This house accommodated our family of 17 (4 couples, 8 kids/teens, 1 newborn) for a week with great ease. The kitchen was beautifully equipped for large-group cooking with huge pots and pans, lots of dishes, and plenty of big serving bowls. The living room was bigger than it looks in the pictures. A truly massive sectional couch effortlessly seated 6 or more adults at a time, with space for kids in its corners. When that room got too full, there was always the x-box in the downstairs family room, a favorite space for teenagers in the group. Other activities for the week included pinochle, beach-combing, running, barbecuing, hot-tubbing, and even a trip to the outlet mall one rainy morning. We had a wonderful week at your home. Thanks so much for opening it to this ocean-loving Idaho clan.

Our family plans a long holiday weekend every year the week before Christmas. A chance for us all to spend time together, play games, cook and enjoy the sights. This year we chose a beach destination and loved it! We all agree that Drift Away exceeded our expectations...this house is over the top! The pictures don't do it justice...Drift Away is amazing!! The kitchen had everything we needed and there was plenty of room for more that one cook. The big sectional couch had plenty of seating for all and the massage chair was a bonus. The bedrooms and bathrooms are beautiful with awesome views of the ocean. We especially loved the decor, trim and lighting....this is a custom build. All areas of the house are perfect and little touches of lotions and hand soap throughout the house were appreciated. I can't say enough about this place, we will definatley stay here again. Thank you for shipping my husbands electric razor :)

A group of 13 stayed at this house at the end of summer. It was a beautiful house with plenty of room for everyone. It was kept very clean and had a lot of amenities. The only problem we had was the first night when we got there the hot tub was dirty. We called the next day and it was taken care of within the hour, Fast Response! Great service :) Hope to come back again in the future.

We were a group of 3 families including 7 kids under the age of 4. The place was perfect for us. Room for each family to have sleeping space and their own bathroom. Lovely kitchen. Short walk to the beach. Plenty of linens, towels etc. Master bedroom is huge. Our family of 4 stayed in there with no problem.

Our family stayed there last weekend and what a wonderful and lovely home, love the decorations, the house is super clean and layout of the house is excellent. We have 20 peolple stayed at the house and still feel spacious. The house is on a quiet street but yet very convenience, short walk to Starbucks, Safeway and Walgreens. Beach only a block away. We are defininitely going back next year.

The house was a perfect fit for our large family group. There was enough room for us to all gather together in the big living room, with the giant sofa and coveted massage chair... and yet space for us to spread out on all three floors when we wanted to do our own thing. Proximity to the beach and shops was perfect. I'm not sure any other home will be able to live up to this one for our family trip next year!

This home was absolutely perfect for my extended family visit. The pictures do not do this home justice. It is a beautiful house that was huge. The house was clean and very well maintained. I would love to stay here again!

My friends and I had an absolutely idyllic week at Drift Away. We had seen the pictures on the website, and I just have to say the pix--as pretty as they are--don't do this home justice. It is beautiful, restful, elegant, and really did feel like a home and not just a house. None of us wanted to leave--I had to nudge us all toward the door. We had a wonderful time. We especially appreciated how organized everything was--all the written instructions on how to operate stuff, the ease of finding what we needed, etc. The beds were wonderfully comfortable, everything was so nice and in working order, and the ocean views were incredible. If we end up in Lincoln City next year for our get together, this will be our first choice for places to stay. Thank you so very much for creating such a lovely haven--it was a week none of us will ever forget.

This house is much better than what you see in above pictures! We LOVED this house. Everything you might need is there, kitchen is full of utencils, enough space for everyone to gather. The best thing is the huge table for 14 people, (we could fit 16) most rental houses don't have this. Everything was wonderful and we'll keep this house in mind for future. THANK YOU for being soo flexible while processing our reservation. We recommend this house to everyone, you'll love it!

Our family beach trip was very enjoyable and relaxing in this spacious home. It is beautifully appointed and well equipped. Even though it is not directly on the beach, it has an ocean view and easy beach access just a short walk from the front door. I recommend this property for large family gatherings or group retreats. The owner was very responsive and helpful with inquiries.

Our "Girlfriends" Annual Beach Retreat from Grace Baptist Church recently stayed in this property on Sept 23-26th. We were extremely pleased with the house and loved every minute we were there. We found that the description and photos were accurate and the owners have always been the best to work with. This is our 2nd year staying at one of the owners beach houses and they have accommodated every one of our requests. I would definitely recommend this house to anyone. We absolutely loved it there. It was very comfortable and spacious, and we would like to go there again next year. Definitely a wonderful stay for the women of Grace Baptist Church. Thank you!

Our stay in "Drift-Away" was absolutely amazing. Each women who attended for the weekend left relaxed and ready to go back. We could go out on the deck and listen to the ocean. The hot tub was relaxing but what was a surprising highlight was the massage chair that we did not know was there. I would highly recommend this home as a getaway. You will enjoy every minute of your stay!!!

Beautifully decorated and furnished 3 story house for bigger groups like ours (16 people). Kitchen well stocked and big enough for cooking meals in but there was a lack of pantry space for food that we brought with us. There was more than enough room to spread out, plenty of beds to sleep in and lots of seating for meals or just lounging and relaxing. There were plenty of activities to do inside the house for kids as well as adults. It was very close to the beach, casino and shopping which made it convenient. Our family had great fun and are looking forward to returning again next year!!

Our entire family gathered at this beautiful home to spend our last time all together with our dying mother while she could still enjoy it. Not only is the house one of the most beautiful homes I've ever had the joy to visit, but the manager was so helpful to us and our needs that I have recommended this home to everyone I know. My husband and I discussed the house after the trip and how many of it's features would make a perfect home if we ever decided to build. It is very close to the beach, has the hot tub, grill, super kitchen, beautiful bathrooms and bedrooms....I could go on and on. When everyone was there (some of our large group of 28 stayed in RV's or drove in from elsewhere) we had 28 people and it never felt crowded. Thank you so much for such an AMAZING experience!

Thank you for the use of your beautiful home. We loved the sunshiny day, varying weather, the blowing foam on the beach, jump roping, and views of the surf. It was a great place to meet and play. The days passed quickly.
