May Getaway

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

"A 5 day getaway for three families (6 adults and 3 children). The house was perfect! Very open and roomy home with a few bedrooms upstairs and one downstairs. Very clean and well supplied for their guests. The back deck is great for entertaining, seating out behind the deck for amazing sunsets, hot tub on the back deck that was clean and functional. The best part for us was the direct access down to the beach! The only recommendation we would have is to add some stairs or do some work to the bottom as it seems a recent storm washed everything out making it difficult to step down near the bottom of the stairs. We made it work though! Overall a great stay, great home and definitely one we will be staying at again! Thanks Sheltering Pines! "

Sheltering Pines

Overall satisfaction:

"This is a very comfortable, clean, enjoyable home on great site. Nice deck, nice views, all around good place to have spent a thanksgiving holiday. Two complaints: the property is listed with capacity for 12, but that's a stretch, as there are 4 bedrooms, each with space for 2 people. A pullout single bed adds one more spot, and a inflatable bed could add an additional two spots, although it's not clear where that would fit. Better to label the property as comfortable for 8, and several more on the floor and using a rollaway. Minor second complaint: the house would benefit from a more complete selection of normal cleaning materials... a couple of bars of hand soap, more trashbags, a sponge in the kitchen. Thanks"

Spending time with old friends

"This is the first time I have ever rented a house and it was was a reuniting of old high school was post to be 6 of us but 2 had to cancel. We got this house because of the big dinning room table, Master bedroom on main floor(canceled guest was in wheel chair) and the view. We spent hours at the table playing cards, whale watching(saw 3 from table. Would recommend spotting scoop we only had binos)and we happened to be there when they opened Oregon crab season also. Got to watch the boats drop there pots. Awesome at night when they came close to shore how bright the lights were.Back to the house it meet every need we had. Great master bedroom down staires and 2 upstaires. There is also a bunk room with pullout bed for extra space. Plenty of space to sit. There is stairs down to the beach for walks.Like others have said the Hot Tub has strong chlorine smell to it but like we all said better to much then not enough.The one thing I think you should look to upgrade is a gas BBQ grill. There is gas in the house so a hard plumed in grill would have been nice. There is a homemade charcoal grill on the south side of the house.Overall this is the house we will rent again. Afraid to try anything else after this one."
