Blissfull Beach House

We had a great time with all of our family at this home. We had plenty of room and it was a lovely home so if you have multiple couples this is perfect. The bedrooms are large and have plenty of room. The location was also perfect. It was very close to food and the beach. A surf shop next door, pizza across the street and a brewery/dining establishment a block away at most that served fantastic beer and food. We had a deer and her fawn in the backyard in the morning and evening along with a mother rabbit and her babies. We went clamming and crabbing 5 miles away at Waylen Island which was a nice place out of the wind for the kids and a park like setting. We golfed in Lincoln City but I would recommend early morning or evening walks on the beach to avoid the wind. The only negative thing was the lock on the bathroom door didn't work and there is no door on the upstairs master bathroom so for a large group we had to get inventive for bathroom privacy. This house is not handicap accessible (you must go up stairs to enter in the back) so if that is needed you won't be able to stay here. We did 2 short duration grillings before the grill ran out of gas so I would recommend they have the caretakers check that routinely because when you are on vacation you don't want to have to deal with that. I would recommend fixing the downstairs lock and somehow putting a door on the upstairs bathroom since we spent alot of time up there with everyone because it is a LARGE bedroom with a sitting room with a fantastic view of the ocean and beautiful sunsets with a baclony; in fact it is the best room in the house! We would have to chase everyone out when the bathroom was needed. All in all, we had a wonderful time and enjoyed the property very much and would certainly rent it again and plan to go back in the future. I would have given a 5 instead of a 4 if the gas on the grill was full but I was a little taken back when I called the owner and he told me to go fill it myself...instead of them calling someone to take care of it....after all, we were on vacation.

Owner's Response: We will be addiing a door to the upstairs bathroom to make is more private and I have spoken with housekeeping to keep an eye on the gas for the grill.
The lock on the downstairs bathroom is being taken care.
Thank you so much for the wonderful review. This is our private beach house and we take pride in keeping it in great shape so our guest have a wonderful experience.
