About this property

Kids welcome Pac-Man Arcade! 1 blk to beach. King bed, Pack 'n Play, Fenced yard

Here's what you get at Karr Beach House on Franklin...a comfortable beach cottage designed to feel "beachy" and provide you with everything you need to relax and enjoy as soon as you step through the door. Our house was built in 1926 and we've managed to retain much of it's charm and character without sacrificing our guests convenience and comfort. I'm the owner, Darren, and I'm here to provide you the absolute best service. Call, text, or email...I get them all and respond FAST!

Relax by the wood burning fireplace, walk to downtown (10 min) along the ocean shore on the promenade, play in the water, barbecue your favorite meal, have a bonfire on the beach (1 block away)...It’s all ready and waiting for you!

Our house is dog friendly (fenced yard), and so is the beach! The entire beach is an off-leash dog paradise (owners are VERY responsible and attentive to their dogs). It's a great opportunity for your dog to run around, and make some new friends. REMINDER: We won't charge you a pet fee!

NOTE: Our house will sleep 8 people, but it's pretty tight for 8 adults, especially when there are multiple women. The bunk beds are more suitable for teenagers or small adults. The one bathroom is the main issue for a large group with multiple women. We frequently have 8 guests and it works out just fine for them. Please consider these points before booking this house. If you determine it'll work for your group, book away!!

Our house includes:

King bed, Queen (Casper mattress!) bed, bunk beds (2 beds total), a pull out couch, and a pack n play crib.

1 gas BBQ, 1 charcoal BBQ
Beach chairs, beach toys, buckets, shovel, etc.
High Speed WiFi Internet
4K HD TV
GoogleTV/Chromecast
Wood burning fireplace and gas fireplace

This little cottage was perfect for our brief stay in Seaside. It was just a short walk to the beach, and the interior was cozy and comfortable for the three of us (2 adults and teen-aged daughter). Nice decorations added to the beach-side atmosphere - we enjoyed the vintage ambience.

Thanksgiving trip

We had an amazing time at this property and we’re so thankful for the owner being so quick to respond to all of my many questions. The house was a bit cold as we couldn’t get the fireplace to stay on but it really wasn’t much of an issue.

Family reunion fun!

We had a wonderful stay for our family of 7. The property had everything we needed. Comfortable house and quiet neighborhood. It is not a modern home, but a fun beach house that is comfortable, welcoming, and decorated with love.

Great place for a family

What a great place! It was just as listed and had everything we needed and more (lots of fun beach items in the garage). Really appreciated all the extra blankets and towels as well. Loved the bunk beds and Pac-Man game for my kids. It’s also an easy, quick walk to the beach.

Everything we needed

Cozy and comfortable. Listing was very accurate/honest about limitations (one small bathroom, small bunk room for kids). Property manager was extremely responsive when we had an issue with dishwasher. Broken travel crib was replaced immediately. Loved walking to beach and to town on the promenade!

My family spent Christmas day gathering here to play games and catch up, and had a lovely time. The gas fireplace made us cozy and warm even though it was raining outside. It is just a short walk to the prom and beach, too.

Little peace of paradise

LOVED this home. Quiet neighborhood in walking distance to the main strip and the best beache we have been to in Seaside in 51 years. We FINALLY found sand dollars! Loved that the owner had lots of extra towels and comfy blankets available. A lot of love has gone into this place and we can't wait to stay again!

Weekend, getaway, and birthday celebration

It was excellent! Sweet home with all the amenities you would need for a great time and catch up with grand kiddos. They live in Portland so we’re able to come and enjoy the beach and some long overdue laughs with those little kiddos. Had a wonderful sunset supper on the deck at Maggie‘s restaurant to make the weekend. Perfect with Scott and I. We definitely will be back.

Great little house, it was everything they promised!

The house comfortably sleeps 6 and has a very neat set up. Only complaint was that the gridle was missing its power cord and we could not find it! Luckily there was a Pig n' Pancake nearby. Beach is very nice near the house and not too busy with people. Overall, a fun and nice place to stay!

About the host

Hosted by Darren Karr

Host profile image
We grew up and lived in the Portland area and enjoyed Seaside for most of our lives. Recently, we moved to Phoenix AZ! We hope our house has everything you want and need. If not, please let us know!

Why they chose this property

We love Seaside. It's only 1.5 hours away from the Portland area and is the quintessential beach town. Seaside offers everything we looked for in a beach town. Downtown Seaside is about 11 blocks away from the house and is less than a 15 minute walk.

What makes this property unique

Our house is our second home. We set it up so we could visit at any time and not have to worry about bringing a bunch of things with us. We want this to be the same for our renters. We want our guests to feel at home at our house and we make it as easy as possible to do that. We also have an easy entrance system in place so there's no need to stop by and pick up a key. We also make it easier on our guests by not asking them to clean when they leave. We want your stay to be as relaxing and trouble-free as possible.
