Nice comfortable cabin, clean and quiet. King bed was comfortable and all amenities you would expect were available, however, we did not see the pin ball game that was advertised. The ocean view is nice and the location was perfect for us to hike the Redwoods and walk the beaches.

All in all we enjoyed our stay at this cabin. It is huge with 2 living rooms with 2 couches and chairs each of them. Check-in was simple and the ocean view from the deck stunning. Not having a hot tub was a shame and dearly missed since most cabins at Whaleshead include them. The biggest drawbacks were the pillows are hard and flat, no extra blankets for the beds, and there was no dishrag or sponge to wash dishes with. In addition checkout requested that you load and start the dishwasher, which is fine, but it also asks that you wash all towels and strip the beds. When paying such a high cleaning fee, we thought that was a bit much tbh. Checkout is also at 10 am, which is the earliest we’ve ever had to leave a VRBO. We requested a later checkout and were immediately denied wo even asking what time we would have liked. Not sure we will return to Whaleshead again. It’s definitely declined over the years and most cabins, including ours, are in dire need of paint and repair.

We appreciate you sharing your thoughts with us, Tonya. It’s great to hear that you enjoyed the spaciousness of the cabin and found the ocean view from the deck stunning. We understand how a hot tub can enhance a stay, and we’re sorry it wasn’t part of your experience this time. Your feedback about the pillows, blankets, and kitchen supplies is valuable, and we’ll certainly look into those details to ensure future guests have everything they need for a comfortable stay. We also understand that the checkout process can feel a bit strict, and we appreciate your perspective on that. We’re committed to providing a welcoming environment, and we hope you might consider giving us another chance in the future. Thank you again for your insights.

Amazing home base in southern Oregon

Amazing stay at the Sand Dollar House. Perfect home base for exploring the southern part of Oregon. An unusual layout but a beautiful place just the same. The dinning area is the best part! With that awesome view!

Week of Jul 24-21 - Desmond family

First of all, we drove up and realized this was the prior home of friend who lived there when we did. The unit is beautiful! It is very clean, had a beautiful ocean view and great amenities. The furniture and beds are very comfortable. The appliances look like brand new. We really enjoyed our stay and will book again should we travel to Brookings in the future.

Cozy, comfy, weathered and well broken in. Good vibe.FYI, no pinball. It has been removed. And they left wet and dry laundry in the washer/dryer.Using Fridge door and getting to rooms a bit tight.But no deal breakers. All good.

Beautiful Beach Vacation

Came here for our friends wedding. This home was more than big enough for the two of us and allowed for a beautiful view for the bride to come see while getting ready. The view of the water from the porch and even just the dining room windows were beautiful. There's two large living room spaces that included two tvs and even a working pinball machine. The entire house is bright, full of light and life. They provide more than enough amenities in the kitchen bathroom and laundry. more than my own house some days. They have binoculars and other fun games and gadgets through out the house. The house feels new and well kept. I really hope to come back and visit, one of the best stays we've had.

Vacasa Service is questionable

The unit had not been cleaned before we arrived. Vacasa could not resolve it by 9:00 pm that night so I had to clean it myself until 11:30pm after a long day of travel. Not the welcome anyone hopes for. Vacasa says they are sending me a partial refund check in the mail but I have 6 weeks before it should arrive - fingers crossed. It took many text messages and phone calls to get them to respond and like I said, they never sent anyone to clean, I did it myself. Otherwise, the space was lovely.

Hi Darlene. Thank you for sharing your experience. We're truly sorry the unit wasn’t cleaned upon arrival and that you had to handle it yourself, especially after a long travel day. That’s not the kind of welcome we want for any guest. Our local team did not send the refund check, but they processed the partial refund directly to your card for the inconvenience you have encountered. We would appreciate your understanding. Your feedback will help us push for better response times and follow-through. We look forward to having you again in the future with a smoother experience.

Thank you for sharing your experience with us, Brian. We're so glad to hear you found the home clean and enjoyed the pet-friendly features. It’s great that you discovered the fenced area, even if it was a bit late in your stay! We appreciate the tip about the beach tunnel; it’s always good to know what to expect. We hope you and your furry friend will consider staying with us again in the future. We’d love to have you back!
