About this property

Directly Across From the Beach in Seaside, & Renovated, S'more Guest Cottage

King, Twin Sleeper Sofa (sleeps 3)

Designed with efficiency in mind, the ‘S’more’ cottage offers much more than a typical one-bedroom, one-and-a-half-bath vacation home, boasting high ceilings and thoughtful attention to detail. Located just across the street from the sand and sea, this cottage serves as the guesthouse to the main ‘Never Enough’ cottage but stands out with its own unique charm on the eastern side of Seaside.

The two-story layout begins with a ground-level living and dining area, perfectly sized for a small group of guests seeking a cozy beach retreat. The kitchen features stainless steel appliances, ample storage, a stovetop, a compact dishwasher, and a compact refrigerator with a wine rack. This floor also includes a half-bath, a washer and dryer, and a comfortable twin-sized sleeper sofa. The clever use of space is enhanced by soaring ceilings, creating an open and airy feel that leads up to the second floor.

Upstairs, the spacious bedroom accommodates a king-sized bed and features a full bath with a shower and a separate vanity. Surrounded by windows, the bedroom also opens to a private balcony, inviting guests to enjoy the outdoors. Additionally, the cottage offers the convenience of an outdoor shower and the option to rent the adjacent three-bedroom ‘Never Enough’ cottage for extra space during your stay.

This charming cottage leaves a lasting impression on all who visit and has even been featured in Designing for Small Homes for its creative use of space and style.

Good stay
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 is our second time renting S'More- we liked it so much in 2023, we rented it again for 2024. I'd like to rent it for 2025, but I'm hesitant due to some issues this year. Overall it's a great cottage - you can't beat the location in terms of proximity to the beach and the center of Seaside. And the customer service provided by Homeowner's Collection is very responsive. The cottage is well-kitted out and clean, but it is starting to show signs of wear - the sofa is stained, there places where the paint could be touched up (especially in the main bathroom), and the mattress has gotten mushy. But most troubling was the refrigerator - it's just not reliable. The temperature rose precipitously to 62 degrees upon opening and stocking it. While the temperature did normalize to 37 degrees, it took more than 12 hours, during which time we had to buy a cooler and ice to keep some items from spoiling. After 24 hours, the temperature rose again and never fell below 54 degrees again. It also was incredibly noisy and sounded like it was struggling to run. We had issues with this refrigerator in 2023 as well, but not this badly. I think it needs to be replaced and a repairman who visited while we were there said it was not functioning properly.I'm torn sharing this negative feedback because we do like this cottage, we do like Homeowner's Collection and we enjoy the included bicycle rental ...

Weekend getaway stay at S'More
My wife and I enjoyed a long weekend getaway to Seaside and loved our stay at S'More. As soon as we walked in, my wife commented how cute and charming this cottage was. It was exactly as shown in the pictures. Clean and updated. Great location, just across 30A, and down the pavilion steps to the beach, or short walk to main Seaside area, and a short walk to a nice adult pool. Homeowners Collection the management company was excellent. Gave us all the info we needed, checked on our stay, and made our experience that much nicer.

Perfect getaway!!
My daughter and I stayed at S’mores just recently and it was absolute perfection. I came into this trip not knowing much about 30A but this was the BEST location!!! So close to absolutely everything. We were able to walk everywhere and the beach is right across the street. We will most definitely be back!!! ❤️❤️

Just right for two!
Booking through Homeowner’s Collection Vacation Rentals was easy, efficient and they were responsive to all inquiries. The cottage is small but functional. Perfect location to the main square and close to the beach! The pullout sofa is not usable (mattress in poor condition), but it didn’t impact our stay. Definitely recommend!

We love Seaside!
Overall the carriage house was charming, clean and in a great location. It could definitely use more hooks to hang towels, wash cloths, etc. on as bars were limited. They would even be helpful outside to hang our wet beach towels on. We definitely want to come back.

Reviewer Comments: overall this was a fantastic guest house. the kitchen was very handy, except light on cooking pots and pans (no lid for either frying pan). Also, as with all rentals, fewer pillows and more hooks (especially at the entry and in the shower) would be really helpful!

Perfect Beach Rental in an AMAZING Location!
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: S'more is not only adorably decorated, but extremely clean. You cannot get a better location. We unfortunately stayed during record cold temperatures, which took away from beach days, but getting out and riding bikes and then cozying up in S'more was absolutely perfect, for my daughter and I to celebrate her 17th birthday. We plan to return to S'more. My husband and I own rentals in Cabo, Mexico, so we are extremely picky on renting a vacation home. Homeowners Collection Rental Company was awesome! We highly recommend this property!

We were very happy with Homeowners Collection staff as they made sure everything was ok with the rental. The only drawback was the pull out sofa. It was so uncomfortable that we had to get an air mattress. But other than that I would recommend the cottage.
