Log Cabin Above the Pacific is Perfect Romantic Retreat with Ocean Views!

Very charming and cozy, was the perfect getaway for my wife and me. Woodstove was an added touch for the stormy day.

I felt a few key details weren’t disclosed. First, parking for two cars was difficult with the driveway. We had to back out of a steep uphill, then downhill and gravel, as there was no way to turn a truck around. Our other vehicle was a car, we had to make 3 point turns without the truck being parked there to leave forward. Had we known we could have taken different vehicles, we did a lot of coming and going during our stay.Second there are a lot of personal and odd photo items throughout the home. And a lot of labels to not touch. We were freezing in the home we found many, many blankets that said to not touch. We also couldn’t use the fireplace due to the following and most irritating reason- there was no functioning microwave and a large shipping box that looked to be a new microwave placed in the living area in front of the fireplace. There was no information provided that we would not have a microwave for preparing food for this stay. I brought a lot of food for my family and ended up having to order or purchase different food locally. And the home is older and the area with the sleeper sofa appears to be an addition with wet/musty smells unfortunately. Mainly wiring this review to help any future guests with similar needs, and after contacting Meredith Lodging directly and receiving a cut/paste response with no resolve since I ‘didn’t contact them during our (busy) stay’ to wait around for someone to instal a microwave! Not impressed.

My friends and I loved the place. We had a great time.

The kitchen was well stocked and clean; the view is awesome; the double mattress could use replacing as could the pull out sofa. Brighter lightbulbs would also be helpful. Other than that it's a terrific place to stay.

This property was absolutely perfect for a restful getaway. Loved the location and scenery. It was clean and had all the amenities we needed. The floors are slippery so bring socks or slippers with grippers on the bottom. Would definitely recommend this property.

Partial views of the ocean waves was nice.

Lovely place to stay in a laid back beach community

We truly enjoyed our stay. Place was quiet, surrounded by trees, with an ocean view. It was close to a beautiful beach and some hiking trails. Cabin was well equipped with all essential.

We loved our stay at Neahkahnie Beach! The view from the porch/patio was beautiful and it was the perfect spot for our day trips around the area.

I have rented through VRBO for the past 20 years after moving to the PNW. I have always been pleased with the properties and conditions. I was excited to continue my positive experience, hosting visiting family from far away. Normally we receive detailed correspondence from VRBO regarding entry and preferred procedure of the home. Hours before leaving for the property, we had to call for such details. That's fine, things happen. Once we arrive, we notice the condition of the home right away. Floors are dirty, cobwebs around fixtures, pictures, corners, and window treatments. Again, I can understand if someone hasn't rented in a while. The big upsets, the dishes in the cabinets were dirty to touch and appearance. Not ok for the expense of the home for 2 nights. And I'm fully aware of all the charges involved in these rentals. The final disappointment was the internet that we desperately needed to complete our work obligations (why we chose the home that adversitised Wifi) to find it was also not in operation. We called VRBO and property management who did try to help, but after 3 phone calls and apologies the internet was never recovered. In my 20 years of rentals through VRBO, this is my first complaint against a property. This was a circumstance of many unfortunate events. I won't be renting this property again.

Overall this was a nice property to stay at! The location is unbeatable and the view is spectacular. It is worth it to note that there is no central AC - as someone from another state, I didn’t know this was somewhat normal especially in older homes. The decor in the property was somewhat odd, and we didn’t enjoy the small notes left in many places telling us what we can and cannot touch - it made the property feel less homey. Overall though, we enjoyed our stay
