6 Houses to Beach & 1 Block to Town in Seaside & Pet Friendly + 2 Adult Bikes

1 King, 2 Queens

Craving some beach time in a prime Seaside location? Look no further than Persimmon Cottage!

This charming, PET-FRIENDLY retreat is ideally situated just a short stroll to Seaside’s Adult and Family Pools, tennis courts, playground, and fitness center—and only minutes from the town center and beach. Whether you're soaking up the sun, exploring local shops, or enjoying dinner under the stars, Persimmon offers the perfect home base for your stay.

On the first floor, you’ll find two inviting queen bedrooms, each with its own private half bath featuring a single vanity and toilet. Between the two bedrooms is a shared rustic-style sunken shower and an additional sink area. Step out to the spacious screened rear porch, where you’ll discover outdoor dining for four and extra lounge seating—an ideal spot to sip a nightcap or enjoy your morning coffee in peace.

Upstairs, the second floor offers a bright and open living space that includes a fully equipped kitchen with stainless steel appliances, a dining area with seating for six, and a cozy living room for relaxing after a day at the beach. Off this main living area is a full bath with a tub/shower combo. Just beyond the kitchen, step into the true highlight of the home—a generous screened-in porch with an al fresco dining area for six and an Adirondack seating area for four, perfect for sunset dinners or lazy afternoons.

Head up to the third floor to discover the most private retreat of all: a serene king bedroom with its own Juliette-style wrap-around balcony, offering sweeping rooftop views and fresh coastal breezes. (Please note: the bathroom for this bedroom is located on the second floor.)

If you’re dreaming of the ultimate Seaside getaway, Persimmon is calling your name. Book your stay today and make unforgettable beach memories!

**A Perfect Getaway in Seaside**

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We absolutely loved our stay! The home’s eclectic style added a unique charm, and the short walk to the private beach entrance and Seaside town center made exploring effortless. Nestled in a quiet neighborhood, the property offered plenty of space inside and out—cozy, comfortable, and beautifully stocked with kitchen amenities. One unforgettable moment was when our small dachshund, Beau, slipped out an open door. The incredible Seaside community, employees, and Homeowners Collection went above and beyond to help us find him, and after two anxious hours, we were reunited. Their kindness truly speaks to the warmth of this area. We’ll definitely be repeat guests—highly recommend this wonderful home and its amazing surroundings!

Lovely porches, relaxing vacation at Persimmon

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We thoroughly enjoyed our time in Seaside, and Persimmon fit us perfectly. The porch off the kitchen really made it for us - great for first thing in the morning coffee. Strolling around Seaside, going to the market and watching kids play in the bowl, easy access to the beautiful, biking around to Grayson and Alys beach! Helpful staff! We plan to come back!

Great Spring Break

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: charming house that was well appointed with everything we needed. The downstairs bedrooms are set up nicely, and the shower that opens up to the porch is a great way to keep sand out of the house!! The top floor bedroom is very small, and the bed had a twin topper on it which made for an odd sleeping experience. The screened in porches were great for morning coffee and late night chats! I do think the house could benefit from some updates, but overall we would stay here again!

Very Disappointing and Dissatisfied

Rating Details: The vacation rental was somewhat dirty. I was very happy with the location. I was somewhat dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This stay was the worst of our cottage rental stays/property and we’ve been coming since 1998. The dishes were dirty and placed in the cabinet for use as if they were clean.

Lovely beach cottage

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This was a wonderful home away from home during our recent spring break stay! The location was great, the complimentary bikes were appreciated, and the home was comfortable and clean. We had very spotty wifi at the beginning of the visit, but the management company worked diligently to fix the problem. Our only complaint was that there is no bathroom on the 3rd floor. The web description for Persimmon claims that on the third floor “a queen sized bedroom offers up another bath” plus a private balcony. Very misleading!

Persimmon

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was somewhat dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Great experience with the rental company. Love the location of the house. Very outdated furniture. I’d lay out. Much of the tile needs repair. They have outdoor furniture as the couch inside. I would rent again probably because of the location but house needs updating. It was very clean and that’s a positive.

