Wonderful birthday weekend in Manzanita!

The house was so nice! The beds have the most comfortable mattresses. The house and yard were so sweet to stay in. I highly recommend this house for your next trip to the coast! We also loved all the whales!

Manzanita beach rental

Great house. Well stocked, clean and comfortable. Close to downtown and short walk to beach. The door locks are confusing, but once solved we had a great time. Beautiful private back yard.

Dog Friendly House

We enjoyed our stay. It was nice having a fully fence patio/yard to let the dog out in the mornings and while we ate dinner on the deck. House was in easy walking distance to beach and village.

Manzanita Four Night Stay

This is a lovely small home in Manzanita in a quiet and walkable neighborhood. A leisurely 10 minute walk will get you 'downtown' and a 15 minute walk to the beach. House is comfortable, well equipped, with wonderful outdoor seating. Or stay indoors with the cozy gas fireplace. Had a friend come stay for one night too. Plenty of room. Loved how peaceful it all was! 'Move in' ready!

Smaller home suitable for my husband and I, but would seem small for a family. Nicely stocked kitchen. Would have appreciated some jigsaw puzzles or additional board games for those rainy days.

Lovely house! The location is great with easy access to town and the beach. It was a little cold to make use of the patio, but we made use of the gas fireplace after our walks on the beach.

Perfect family retreat

The house was super cute and had everything we could want for a nice relaxing time at the beach for a family of four. Safe for 2 kids under 3 years old. They loved it! The only negative was the master bedroom pillows smelled like wet dog but that's an easy fix - just need replaced. Would definitely stay here again.

Nice but not clean

The home was nice but after an hour of settling in we realized a lot of fur and hair were all over everything. Like a vacuum was not involved in the clean up. Made us think what else was missed. Complained to management and are awaiting a response.

A top knotch stay

One of those rare experiences where the property turns out better than described and pictured on the web. Way better. Very well kept and decorated, comfortable, tech ready (amazing sound system!), incredibly well stocked kitchen. Great furniture. Everything in excellent working order. And a private back yard/patio with brightly painted furniture. No Covid worries, exceptionally clean.
