We had a lovely Thanksgiving break with our family in Nehalem! This house was a great spot for grandparents and pre-teens + dogs. Close three block access (down a big hill) to the beach and comfy bedrooms. There oddly wasn't any hand soap but the management company provided a little dish soap, paper towels and laundry detergent. We didn't use the hot tub bc of other activities. The backyard is really only to access the hot tub or to let the dogs out briefly if needed in the night. We really enjoyed our time at this adorable house!

We had a good stay. The neighborhood was quiet, it was a quick drive and/or a lovely walk into town, and the hot tub and fireplace were lovely additions. The kitchen is fully stocked and there is a lot space. However, one of the beds was incredibly uncomfortable - so much so that we moved rooms to be in a different bed and that one wasn’t much better. Also, the couch had so many stains on it. I recognize this is a pet friendly space (we brought our dog!!) but it felt like the couch wasn’t being cleaned regularly more so than it was just a used couch. Finally, there aren’t many bathroom amenities - bring your own toiletries, etc.

Beautiful location on the coast. Felt like a treehouse oasis. We enjoyed the deck and the sunshine as well as walkability to the beach. Only couple of drawbacks were a lingering strong food smell in the kitchen-likely from what the previous guests had cooked. We missed having soap provided in master bath/upstairs bath-but could have gotten some at the local grocery store very easily. Very pet friendly, toys available for the dogs-plenty of extra bowls! If you have kids there are a lot of toys and a cute kids room too. Awesome hot tub. Soft comfy beds! Overall great stay.
