Wonderful Little Spot

by John Donaway

Wonderful little spot, tucked away within the trees, with easy access to the beach. The house was clean, fully stocked, and had the most comfortable beds. I will definitely be staying here again!

Great time!

We stayed for four nights and had a great time. Quiet neighborhood and a short walk to a beautiful beach. Plenty of space for the five of us and dinner guests.

Great for Whale watching

by Tom Holtam

This is the second time we have stayed here. The view is amazing and the location is great. There are a couple things that I feel are needed. Bring binoculars to watch the whales. The telescope provided does not help much. It would be nice if there was an iron. Also, a small table on the balcony would be helpful to set drinks and pates. Another chair by the window would also be great. May be a little pricey compared to other rentals close by but all in all a wonderful stay.

I love this home! The house feels comfortable yet well built with beautiful woodwork, granite counter tops, cork flooring and space for everyone. The view is spectacular. Sitting on the deck and watching the eagles ridge the air currents above the Nestucca Bay Estuary and the sun set behind Haystack Rock were truly special moments. The cute little deer family playing in the woods the house were so cute! We will be back.

Great Week!

by Kathy & Richard Spear

We had a great week at Pacific City in the Driftwood house. I was very satisfied with the house and how quickly maintenance came and repaired a few quirks ( a big thanks to Mitch! ) The house is very well equipped and our dogs were welcome too! Many hiking trails in the forest just to our east and an excellent beach the dogs loved and made many new doggie friends on their many hikes. We’re very satisfied and a big thanks to the Open Nest team.

Great Layout!

by Julia Cvitkovich

Truly enjoyed our stay at the Long Board Loft. The property was clean and very well stocked. Also, the beds were very comfortable. I really liked the layout and location of the house. The only negative was the driveway is steep with a pretty tight turn to get into the garage. . Thank you to the owners for sharing their beautiful home!

Perfect Place!

by Nicholas Pisano

I really enjoyed my stay at Pacifical as it was super clean and very welcoming. The space was very stylish and comfortable. The location was perfectly nestled on the beach and convenient to the surrounding town. The house had everything I could ever need. Perfect place for a getaway!

Perfect girls weekend!

by Janet Weber

I went with a couple of friends here for a girls weekend and we loved staying in this beach house! It was amazing to be right on the beach and be able to sit on the patio all day and watching the sunsets in the evening. The sunsets! The beds were some of the most comfortable I have ever slept in and the rooms were so well put together with beautiful furniture. The kitchen was fun to cook in with everything we needed. I will definitely be coming back.

Great place!

by Darcey Sudeyko

The Short Board studio was perfect for our two-night stay. We booked last minute and the reservation team was very easy to deal with. The place Is spotless and roomy; the bed is very comfortable and the kitchen is well- supplied. Our stay was a respite in the middle of a two week camping trip, so the addition of a full-sized washer and dryer was a huge bonus. The walk to town is short and the beaches and scenery are spectacular. I’d highly recommend staying here!

This house is Amazing!

by Lance Hammond

This house was Amazing. There was plenty of room for us and two other families and it never felt like we were crowded. I loved going up to the top lookout because the view from up there was beautiful. The kitchen had everything we needed to cook all our meals and even with having 14 people there the hot water never ran out. The beach was just a short walk from the house, which made it nice to go on an early morning walk to find seashells. The sunset on the beach was picture-perfect. I would highly recommend this place to anyone.

Sunset Shores

by Ellis

Stayed at "Sunset Shores" rental in Pacific City a couple weeks ago. We had not been there before, but it was totally worth it. Nearby Cape Kiwanda is a must. House was clean, it fit our large family well, the location was super cool right near a park, a stones throw from the beach, and food was never too far either. Would stay there again for sure.

Exceptional customer service

by Roselynn Bowman

My spouse and I drove 11.5 hours to spend a relaxing long weekend in Pacific City. When we arrived, there was an issue with our rental, and we needed to be moved to a new rental. Your staff was kind, understanding and considerate of our concern. We thank you for taking care of our needs as we were so far from home! We will be coming back, and I highly recommend your services. Thank you!

Great layout, clean space!

by Krystal Watson

I was very impressed with this house. The open layout is wonderful, and we really enjoyed the great water pressure. It was clean, and the mattress was super comfortable. Lots of sleeping options, and large rooms. The one and only draw back to this home is that it’s close to the main road. However, we could not hear road noise at all when inside. If you are a light sleeper it may be a consideration in the master bedroom only. Easy check out procedures and well stocked.

