About this property

Family Friendly Ocean View Home - Half Block To The Beach, Pets Considered

Relax on the large deck and watch the sunset over Manzanita beach while sipping a beverage, or if you’d prefer to get sand between your toes, it’s just a half-block walk to access seven miles of pristine sandy beach. Our house is unusually well-stocked with a plethora of gear, original artwork, spices and other kitchen supplies not typically found in vacation rentals. Walk or ride a bike to restaurants, cafes, grocery stores, wine bar, yoga studio, spa, and retail shops on Laneda Ave.

Highlights include:
- A short 4-block walk to downtown Manzanita, so no need to drive
- Recently renovated bathrooms and decks (propane BBQ)
- LCD TVs on each floor plus a library of DVDs, books, puzzles, and games
- High speed Wi-Fi with streaming TV services
- All three bedrooms have new queen-sized memory foam mattresses

Split between 2 floors, the house can comfortably accommodate two families. The main living area is on the 2nd floor. Upstairs is a large open area that encompasses the kitchen, dining area and living room. The living room has a large screen Roku HD TV with soundbar and Bluetooth-enabled stereo. There are two comfy sofas including one with a new queen sleeper with gel mattress. The dining area seats eight. The upper floor includes two queen bedrooms plus a full bath with tub/shower.

The lower level has one queen bedroom, full bath with stand-up shower and a large family/rec room with sofa sleeper. There is a TV with DVD/VHS player plus plenty of games, puzzles, books and a wood pellet stove to make it cozy. There is a laundry room with full-sized washer/dryer and a second full-size refrigerator. If you have difficulty climbing stairs or navigating uneven floors, this home may not be suitable for some people.

In the garage, there are bikes for all ages/sizes, beach chairs, coolers, kites, toys, tennis rackets and games to keep you busy. We also have boogie boards and wet suits for the wave seekers. Please take care of our equipment as if it were your own.

Pet policy: Pet considered with prior approval on a case-by-case basis with an additional $150 pet fee as long as they are well behaved, and owners clean up everything left in the backyard or on the beach. This home may not be suitable for guests with pet allergies.

It was a perfect set up for us-essentially right at the beach in Manzanita, we could easily walk to town. It was extremely quiet, friendly neighbors we said hi to almost daily. It was the best launchpad for us to go up and down the north coast. We have stayed in Manzanita many times in the past 22 years, and I would book this place again without hesitation.

This is our favorite property on the Oregon coast. And Manzanita is our favorite town. This house is fantastic value for the money; half a block from the beach, beautiful ocean view from the front deck, easy walk into town. Comfy beds, well equipped kitchen, not fussy. Just a super easy place to hang out.

Very nice home on a quiet street 1/2 block from the beach and short walk to main street shops and restaurants. Lots of recreational equipment in the garage for guest use-we especially enjoyed the bikes and riding on the beach.Well equipped kitchen if you feel like cooking in. Comfortable beds. Nice balcony for morning coffee and evening sunsets. Very accommodating hosts with easy check-in/out and clear concise instructions. We hope to return.

The absolute perfect spot in Manzanita

The location of this house simply cannot be beat. Just a half a block from the sand, the huge front deck has a stunning ocean view; everything you want without noisy cars passing by.The kitchen was very well equipped, the beds were super comfortable, lots of room at the dining room table, and a very cozy living room to hang out in. Add a short walk into town to the mix, and it really is the perfect spot.

Quiet Getaway

Great location in Manzanita. It’s 30 min drive to Seaside if you wanted to spend a day shopping; 3 min walk to the beach. The house has a fully stocked kitchen with all the appliances you might need.

Perfect for families and great location!

Perfect location- close to the beach and a quick walk to town. You can see the ocean from the deck and listen to the waves as you fall asleep! Heaps of puzzles and games for after a long day at the beach or out surfing! We also enjoyed the use of bikes for everyone. Plenty of towels, dishes and kitchen gadgetry for everyone! Thanks for a great place to stay :)

Memorial Day long weekend trip

We travelled with our 2 children and met up with their aunt. We had an awesome trip. The home was spacious and could easily accommodate more than our party of 5. Everything is close and walkable beach, town, shops. The town of Manzanita is inviting and fun. There are plenty of shops to explore and places to eat. You are also so close to the beach. Would stay again and would recommend.

