About this property

Located Across From Beach in Seaside, Wrap-Around Porches - Waterside!

2 kings, 1 twin bunk bed, 1 sleeper sofa

This three-bedroom, three-bath shaded retreat is located directly across from the beach and just one block to the Seaside town center. Located at the corner of East Ruskin Street and 30A, Waterside is directly across from the East Ruskin private residential beach access. You can sun all day and return home to the cool, shaded seclusion of this comfortable home. Waterside is surrounded by native live oaks to provide a cool and private respite from that wonderful summer sun and passers-by alike. Upon arrival, you will enter Waterside through its expansive large wrap-around screened-in front porch furnished with deck chairs and a dining table for 6.

The first floor consists of an open living, dining, and kitchen area, a bedroom with a King bed, a second bedroom with two twin beds, two baths, and every room opens onto a screened porch or deck via French doors. The spacious galley kitchen opens onto the screened porch, as well as the back deck, making it convenient for serving meals or just having morning coffee on the deck.

The second floor is entirely devoted to the king primary suite. If it were not for the draw of the beach, you might find yourself spending all your time in this extra large room with a natural plank cathedral ceiling and open rafters, a balcony to enjoy gulf breezes, and if you must bring the laptop, there is a work table. The primary bath has an oversized tub that is perfect for relaxing.

The back deck of Waterside accesses one of Seaside's quaint footpaths that will take you on the short walk to the town center.

Waterside has everything you need, including high-speed Internet access, for a memorable stay at the beach.

Great Stay - Great Place!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We had a fabulous time in Seaside, and our stay at Waterside played a huge role in that. The location, very near Central Square and the East Ruskin Pavilion was fantastic! This allowed us to enjoy the Airstream food trucks, Black Bear (fantastic breakfast pastries and sandwiches!) and the shopping in Seaside. The house was a perfect size for our party of four, and exactly what we expected based on its listing. The house was clean, with comfortable beds and furnishings, and a well stocked kitchen. The screened porch was so enjoyable; we ate all our meals on the porch, and spent tons of time outside there. I will definitely look forward to staying here again, and would highly recommend Waterside to anyone looking for a great place to stay when they visit Seaside!

This beach house is lovely and has everything you need to feel right at home! So many outdoor patio areas (including a huge screened in front porch facing 30A) , very large master bedroom, updated amenities and within walking distance to literally everything! We love all of it and have returned to the same property year after year..Highly recommend !!

Labor Day stay

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Positive overall. Can’t beat location. Some recommendations are a new mattress in downstairs king bedroom. It is broken down like an elephant has slept in it. Very nice porch but needs pressure washing. Downstairs shower hot water knob broken. Upstairs toilet seat broken. Great house that needs the above repairs.

Great location

The house was very homey and quaint. The location is wonderful! Close to beach, shops, and restaurants. Literally out your back door to Seaside town square. It gets a little loud with traffic but really didn’t bother us. The house needs some updating. One shower didn’t work downstairs, and kitchen needs oven mits. Beds are not the most comfortable. The location makes up for a lot of this. Great vacation overall!!

Teen Mecca

Best place to go after school lets out, plus you get the Memorial Day holiday so super crowded which is super fun. This house is in the best location for action, however it is still private with multiple patios downstairs, one facing the action and one facing the bakery (more private). There is no tub upstairs, instead a really big shower, which we appreciated. Water gets super hot and a/c worked great.

Great house - super convenient to beach

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was more than happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Perfect house location for convenience to the beach - and right next to Black Bear Bread - so easy! We stayed during fall break, so a little loud in the evenings due to the crowds of people walking to the city center.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We loved our time in Seaside. The master bath of this cottage had been recently updated, and it's not reflected in the photos online -- it's beautiful! The only thing we wished we would have known about was the closure of our beach access for a couple of days.

Great location but place could use a freshen up…

Needs new furniture ( sofas stained and worn in a bit) and definitely new beds. Our friends that we were hosting in the downstairs bedroom woke up with backaches saying they could feel the coils in the mattress. Also, we were not informed that the screen porch doors were missing, thereby allowing us to get attacked by flies when trying to sit out on the porch. Having a screen porch was a big factor in choosing this house!

Perfect location

By far the easiest vacation we’ve taken as a family. Beach right across the street, a little shopping & eating just steps away. Soooo easy & relaxing. House was very clean, communication was superb. The only downfall for us was the beds. We were hurting after a few nights sleeping on those beds but our stay was still enjoyable! There is a park at the back of the neighborhood to take your kid(s) to as well! Everything is in very close vicinity to make your trip easy & relaxing. Location is perfect!

Waterside- steps away from beach and food

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: we had 4 adults and 2 kids under 6. We loved the proximity to the beach access and to all of the dining options which are literally steps away. House is on corner of Ruskin and 30A. 30A is very active at night so we did hear cars and people. But it didn't bother us. If you need complete silence at night use a white noise app on your phone. The house isn't brand new, so if you want a high end gourmet kitchen, this isn't for you. But we did cook some meals and everything worked just fine. we were very comfortable and it was very clean. Kids had a great time. Everyone loved the views from the porch and the coffee shop behind the property.
