Nice quiet neighborhood. Short drive or healthy walk to the beach access. Older property and a little dated, but overall very clean. Lots of space to spread out. The property management company was very helpful. We experienced an issue and they came right out and took care of it.
First, Erin, the property manager, is amazing. She was responsive and helpful and kind. The home is large and spacious, and the kitchen is well equipped. The beds were comfortable, and the bathrooms were fine. Our only complaint is the grass was full of small nettles that stuck in our shoes, came into the house, stuck to rugs and carpets, and became hidden weapons if you walked on them unknowingly in bare feet. Something should be done about the lawn, where these stinging demons hide. It is extremely dry and in need of care. Other than that, everything else was comfortable.
This was such a great gem to find! Our family was visiting Seaside for a basketball tournament and this was the perfect place. Located between Seaside and Astoria it made traveling to games easy. At the end of the day it was so nice to come back to a peaceful place away from the crowds. Very clean and comfortable. Would absolutely recommend!
The location is very serene and close to town and the beach. The rooms were nicely decorated and a good size. We think it was a fair value. The property did smell very musty, however, and the windows had some mildew. Beds were not very comfortable.
Overall the home is very dated and needs a good refresh. There really isn't any usable space outside. There was a smell of some kind, maybe from the back of the garage where the dryer vents to that was very unpleasant from the master bedroom.
Nice place but neighbors were very close.. The grass in the front yard had some sliver pokey plant all over it so we couldnt use firepit..that was the only downside. Check in process easy and plenty of towels and the beds were comfy. Nice furniture and great setup inside.
The house was not as listed:
1) The TV was not working.
2) There was no DVD player, and we drought DVDs because of the rainy weather. This was more important because the internet was very slow.
3) The checkout process was not published online before booking. Checkout was challenging. Having to run multiple loads of laundry before getting the keys to the drop off, before 11am in a different City was a stretch. To get everything done in time to check out by 11AM you need to get up by 8AM on your vacation day. This means no time to enjoy the local bakery before leaving the house. With a cleaning fee sufficient to have my entire house cleaned, I would not expect to not have a 1 page long check out list with condescending language.
4) The house was not clean when we got there, at first it was not a big deal, then we kept finding more and more mess.
When we contacted the management team about the TV issue, they never got back to us, I gave them a second call to please call me about my stay and have received nothing. (3 weeks)
The house was not very safe, the lamp that should be over the dining room table was over a chair. It was dangers for anyone over 6ft. The carpets in the bedroom were not rubber backed on the slick floor, I fell on my rear and almost blacked out. The washer and dryer are in part of the converted garage that needs to be accessed from a locked outside door(in the rain), so you need to be in a coat to do the laundry could be worse.
Enjoy...
Very nice house, close to the beach, lots of amenities. You will find EVERYTHING you might need in the house. Loved the sky-lights. Loved the grill. Nice and clean.
Very nice, comfy home in quiet neighborhood. Bathroom plumbing was a little concerning, as it liked to moan while refilling toilet tanks! Good to have a fireplace insert, but no wood was provided. With all of the work that we did from the check-out list, it seemed like WE should have been paid the cleaning fee! Not withstanding, really enjoyed the house.
odd to watch the rodents run around living room and bait traps in night stand drawers
honesty and disclosure the best policy! To know there is a rodent issue, by and through the traps set. Those minor details are important to the those of us, choosing this service for destination vacation. If I wanted mice, I would have went to Disneyland/world. VRBO needs to be more selective!!!
Not good. I waited and waited for check in information. Once I arrived in Seaside I called agent. Apparently I didnât give the age of my partner and myself so they didnât send information. Why wasnât I sent an email saying they needed this? Certainly would have been easy to send the info.
