This house was great. We enjoyed the ocean views and breeze.

Downstairs there is a kitchen/dining room, family room, bathroom and shower and a room with 2 beds and a tv in it. Upstairs there is a bedroom, bathroom/shower, and laundry room.

I always review the beds and would say that these are comfortable. The king bed upstairs was great for my husband. I am a side sleeper and it was not comfy. But this is how I usually find vacation home beds so I always come prepared with an egg crate foam! This made the bed good. The house has 2 foam pads for kids to use on the floor, so you could always add that to the bed if necessary.

We loved how close to the beach this home was. We found ourselves playing in the sand at every possible moment.

This home had everything you could possibly need. The kitchen had soaps, paper towels, a sponge to do the dishes, even a cupboard full of spices, oil, flour, etc. The laundry room was well stocked with some very nice smelling soap. The bathrooms all had hand soap, but be sure to bring your body wash and shampoo and conditioner. There were even candles for when we briefly lost power for a few hours during an extremely bad storm. The garage is filled with sand toys, deck chairs, a barbecue and all the necessary items you might need for outside at the beach.

This home does have a few quirks. The floor upstairs is squeaky and as you move around you can hear it downstairs. Also, there is a lack of privacy upstairs that can be a problem or not depending on who you are vacationing with. As you go up the stairs you will notice that there is no bedroom door. And at the top of the stairs are mirrored closet doors that allow you to see into the master bedroom. At first I thought this would be a big problem since we had all of our kids and the house is on the smaller side, but we made it work. As you can see, i rated the house 5 stars despite this and carpet in the bathroom :). so yes, a few not so great things, but the view and the rest of the house more than made up for it.

There are a lot of great things to do in this area. With older and younger children we find that we have to mix it up a bit. We spent many hours building sand forts and digging holes at our beach at Tierra Del Mar and we also went over to Pacific City and climbed Cape Kiwanda, Drove over to Oceanside and Cape Meares and found some great agates! Visited the Tillamook Cheese Factory for samples and ice cream, and had a wonderful time!