SHORE BEATS WORK IS THE PLACE TO STAYAmazing comfortable Relaxing

by Laurie Haugland

It was like walking into a new house all made up for me, just add groceries. It had everything I needed, from made beds to a full kitchen. The beach access is right around the corner. This house is located in a cute town with plenty of shops to stroll through and a nice restaurant down the street, “Mist”. It’s a 5 minute walk from SHORE BEATS WORK, check it out. Be sure to visit The Connie Hanson Garden (free)in the neighborhood. It’s very cute. We will be back to Oregon and SBW soon!!! ???

Wonderful, quiet peaceful rental!

by Haylee Lindenau

We had an amazing time at this rental property! The home had everything you could need and more for appliances, supplies, etc. Absolutely breathtaking views… the clubhouse next door was a huge perk as well! My 2 oldest boys spent most of their days playing mini golf and swimming at the clubhouse pool… We had an amazing time…. It was the restful, quiet reset my family has needed for a long time. I would definitely recommend to anyone we know.

Wonderful stay at the Curious Sea Cow

by Marilyn Shank

This home was very clean and comfortable. Pretty decor and linens and towels felt luxurious compared to other vacation homes we have stayed in. There were eight of us with 2 dogs and we never felt cramped. This is a very quiet area with great walking paths to the beach and an easy walk to restaurants and morning coffee. The only thing that would make it even better would be more lighting in the living room for reading in the evening.

Perfect!

by Paul Turner

Catoor was a perfect beach house for us. The location is great. We could keep an eye on the kids playing on the beach while in the house or on the rooftop deck. It was a easy 10 minute walk to the Pelican Pub. Can walk on the beach or take a paved path. The view is awesome!! Great sunsets from the deck. The house is well stocked. Lots of beach toys and beach chairs. We will be back soon.

Beautiful Beach Home

by Thomas Kell

Beautiful home right on the beach. Well stocked kitchen. Plenty of towels and cozy blankets. We loved sitting on the oceanside deck each evening. Owner provided wetsuits and boogie boards were a plus. Friendly beach community with a small town feel. The kids boogie and skim boarded each day. Welcome book provided great information on local activities and restaurants. We took advantage of surfing lessons with Moment Surf Co and a fantastic fishing trip with Haystack Fishing.

Annual Family Week

by Tracie Henninger

We thoroughly enjoyed our annual Family Week again in B-Haven. We've been coming to Shorepine Village for years and always try to get this particular condo - appreciated the upgraded seating in Great Room as well as shower doors (that replaced shower curtains). Our only issue was lack of saucepans - in an otherwise well-stocked kitchen. Open Nest rental employees were extremely helpful - thank you! We'll be back!

by Sherri

Breathtaking views, lots of space to spread out. Top of the line appliances, comfortable beds. Super clean, no concerns about baby on the floor. Bonus* for EV users. RV outlet on outside of garage made charging EV\'s speedy. Hot tub was nice but a long trek up and down stairs. New everything, many with stickers still. Fun place for a family

Beautiful view, very clean

by Sherri and Craig

Got placed at this house sight unseen as our previous rental wasn’t cleaned before arrival. We were so happy with the choice. Ample bedrooms and bathrooms for our family of 6. View is spectacular! All kitchen amenities were there for cooking on great appliances. So clean. Didn’t worry about baby on floor at all. Drive to beach is short but you will pay for parking in Pacific City. Hot tub was very nice. We didn’t use as the stairs are very long. Fire pit looked nice too. Beds were comfy. Only thing missing was a can opener. Would gladly stay again. It was like a 4 star hotel!

Check in several hours late

by Linda Thomas

Before we arrived, we received a voice mail stating our check in time would be pushed back 3 hours. Two more times it was delayed, but we were not notified by the management company. The poor housekeeper had to be the one to tell us, as she was rushing to finish. We finally got into the property 4.5 hours late. By then it was getting dark, and we still had to unload the car. We tried to reach the management company via text, and again by phone after leaving. They never returned our calls. I was finally able to reach them by calling the number on the website, not the number they had given us. I will never rent from this company again. The house was average, but there was still dog poop all over the back yard, and the cleaning was not all it should have been. We felt bad for the housekeeper, she should not have been put in this position.

Unbelievable

by Andrea Williams

A friend & I stayed at this beach house and it was more than amazing. It was an easy 90 min drive from PDX. The comfort level, the beauty, the space and view were more than we expected. We felt like we were staying in a 5star resort with the quality of linens, kitchen appliances, decor, and style. We walked out of the door and onto the sand. The upper and lower decks gave us beautiful views of the ocean and sunsets. Restaurants, shops, and a market were very close by, so leaving the gated/safe community to get what we needed was very simple. Plus, every morning we saw a dear and doe in the bushes. The owners and Open Nest have gone over and beyond to make staying at this beach home well worth it. We can’t wait to come back, stay here and do more hiking and relaxing.

