Cozy Cottage on the Beach

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

"We were really happy with our stay at the serenity cottage. The house was very clean and ready with everything we needed (dishes, towels, toiletries, etc.) We absolutely loved that the beach was less than a minutes walk, as we brought along our two labs who we brought down there to play and swim all day. It was cozy and comfortable and we couldn't have hoped for a better place to call home for a week. We will definitely stay here again!"

Funky, dog friendly, beach place

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

"Enjoyed our two nights in Rockaway. The house is close to the beach just a short walk down the road but did not expect the house to be so close to 101 and the railroad tracks. House was older with an interesting layout, but we prefer this older style beach house to something modern. Dogs friendly was a huge plus. No Cable and WiFi TV didn't work that great kept buffering so we just watched the DVD's for entertainment. "

As per the description on our website, Serenity Cottage does not offer cable, but we are sad to hear that the Wi-Fi was spotty for you while on your stay.

Rustic... It felt like going home.

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

"Enjoyed the northern Oregon coast for three days. Serenity Cottage was an excellent home base. This quaint, rustic cottage sits less than one city block away from Rockaway Beach. We couldn't have been happier! The cottage was very clean and well stocked with needed utensils for cooking. Both my husband and I grew up in houses very similar in Oregon and Minnesota respectively. It felt like home. The only thing we would ask is that 3-to-2 electrical plug converters be on hand for use. "

Vacation getaway

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

" It was a lovely, quaint cottage that was very nice to stay in. It was nice and roomy. The area is quiet. Everything was set up correctly. And we would recommend it to anybody. Very assessable to the beach and a very nice small town. Other than the train going by on the weekend it was extremely quiet. There were a few things that need fixing there was no light in the fridge. The front porch light was burned out . One of the main ceiling bedroom lights were burned out. Just small little things that go out."

Calm before the storm.

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

"We rented this place as a last get away before our first child is born. The house was super cute and very well stocked. There were a couple things left behind from whoever set up our romance package (boxes and plastic bags). The beds were pretty uncomfortable as well. Overall, we got what we wanted from our stay and left happy. "

"Hello Ambyr, Thank you for your review and we're glad you had a pleasant stay. We will give this feedback to our housekeeping staff to remove all packaging supplies when putting out guest packages, in this case the romance package. We will check if beds have been a common problem with other guests and if so recommend that the owner invest in new mattresses. We're glad you otherwise had a great stay and thank you for your visit."

Cottage on the beach

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

"It had an older cottage feel. One main living space, with lots of games and tv for movies. The kitchen had what we needed. One master bedroom, one bonus room with a twin and a pullout trundle, and a double bed. Our 8th guest slept on the couch, however, do understand there was a pullout sofa available which we did not use. We were looking for a few extra bed linens and didn't find an exact match, but we found something that would work. The location was as expected. Easy walking distance to beach and to restaurants. We weren't too happy about the train tracks, but don't let that discourage you. They aren't a bother. We only saw a slow moving sightseeing tour travel through a few times. "

Cozy and Serene

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

"We enjoyed staying at Serenity Cottage. It did have everything we needed although I did bring my own frying pan and cookie sheet. The supplies were minimal (one roll of toilet paper and a small hotel-sized bar of soap for 4 people for 1 week definitely is not enough). Accessible to town - restaurants and shopping. Easy access to the beach. Throw rugs need to be washed. May want to warn guests not to do dishes while someone is in the shower."

"Hello Enid, Thank your for your review. We are happy to hear that you enjoyed your stay at Serenity Cottage. We will let a housekeeper know to bring back the throw rugs to be washed. We are sorry to hear that the starter pack of supplies was not enough for your family. The starter pack only includes supplies for a few days, so for longer stays, we always recommend guests bring their own supplies such as shampoo, conditioner and toilet paper. We hope that you'll be back soon for another stay with us! Thank you again for your review. "

There is no dishwasher so keep that in mind, and it's not right on the beach. Some of the floors could use refinishing-- but the price was right and the management very responsive to our needs!"
