I hate to let others know about the cozy and comfortable Secret Garden home because it might not be available the next time I’m ready to return. Loved everything about this home. Peaceful,, comfortable, beautifully decorated and just right for my adult daughters and me on our long weekend getaway.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Great house, with a few minor needs that probably are part of summer wear and tear. Rugs need a cleaning and walls can use some magic eraser and minor dry wall repair. The washer dryer unit works fine but seems to be unbalanced and really squeaky and wobbly when it’s running. Location is amazing!

It's actually been upgraded a little from the photos. We enjoyed our stay in Seaside. This cottage is in the perfect location. We enjoyed riding bikes everywhere or simply walking. The kitchen had everything we needed to cook dinner in the evenings. Even though the cottage is close to all things, it's very quiet and peaceful in the evenings.

Cute house. Great location!

Quaint carriage house suited our group of 6 just fine. Location central to the hub of Seaside - so close to the hub and beach that our teens never even used their rented bikes. Kitchen adequately appointed with all dishes and appliances.

Thank You Vrbo

Another excellent stay at a Vrbo property and we had the best time. The cute abode was immaculately clean and nicely appointed. We really enjoyed how close to the beach we were as it was within walking distance. All the nice shops and casual restaurants were close as well. Just a 2-5 minute walk away...The home itself was very quaint and perfect accomodations for 2+ travelers.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Secret Garden was beautifully decorated and had just what we needed for our family of four . So close to everything ! Only note is if you have young children , there is not a bathtub (the description and pictures accurately show this) and the sinks are too high for little ones to wash hands so a foldable step stool would be great . Would stay here again !

Secret Garden

We spent a lovely week in a beautifully decorated small cottage. The area described as a small den, which is the accommodation for the 5th and 6th guests, should include that it lacks a door for privacy and does not offer direct access to a bathroom. These shortcomings were an inconvenience and very much limited the usefulness of the den as a sleeping space.

Wonderful cottage!

This place was great for our family, 2 teens and 2 adults. It was conveniently located right on Smolian Circle which made it walking distance to the square, the beach, etc. Lots of visitors parking in and around us, but as long as we put our parking cone out, the parking attendants saved our spot. We never got the T.V. to work on any channel, other than the Cartoon Network, but this was fine by me : ) Nice break from television!! Linens were lovely, temp was perfect, small baths, but lovely tiled showers and more than adequate. I would rent there again in a heartbeat!
