Otterly Relaxed in Seabrook, WA - large deck with private hot tub & firepit
Are you ready to become Otterly Relaxed?
We built this place to be the perfect vacation getaway for almost any family - with plenty of outdoor exploring space (nature!), plenty of outdoor living space (the beautiful, integrated deck, firepit & balconies), and plenty of indoor living space (when nature decides you need to be indoors instead). The options & opportunities are endless - so pick your direction, grab a martini and become 'Otterly Relaxed'!
The house is clean and stocked, which was great, and it had plenty of room for the 3 families that stayed. We missed the part in the listing that said no pool access, but ended up renting another home that had pool access with another family, so all worked out!
Seabrook itself is fabulous and Otterly Relaxed is in a great location - close to town and there is a path directly down to the beach. It has it all - size, amenities, clean bath/kitchen, decks with lots of chairs, ping-pong, guest house, games - but unfortunately needs a little TLC before we would return.*The mattresses in the primary (king) and secondary (queen) bedrooms are SQUEEKY and we - a 60-year-old couple on a romantic vacation - had to move to the bunk beds at 5 am in order to get some sleep.*The heating is either on or off - they don't cycle on/off and you can't set a temperature.*Some fabric chairs and all the carpets are quite stained and in need of a thorough steam cleaning.It is overall a great home for a casual beach getaway for a large group - just needs some attention. The owner was receptive to my suggestions, so I hope/expect some upkeep will be initiated.
Wonderful place to stay. We had such a fun time. Looking at the map it seems the ocean is far away but itâs very close, within walking distance. Would love to stay again.
We had a wonderful but quick weekend at Seabrook! Otterly Relaxed was the perfect house for our family trip with the grandparents. Check in was seamless, communication was easy and the house had everything we needed.
Very nice with amenities liked the s'mores quite a bitLights on wall going upstairs flashed off and on sometimes. Plenty of paper towels. And coffee. Didn't use the apartment above garage though.
Location, and home are wonderful. Was very disappointed that the outside of the home was taped off for painting. Stair carpets somewhat stained, and the bbq grill was out of propane. But overall its was a enjoyable week.
Our whole family loved our stay at Seabrook. We had a wide range of ages and everyone can't wait to go back. We enjoyed being close enough to town and the beach to walk, but still able to have quiet time at the house.
This was our second stay at Otterly Relaxed. Very cute home and works out great for a couple different families to share a place for a nice vacation weekend. We got lucky. Rain was forecasted but we had mostly dry days to enjoy walking around town and to the beach. Can't wait fornour next trip.
my whole family was immediately wowed by all the options for sleeping arrangements and emphasis on comfort and relaxing. it was a great place to take a break.
We had a wonderful stay at Otterly Relaxed. The point of our weekend away was to celebrate my birthday and everything was perfect.The house was just as described, and I truly was able to relax the whole weekend. Unfortunately, it rained so we didn't get a fire outside. But we do get to use the hot tub, and that was amazing. I would recommend staying here.
This is a beautiful home located a short walk from downtown Seabrook and from the beach. My husband and I especially enjoyed that this home had a private hot tub and many different board games. The hosts were very quick to respond to and questions we had. The check in/out process is very easy. Would definitely recommend staying here and canât wait to come back!
We've been coming to Seabrook for nearly 2 decades and love finding new homes to stay in. We traveled with our young adult kids (19-25 years old) and loved the location of this home. We loved that the home had bikes to borrow and lots of games to play. It's an easy location to walk to the beach or the town center or to any of the pools.
we thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The location was ideal quick walk to the beach short walk to town and in between the indoor and outdoor pools. We also enjoyed waking up with a coffee and the hot tub.
Went to to Seabrook for the first time and this house was absolutely perfect! The cleanliness, the comfortâŠeverything was spot on! From the amazing furniture outside, to the fireplace to everything needed in the kitchenâŠ.my friends and I had a fabulous time! Highly recommend this house for anyone looking for a house in Seabrook! Thank you for sharing your beautiful home with us!
Otterly Relaxed suited our 10 person family group so well. With the wonderful outside decks for chatting and eating, the convenient hot tub, the comfortable living/ dining room, the outdoor shower after the beach, and the indoor/outdoor gas fireplace, we loved being together there.
When we needed help with an electrical issue, the owners responded immediately and the property manager was wonderful.
We would definitely return to this amazing house.
We loved our 3 night stay in Seabrook. This home had plenty of space for us to spread out or come together on the deck to read our books and have coffee. Everything went great except we have a few suggestions for the property manager. 1. We couldnât tell what the dispensers in the shower were. The body wash/conditioner/shampoo was not labeled so we had to guess. 2. The beds outside the bunk beds did not have much support , memory foam style, as in the bunk beds would be ideal.
The neighborhood chose us. The house is located in the Mill District - which is centrally located - close to the beach, close to downtown, close to the mountain-bike trails, and much more. For those familiar with Seabrook, Mill District is where the Big Fort Stump is, and where the Gnome Trail (Beach Access) is located.
When we picked the lot - it was just a hill. But then Stephen Poulakos (the lead "designer" at Seabrook) gave us a birds-eye-view sketch of what he would put on the lot.
We said, "if you can do that... here, we'll take it!". And they delivered.
The main house + carriage house provides a tremendous amount of living space - both indoor and outdoor. And thanks to the terraced structure of the property, and how it looks down on Compass Street, all of the outdoor spaces (deck, balconies, firepit, and hot tub) are extremely private - yet you can see everything - almost like a one-way mirror.
And it's the "small details" that matter:
- The wraparound deck gives you sun, while also protecting you from the elements.
- The indoor/outdoor fireplace can be seen from both the living room and the hottub. (and we think we still have the only indoor/outdoor fireplace in all of Seabrook.)
- We recessed the hot tub to make it super easy to get in and out.
Please enjoy it as much as we have over the years!