Thank you for an amazing week!

This house is incredible. It essentially has two separate living areas great for older children and/or family. It is very well equipped and stocked. Although we didn't use them, the garage was filled with anything you needed for fun on the sand, in the surf, or around town. The beds are super comfy and clean. games and DVDs are stocked. The wifi worked well. I really couldn't find anything negative to say. The hose next to the house was perfect for rinsing our surf boards, wet suits, and feet. This is a very special place with a great location. Thank you for sharing it with our family.

Cleanliness

Although I don’t think this is the owners fault, I do think the cleaning people are not as thorough as they were the first time we stayed there. Dirty glasses were left by the bed, we cleaned the refrigerator and the deck and chairs could use some power washing to remove winter mold. The main issue was my allergies to cats. I spent the entire time sick from cat dander. There was always hair on our socks as we do not wear shoes in the house... I do know that I will always ask in the future VRBOs, if there have been cats. Lastly, the beds are just old. No one slept well. We love the location but hope the owners put some TLC into there property for future guests.

Great Summer beach house experience

We’ve stayed at many different places in Manzanita over the last 10 years and this house is as good as any of them. It’s very close to the beach, a pleasant walk to shops, restaurant, coffee etc and also quiet in morning and evening. We are two couples and two kids who have vacationed together many times and this place worked very well for us as it provided both privacy and space for both adults AND kids. There is a bathroom and bedroom(s) on both floors which is ideal in that respect. Adults had the upstairs and the kids had the downstairs – we all got together for breakfast and dinner and gathered round the big living room table for dinner or games and then retired to the deck, downstairs or wherever. We like to cook on vacation and the kitchen is well suited for that with no lack of pots, pans, cutlery, accoutrements, spices, salt, pepper, oil, vinegar etc etc. The garage is well equipped with bikes, boogie boards, wetsuits, a kite, a grill and pretty much all you could need is available. There was even a drawer of funky sunglasses, blankets and additional towels and bed sheets if you needed them. If you want to watch old VHS videos or enjoy a library of fun DVDs or stream Roku services you can do all that. The sheltered main deck is a great place to hang and enjoy the view, the tree level surroundings, check out the passersby or just sit and enjoy the outside vibe at any time of day. Notable: The art work in the house is eclectic and beach house funky – to be enjoyed. The TV upstairs is a Roku set up – you need a UN and PW to stream content – (If network or cable is available instructions for remotes would be a plus) The kids accessed the TV downstairs and it worked fine for them in the evening and enjoyed all the games down there too (There’s a TON of them) A classic Manzanita Beach house that we’d go back to for sure.

Larson stay

Overall, we were very pleased with our stay. We were disappointed in the condition of the grill. Only one burner ignited and the grill looked very unappetizing so we opted not to use it. There was also a persistent musty smell in the upstairs bathroom, stronger at night than in the day. We would have liked some sharper knives in the kitchen, too. But everything else was fine. Lots of fun things to do, even for our three-year olds. Would gladly consider a return visit!

Beach fun.

Nice house close to the beach. Very clean, well stocked, but had a small ant problem. Sliding deck doors very difficult to open and close. Bikes listed but not operable. Only one roll of toilet paper in each bath and one roll of paper towels. Host requests to start laundry but no laundry soap. Did enjoy our stay but a few minor details would have made ot better.

Ocean View with Great Beach & Town Access

My family and I really enjoyed our stay. Having a the ocean view from the deck and being close enough to hear the ocean sounds was wonderful. The house had a good kitchen and large dining table. Bathrooms were clean and downstairs shower had outstanding water pressure & hot water. It was also very nice to have access to the recreation gear stored in the garage. Having bikes to ride was a real plus, however, we did have to air the tires ignorer to us them. Also having the wagon was a lifesaver for helping carry the grandson and supplies back and forth from the beach. I would definitely rent again on our next family reunion in Manzanita.

Wonderful, relaxing trip!

We were lucky to find this house in Manzanita for a last minute birthday getaway! Beach access is right down the street and the deck provides a view of the ocean and sunsets. We had everything we needed and a lot of space to spread out and just relax. A couple small deferred maintenance things but nothing that interfered with our enjoyment of the property in any way. Erica is a wonderful host and very responsive - thank you for a great birthday! 😁