My husband and I and our two dogs needed a quick getaway from the 100 plus temps! We couldn’t have asked for a better home. The house was immaculate - clean, well equipped, comfortable beds and nice linens. My husband had a short trip to his favorite surf break and I enjoyed the peaceful fenced in back yard with my fur babies. Thanks Open Nest for making our stay wonderful.

It was a nice house

by Chelsey New

First of all the location is a little further than we anticipated. Not really anyones fault. The washer handle is broke so you didn\'t know what wash cycle it was. The bed in one room is broke down in the middle so when you role you role into your partner. The cleaning crew needs to do a better job! I found toilet paper stuck to the wall by the light switch and toothpaste on the wall there also. Cob webs all over the house. Under the beds look like they haven\'t been cleaned in months. I dropped something and it went under the bed and there was junk under the bed. Would I rent this again maybe but I\'d rather be closer to the beach so probably not.

by Mom\'s Weekend

This is a beautiful condo in a great location. It\'s even nicer than in the pictures. Must have been updated since an earlier review because furnishings seemed new and everything was in perfect condition. Convertible couch was very nice and comfortable. So much better than a hide-a-bed. Nicely appointed kitchen had everything we needed. Easy walk to the beach and Mo\'s. This was great for our relaxing friend\'s getaway weekend.

Amazing Beachfront Home!!

by Farrar Mansfield

We loved this house! It was situated right on the beach with amazing views of Haystack Rock. The home was light and bright with comfortable modern furnishings. The kitchen was well-equipped, the beds were SO comfortable, and the laundry room was lovely. We appreciated all of the towels, the big bathtub, and the indoor and outdoor toys for the kids. We enjoyed all of the local activities: climbing the sand dunes, boogie boarding, exploring the tide pools, beach bonfires, fishing and crabbing, and even a camel ride. An adventurous and relaxing summer vacation!

Great location -Nice rental

by Pamela Evans- Bryant

We really enjoyed our stay at Best Nest. We had 6 adults, a child and infant. The house was very well stocked with kitchen gadgets, linens and supplies. The garage provides ample bikes, wagons, chairs, and sand castle toys. There were a few concerns we had but the management was receptive and where willing to correct any immediate concerns. I few suggestions for making future tenants stay better would be to take the rubber screw covers off the tv stand (our 12 month old kept trying to take them off and put them in his mouth)…& one extra mirror in the entry or bedroom would help! Great access to the beach!

Necanicum West Vacation Rental

by Anonymous

We will never rent this vacation rental again. We felt very unwelcomed in this neighborhood. The Neighbors on each side of house are home owners and do not like having a vacation rental there. The neighbor to the right has a sign on his house side window facing the vacation rental showing a gun that states \" I do not call the police\" He also parks his red truck in the parking by the rental house so no one can park there instead of his own double car garage driveway. There is a sign in the kitchen with house rules \" No noise what so ever\" We are a quiet family. This is not a place where you can gather and enjoy your vacation, or take children if they make noise. We have rented plenty vacation rentals at Seaside Oregon and have never felt uncomfortable because of location. The house is big and dusty. There is no bbq grill or table on back deck. The beach is a far walk from the house. If you plan on enjoying yourself, having a large group or visitors, this is not the place to stay at.

Spectacular Views

We chose this property because of the view, as we wanted something that was large and roomy yet secluded, but close to the many beaches close-by. As we are avid whale watchers, we want a large deck to view them as they swam by., we were not disappointed.

Nice view but…

by Sarah Kassik

I wanted to love this place but, it’s not great for the money. Some of the furnishings are in serious need of replacement. The mattresses are really uncomfortable, the chairs in the living room are near falling apart. The kitchen is stocked with necessary items to cook but the non stick coating is peeling off the pans. Nice view of the ocean and beach but zero beach vibe inside. Bare walls in the main living area. Wouldn’t take much effort from the home owners to make this a place people would return to year after year. As it is now, I would not return for the money they are asking.

Great house! Comfortable and nicely decorated with a fabulous kitchen that is well stocked! Having the option of the ocean and the river made for a great variety of things to do. From the back decks we saw horse riders and deer everyday which was so fun for the grandkids. And the lookout (widows walk) room was the perfect room for our oldest grandchild to sleep in and awesome views as well. This is a great place to stay with top notch service! Thank you Open Nest!

Great home, great quiet location

by Randi Eldredge

Loved the house, it was furnished so well! We rent a house every year and this one was furnished the best. It was clean & cozy. Very kid friendly. Quiet neighborhood centrally located. Very close to beach, nice little walk. I was a bit disappointed though upon our arrival at the condition of the back deck area. It was very very dirty with umbrella and parts on the ground and dirty table and chairs. I think the owners would also disapprove of the condition of it when we arrived.
