First impression: wow, look at that sand dune. Can we get up the drive? Second: house is dark. Blinds were raised but the bedroom we were in was dark. It had French doors which led to an enclosed space that opened to the the house back. But that bedroom had no windows. Third impression. We could hear the surf and see the ocean, and smell it. That was great. The walk to the water over dunes was a worthwhile trudge, and over a quarter mile. Worth it. The kitchen was complete and everything in it worked. The beds were comfortable, terrific showers. Fourth item: a fan on the hot water (heat exchange) ran almost constantly and was loud. Fifth: big beautiful jetted bath. Glorious soak. BUT, the jets didn't work. The button was damaged so it would turn on. Six: holy cow, look at that sand dune. Will we be able to get up and down the drive?
But decent location. Short drive to Alsea Bay Bridge and over into Waldport. We often went south to Yachats to eat. That was an easy eight mile drive.
Overall, an enjoyable and satisfying vacation stay, with little elements of disappointment.
