Birthday Vacation
My grandchildren think the house is haunted. They were scared to sleep in their room. You can hear everyone walking. The house creaked. There was lots of room for our large family. The yard is very nice and fenced.

House was perfect for a group, the furniture is a bit dated, but it’s very adequately proportioned and appropriated. The layout is wonderful and the lawn and deck are great. The best part about this home is the location. It is close to everything you need to be at. We hope to book it again, Thank you!

Quiet get away
Large older house, that can accommodate ten people easily. Very clean and close to beach and shopping. This house would be great for large family’s with kids! Nice large patio and beautiful yard. Property had everything we needed. One shortcoming the gas stove was missing the fuel line so we didn’t get to grill.

House is a great location! Easy access to beach and promenade. Overall house has plenty of room and spacious yard for games. Really enjoyed the upper deck with ocean view. would recommend having a small table and umbrella up there. House is older so would recommend updated mattress in the upper two bedrooms. Would also recommend washer/dryer especially for those staying longer than a couple nights. Would definitely stay here again

Great Location, Space, & Price
Overall this is a great place to stay. It’s difficult to find a decent house so close to the beach with this kind of space. The yard and balcony are also big pluses. The House is definitely dated and a little rough around the edges. It’s also a shame that there’s no washer/dryer available. But overall we had a great experience and the house worked well for a family with small children.

Wonderful!
The house was very cozy and inviting. It's very spacious and with 4 teenage girls, all had their choice of rooms and they all had bathrooms. The only thing I could suggest is Roku, cable or satellite. TV's all had DVD players, however, only 1 worked. All and all the house was very well set up. Thank You for a fantastic Spring Break!

seaside stay
very spacey and lots of room to lounge. Unfortunately, the house is just too old. It's a great value for the space but certain areas were just falling apart (deck was about to tilt over from rot). No screens for circulation. was a bit too hot during the summer days. The surprise was that it had plenty of kitchen tools to cook for the family. If they invested in upgrade, could charge more and guest will pay more. Still I'd stay again for sure.

Governor's House Not Tightly Governed
The overall cleanliness of the house needs to improve. It wasn't gross by any means, but the floors were dirty, the green carpet on the stairs desperately needs to be replaced and the property needs to be fumigated for spiders. There were several in the house throughout the week. Perhaps some Home Defense around the foundations inside and out will help. Overall the house was fine. Pillows caused major neck and back issues for my wife and me. The beds were otherwise fine. The master bedroom shower needs to be looked at. We didn't get it to work until the morning we left. When you turn the water on and lift the plunger for the shower, even more water pressure gets sent through the bath spout and the shower head pressure is almost non-existent. For whatever reason when I turned it on Saturday morning, it worked, but I would have a plumber look at it. The kitchen needs pizza pans and a dough roller. Would be helpful for anyone who'd like to cook some pizzas or make some bread in the future. The location is great. Having spent many many summer weeks in Seaside, the location of your house is key. Being able to walk to the beach and to Broadway is a must-have and this house was perfectly situated for both.

Good location
Couldn’t use upper deck as railing is about to fall off, pretty scary and a disappointment as that is where the view of the ocean is for some of our party that have a hard time making it to the beach. Plumbing is loud, beds are less than comfortable (as previous reviewers have mentioned). Really needs access to a washer and dryer for a big family. I wouldn’t rent again due to that… Having said that, the house is a good size, great location to be close to town and the beach, big yard, plenty of kitchen supplies for a family of 10. Overall a good experience, and with a few repairs and updates it would be amazing place to stay!

Beautiful history
We loved the history and nostalgia of this house! We are a large group of 10 that attend rod run every year, but have recently started renting homes in Seaside rather than Long Beach. This house is fully stocked with everything you need, so we only packed clothes and food. Of course, cleaning such a large house is a likely a challenge and some windows don’t open (in the room we had) so my husband used a sound machine of the sea, despite being right next to the sea. Parking this many of us was a challenge as the garage was inaccessible despite the listing info. Beds are comfy, everything that really matters was good and we had a great time!

Don’t stay here unless a lot of remodeling is done
House is very old. Upstairs master bedroom linen smelled very musty. Windows don’t open and the few windows that do have no screens. Also master bedroom bathroom window has a sheer curtain that has direct access to house across the street. Had to hang a towel to block the view. Could not get into the garage because the keys don’t work. House needs a lot of remodeling. Toilet seats are chipped, ceilings need repair. It seems the owner did the bare minimum to rent out the house, For the price I paid, it was totally overpriced in my opinion. I was truly disappointed with the house. I would not recommend staying there. .

Lots of space & great location
We loved the antique feel of the home, of you're prepared for that then you will too. The location was great, just blocks from the beach, promenade & shops. Enjoyed having the space, cooking in the kitchen and being able to play games at the table. Beds were comfortable too.

Perfect for families!
Great location and spacious home with plenty of room for everyone! Our family of 5 (2 adults, 2 teens and a 9yr old) had a blast staying in this charming older home. Within walking distance to all the shops (less than 10mins), and just a couple blocks from the beach! We loved staying here and hope to come back next summer!

Wonderful Girl's Trip
This was a very nice place to stay. The house was large enough for our group of 7adults. The only concern was that bedroom windows in the downstairs bedroom were not able to keep open; one window would open but not stay up and the other window (street side), when I opened it the whole pane fell out towards me. I was able to put it back in and shut the window but there wasn't much as far as air flow in that room. Overall, a great location, close to town and the promenade. We had a wonderful time.
