Great little comfy cottage with everything you need. And in a great location!

Property: Beach Break

We take an annual beach trip each fall with another family. This was our first time staying at this house and we really enjoyed it. It was spacious enough for four adults and four kids. The house is decorated nicely with comfy beds and the bunk room was one of the best we've encountered. Nice and thoughtful touches throughout, including sharp kitchen knives and sand toys in the garage. I would suggest bringing your own spices and baking pans if you plan to do extensive cooking, like casseroles or muffins. It was a great house, quiet neighborhood and close to the beach.

The bath was really nice. Sam loved the ping pong table. The bunk beds and the tv❤️. The location, the deck. We really enjoyed and will be back.

Our family enjoyed a magical weekend at Sunset Shores, 35895 Sunset Dr in Pacific City. There was enough room for our large family to stretch out and relax; the teenagers loved the game room! Views from the bird's nest were spectacular. The beach is only a short walk away. Furnishings are decorations are top notch. We would love to stay in this home again.

Loved our week at the beach! This home had everything and was beautiful and clean! We will be back!

We had the true pleasure of spending a week at Casa Del Mar in Tierra Del Mar (Pacific City) Oregon. The house was perfect; cozy, comfortable pet friendly and location, location, location! The boat hull style of the homes was so unique. The house was clean, had all of the kitchen "stuff" we needed, nicely decorated by the owners, washer dryer and views, views, views. The only minor suggestion we had is to leave the garbage and recycling bins at the mouth of the driveway, where they are emptied early Monday mornings. We totally forgot (old dogs, new tricks) and it is only a few steps from where they are. In a nutshell, we LOVED it, will be back and will DEFINITELY use Open Nest again!

I just extended my stay as I am loving The Lookout. The whitewater views are through every front facing window, deck, hot tub, firepit, bedrooms and front door. Lovely smaller house and well appointed. Very clean. Super comfy bed upstairs. Warm in colder weather. Close enough to everything. Private for the most part. Will make this an annual event.

Property: The Lookout

Great location for a relaxing getaway. Views are unmatched. Kitchen has an array of pots pans and dishes. Clean. Spiral staircase is cute if not a little difficult for my elderly mother to maneuver. Perfect one bedroom down and one up.

Great home for a wonderful stay at the beach. Super clean, very well stocked and great location! We enjoyed your beautiful home! Hope to come back soon!

Property: Islander

Pros: The location is perfect, just a block from beach access. House size/appliances met our needs & we had access to the garage which was very helpful/appreciated! With the exceptions of the \"cons\" mentioned below, it was clean enough. CONS: No plastic plates/cups for kids & the table/chairs were far too high to reach safely for younger kids. There is no trash can in the bathroom & Mold growing on the ceiling. The doors/cabinets by the handles were filthy! Kitchen floor has serious issues-there are areas of water damage & soft spots on the floor. The bed in the main bedroom is VERY squeaky/loud! Any time a person rolls over the entire house knows-it\'s not conducive to a restful sleeping environment. Another thing that should be noted is the size of the driveway is short. We had to park our full size truck width ways as we would be in the road had we parked any other way.If you have a smaller/shorter vehicle this should not be an issue & 2 vehicles might fit. Bring trash bags/laundry/dishwashing soap if you have a family. There are a few provided but they want you to use these for cleaning upon your departure. LASTLY, the cust.svc w/OBV was subpar & very disappointing! We had called to inquire about the remote to the DVD player as there wasn\'t one. The listing stated a DVD player is provided however if your DVD needs a remote to use the menu function to play, you cannot play DVD\'s. We were told that someone would call us later that day, after 7 hours we called to follow up as we had not been contacted, only to be treated poorly w/a condescending attitude & then hung up on. So glad we didn\'t have a major issue that required assistance as we would most likely been SOL based off this experience. Overall, since we got a lower rate it was a nice place for what it was, however we would NOT spend any more for this place given the above mentioned issues & the experience we had w/OBV, that was very disappointing!

Property: Casa De Praia

5-star View and Furnishings: Waves, Sunset, Beach, Birds. Watching the water was just mesmerizing. Furniture to watch from very comfortable. Overall house appearance top notch with very well equipped kitchen, sparking clean house and attractive decorations. But my perception of Paradise doesn\'t have full garage cans, wrong wifi password, king bed with mountain ridges, slopes and narrow soft valleys, and a scary unmarked back step (from back door to back deck). Lucky we didn\'t experience falls.

Property: Paradise Found

My family and I shared the house with another family. It was the perfect size for our large group with ample space to spread out and close to everything we needed. Would definitely stay again.

Property: Santosha

3 couples stayed two nights. Bedrooms were very nice and each had it’s own bathroom. Access to beach was a ways away plus many steps to get down to the water. No view of the ocean but located in a beautiful neighborhood. City ordinance states 2 cars only in driveway with no on street parking. So additional parking would need to be found. I would recommend this house and would visit again.

very clean...no issues

Loved our stay and experience with Open Nest. The house was so nicely decorated, very comfortable, had everything we needed, amazing (and unique) views of Pacific City. Highly recommend this beautiful home and Open Nest who was so accommodating and responsive.

Property: Eagle Townhome

The place was amazing and very clean with a stunning view. Great amenities and good maintenance. Had a great time with my family and I would recommend it to other people.

