About this property

"Surfrider" Beach House On the Sand! 3 Bdrm, Sleeps 7 & Dog friendly -MCA#381

If you're going to the stay at the beach, then stay ON THE BEACH in this wonderful family friendly beach house! Oceanfront and right on the sand! AND a fenced courtyard with 6 Adirondack chairs, fire pit and a rustic she-shed. An outside shower is located here too for washing off sandy feet.
Everything is easy access - beginning with a flat driveway and paved pathway to the front door. No worries about lugging luggage or supplies up long flights of stairs.
In warmer weather, simply settle into the 4 adirondack chairs on the back deck or step directly on to the sand with the kids to start playing with the sand toys!
If the weather is better for indoor play, big windows across the dining and great room let in the light and the sunsets while you relax on a comfy leather sectional and cozy up to a real wood fire in the fireplace. Flat screen tv, cable and free Netflix are at the ready.
The kitchen has newer appliances and is large enough to accommodate more than one cook. The large counter and barstools allow others to hang out and talk to the cooks. A generous round dining table welcomes family and friends to gather for meals and to play games.
When you are ready for sleep, the primary bedroom (KING bed and 2nd flatscreen tv) connects to the main bathroom. The second bedroom also has a queen bed. The third bedroom has a queen bed and another separate daybed/couch which is a twin bed (the house sleeps 7 people). The second bathroom, with a stall shower, has a door accessing the outside courtyard for easy clean up of sandy kids. That bathroom also houses a convenient stacked washer and dryer.
The former garage has been turned into a she-shed with French doors to the courtyard, an outside dining table, as well as a whimsical couch for relaxing while you grill on the charcoal BBQ.
Just a few blocks away (easy walking distance) is the charming downtown Manzanita with unique gift shops, a spa, the classic Sand Dune pub, trendy wine bar, convenient grocery store, and several good restaurants. A flat, paved walking and biking lane leads from the house directly to town. The local golf course is around the corner.
If you are a dog lover, you'll appreciate the dog friendly atmosphere of Manzanita and your well-behaved dog is welcome at the beach house too.
FOR SECURITY PURPOSES ONLY: A Blink doorbell is located on the front porch and can see the front door. A second security camera is located at the front of the house and can view the driveway.

Great House and Location

We highly recommend staying at this house. Heads up that it has a charcoal barbecue so you will need charcoal and lighter as it is not provided. Also there is no wood for the fireplace provided either.

Just what we were looking for….

Wonderful location for a peaceful and enjoyable few days for myself, daughter and granddaughter. Very quiet and love the easy access through the dunes to the ocean. The house has been remodeled nicely with plenty of space to spread out. Sitting on the porch watching my granddaughter play in the sand was perfect! The courtyard was better than the photos and a pleasant place to enjoy relaxing. All good things said, one of the beds was very hard, and the house needs a deep cleaning. There was white dog hair fluff on the floor and furniture, in the washer, as well as sand in many places that should have been cleaned prior to our arrival. Additionally, lots of surfaces, window ledges, blinds, floorboards, corners, needing to be wiped to remove the accumulated dust from more than one guest. If it were cleaner, 5 stars would be easy.

Beautiful, clean property. Had everything we needed. Clear instructions and labeling on lights, shower, etc. our only glitch was trying to figure out whether the fireplace flue (sp?) was open or not. Highly recommend this place.

A Manzanita Get Away

Generally a good experience and the unit was perfectly located, beds were comfortable, living area and kitchen were good etc. Wives and women in group did not think cleanliness was up to par. Lots of dirt and hair on floors when we moved furniture to accommodate what we needed, indicating a lack of deep cleaning

Absolutely the best

Once you spend a few days in Manzanita, you realize that some very lucky people live in houses right on the beach. Not a block away. Not across the street. ON THE BEACH. This is the perfect rental home in every practical way. And. It's right on the beach. Large, spacious and comfortable. Exactly as advertised.

Duped

the VRBO ads are very deceiving because the photos make you think you can sit on the patio and look out on the beach and ocean. You can't. There are sand dunes between the patio and the beach which block your view and which are also very hard to walk over to reach the beach especially if you are an older person. This is not a beachfront property. VRBO and the property owner lied in order to make money.

Relaxing family weekend getaway

Three generations of our family enjoyed a quiet vacation here. Was wonderful to be right on the beach, kids dug in the sand while we relaxed on the deck. Comfy beds and a great house. We enjoyed a wonderful time here. Will definitely be returning for future trips!

About the host

Hosted by Julie Dunn

Host profile image
As native Oregonians, we enjoyed this family beach house while we raised 5 kids in the Portland area. We spent many weekends here all year round and now that the kids are grown, we've opened this home for others to enjoy. My father lived at the coast growing up, so this part of Oregon will always be special to our family.

Why they chose this property

We believe Manzanita is the best beach town on the Oregon Coast. There is no highway (or train track) going through it, which allows for a very walkable and quiet spot for shops and restaurants. It has maintained it's charm while attracting unique gift and art shops, and great dining. There is great hiking, local parks and a golf course.

What makes this property unique

We fell in love with this property over 20 years ago because it is ON THE BEACH. We can literally take one step off the deck and play in the sand.
The public beach access is just a couple of homes away, so easy for us, yet doesn't allow for people to be wandering by the windows.
