Cedar house

The location and being secluded were great. Had a view of the ocean from the deck. The kitchen was stocked pretty well also. That was the good things. The place was smaller than it was portrayed. The stairs were very dangerous and the place wasn't clean.the rooms all had bedding from 1980 and the carpet in the house was old and disgusting. Only place to sit was at the dining table in chairs that were falling apart or a love seat in the main room. Overall it was a big disappointment and the price for such a run down place is crazy

It was a very secluded and cozy. Great view of the beach. Kitchen and living room area was super nice to hang out in. Maybe a little dated but it’s a beach house on the Oregon coast and the proximity to things we wanted to do was great. Would stay there again and again.

Good and bad

Property location is amazing. Easy access to the beach. Isolated. Previous reviews mentioned musty smell and it exists but you can tell the ground floor has recently been upgraded. New floors in common areas, new kitchen and paint. But all of the bedrooms have old or no carpet and there was visible dirt in corners in upstairs bedroom. Beds were in need of upgraded mattresses. We enjoyed our stay but hope they continue to upgrade bedrooms. The general dirty old carpets and dirt in corners needs to be addressed. The washing machine was not working and management company was responsive. They couldn’t fix it but tried.

DO NOT STAY HERE!!

This place was dirty. Piles of dog hair and cobwebs in the corners upstairs. Closets are creepy and furniture in front of them which adds to the creepiness. Like why are they blocked? Also most are off hinges. Beds and pillows are super uncomfortable. I tried to just enjoy my stay and deal with trying to get some of our money back later because I didn’t want to spend my trip complaining but don’t do that either. You have to be ON SITE to get any communication apparently. Beach access is down the road which wasn’t bad but the house just ugh. We will not book with this host anymore. Also for the record I complained first about the house while I was there and never got an answer. I shouldn’t have to spend a ton of time trying to call someone when I’m on my trip!!!! I also took photos of the pieced together walls and flooring and dirt oh and check your “pillow” for termites before you go to sleep. Ewwwwwww!!!

Great getaway!

I’m not sure why people have left such scathing reviews on this place, they must’ve fixed the sewage issue becuase it only smelled a little musty, which is to be expected in an old unique coastal house such as this. The walk down to the beach was totally do-able as long ans you anre anble-bodied and the views and breeze off the back patio were magical!

Beautiful views with peaceful setting.

My wife and I recently stayed. The views were great and the house was in a very quiet and peaceful setting. Very convenient to both Depoe Bay and Newport. The house was older but the kitchen was very modern and well supplied. We travel frequently and my wife said that this was her favorite stay. Mostly because of the beach access and peaceful atmosphere. We would definitely stay again. Mike & Kirstin

Beautiful coastal view

Our coastal visit was so peaceful and enjoyable! We loved sitting on the deck for coffee and some meals while watching for whales with our binoculars. The beach was a close walk down. The older ones of us had hiking poles, and the toddler maneuvered the trail ok. The location of the house was close for visiting Devil’s Punchbowl and Newport areas. The kitchen was well stocked for cooking our meals.

Dirty and stinky

The house was absolutely filthy and stank of sewage. We had to wash all the silverware, dishes and pans before we could use them because everything was covered in a greasy, sticky film. The beds are extremely uncomfortable and the sheets smell dank and musty. The upstairs toilet wobbles, there are cobwebs everywhere, half the blinds are broken, parts of the subfloor are exposed with nails sticking out, etc, etc. We started calling this house 'the gift that keeps on giving' because of how many issues we kept encountering. It was easy to check in and the location is great, but the house itself is a health hazard.

We really loved being able to walk right down to the beach. House was cozy with plenty of space for everyone to sleep. There’s not much space for seating in the living room but we spent most of our time outside anyways. Would come back again!

It’s all about the location

This location was the best part of this property. Deck views of beach, a trail close by to a waterfall and the softest, cleanest sand. You’re a short drive from Depot Bay or Newport as well. But the driveway is steep, which made very many trips to and from the beach very tiresome. The house and linens were clean, but there were some seasonal ants to deal with. We couldn’t find the broom to sweep up until we did a visual sweep of the property at checkout. Turns out it was outside and the dustpan as well but by a different door. The house has enough beds to accommodate two families but only one small couch. The bathrooms have decent water pressure. The outside lights were not working, but that made it easier to see the ocean at night. Not much has changed about this house since it was built in the 60’s, and it’s a quirky setup. But it has what you need and it’s peaceful, nice for the dogs as well. The deck is large and well kept, and the property is clean.

Wonderful Privacy

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The setting of the Cedar House is quite remarkable. It sits at the end of a private road/drive in a stand of large trees, and overlooks the beach. There is nothing fancy about the house (some might call it dated or old fashioned), but it provides a comfortable and very relaxing experience. The wood stove was easy to use and was very effective at warming the house on a damp chilly day ( the regular heating units also worked well if you don’t want to bother with starting a fire). There is a steep bit at the end of the path to the beach, but the ropes worked just fine (you might want to bring some gloves for this) and the effort is well worth it. The short (about four feet) climb down would be a challenge for someone with mobility issues, The beach, which you can see and hear from the house, was really enjoyable and not busy at all (during the week, we were often the only people there).We enjoyed our stay immensely and would definitely return for another visit.

Private location with fantastic access to the beach

The property is literally at the end of the road- finding it was not difficult with the instructions provided. The cabin itself is rustic, so if you are looking for a modern, up-to-date kitchen and amenities this may not be the place for you. We wanted privacy and access to the beach- and this place was perfect! There is a hike up/down the hill to and from the beach and the last section requires use of a hand-line to lower yourself to the beach. This was not an issue for us or the dog that was with us.

Classic Oregon Coast House

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This rustic cabin is such a classic coast experience - nothing fancy or updated,but you'll find everything you need. The beds are even pretty comfortable. The kitchen is well-stocked, but just know there is no dishwasher. The view is superb and it's just a short walk down to the beach. This is on a steep hill, so not appropriate for the elderly or anyone with mobility issues. We enjoyed the wood stove-just know that you'll need to bring your own wood (not enough provided). The back upstairs bedroom is a bit musty, but otherwise everything was comfortable. I agree with others that there's only one sofa in the living room so difficult for everyone to gather together without sitting in hard chairs. Check-in was super easy and the staff super helpful! We would stay here again.

Great view!

Rating Details: The property manager was adequately helpful. The vacation rental was somewhat dirty. I was very happy with the location. I was very dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We really enjoyed the location, but were not so happy with the accommodations. The kitchen is haphazardly thrown together and one of the drawers is broken, almost causing an accident. The main bedroom downstairs has urine stains and other dark ones. It’s doubtful anything has been updated. When opening the bed, there were several hairs of different colors.

Quirky house with a beautiful view

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: House is wonderfully located, with a very short walk down to the beach. The house itself is a little strange in its layout but cosy and comfortable. We enjoyed the fireplace and the view. Beds were comfortable and being able to hear the Pacific from the bedroom was an added plus.
