Perfect for families!
Posted Aug. 28, 2024 on HomeAway
Great location and spacious home with plenty of room for everyone! Our family of 5 (2 adults, 2 teens and a 9yr old) had a blast staying in this charming older home. Within walking distance to all the shops (less than 10mins), and just a couple blocks from the beach! We loved staying here and hope to come back next summer!

Wonderful Girl's Trip
Posted Aug. 19, 2024 on HomeAwayThis was a very nice place to stay. The house was large enough for our group of 7adults. The only concern was that bedroom windows in the downstairs bedroom were not able to keep open; one window would open but not stay up and the other window (street side), when I opened it the whole pane fell out towards me. I was able to put it back in and shut the window but there wasn't much as far as air flow in that room. Overall, a great location, close to town and the promenade. We had a wonderful time.

Quiet get away
Posted Feb. 25, 2024 on HomeAwayLarge older house, that can accommodate ten people easily. Very clean and close to beach and shopping. This house would be great for large family’s with kids! Nice large patio and beautiful yard. Property had everything we needed.
One shortcoming the gas stove was missing the fuel line so we didn’t get to grill.

Beautiful history
Posted Sep. 10, 2023 on HomeAwayWe loved the history and nostalgia of this house! We are a large group of 10 that attend rod run every year, but have recently started renting homes in Seaside rather than Long Beach. This house is fully stocked with everything you need, so we only packed clothes and food. Of course, cleaning such a large house is a likely a challenge and some windows don’t open (in the room we had) so my husband used a sound machine of the sea, despite being right next to the sea. Parking this many of us was a challenge as the garage was inaccessible despite the listing info. Beds are comfy, everything that really matters was good and we had a great time!

Great Location, Space, & Price
Posted Sep. 3, 2023 on HomeAwayOverall this is a great place to stay. It’s difficult to find a decent house so close to the beach with this kind of space. The yard and balcony are also big pluses. The House is definitely dated and a little rough around the edges. It’s also a shame that there’s no washer/dryer available. But overall we had a great experience and the house worked well for a family with small children.

seaside stay
Posted Aug. 18, 2023 on HomeAwayvery spacey and lots of room to lounge. Unfortunately, the house is just too old. It's a great value for the space but certain areas were just falling apart (deck was about to tilt over from rot). No screens for circulation. was a bit too hot during the summer days. The surprise was that it had plenty of kitchen tools to cook for the family. If they invested in upgrade, could charge more and guest will pay more. Still I'd stay again for sure.

Good location
Posted Aug. 10, 2023 on HomeAwayCouldn’t use upper deck as railing is about to fall off, pretty scary and a disappointment as that is where the view of the ocean is for some of our party that have a hard time making it to the beach.
Plumbing is loud, beds are less than comfortable (as previous reviewers have mentioned).
Really needs access to a washer and dryer for a big family. I wouldn’t rent again due to that…
Having said that, the house is a good size, great location to be close to town and the beach, big yard, plenty of kitchen supplies for a family of 10. Overall a good experience, and with a few repairs and updates it would be amazing place to stay!

Our Birthday VRBO weekend at Seaside
Posted Oct. 9, 2022 on HomeAwayWe didn’t mind the older house and most of the amenities were fine. But what was unacceptable was the power (Electricity) situation. One of the walls on the main floor had NO power! The upstairs thermostat was locked at 55 degrees. We were told because the management did not know where the oil tank was so better to turn off the heat just in case the tank is empty. There were space heaters in the rooms and around the house but this is the problem. We had the breaker trip 6 times between 4-10 pm because we turned on 2 of the space heaters upstairs. So we turned them off and only turned them back on at night. But again, the breaker trip 2 more times between 11 pm to 12 am. We finally gave up and just turned them off. Needless to say, we were freezing while sleeping both nights we were there. Again, an old home is fine but with the amount of money we paid, you would at least expect to have the BASIC NECESSITIES and powers definitely falls in that category! Overall, if we had any choices, we would have moved! Worst experience we have ever had with either AB&B or VRBO and we do at least 4-5 of these types of trips a year and we have been doing this for a long time. If it was not for family that made this even have enjoyable, we probably would have gone home after the first night!

Tony, we sincerely apologize for the issues you encountered with the electricity and are sorry this kept you from enjoying your stay. Our notes indicate that once the breaker switch was flipped, the power was in good working order again. We always strive to provide amazing vacation experiences and are sorry this was not the case for you. We hope you will give us another chance to better impress in the future.
