My parents absolutely LOVED this stay that I surprised them with for their anniversary! They did not have to drive anywhere! They felt like they had privacy; yet, it was near everything at the same time. I really appreciated the complimentary welcome bag for them all the perks that came with the stay! The communication was great as well.10/10!!

This cabin was perfect for a mini getaway with my husband. It was in a beautiful location, a short walk to the square and beach. Quaint and beautiful!

Perfect FIRST trip to Seaside

Loved our first experience at Seaside. The Wayback gave us the perfect amount of space considering we did not spend the majority of our time in the house. Would definitely reserve this vacation home again. Thanks Seaside!

Authentic, timeless home that is simply excellent

We loved the simplicity and style of this home. It stood out from the typical beach home- was super clean, in an exceptional location, beautiful woods all around it, charming walks with our dog in all directions through the surrounding central Seaside neighborhood. Just couldn't ask for anything more.

Fun Seaside Property

Small but perfect 2 person stay in Seaside. Ideal location walking distance to beach. Nussled inbetween two larger houses this property has everything you need and more to include heated bathroom floors. You may not have room to host a dinner party but all other amenities made up for it!

SUPER Location

Home is cute and sweetly stocked take home goodies. Bring your own K cups if you want to brew coffee at house. It very much is a tiny home so you have to get creative on where to unpack / store luggage. Location cannot be beat! Easy breezy walk to anywhere you want to go in the Seaside shopping/dining/beach area. Also backs up to WaterColor and easy walk to their boathouse for paddle boarding.
