Great location

Short walk across street to beach. Less than 10 min bike ride to Seaside. Drove 10 min to the Big Chill Rosemary to eat. Spacious master room and beautiful sitting area on deck. Height of bunkbeds in guest room gives lots privacy. Very comfortable and spacious house for 6 people.

Excellent stay!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We loved everything about our stay - the house, the neighborhood, the beach access, the pool! There was plenty of space to spread out. The only thing I would caution is that the top bunk bed is very high compared to normal bunk beds and is not easily accessible for younger kids - even my 10-year-old was nervous up there. Other than that the house had everything you could need. It was an easy walk to the beach and pool.

Memories made ✅

Such a cute house, recently updated, clean, and in great condition. We liked the layout, with all bedrooms upstairs (beds were very comfortable) and an awesome upper screened porch. Having three full baths would have made life easier with four coed teens, but we managed fine aside from some minor inconvenience. The downstairs is spacious and we never felt crowded. All appliances worked great, and the back patio with fire pit was fun for s’mores and just hanging out. The location was perfect for us. It’s a quick walk to the beach and a short bike ride to Seaside. The kitchen could use more knives for food prep (we only found a couple steak knives), more airtight containers for cut up fruit and leftovers, and some serving trays. Overall this is an amazing rental and we would definitely stay here again!

The biggest issue was the amount of light coming into the guest bedrooms early in the morning. The transom windows and built-in blinds on the French doors did very little to block sunlight, so the rooms were bright by about 5:45 each day. With young kids waking up with the sun, the whole house was awake very early. The primary bedroom had heavy curtains, and adding something similar to the guest rooms would make a huge difference.The bunk bed was also much higher than expected. Our five yr old, who normally sleeps in a standard bunk bed at home, was uncomfortable climbing up to the top bunk because of the height — it’s seriously very high. We ended up having to rearrange sleeping arrangements for our kids, which wasn’t ideal.The other main issue was the mattress in the second guest bedroom. It was a very firm memory foam mattress that somehow also sank in at pressure points, and I personally found it quite uncomfortable. I ended up sleeping on the couch most nights instead.That said, there were several things we really appreciated about the home. The location was great, and the public beach access was only a four-minute walk from the front door to the sand. There was also a great assortment of beach gear available. Overall, we would recommend this home. However, if you’re traveling with kids who will need to use the bunk bed, prefer darker rooms for sleeping in, or enjoy a softer mattress, it may be worth confirming whether those items have been addressed before booking.

Could have been better

Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was very dirty. I was more than happy with the location. I was somewhat dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We enjoyed the location - we had two issues that we had two issues that cause us pause in returning - one we had to go and buy our own dust pan and mop to clean the floors ... the house was not clean - we have three young kids and this caused us some level of frustration to deal with. Additionally, we were disappointed with the grill - the grill never got hot enough to use.
