Cheerful House

We had a great time in Manzanita in this house. If the weather is nice, there are chairs out back with a yard. There is enough room for everyone to spread out or hang out together in the dining room or living room. Comfortable beds. Really clean, would stay here again.

Family Stay

Very clean and comfortable property, located close to the main part of Manzanita and a nice walk to the beach. The house was a central location for our other family members staying elsewhere in Manzanita and we never felt cramped. We had our grandson's 3rd birthday party at the house. Highly recommend.

Manzanita Beach Charmer

We enjoyed our Manzanita Beach vacation. The home was well stocked and comfortable. We enjoyed our walks through town and the beach was great. Dogs everywhere! Our daughter's pup had a wonderful time. What a cute town center with everything we needed within easy walking distance. Would definitely come back to Manzanita Beach.

Quick beach therapy

Thank you for hosting us again. It was the perfect get away. We should have gotten 3 nights instead of 2! One more night of beach and time to enjoy the area. It’s about a 5-7 min walk to the beach, so not super accessible if you’re physically injured/handicapped. However, it’s the perfect home to find time with the family and they’re incredibly helpful with setting up with a service dog!

Manzanita Stay

Check in/check out was smooth, enjoyed easy communication with the owner prior to visit, good location for walking to beach and town amenities. It was great to not get in our car the whole weekend! Lodging was comfortable, well-supplied with condiments/basics as well as decent offering of kitchen supplies/utensils for cooking and baking. Appreciated dog friendly lodging, was clean even though dogs allowed. Would definitely rent again.

Great Little Beach House

We had a great time in Manzanita at this beach cabin! It's located very close to town and about a block from the big grocery store near the highway. Also, it's very well equipped with everything you might need (our family cooks a lot and found everything we needed.) The back yard is spacious with plenty of chairs for everyone. Would recommend to anyone wanting to enjoy some time at the Oregon coast!

Great location, you can park the car and walk everywhere. Pet friendly but the backyard is not completely fenced. Clean cheerful atmosphere. Kitchen is well set up. The fan over the stove is very loud & obnoxious. Needs addressed. Will definitely stay again.

Nice house with open layout. Walking distance to everything. The yard not being fully fenced is the only downside with a dog. We had a great time & would stay here again.

My family and I spent five days at this vacation home. Our stay was perfect. The home was well appointed with everything you could need. We cooked many meals and walked into town every day for leisure and shopping. The hosts were very hospitable and quick with communication. We will try to book here again and recommend it.

An older house that's been upgraded on a quiet street near downtown. Well-equipped kitchen, plenty of dinnerware. The TV is a little complicated, but we finally figured it out.

Perfect beach getaway

We come to Manzanita every spring break and this was the best place we’ve stayed so far. Very clean and well maintained. The layout was great for our small family and dog. Perfect distance to town and beach- we never had to drive.

Great home in the perfect location

The home had everything we needed including kitchen cookware. Lots of natural light, comfortable beds. A couple minor problems: 1) the entry code to the house had been changed from instructions given; 2) second bath had a clogged drain.

About the host

Hosted by Sandy McCready

Host profile image
We reside in Portland, Oregon and love our beach getaway trips to Manzanita. The house was in tough shape when we purchased it and we did extensive remodeling to make it a comfortable retreat.

Travel is among our favorite hobbies and we frequently book our vacations using VRBO properties. Because we stay in short-term rentals ourselves, we appreciate the the needs of traveler and work hard to provide the amenities that make it a home.

Why they chose this property

We chose to purchase in Manzanita because it's a short 1 1/2 hrs from Portland, Oregon. It's a great residential beach town with just enough commercial to keep you comfortable, but its missing the crowds found in other coastal locations.. The geography on this part of the coast often shields Manzanita from some of the increment weather of our northern coastal towns. The expansive 7-mile long beach offers families room to spread out.

What makes this property unique

Manzanita has a laid back atmosphere with friendly local merchants and residents. Our home is ideally located which makes it very walkable to all amenities as well as to the beach. It's also a good take off point to other Oregon coastal activities.
