A great place to stay with lots of room for all ages to spread out.

My sister and I stayed for a month this Spring and had a wonderful time. The place had everything anyone could possibly want or use. We had grandkids who visited for the weekend and loved the space upstairs that they could have all to themselves. Would definitely rent again.

Delightful details

We had a lovely time! We’ve stayed at many rentals over the years, but Alia and Jason have put a lot of thought into the details. From the first bundle of fire wood to the s’mores fixings, and beach wagon. Things that made us smile and made heading down to the beach that much easier. Can’t beat the location too!

Feels like home

My family stayed during the holidays. We were able to relax, walk to the beach and town, cook, play games, and let the baby nap with ease from this place. The floor plan was good for kids and the house was cozy and stylish. I’m hoping to return next year.

Gorgeous Home

The owners have lovingly remodeled this home and have literally thought of every possible amenity to make guests comfortable here. The house is an easy walk to beach or town and is around the corner from the coffee shop. We spent our holiday here and had an amazing time. Thank you for allowing our dog, who is an important member of our family, to come to such a beautiful property. Your house is stunning.

About the host

Hosted by Jason Hedges

We live just outside of Portland and Manzanita is our happy place! We love to travel the US and the world with our two boys. We bought our Manzanita home as a weekend getaway and remodeled it down to the studs to create a bright, modern retreat for our family and others to enjoy.

Why they chose this property

Having lived in central Amsterdam for several years, and absolutely loving the town of Manzanita, we searched for a home where we would be able to walk to everything in town as well as the beach. We also love modern, light-filled spaces and this home has incredible natural light thanks to it's south-facing setting.

What makes this property unique

Our home is a unique blend of light and airy while also feeling cozy and comfortable, with many spots to curl up and read a book or relax after a long walk on the beach. Due to it's large open kitchen, living and dining space it's also a fantastic place to host friends and family.
