We enjoyed our stay in this home - it's all about location! Just steps from the beach and a short walk to the "downtown" area, we loved the convenience of enjoying the best of Manzanita. Some of the reviews talk about the house being in need of updates. Sure, it's not the most modern home, with hotel-quality beds/towels. But it is very well-appointed and was an excellent homebase for the exploring we did up and down the coast. And, again, you cannot beat the accessibility to the ocean! one more thing...after visiting Astoria, Cannon Beach, etc. I'm SO glad we went with Manzanita. It has far fewer tourists and is so quiet and charming, in comparison. Highly recommend this property!

Wonderful cottage in charming Manzanita

We had a wonderful stay at the beach cottage. We loved the location and being able to walk into town and the beach. We spent a lot of time on the deck enjoying the peacefulness of the view of the ocean. Thank you!

Great location

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was clean. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Beach house is walking distance to everything. Has most of the basic utensils, etc. I do employee the management to investigate what the musty smell is in the green bedroom. It smells like a bad mattress or dry rot. I don't know. Also needs a professional carpet cleaning in main room. Past pet spots not removed well. Could use some pruning in front yard as it is a bit overgrown. Truthfully, a carpet cleaning and some better bedroom furniture would improve the stay a lot. We should have used the other bedroom except the morning sun wakes you up too early.

Wonderful house and walking distance to the beach! We could hear and see the ocean from the deck. House was very comfortable and kitchen was reasonably stalked with utensils. We will definitely stay here again.

First of all, prior to check in we received notice the Dryer was broken. Second, this house has a major Ant problem. There were numerous traps in the kitchen, but we still saw ants on the kitchen counter. Third, urin odor, perhaps from previous guests with pets. Also a blanket removed from the closet was foul smelling. Fourth, the wifi completely died. We restarted the modum, re-installed the Roku, without success. This caused us to leave a day early! Fifth, daily rental rates. This is EXTREAMLY aggravating. The dsy before our check in the daily rate was 106.00 next weeks, mid-week rates are 118.00-127.00 we were charged 141.23 for Tuesday and Wednsday. I can understsand higher weekend rates. But why the huge variance on mid-week rates. On a positive note, the location was very nice. Kitchen dishes, glasses, flatware, and utensils were nice. Needless to say, this was a disappointing rental that caused us to depart a day early.

Location was amazing, shower curtain was pretty new, and couch/loveseat were very nice, but the good things about the property stopped there. ALL the linens, including pillows, looked like they were picked up at Goodwill. Pillowcases were fraying they were so old. The dryer was pulled out three or so feet with both shredded and intact venting on the floor. The smell in the house was bad, to the point my husband bought a candle to burn. I could go on but you get my point. Unsure how this property could have good ratings unless it was simply based on location. I would not rent this house again.

The only positive thing this place has going for them is the location. There were ants inside that got into our food, cobwebs, spiders, and dead bugs around the baseboards, and because we had to strip the bed we unfortunately saw all the stains all over the mattress that were not from us! Disgusting! We were also told two hours prior to check in that the dryer didn’t work which was a HUGE inconvenience. We chose this location because of the washer and dryer as we are traveling around the country and had planned to do laundry at this location. It also appeared that it had been broken from quite some time so we should have been notified sooner and given the option to cancel. There were ant traps all over the unit so they know they have an ant issue. They need to get an exterminator. There were also rusty utensils in the kitchen utensil drawer. Definitely will never stay here again.
