When we arrived, we were so happy to see that VRBO/Ocean Odyssey Vacation Rentals had cleaned and prepared this house for us during the pandemic. Every surface was spotless and we could tell that extra care had been taken to ensure our safety.
This house is very tastefully decorated and well laid out for a small group, such as 4-5 adults and/or a child or 2. Nice artwork on the walls and some books to look through. The kitchen is very well stocked with plenty of dishes, pots, pans, utensils and salt/pepper. The beds were comfortable however it's worth noting that the pillows need updating. One flat as a pancake pillow per person is provided and we definitely were happy that we had brought our own from home. We had plenty of nice towels in the bathrooms and this rental does have all paper products.
We were so happy that we could bring our dog, there is a pet fee but it's reasonable. There is mention of a dog run but you have to go through the garage to the back and there is a very small, weedy, fenced space to let a little dog out. We were not comfortable letting our shepherd out there at all.
The only outside area for guests is the deck. The deck is smaller but has a large round table and 4-5 plastic chairs, so pleasant enough to sit outside as a group. There appeared to be an old gas barbecue in the garage but we didn't bother with it.
The house is in Yachats, perched up on a hill and so the best way to access the town and beach is by car, a 2-3 minute ride. The neighborhood has lots of nice neighbors and a friendly feel. Yachats is an adorable, progressive thinking town with cute shops, cafes and bars. On Sundays there is a seasonal farmers market with crafts, produce and local meats and cheeses.
Overall, a lovely place to stay and we would easily book this house again in the future.
