Sunny Single-Level with Bridge and Bay Views in Bayshore, Beach and Pool Access!

Guest room (green bed and green nook) felt very outdated, cold and dirty. Carpet was stained all over. Carpet was also stained in the back mint room by the bed. I slept on the floor instead of in the green room. Spatula was full of grease, dishes were left in the dishwasher. Back door opens automatically from the inside when locked which was creepy. I had to make sure it was locked from the outside. Main room and kitchen and bathrooms felt clean though. I would make sure you post a pic of the guest room to be transparent and work on the carpet stains.

The house is in an amazing area with the bay in view. Cute little house, I'm not one who write negative reviews so dont take it that way. I just wanted to bring up some flaws, because first impressions goes along way. I'm not expecting the grand hotel or anything fancy but when you put in the hard working money you saved to enjoy vacation you expect to feel like your in a clean environment. Well lets get started the carpets in the livingroom, and bedrooms need some shampoo, the blinds are pretty much in need of cleaning or be replace(pretty dusty) and the missing one's with just brackets in the window frame.the sliding door curtain could use a fast wash too. We were having a game of naming the dust bunnys hanging of the ceiling. Bring hand soap none given if you wash your hands after a trip to the bathroom none available. Maybe I'm worng and I'm sorry but when you pay cleaning fees you expect a clean house.With alittle TLC and some up grades this place would be amazing. I want to thank Shell Haven for sharing your home with us we made good memories. That view is what we paid for, for sure..

Beautiful sunny location. Easy home to stay in

We enjoyed our stay. The view is lovely and the neighborhood is quiet.The house was very clean and plenty of hot water.The beds were comfortable, though the bedroom facing the bay needs black out curtains because on sunny mornings that room gets extra light reflecting from the water very early. Also, there is an outside door in that bedroom with a glass window and no covering ( and oddly locked without a way to open).The livingroom was comfortable and kitchen was adequate.

Overall, we enjoyed the time spent in this nice, although a bit outdated home in Waldport. Watch out for the elevation change between the garage floor and the driveway, that couple of inches is a bit hazardous if you aren't mindful of it. The small problems were quickly addressed by property management.

The House was right on the water of the back bay. Beautiful view

The house was in a great location, beautiful deck and fit pit but the interior is old and needs a complete re-do. The furniture is very old, The living chair was broken, the lamp shade had stains and the ceiling fan was full of black dust. It could be a nice place if they made some changes. The best part of the house was the location and views.

Overall it was nice, great location.

The property and house were perfect for us! Great location and easy to find. The house had all the amenities and we loved the location with a great view of water. The home had a lot of light and was easy to navigate on one floor. A great experience for all of us.

We stayed 3 nights at Shell Haven. We have stayed in this area for years and appreciate the view of the Alsea Bridge, especially at night. We enjoyed Alsea Bay during the day and liked to watch the small boats set and retrieve their crab pots, and we also briefly viewed an elusive seal and numerous waterfowl as they fished. The home was fine for our needs. It was close to our favorite hikes at Ona Beach and Cape Perpetua. Also, it was not too far to travel back to Newport to get the freshest (right off the boat) local seafood from Local Ocean. When cooking the seafood, we needed to open the kitchen window since the fan above the cooktop was no longer there. That would be my only concern, but you can work around it. I appreciated working with Meredith Lodging. Thank you and a thank you to the owners of Shell Haven for sharing their home with us. Susan E. from Gig Harbor, WA.
