The price to rent this house is very reasonable, however, unless you are an extreme minimalist or live close enough to drive with a packed car, be aware of the areas lacking in the house. We stayed for three nights in September. It was close to 90 out during our stay, but the house doesn't have air conditioning or a single fan. The only ceiling fan is broken, and the screens were in such poor shape that we had hundreds of bugs come in when we opened the windows to cool the house down. A few fans would have made a difference in comfort. The beds were uncomfortable as has been noted in other reviews. My sister and I used the room with twin beds, which were obviously planned for kids. The mattresses are very cheap, camp-type mattresses with plastic covers- very noisy to sleep on. My mom had a queen bed with a heavy, winter- weight comforter while the twin beds only had a top sheet and blanket. None of us got great sleep. And the kitchen- poorly stocked is an understatement. Salt, pepper- yes. Other spices, plastic wrap, aluminum foil, nonstick spray? No. We actually planned to cook and eat in, but had to get creative to prepare meals with the pack of amenities. Overall, if you are looking for an extremely budget friendly vacation spot, this is a good choice. Very close to the beach and Tillamook for things to do. I think we would have paid more for a better-appointed house- the lack of extras felt like it took away from the experience. This is a newer vacation rental, and with a few upgrades could be a really fantastic place in the future.

The kitchen was well stocked and the house was clean. However, there was a lot of cobwebs, spider webs, and lots, and lots of spiders. All beds were uncomfortable, sunken in, and you can feel the springs. There was only one working porch light which made it very difficult to see outside during dusk. The back yard was nice, however everything was covered in spiders.

A beautiful location. Lots of wildlife and beach access a couple of blocks away.

Excellent

We loved the location, it was a short walk to a nice beach. The house could have been a tad cleaner. Perfect for small babies, kids and teens. We enjoyed our stay! The pull out bed was the most comfortable bed. Lots of towels and a full functional kitchen!

We could not have asked for a better location! The house is a mere 2 blocks from a sandy beach where we enjoyed playing and relaxing as a family. I was very impressed especially with the options available for my kids (ages 2 and 4) at the house -- a well-stocked bookshelf of children's books, a toy box of miscellaneous and random toys, and LOTS of game options, even for their young ages. It made our stay much more enjoyable for all! My only complaints were scratchy bed linens, less than fantastic mattresses, and brand new unwashed towels that left your wet body covered in white fuzz. And a missing hair dryer which was specifically mentioned as an amenity...I would have happily packed one except the listing said one was provided. Also, there is absolutely nothing provided in the cupboards or fridge as far as spices or condiments or even coffee or tea. Still, the house met our needs quite well and we made some great memories as a family!

The ground floor absolutely reeked of cat piss. The smell was overwhelming, even though I have my own cats at home. The light fixtures in two of the bedrooms were industrial fluorescent tube lighting which were very unpleasant. The shower seems to have a leak or some kind of plumbing issue behind the wall and the dripping sound could be heard all the way down the hall in the farther bedroom. The bathroom floor mats were padded with foam and were soaking wet, which is really gross not knowing what they’d soaked up. The glass on the flat-top stove was broken. There was a huge jagged sharp-edged hole over the back left burner which they’d tried to cover with a teapot. The dishwasher was full of dishes. The dining table was lit with extremely bright LED bulbs that gave the same light as the fluorescent lights in the bedroom. It might seem like a petty complaint, but it was a jarring mismatch with all the other light fixtures. Overall it was cheaply furnished and way overpriced.

This is a comfortable and nicely organized house with places to relax and enjoy the beach. The location just a short walk from the beach was great for our family.