Property: Nestucca Nest

Such a perfect house for a family reunion I deeply appreciate Open Nest and the customer care in deciding on the house that was best for me, talking it through and then making sure there were no fragrances used in house. It was a great place for the family. Much gratitude.

Property: Riverfront Dream

#208 was a nice location with a great view. But ....the couch had a sinkhole on the left side so only half of the couch was usable. The cook ware was very used and skimpy on quantity available (no cutting board?) The bedroom by front entrance had a \"short\" in the wiring in the ceiling lamp. OBV needs to look over the reviews on the rentals and take care of these issues.

Property: Waters Edge 208

Thought the place was spacious enough, but then started to notice some downfalls. The house was so hot and just couldn\'t get the AC to work properly, spiders and webs everywhere! Washer knob broken so you didn\'t know what cycle you\'d get, my bed creaked really loud, sticky floors upon arrival, and no BBQ on the deck. Also noticed neighbor to the right parked outside the rental when they could have parked in their own driveway. This place needs a good cleaning, and a spider crew to knock down inside AND outside webs, and a crew to cut back the wild blackberry bushes by the deck.

Property: Necanicum West

This house.....Absolutely PERFECT! Literally right on the beach and the location between other beach towns is fantastic. The house is older, if you\'re after updates and fancy, move along...THIS house is COZY, RUSTIC and CHARMING. Kitchen is a great size with everything you need. Fireplace works and added a nice touch... TV, WIFI and main house heating worked just fine....Little space heaters are provided to help warm the bedrooms but honestly didn\'t need them as our weather was perfect. It\'s been in a family for years and they cherish it....... LOOK NO FURTHER...Wake up and you\'re looking right at the ocean....go to sleep and you\'re hearing the ocean...what more could you ask for!!!

Property: Seaside Escape

My family (wife, myself, daughter of two) booked this house weeks out for a vacation and trip to the aquarium. Two days before our vacation the owner notified Oregon Beach Vacations that the house would be under construction and unavailable. The only other available houses were over double what we paid for this one, and a hotel room with a toddler isn’t a great substitute. Oregon Beach Vacations was great. Gave us our refund and were very apologetic. The owner has completely derailed our only vacation this year.

Property: Endeavour House

House is a condo. Not a house as marketed. Needs new carpet and cleaning. Several items broken. No door knob on bedroom. Beds not comfortable. Place could use some attention. Back area full of weeds. On the up side is close to beach and title lake area is nice.

Property: Waterside Family Fun

This home was very clean and comfortable. Pretty decor and linens and towels felt luxurious compared to other vacation homes we have stayed in. There were eight of us with 2 dogs and we never felt cramped. This is a very quiet area with great walking paths to the beach and an easy walk to restaurants and morning coffee. The only thing that would make it even better would be more lighting in the living room for reading in the evening.

Property: Curious Sea Cow

Very nice place. Perfect size. Very close to everything. Quiet. Will be back.

Wonderful little spot, tucked away within the trees, with easy access to the beach. The house was clean, fully stocked, and had the most comfortable beds. I will definitely be staying here again!

Property: Long Board Loft

We stayed for four nights and had a great time. Quiet neighborhood and a short walk to a beautiful beach. Plenty of space for the five of us and dinner guests.

Property: The Break

This house was amazing! Perfect location for relaxation! And the kids loved it!

Property: Sand Dollar Pacific City

Perfect location, comfortable, clean, and great access to the beach with just a short walk. Beds were comfy, house was well equipped, and the size was just right.

This house was amazing! Perfect location for relaxation! And the kids loved it!

Property: Sand Dollar Pacific City

We loved our stay! Be aware though that the house doesn't have AC. Otherwise, the house was perfect!

Property: Best Nest

This is the second time we have stayed here. The view is amazing and the location is great. There are a couple things that I feel are needed. Bring binoculars to watch the whales. The telescope provided does not help much. It would be nice if there was an iron. Also, a small table on the balcony would be helpful to set drinks and pates. Another chair by the window would also be great. May be a little pricey compared to other rentals close by but all in all a wonderful stay.

Property: Whale Crossing

I love this home! The house feels comfortable yet well built with beautiful woodwork, granite counter tops, cork flooring and space for everyone. The view is spectacular. Sitting on the deck and watching the eagles ridge the air currents above the Nestucca Bay Estuary and the sun set behind Haystack Rock were truly special moments. The cute little deer family playing in the woods the house were so cute! We will be back.

Will definitely be back to this home. Everything we needed, close to beach.

We had a great week at Pacific City in the Driftwood house. I was very satisfied with the house and how quickly maintenance came and repaired a few quirks ( a big thanks to Mitch! ) The house is very well equipped and our dogs were welcome too! Many hiking trails in the forest just to our east and an excellent beach the dogs loved and made many new doggie friends on their many hikes. We’re very satisfied and a big thanks to the Open Nest team.

Truly enjoyed our stay at the Long Board Loft. The property was clean and very well stocked. Also, the beds were very comfortable. I really liked the layout and location of the house. The only negative was the driveway is steep with a pretty tight turn to get into the garage. . Thank you to the owners for sharing their beautiful home!

I really enjoyed my stay at Pacifical as it was super clean and very welcoming. The space was very stylish and comfortable. The location was perfectly nestled on the beach and convenient to the surrounding town. The house had everything I could ever need. Perfect place for a getaway!
