I stayed here with my mom and sister for a week. Upon checking in and getting settled we noticed the floors were covered in sand. Not only did we keep our shoes on, we had to sweep/vacuum the floors. The house has a distinct musty smell and needed to keep the windows open for airflow. My mom slept in the master bedroom and she was very comfortable. My sister and I shared the the other room and the beds were not so comfy. The twin bed squeaks something terrible and was very uncomfortable. We did like that the house was walking distance to the beach and centrally located for all we wanted to do. A few improvements for comfort, and better smelling and it would be perfect.

Thank you so much for your review. I will pass along the sand issue and musty smell to our cleaning staff. We will revisit the bed situation at the end of the year.

I can't recommend this property. Overall the house is dated and in disrepair. The worst part was the musty smell, we aired the house out the best we could but even after we left the smell clung to all our clothes and I had to wash everything we'd brought. I knew from the pictures the property was dated, and expected that. But the furniture is old and uncomfortable, the sleeper sofa in the living room seems to have broken back supports, all of the bedroom linens are old and fit the beds poorly. Light bulbs are out in nearly every room, the bathroom is desperately in need of patching and painting. When I read back through the guest book on the counter, guest have noted some of these issues for years and it seems the host has neglected to address them. Overall very disappointed. The location is okay, another reviewer said you need to cross a 'highway' to get to the beach and yes you need to cross 101 but it's only 2 lanes and there a flashing cross walk so no concerns there. The beach in this area is beautiful, it would be nice if there were any beach amenities at this property like towels/chairs, etc.

Wonderful stay for Rockaway Beach

We stayed here over the July 4th holiday, and loved the location and property. This is further south than the rest of the town, so if you want to walk to shops, it's a longer hike, but still doable. There's plenty to do and see in the area, and the beach is so close and beautiful. The house was comfortable for the four of us, and we're excited to return someday soon!
