Very good

A great house for a beach trip with the kiddos! It was a short walk to the beach and the house came stocked full of beach toys to bring. The play room was a great place to play after a fun day out. Highly recommend this place! All the rooms were spacious and comfortable.

Hi Cass! Thank you for your 5-star review. We are so glad you enjoyed your stay. We loved hosting you and hope you will book with us again!
Overall, we had a comfortable and pleasant stay. We enjoyed that the beach was close by and had fun playing ping-pong and darts in the game room.This converted double-wide has seen better days but was fine for our needs.

Hi Bill! We are so glad you had an enjoyable and comfortable stay. We loved hosting you and hope you will book with us again!
We had a nice time. The house is very spacious, and has all the essentials. The backyard was a bit disappointing, it could use some maintenance and cleaning. Especially given it’s framed as kid friendly; there was dog poop; old rusty nails; the chairs were broken;… all in all still a good stay but the house is clearly a rental.

HI Daphne! We are so glad you enjoyed your stay, but we are sorry the condition of the backyard was not up to our standards. We will share your feedback with our local property team to address. We loved hosting you, and hope you will return!
Nice and tucked in at the end of manzanita town. It was still easy to walk to shops and a quick 2 blocks to the beach. The interesting layout to the upstairs room was slightly inconvenient but we managed. Kitchen had everything we needed and enough dishes for each day and we enjoyed grilling as well. Overall a good stay for families with games and ping pong.

Hi Laura! We are glad you enjoyed your stay. We loved hosting your getaway to beautiful Manzanita and hope you will return!
My family stayed here for our annual trip to Manzanita. The house we usually rent was not available. This house looked great online, but the stay was off from
We stayed with friends and our kids. The space was good for a group with a separate area for the loud teens :) We had planned on grilling but the propane tank was empty :( That is an amenity that should probably be double checked as it through a real wrench into our first night.
Good game room, close to town and beach. Overall, a nice place to stay.

Hi Jenny! We are so glad you enjoyed your stay. We appreciate your feedback, and apologize that the propane tank was empty upon arrival. Had we been notified, we would have gladly had our maintenance team promptly drop off another tank. We will share your comments with our local property team to make sure the tanks are being checked during the house cleaning. We loved hosting your group, and hope you will book with us again!
This is a great property and wonderful location - easy walks to the beach, to the golf course, to the town. We were there for a family reunion honoring our 95 year old mother in law. We had hoped to check in an hour early so we could be at the picnic with everyone but were told they needed the full time to be able to ensure the property was clean. When we checked in later that night we kept finding candy wrappers and a couple paper towels on the floor in corners. There was a laundry basket of sheets that were not folded so I assume they were dirty and the corners had a lot of human hair clumps. It was easy enough to clean ourselves but to be told there was no way we could check in earlier so the property would be cleaned seemed a disappointing excuse. Even with that hiccup it really is a great location and Manzanita is a beautiful and fun location.

Thank you for sharing your experience with us, Deborah. We’re so glad to hear that you enjoyed the home’s location and were able to celebrate such a special family occasion in beautiful Manzanita. We do apologize for the condition of the home upon your arrival. That is not the standard we aim to uphold, and we understand how frustrating it must have been—especially after being told we needed the full time to prepare the home properly. Your feedback has been shared with our local housekeeping team to make sure our standards are being upheld. We hope we’ll have the opportunity to provide you with a smoother experience next time!

Liked: Check-in, location
Disliked: Cleanliness
The location was great and we enjoyed going to the beach and being close enough to downtown to walk to it. Unfortunately, we were not able to use one of the rooms after our first night due to a bat that had found its way into the room. After our stay, we went into the room and found feces and urine on the beds and other places in the room from some kind of pest. The cleanliness of the house was not so great; it looked like no one had swept under the beds and other furniture for a long time. Some of the pieces of furniture were old and falling apart, and a chair broke while my daughter was just sitting in it. We recommended that the owners examine all of the furniture and test it to make sure it was sturdy. After registering all of these complaints, we were happy that we were refunded for part of our stay. We would be happy to stay in the house again if the above issues were addressed: rodent and bat presence, cleanliness, replacing unsturdy furniture.
