Thank you for noting the convenient location. I'm so glad that was a high point of your visit. I'm sorry you encountered an unpleasant odor — we will have housekeeping investigate and deep clean and implement odor neutralizers where necessary. We sincerely appreciate the feedback.
You can’t beat the location and the house was perfectly fine. Could definitely use some updated amenities but it’s a comfortable and welcoming layout.

Only positive is the sunny deck with a partial ocean view. The home is furnished with old, tired mismatched junk & threadbare linens. The carpet has huge stains, many lights, fans etc aren’t functional, some dishes were dirty, no laundry detergent although check out procedures require laundry to be started.

Thank you for taking the time to share your experience. I'm sorry the interior fell short of expectations. Your notes about the furnishings, worn linens, stained carpet, nonworking lights and fans, dirty dishes, and the missing laundry detergent are all being taken very seriously. We will deep clean the carpet stains, repair fixtures, tighten cleaning checks for kitchenware, and ensure the detergent supply is restocked. We will also take your feedback about the furniture into consideration when next planning upgrades. Thank you again for the thoughtful feedback.
The bathroom did not have any washcloths, so we had to buy some. We also bought kitchen towels, more laundry detergent, toilet paper and dishwasher tablets.The key box has seen its days and need to be replaced. I think salt and pepper should also be provided. There was also no ice made when we arrived. I used to be a cleaning lady for a hotel so this is a suggestion I would like to make.
Such a great cottage right off the beach and the ocean in view from the front porch. We absolutely loved the location. We were a family of 4 (kids 10 & 7) with a small dog. The size of the house was just perfect for us. Some reviews showed pics of older linens but everything was bright white and updated when we were there. We will definitely stay here again. The host was very responsive with questions and everything was smooth for check-in & check-out.

Hi Kristin! We are so glad you enjoyed your stay. We agree ... the location is hard to beat. We loved hosting you and hope you will book with us again!
This home was perfect for our plans. We used this house as a home base while we explored the Oregon coast from Tillamook to Astoria. The home was equipped for our needs and relaxation. Only minutes from downtown Manzanita and steps to the beach. The beds were comfortable and living room placed for a relaxing evening after a hard day hiking. The house was clean with ample blankets on the cool nights. The kitchen is well equipped for the standard breakfast and dinner menus. We will be back.

Wonderful house and walking distance to the beach! We could hear and see the ocean from the deck. House was very comfortable and kitchen was reasonably stalked with utensils. We will definitely stay here again.

We had a great time, location was PERFECT. Property was exactly as described. Knocked off one star for a 10am checkout. 11am would be 10x better on the last day of vacation.
