40th Wedding Anniversary Retreat

Overall satisfaction: Property condition: Location: Cleanliness: Services from rental manager:

"My husband and I flew into Portland rented a convertible and took off exploring the great state of Oregon! After some days on the road we arrived at Serndipity. It was perfect! It had a million dollar view from our deck and hot tub. Then when we went inside the view continued thru the large windows. Toward the sea. We saw whales and magnificent waves. The bed was great, the shower was just right. The recliners were ok. The futon/couch was also ok. The kitchen cabinets were well equipped. It was a perfect get away!"

A very relaxing weekend!

"Loved the Location (walking distance to food and shops gets 5 stars!) and the view was breathtaking from both inside the house and on the deck... only 2 things kept this from being a 100% perfect weekend. The shower was very small. And the fridge kept drinks and food cool, but not cold. (fortunately we had our ice chest with us so not a problem for us)"

"Hello Cambria, Thank you for your review. We are glad to hear that you had a great stay at Serendipity. It sounds like this location and home were perfect for you and your family. We are sorry to hear about the fridge issues. We will have our maintenance check this out for you. It also might just be an issue of disuse. When a fridge hasn't been used for a while, it takes a few days for it to get to cold temperatures again because there wasn't anything in it. Than you for bringing this to our attention. We hope to have you stay with us again in the future."

"This vacation rental is perfect for two. The location was amazing, the views from the 3 picture windows were superb, perfect for whale watching. It was a short walk to shopping, restaurants, and the whale center. Many points of interest nearby. Very small shower and pet odor, pet hair needs to be better managed(we had no pet) but overall a great place."

Peaceful

Overall satisfaction: Property condition: Location: Cleanliness: Services from rental manager:

"We love this little house! Yes it is old but well maintained and walking distance to downtown. The view is wonderful! I was happy to see that a gallon of milk will fit in the smaller frig if you take out the bottom self. Just a heads....2 towels and wash clothes are provided for each occupant for stay which would be a total of 6 of each. If you are planning on staying longer... than you might want to bring some from home or arrange to have extra towels left for a small additional fee. I would have to agree with previous comments about the couch... uncomfortable. It is a good place for backpacks and shopping bags! We found the new chairs comfortable and it is nice that they swivel to face the ocean! Wish we were closer to enjoy this house more often!"

Romantic & Fun Getaway

Overall satisfaction:

"First off, this was our very first time renting a cabin out of state. And I must say, this experience has been absolutely amazing. I spoke to a rep on the phone when reserving the cabin, and she answered all of my questions and concerns. The cabin is much bigger inside that you might think, and very open and clean, with many windows looking out over the ocean. The hot tub was a nice addition. They built a couple walls around the hot tub for more privacy. We also brought our little dog with us, and the owners provided a bed for her! She very much enjoyed herself, starring out at the ocean in the mornings. And there's enough parking for 2 vehicles. Our F-150 fit just fine. So, overall it was a great experience for us. A much needed break away from our lives. We plan on renting this cabin in the future. Thank you again!"

" This rental was really gorgeous. My fiancé and I had a wonderful time watching the sunset and sitting in the hot tub. The location is walking distance to great places like the sea hag. Also all the amenities were perfect. The only issue if I had any issue was that we were not allowed to boil crab in the residence. I was very satisfied with my choice of rental."

awesome winter weekend

Overall satisfaction: Property condition: Location: Cleanliness: Services from rental manager:

"This little cabin is a great couples getaway or 3 person family escape. The cabin has not been updated recently, but it was clean and perfect for a quick weekend away. Also being Dog friendly was key for us and it has a little 3 person hot tub on the deck for us to sit and enjoy the ocean from the bluff. It was exactly what we wanted. We used it all 3 days and it was awesome!The bedroom has a queen size bed and it was in good shape. They advertise a small pull out couch for the 3rd person in the living room and I would say that isn't exactly what it was. The cushions pull out to make a bed yes, but it was as hard as the floor. We had to make a trip into Bi-mart and got a blowup mattress to get by with because my son could'nt sleep on the couch. Its also not a full size couch that you could just lay on and sleep. It more of a love seat size. The kitchen had everything we needed for cooking on a stovetop and provided a toaster oven for baking. There's no full oven. Its a half fridge and had plenty of room for a weekends worth of groceries. There is also no dishwasher so all dishes get washed by hand. They leave you everything you need for soaps. There was a small supply of salts and pepper in the cupboard for cooking, but plan on bringing what you need if you really want to cook. There is no outside grill for BBQ either. This cabin really is set up for two people and couples, If you have a child and are coming from the local area of PDX then bring a blowup mattress!! Hopefully they will read this and consider getting one for guests to use or replace the couch with something that works for a 3rd guest in the cabin. It really was the only downer in our weekend as we didn't sleep well the first night at all.This is not a posh upscale finished location, it is a rustic older beach cabin that will need updating someday soon, but it was perfect for a quick beach getaway and made a good home base with beautiful views of the bay a"
