Reviewer Comments: Thank you for an amazing week at Happily ever after.The home met all our needs and the decor is lovely. The bunk room did not cool off much but they brought us two fans. I would provide a note to clean the lint filter in the dryer. The location to the beach and shopping area was perfect. Thanks Again

    Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We always love staying in Seaside, and this trip was no exception. Being on the end of the Seaside beach made it seem a little quieter, which was welcome to us. The house comfortably slept our party of 8. The layout between the main house and tower worked well. We loved the location- close to the beach and an easy walk or bike ride in to the center of town. The porch was excellent for leaving sandy toys and wet suits. We had issues with the refrigerator, which was frustrating, but it didn’t ruin our stay. They sent maintenance out right away.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Loved the location. Beds were very comfy.Nice bathrooms. Great open living room. My only suggestion is that the blinds in the bedrooms were not great...I would bring paper black out shades if you don't want it lit up at 5 am. Other than that, we enjoyed our stay.

Bedding updates would be nice. Overall we enjoyed our stay.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Great stay with a beautiful house! No major issues to report. Was close to the beach and city and everything was as described. Only considerations would be to have wash cloths available in addition to towels, and more hooks near guest house/outdoor shower for clothes or swimsuits would be nice. Homeowners stopped by to use laundry machine which was unexpected but they were very friendly and nice to meet them. Able to shop and go to many restaurants nearby. I did confirm via email we would have have four parking passes total for both house and guesthouse but only had three upon arrival- had to call HOCO but they were able to resolve by letting us park in driveway or bringing fourth pass the next day. Maybe it could be clearly noted per reservation instead of in policy to make sure everyone is aware. Overall great stay and we will be back again.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The house was wonderful as always. It accommodated our family well.My one complaint was the fact that the second floor of the tower was not cooling well at all, and we ended up having to move our grandson downstairs. it was just entirely too hot for him to sleep for our entire stay.I called for service, but we saw no real improvement. It is a bit frustrating to pay quite a bit more for the tower for the additional space, then only able to use half of it. I would highly recommend that a window unit is installed in the second-floor window, or the AC is upgraded in the tower.

The only negative I heard from our group was some privacy issues in the back building.
