About this property

Kids welcome Pac-Man Arcade! 1 blk to beach. King bed, Pack 'n Play, Fenced yard

Here's what you get at Karr Beach House on Franklin...a comfortable beach cottage designed to feel "beachy" and provide you with everything you need to relax and enjoy as soon as you step through the door. Our house was built in 1926 and we've managed to retain much of it's charm and character without sacrificing our guests convenience and comfort. I'm the owner, Darren, and I'm here to provide you the absolute best service. Call, text, or email...I get them all and respond FAST!

Relax by the wood burning fireplace, walk to downtown (10 min) along the ocean shore on the promenade, play in the water, barbecue your favorite meal, have a bonfire on the beach (1 block away)...It’s all ready and waiting for you!

Our house is dog friendly (fenced yard), and so is the beach! The entire beach is an off-leash dog paradise (owners are VERY responsible and attentive to their dogs). It's a great opportunity for your dog to run around, and make some new friends. REMINDER: We won't charge you a pet fee!

NOTE: Our house will sleep 8 people, but it's pretty tight for 8 adults, especially when there are multiple women. The bunk beds are more suitable for teenagers or small adults. The one bathroom is the main issue for a large group with multiple women. We frequently have 8 guests and it works out just fine for them. Please consider these points before booking this house. If you determine it'll work for your group, book away!!

Our house includes:

King bed, Queen (Casper mattress!) bed, bunk beds (2 beds total), a pull out couch, and a pack n play crib.

1 gas BBQ, 1 charcoal BBQ
Beach chairs, beach toys, buckets, shovel, etc.
High Speed WiFi Internet
4K HD TV

Wood burning fireplace and gas fireplace

Family reunion fun!

We had a wonderful stay for our family of 7. The property had everything we needed. Comfortable house and quiet neighborhood. It is not a modern home, but a fun beach house that is comfortable, welcoming, and decorated with love.

It was an easy walk to the beach. The house has beach equipment to use. Also a fire place to heat the living room. A very inviting place. We would stay here again.

Little peace of paradise

LOVED this home. Quiet neighborhood in walking distance to the main strip and the best beache we have been to in Seaside in 51 years. We FINALLY found sand dollars! Loved that the owner had lots of extra towels and comfy blankets available. A lot of love has gone into this place and we can't wait to stay again!

Great little house, it was everything they promised!

The house comfortably sleeps 6 and has a very neat set up. Only complaint was that the gridle was missing its power cord and we could not find it! Luckily there was a Pig n' Pancake nearby. Beach is very nice near the house and not too busy with people. Overall, a fun and nice place to stay!

Everything we needed

Cozy and comfortable. Listing was very accurate/honest about limitations (one small bathroom, small bunk room for kids). Property manager was extremely responsive when we had an issue with dishwasher. Broken travel crib was replaced immediately. Loved walking to beach and to town on the promenade!

Just ok

Great location, love how close it is to off leash Beach, and promenade is 10 minutes away, beds were very comfortable and over all pertty clean, specially for being dog friendly...how ever There are some things at this house that could definitely use some attention... the bedroom doors do not close Or open very easy Because of old worn out door handles and very loud, the front door has a huge gap where air/daylight shows through...all in all I would definitely stay again at this location, just need a little tlc

Great proximity to quieter Seaside beach

The house's proximity to a quieter part of the Seaside beach is excellent, and it was great to have beach chairs available (though the backpack straps on both seemed broken?). In the house, the furniture in the main room and the queen mattress are both very comfortable, but the toilet handle was a little finicky. Unfortunately, the furnace somehow was completely turned off, so we had to call the onsite property manager, Lonnie, the first night. When we couldn't determine what was wrong over the phone, he came out to make sure it was working and brought an extra space heater in case he couldn't fix it. Luckily he could, and we appreciated him coming out later in the evening!

Great location to the beach and easily walkable for all of seaside. The house had a strong smell and the carpet and floors were dirty- our socks were brown from walking around. There were also big spiders in the bathroom and a hornets nest somewhere (my dad got stung twice). The layout is interesting as you walk through the bathroom to get into the garage so doesn’t feel very private. We left a day early because of these things.

One more night at the ocean

We had a different house for our week stay and wanted to stay another night and found this home available.We did not use the kitchen looked like it had everything needed although looked like it could use a good cleaning. Bathroom was a bit sketchy too although clean.The location was great! And the Seaveiw are was full of great places to eat and have fun at!One note is that the couches were terrible to sit on as they were very old and very well used. We love to sit and talk at night then watch a movie and it was hard to do not enough space and very uncomfortable couch's.

Very close to the beach, had everything we needed to stay, we did find a bunch of cherrios around the dining room table floor, and a bit on the dusty side. We will probably find a different property to stay when we come back to stay in seaside next year.

Very cute, old house in a quiet part of town. Beds were comfortable, the rooms were spacious, and the kitchen had the basics for breakfasts before exploring the town and the beach. The beach is very close and accessible and the house came with a bunch of beach toys, chairs, towels, and even some fishing gear and a clam gun! The kids enjoyed playing the arcade games and the other toys. The parking is a bit tight if you need to park in the garage, but there is an outside spot provided as well. We had a great time and would love to stay again sometime!

National Park vacation

8 of us stayed and had plenty of space for our group. The bathroom situation is odd but it worked. Parking was tight as we had an F150 Supercrew and Ford Explorer. Half of ate at Dooger’s and the others did chipotle at the house. Portions at both were generous.

This little cottage was perfect for our brief stay in Seaside. It was just a short walk to the beach, and the interior was cozy and comfortable for the three of us (2 adults and teen-aged daughter). Nice decorations added to the beach-side atmosphere - we enjoyed the vintage ambience.

About the host

Hosted by Darren Karr

Host profile image
We grew up and lived in the Portland area and enjoyed Seaside for most of our lives. Recently, we moved to Phoenix AZ! We hope our house has everything you want and need. If not, please let us know!

Why they chose this property

We love Seaside. It's only 1.5 hours away from the Portland area and is the quintessential beach town. Seaside offers everything we looked for in a beach town. Downtown Seaside is about 11 blocks away from the house and is less than a 15 minute walk.

What makes this property unique

Our house is our second home. We set it up so we could visit at any time and not have to worry about bringing a bunch of things with us. We want this to be the same for our renters. We want our guests to feel at home at our house and we make it as easy as possible to do that. We also have an easy entrance system in place so there's no need to stop by and pick up a key. We also make it easier on our guests by not asking them to clean when they leave. We want your stay to be as relaxing and trouble-free as possible.
