Ok so I always say this to start, we always come to Rockaway and I read every review and write one for every place we rent. This was probably one of my faves so far out of maybe 8 we’ve stayed in. Let me start with the very minimal negatives. Close to the highway so you can hear the traffic which did not bother us until about 7 am when we were waking up, plus we had the windows open. Close them and u can’t hear it. The train goes by a few times a day, no big deal unless someone’s is napping mid day, it might wake them. Otherwise we enjoyed hearing it. Ok so on to the good stuff…right across the front yard is beach access. No rocks to climb, Maybe 50 feet across the grass and then another 30? Down a sand path and you’re on the beach. The house does share a front yard (the other house is further back) and a driveway, google maps will take you around front, you have to go back to go up the driveway. The beds were so comfortable, clean, smelled fresh and lovely. Vacasa has always given us a great clean environment. We had two 11 year olds who had the entire downstairs space to themselves, like their own apartment. They loved it. The upstairs has three couches as pictured, plenty of room for everyone. Kitchen has everything, silverware, pizza cutter, cookie sheets, coffee pot, steamers, pot holders, u name it. A few basic supplies like salt, pepper. There is a charcoal bbq on the porch, but we brought our own so can’t comment on it except that it was there. The sliding doors upstairs, there’s two that open out so u have a great big open air space were fabulous. Also this home provides shampoo and conditioner in bottles that hang on the shower walls, so enough for everyone. The balcony upstairs has a sign that only 10 people max can be on it, so keep that in mind. It might be a little pricey to rent, but u get what u pay for, and I would stay here again any time. You can see the ocean from that upstairs balcony, hear the waves crashing. A deer came through the yard, and a bat flew in those open sliders late one night which was very exciting but he let himself out the same way he came in. We loved the whole trip.
