SHOW UP, RELAX, ENJOY! IT'S THAT SIMPLE...
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.
Play Pac-Man on a real arcade game, including other fun arcade games!
Relax in the comfy home, 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, 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. Also, our yard is fenced in for your four-legged friend. 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

The beach access is great - just a block away. The house was clean and comfortable. I would definitely not book it for 8 people - I would say it would sleep 6, but the living/sitting space would be tight even with 6 - we had 4 adults and 2 dogs.
It was a quant beach house. Close to the beach. Perfect for a morning walk. Plenty of towels and bedding. Nice large dining table to play games on. Our family enjoyed our stay. Would love to stay there again.
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.
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.
This little house was perfect for our family of 6 and was easy to walk to the beach and promenade.Thank you for letting us stay here for our little family vacation
Great stay for a group of 4 adults with a baby. Close to the beach and a nice fenced in yard for pups. Perfect for baby’s first trip out of the big city.
We appreciated the short walk to the beach and that the house was a bit off the beaten path. The house was clean and comfortable. We really enjoyed our stay.
I lost count on how many times I came back to this home to rent for the weekend with my family when I was on the hunt for a home! This was my first time renting a house! The whole process very simple! Would absolutely rent this lovely home again!!!
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.
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.
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!
We had a wonderful stay for our family of 7. The property had everything we needed. Comfortable house and quiet neighborhood.
It is not a modern home, but a fun beach house that is comfortable, welcoming, and decorated with love.
My family spent Christmas day gathering here to play games and catch up, and had a lovely time. The gas fireplace made us cozy and warm even though it was raining outside. It is just a short walk to the prom and beach, too.
What a great place! It was just as listed and had everything we needed and more (lots of fun beach items in the garage). Really appreciated all the extra blankets and towels as well. Loved the bunk beds and Pac-Man game for my kids. It’s also an easy, quick walk to the beach.
It was an easy walk to the beach. The house has beach equipment to use. Also a fire place to heat the living room. A very inviting place. We would stay here again.

About the host
Hosted by Darren Karr
We grew up and lived in the Portland area and enjoyed Seaside for most of our lives. Recently, we moved to Phoenix AZ! We hope our house has everything you want and need. If not, please let us know!
Why they chose this property
We love Seaside. It's only 1.5 hours away from the Portland area and is the quintessential beach town. Seaside offers everything we looked for in a beach town. Downtown Seaside is about 11 blocks away from the house and is less than a 15 minute walk.
What makes this property unique
Our house is our second home. We set it up so we could visit at any time and not have to worry about bringing a bunch of things with us. We want this to be the same for our renters. We want our guests to feel at home at our house and we make it as easy as possible to do that. We also have an easy entrance system in place so there's no need to stop by and pick up a key. We also make it easier on our guests by not asking them to clean when they leave. We want your stay to be as relaxing and trouble-free as possible.
