A great older house in Seaside!

We had a great time staying at the Governor's House. This is an old house with tons of character (even comes with the "old house" smell, but we like houses with character, and it was perfect with us. Large bedrooms for everyone in our family, a huge living room space, a small but efficient kitchen, and a very large yard. One evening we had our extended family over (about 22 people in all) and there was space for everyone. We will definitely be staying here again the next time we visit Seaside!

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!

Great old home with fantastic yard.

Showed up with 10 folks 6 adults 4 kids. This grand old beauty was able to sleep us all just fine. The yard is gigantic and the kids played hide and seek all day long. Great location quick to the beach and Broadway. All sorts of usable items from kitchen and games to beach items. She showing some wear, this grand old dame, but for a vacation she was perfect.

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.

Grandma's House (and not in a good way)

This is a great location. However, the house has great bones but has not been updated. Windows are dirty, curtains are dusty. Bathrooms need to be updated. Too many dusty knick knacks and fake flowers throughout the house. No cable for the TV's. Cracked driveway, be careful not to trip. Steel, rusty fencing around the property makes the property look old. VRBO needs to maintain a minimum standards for rentals. I don't believe this house would meet their expectations if they reviewed it. And the black plastic bags filled with something and stored under the wooden staircase is a fire hazard. They need to be removed ASAP.

Close-in

Pros: Close to the beach, restaurants and shops! Living room, deck and backyard were spacious. Cons: Old dishwasher (although seemed to work), small closed off kitchen, not very clean (Vacasa team was great about getting this remedied, however who wants to deal with all of that when you have a 4pm check-in and are traveling with 9 people). Overall we had a good experience, enjoyed our time, and Vacasa was great.

A beach house with character.

I loved staying in this house. If you like slick and new, this may not be the house for you. But if you love an older house with real wood and an old fashioned vibe, this is the place for you. The kitchen is well appointed, the bedrooms are cozy, and the yard is beautiful. Plenty of room for a large family.

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.

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.

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.

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.

Terrific location and service

The proximity to the boardwalk and town was great. The house had everything we needed. The only hair dryer wasn't working on Day 1. I let them know and they brought us a new one that afternoon! Great experience.

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!
