StaySTRA evaluates per market.
Market Overview
Cloverdale is a small unincorporated community in southern Tillamook County on the north Oregon Coast, positioned along Highway 101 near the Nestucca River and Pacific City. Its STR market draws primarily from Portland and the Willamette Valley drive market, along with out-of-state road-trippers attracted by beaches, fishing, Cape Kiwanda, and nearby Pelican Brewing.
The market has approximately 4,450 active listings, with entire-place units making up 4,385 of that total (98.5%). Private rooms account for just 63 listings. The channel mix skews heavily toward dual-platform listings: 3,032 appear on both Airbnb and VRBO, 999 are Airbnb-only, and 419 are VRBO-only.
By bedroom count, 3-bedroom units lead with 1,351 listings, followed by 2-bedroom (1,269), 4-bedroom (693), 1-bedroom (833), and 5-bedroom-plus (303), reflecting the coastal vacation rental character of the market where larger group-friendly units are prevalent.
In April 2026, the market posted an average daily rate of $282 and occupancy of 52.0%, generating $147 in RevPAR. Year-over-year, both occupancy and ADR rose 7.2%, though total revenue per listing grew only 1.6% due to calendar-mix effects. The market scored 57.0 out of 100 overall, with a high rental demand score (93.6) but a low seasonality score (45.7) reflecting the pronounced summer concentration of demand. Supply is administratively constrained by Tillamook County’s license cap system.

Short-Term Rental Regulations
Short-term rentals in Cloverdale are regulated by Tillamook County, which has one of the more restrictive STR frameworks on the Oregon Coast. A Tillamook County Short-Term Rental License is required under Ordinance #84, as amended.
The new-license application fee is $400 ($300 base plus $100 initial inspection fee). Annual renewal costs approximately $300, plus a separate operator license fee calculated at $75 per person of maximum permitted occupancy, due at issuance and each annual renewal. Licenses renew annually.
The county caps the total number of STR licenses per geographic subarea, maintains waitlists when caps are reached, and has paused or limited new license issuance in recent years, targeting roughly 1% annual growth per community. One license is permitted per licensee. A license may transfer to a new owner only once at the time of property sale and is otherwise non-transferable. Properties must generate at least 30 nights of rental activity per year or risk losing the license.
Occupancy limits apply (approximately two adults per bedroom plus two additional adults, plus two children). Properties must pass fire, life-safety, and parking inspections. There is no owner-occupancy or primary-residence requirement.
The transient lodging tax (TLT) in unincorporated Tillamook County is 10% of the listing price including cleaning fees for stays of 29 nights or fewer. A 2025 ballot measure to increase the TLT to 14% was extremely close and did not pass on initial count, leaving the rate at 10%. Enforcement is rated strict.
Market Comparison
Cloverdale’s 52.0% occupancy in April 2026 is near the U.S. STR median of approximately 55% but meaningfully below peak-season levels of 80%+. The $282 ADR is well above the U.S. median of approximately $220, placing this market among the higher-rate Oregon Coast destinations.
RevPAR of $147 reflects the combination of a premium nightly rate and mid-range occupancy. Compared to other Oregon Coast markets, Cloverdale competes primarily with Pacific City and the Tillamook corridor.
