We used Rascals Oceanfront Retreat for our destination wedding and it was perfect!! We had hoped for beach, then deck, but settled to have the nuptials inside the house in front of the stained glass whale and it could not have turned out better!
Comments from previous guests about the décor in the home are somewhat valid, however, this is a personal choice and nothing was terrible. The deck and stairs to the beach are not the sturdiest, and though it appears they should be replaced or have some serious upkeep, they were open and we could walk around with no issues.
Things I hoped were already in the house:
I wished there had been a hair dryer in each bathroom, or at least one for the whole house as when you have a few people getting ready to go out, we ended up purchasing one and passing it around for use. Not a big issue, but would have rather saved the money.
A starter amount of coffee. Since we arrived to Oregon early, we had time to do some shopping, but having a little coffee to start the days is helpful.
Plastic wrap, aluminum foil, plastic bags, etc. Just a few more items in the kitchen would have been nice.
The home was very clean, and the kitchen had new appliances and that was great!!
The beds, bedding, pillows, etc were all very comfortable and plenty of lounging area to sit and visit with family and friends indoors and outside (if the winds die down).
We did not use the hot tub, but it appeared to be clean, but not terribly picturesque inside the garage.
Overall, we would totally recommend this if you are looking for a large comfy house right on the beach, with a great kitchen, easy access to the coast and towns, and plenty of time to enjoy yourself!