Eh for a seven day stay

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was very dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: For the price that we paid, the house was not what I expected. The beds were not comfortable, the pillows were flat, there were no closets downstairs and no hangars in the one closet upstairs. The couch was outdoor furniture - which clearly other people had complained about because there was extra foam under which did not help. This property could use an upgrade.

Recent stay at Persimmon

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was somewhat dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Was very disappointed that Master Bath was not on same floor as Master bedroom, which it advertised as being. And Master BR had no door so you could hear everything from the living room. Kitchen area was also very small with inadequate counter top space. Living room couch was very uncomfortable- like dorm room furniture. But location was great and house was clean.

Visit to seaside

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was somewhat dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: While I found the property to be overall clean, there is a strong musty smell all thru the house. The downstairs shower door does not close or lock correctly. The WiFi did not work at all. I called homeowners collection twice and left messages, no response back. I would not rent this house again.

Needs Appliance Update

Rating Details: The property manager was somewhat unhelpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The washing machine did not work for the entire stay. A washing machine is an essential at the beach. Customer service inattention and minimal response to this was unacceptable. I had to call several times to finally get fresh towels/wash cloths delivered. The first time they brought bath mats instead of towels and we had nothing to shower with after a day at the beach. I walked to the town center to try to locate the office to exchange the bath mats and there was no office that was easily accessible/locatable to guests. I called the number only to be told I would have to wait on housekeeping to bring towels to our cottage, that the office (which I never actually found), could not swap the bath mats for me. Customer service didn't follow up with us and let us know the washing machine was not going to be fixed while we were there. We went the whole week without being able to wash clothes/swim suits/beach towels, when we packed as though we would be able to. We have been vacationing in Seaside for years and have stayed in a HomeOwners Collection Cottage before. This was not handled as it should have been, per the standards they normally maintain. Appliances should be updated in the cottages regularly and maintained for guests. Having a washer/dryer set up that is over 15/20 years old is asking for dissatisfied guests. So disappointing.

A disappointing cottage

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: After over 65 cottage rentals in Seaside over the years, this is the first time I would NOT recommend a house. Homeowners Collection is a wonderful agency and I love working with them however this house is just too quirky. The main bedroom doesn't have a door and the main bathroom is on a different floor. Two bedrooms don't have closets. The sofa is basically an outdoor sectional. There are no fans on the porches. On the other side, Tupelo is a wonderful street with the prettiest and and most accessible pavilion. And the cottage is near the tennis courts and two of the pools The screened porches are very roomy. The unit has a Keurig if you want to bring your own pods. I'm sorry to write a negative review but I wish I had known the inconveniences.

Loved it!

This property was perfect for our family. The location was wonderful and we loved the screened in porch and other outdoor areas. The kitchen is small but well stocked and organized. Bathrooms and bedrooms were spotless. Previous reviews mentioned mattress issue with third floor bed. It seems to have been resolved. It was very comfortable,

Undesired floor plan

Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was clean. I was more than happy with the location. I was very dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The photos and layout are misleading. The 2 bedrooms on the first level share the walk-in shower. However, both bedrooms open into the shower area which is inconvenient as you have to make sure others know you may step out of the shower. There is no closets in either bedroom downstairs. One bedroom has no dresser or anything to put clothes in. There was no ironing board. The chairs on the upstairs porch are broken. This home needs cleanup and work completed. Would not recommend.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. 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: The house was overall nice. The bed in the upstairs bedroom was terrible. It was a full sized bed with 2 twin mattress toppers that didn’t fit the bed. The couch wasn’t great either to sit around with family and friends on. If those 2 things were changed, this house would be perfect.

Great Location. Great Accommodations.

We really enjoyed our stay at Persimmon. It was my husband and myself and three college-aged kids and we had plenty of sleeping space and places to spread out. Can't beat the location being near Seaside and the beach. The management company was very on it, too, to ensure that everything was perfect.
