About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

Kids welcome Pac-Man Arcade! 1 blk to beach. King bed, Pack 'n Play, Fenced yard

Here's what you get at Karr Beach House on Franklin...a comfortable beach cottage designed to feel "beachy" and provide you with everything you need to relax and enjoy as soon as you step through the door. Our house was built in 1926 and we've managed to retain much of it's charm and character without sacrificing our guests convenience and comfort. I'm the owner, Darren, and I'm here to provide you the absolute best service. Call, text, or email...I get them all and respond FAST!

Relax by the wood burning fireplace, walk to downtown (10 min) along the ocean shore on the promenade, play in the water, barbecue your favorite meal, have a bonfire on the beach (1 block away)...It’s all ready and waiting for you!

Our house is dog friendly (fenced yard), and so is the beach! The entire beach is an off-leash dog paradise (owners are VERY responsible and attentive to their dogs). It's a great opportunity for your dog to run around, and make some new friends. REMINDER: We won't charge you a pet fee!

NOTE: Our house will sleep 8 people, but it's pretty tight for 8 adults, especially when there are multiple women. The bunk beds are more suitable for teenagers or small adults. The one bathroom is the main issue for a large group with multiple women. We frequently have 8 guests and it works out just fine for them. Please consider these points before booking this house. If you determine it'll work for your group, book away!!

Our house includes:

King bed, Queen (Casper mattress!) bed, bunk beds (2 beds total), a pull out couch, and a pack n play crib.

1 gas BBQ, 1 charcoal BBQ
Beach chairs, beach toys, buckets, shovel, etc.
High Speed WiFi Internet
4K HD TV
GoogleTV/Chromecast
Wood burning fireplace and gas fireplace

Great location to the beach and easily walkable for all of seaside. The house had a strong smell and the carpet and floors were dirty- our socks were brown from walking around. There were also big spiders in the bathroom and a hornets nest somewhere (my dad got stung twice). The layout is interesting as you walk through the bathroom to get into the garage so doesn’t feel very private. We left a day early because of these things.

One more night at the ocean

We had a different house for our week stay and wanted to stay another night and found this home available.We did not use the kitchen looked like it had everything needed although looked like it could use a good cleaning. Bathroom was a bit sketchy too although clean.The location was great! And the Seaveiw are was full of great places to eat and have fun at!One note is that the couches were terrible to sit on as they were very old and very well used. We love to sit and talk at night then watch a movie and it was hard to do not enough space and very uncomfortable couch's.

Very close to the beach, had everything we needed to stay, we did find a bunch of cherrios around the dining room table floor, and a bit on the dusty side. We will probably find a different property to stay when we come back to stay in seaside next year.

Very cute, old house in a quiet part of town. Beds were comfortable, the rooms were spacious, and the kitchen had the basics for breakfasts before exploring the town and the beach. The beach is very close and accessible and the house came with a bunch of beach toys, chairs, towels, and even some fishing gear and a clam gun! The kids enjoyed playing the arcade games and the other toys. The parking is a bit tight if you need to park in the garage, but there is an outside spot provided as well. We had a great time and would love to stay again sometime!

Very pet and friendly beach house

Our family of 5 had a great time at this house. Perfect size and loved having a little yard to let dogs out and even the 5 year old play in. Bedrooms were nicely arranged. Short little walk to beach. We would love to stay here again.

National Park vacation

8 of us stayed and had plenty of space for our group. The bathroom situation is odd but it worked. Parking was tight as we had an F150 Supercrew and Ford Explorer. Half of ate at Dooger’s and the others did chipotle at the house. Portions at both were generous.

Update

The location and neighborhood were perfect.Would suggest the place be updated some, maybe include carpet and furniture shampooing.After reading some of the comments in the book, looks like this place has not had any upgrades for about 20-25 years.

This little cottage was perfect for our brief stay in Seaside. It was just a short walk to the beach, and the interior was cozy and comfortable for the three of us (2 adults and teen-aged daughter). Nice decorations added to the beach-side atmosphere - we enjoyed the vintage ambience.

Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities
It was cold and unpleasant I didn’t expect the heating to be unregulated. The bathroom was like walking into a freezer. Video game in the garage was broken. Dogfood in the couch, on the floor. We only rent with no pets because our grandkids are allergic no air vent in the kitchen, can’t open then window a burner on the store didn’t work. We didn’t think anyone was cleaning it. I don’t ever give a bad review but felt the owners needed to know.

We had an amazing time at this property and we’re so thankful for the owner being so quick to respond to all of my many questions. The house was a bit cold as we couldn’t get the fireplace to stay on but it really wasn’t much of an issue.
