We loved so many things about this house:
- The location was perfect—quiet neighborhood, walkable to downtown Cannon Beach, the beach had quick and easy access right across the street. The beach entrance opened to a cove area and it felt private. We had the whole beach to ourselves many times! Ugh, and it was just so dreamy in that PNW kind of way. So beautiful and peaceful.
- The kitchen was fully stocked, and we were able to make meals, grind fresh coffee, grill outside, etc. no problem.
- The beds were SO comfy. Slept great the whole trip. Our TODDLERS slept great the whole trip! THREE HOUR NAPS, PEOPLE. 🤯👏
- The couches in the living room were actually comfortable? Like??? I don’t know if I’ve ever loved sitting on a rental couch before haha, but they were so comfy! So comfortable, in fact, that I tried to figure out what brand they were for our own home, ha!
- The bathroom toiletries were high quality, clean ingredients, and smelled so good.
- Lots of extra towels, cozy blankets, etc. The laundry was fully stocked with detergent, stain remover, etc.
- Perfect setup for our fam—upstairs master suite went to my in-laws, and the downstairs suite went to me and my husband + two bedrooms for our two toddlers. The kids had their own bathroom + tub too—perfect for after-beach bath time.
- Aside from a towel with some makeup stains and one glass with smudges, the house, linens, etc. were all VERY clean. And I’m basically Monica Geller, so… yeah, impressive!
- THE VIEW 😍 The living room view was incredible. Those sunsets!!
Things that could be better:
- The beach toys provided were in rough shape, and several of the little shovels were broken. We improvised and didn’t let it hinder our fun.
- We really could have used an available broom/dustpan for all the sand we were tracking into the mud room, but we couldn’t find one.
- The washer/dryer didn’t work all that great… the dryer in particular took a couple runs to get our clothes fully dry.
All that to say: none of the negative aspects would keep us from renting this home again. We loved every second of our stay, and we can’t wait to return. Now, excuse me while I go scroll through the million photos of our trip *again* because it was just so dang wonderful. ✨
