Overall this property was great and well appointed. There were only two minor things. First is the pillows on the bed were extremely flat and uncomfortable. and the second thing was not having any coffee on the property. I feel like it would be nice to have enough to get you through the first morning. The hot tub was clean and worked properly. This was a great location and house and I'd highly recommend booking.

We had the best time at the Weather Gauge - the view and the beach itself is incredible. Perfect location to walk to dinner, drive up for a day in Seaside or Cannon Beach, do some quick easy hikes, and play on the beach. Would definitely stay here again!

We enjoyed having a fenced yard and a short walk to the beach. The neighbors were hosting a wedding so it very much felt like we were sharing a backyard. There is not much privacy, but luckily the neighbors were kind and respectful. Very walkable area and overall enjoyed our stay in this unit.
