Dream come true
This beach house was exactly what we were searching for. Great mellow location. The beach is viewed from almost every window. Equipped with everything you will need. The views are spectacular. We seen some of the most amazing scenes while we visited. Kite surfers. Sunrise and sunset. Double rainbows. There was so many beautiful seashells to collect as well. This trip was so important. It was my mother’s bucket list wish. It was heavenly. I recommend this rental to anyone looking for a peaceful beach house that can be enjoyed day and night.

Happy Spring Break at the Harper House
We thoroughly enjoyed our Spring Break vacation at the Harper House. A great home for our rather large family of 7 and everyone loved it. Great views and literally steps from the beach. Added entertainment by surfers and dolphins that was very interesting and exciting. Would love to return and would recommend to friends and family. Thank you to the Harper House for a very fun Spring Break!

Harper House - JAN 2024
The only downside to staying here is the encroachment of the surf that occasionally sweeps beneath the house and driveway. Safe parking for vehicles during these times (...now more frequent) is a challenge.

great location
had an absolute blast right on the beach we do an annual guys fishing trip every year and this has been better than most a few issues we had was first the lady from vacasa called at like 7am on sunday the first morning there not that big of a deal but still dont wake people up on a Sunday morning .
there were cigarette butts all over outside would not have been an issue if the agreement hadn't specifically said no smoking inside and out there were screens laying on the ground missing from windows and a door the ceiling fans throughout were very nasty just about every faucet In the house was dripping trash pickup was also an issue cans were full upon arrival trash was dumped once and it was on a Thursday not Tuesday or Friday like the check in notes and even still they only dumped 1 can

House was great for view and location! Nails sticking up on top deck, floors were sticky, bedroom doors don’t lock, had to buy a coffee pot because the one there was dirty. Didn’t help washing it.! Carpets need a good clean! Loved the living room!

Wonderful view and easy access to the ocean
The house on a few easy steps to the beach it was great to just step onto the beach. We could see the waves and sit and watch the ocean from the living room. We came for the beach. The house is for sale and badly in need of TLC. Some of the sliding patio doors done work, a screen was torn and the first night we saw an American cockroach. The staff at Vacasa were polite and friendly and apologized for this but didn't do much else to correct the situation. A maintenance person came to spray for mold in the AC vents but when asked for pesticides said he could not give any out. We continued to see roaches in the evenings in the kitchen and downstairs. Definitely put a big damper on our time there.

House needs a deep clean
The walls need to be cleaned. All dishes need to be cleaned and floors need a deep clean. Everything from carpet to linoleum is nasty. Couch is nasty so I sat on blankets that I washed before use. Huge roaches in the house! House needs some attention from owners clearly!
