The home was not as expected. Very old, smelled of mildew, stains on furniture and pillows, rotten wood on deck. Manager did offer an alternative place or refund.

The property needs to be updated. There was only one usuable beach chair. The front door lock was stuck and we couldn't use the frint door for 3 days. There was a pile of junk in the back storage area and the frint porch chairs were broken

Senior Trip
We chose this property for its location because parking can be difficult at Seaside. We were able to park our vehicles and not use them again the entire week. Everything was close enough to walk, bike or ride a golf cart. We didn’t have to take a bunch of stuff with us to the beach because we could just walk to the house to get food and drinks. If you are petty about noise this may not be the house for you. There is a lot of traffic and teens on the street which did not bother us since we also have young adult children. You do have to walk through a bedroom to get to a bathroom so plan accordingly when picking your room. There was plenty of room to park 2 vehicles and 2 golf carts. We could have parked more vehicles there if needed. I do wish there was a covered porch area to sit outside when it rained and a half bath that was not in a bedroom, but at least you have hot water in the outdoor shower. We would definitely rent this house again.

Great location
The location of this property was excellent. The walkway to the beach is right across the road and it is only a pleasant 1/2 mile walk to the middle of Seaside. It had plenty of beds and room for my family of 5. This is an older house, so if you are looking for that fancy Seaside beach house this one is not for you. However, it is very clean and well maintained. We would stay there again.
