Good location uncomfortable seating

The property is in need of updating. The living room couch was extremely uncomfortable. Microwave was probably 45 years old with dial not push button control. Previous tenant left terrible smelling blanket in ottoman smelling up the small living room. Bed was very comfortable! Location is incredibly easy to walk downtown. We enjoyed our stay, but probably would find something else for future visit.

Cute little cottage

I loved the price for the area. However the couch was not the one in the pictures and was very stiff. The hot water heater was very small, water got cold fast.

Great little cozy house

Cute little house, loved how they have the kitchen bathroom and bedroom stocked with amenities. This is a plus!! The down side is that there is no washer or dryer to wash your clothes . Also a full size mirror would be great if one is added !! Other than that I would highly recommend and will stay again .

A nice cozy cabin

My husband and I enjoyed our stay here. The bed was comfortable and the place was very clean. It is old, as described, but that was fine with us. We liked that it is back from the beach, in a neighborhood. We had fun figuring out how to use the controllers for the various electronics - be sure not to select "guest" as your identity unless you just want to watch kid shows. The only disappointment was the amount of hot water available - there is a bathtub but the hot water ran out before it finished filling. Not sure if the thermostat could be turned up - you would have to ask. Also of note we stayed in late October and the nights dropped into the 30's. The space heaters kept the living area and bedroom warm, but not the bathroom.

Birthday Getaway

The home is small, but adequate. Quiet location. Kitchen stocked with all the basics. Our only complaint was the steps weren't shoveled. We couldn't locate a shovel so ended up using the dustpan to clear a path. Not only was it inconvenient to walk through the snow, that went over our shoes, but your service charges us for this to be taken care of and it is a safety concern. The other minor complaint is there is no heat in the bathroom. There was a portable mini-heater but it didn't work. I would not suggest a winter visit here. This location is perfect for a summer visit.

Happy Crabby Shack

The house is clean but needs some electrical work and plumbing work. The tub wouldn't drain . Also if you use the microwave and the toaster at the same time it trips the breaker and shuts the power to the kitchen off. It seems unsafe to have so many things running off power strips. I also wouldn't recommend this place to older people. There is a lot of stairs you have to carry luggage up! I didn't know about that when I made the reservation. My husband has heart problems and it was a challenge for him. Very disappointing!

"Happy Crabby Aerie"

This little gem of a tiny home is just right! I love how it's up on a bit of a hill, and you go to sleep and wake up to birdsong. [Also a plus, in my book, that it's right on a tsunami evac route.] Close enough that walking to everywhere is a breeze; far enough removed that you hardly hear traffic or anything but the ocean roar. Comfy bed. Funky fun windows to figure out how to create a breeze inside. Dany porch. I brough an x-pen for the pup that allowed him to roam the porch area freely. Solid wifi connection the whole time. Vacasa was great, too - notifying in advance of a potential temporary power outtage. Plus everything super-clean! There are a few things to cope with in an old house like this, but I didnt mind. I would join in with a few other reviewers and urge the owners to replace the couch! It is nice and clean, but very awkward for sitting - definitely no "deep couch sitting" possible!" But that's just a minor detail. Would stay there again - and still not like the sofa!

Would stay again

Overall the property was good. It was big enough for 2 adults and could fit 3 but that would be tight. The third would need to sleep on the futon in the living room. Not something I'd want to do seeing how sitting on it wasn't the most comfortable because it is really firm. The place was older and worn but clean and tidy. A couple others mentioned the hot water being an issue and it was for us too. It lasted for one 15 min shower and a few min into the second shower the water was cold. The faucet in the bathroom was also really loose. Bed was comfortable and there are plenty of utensils in the kitchen. TV worked fine (although we only watched it for about 45 min). Didn't use the WiFi so I have no feedback there. The only other concern would be for someone that has a difficult time with stairs. It is a pretty steep climb from the parking spot on the street to the front door. Just something to consider. The location is really good being walking distance to the beach, grocery store, coffee shop and restaurant/bar. Overall, it was a good place to stay and we would definitely stay again.

Quirky, Cozy Comfort

This sweet little cottage is endearing, quirky and cozy. However, getting to it is something else all together! Stairs which are MANY, are seen when viewing photo but EXTREMELY underestimated. The bottom stairs are dangerous as the fill rock has sunken to where stair frame tops are above rock grade for tripping on way down. The grass area between the lower stairs and deck stairs up to cottage is super uneven and slippery when damp. Cottage is well stocked with a comfortable bed. The shower however is a trip! Curtain enclosure is disorienting balance wise. We had to call Vacassa help for tv help for turning tv on and connecting to cable. It would be nice to have printed instructions as it was easy once the cable guy came out to help us. A light in cutout above sink would prove extremely helpful in dish washing. Dishes weren't the cleanest so we washed them before using. Pots and pans need replacing. All but two are rusted inside. Upon leaving we were asked to turn on the humidifier which we tried to do but to no avail as filter was full. We left a note for housekeepers on said humidifier. Speaking of housekeepers, Holy Cow! They were waiting for us to leave as soon as we put the car in gear! All in all, we enjoyed our time. Stayed in more than we would normally due to stairs trek. Thank You for sharing your cozy little space! Regards, Terry & Connie

Comfortable. Quiet.

This home is both comfortable and a quiet place to stay and rest while visiting Rockaway. It’s comfortable for two people, but could work for up to four. It’s an older home, so there are some things that are clunky and inconvenient. But they aren’t that big a deal. If you must have modern amenities, this place is not for you. If you don’t mind some minor discomforts, this place will work just fine. We had a great stay, slept very well, and enjoyed the quiet neighborhood.
