  a guest from Winnemucca, NV recommends this vacation rental

  We were very happy with this house. Our family loves the location and the home, but two things were inconvenient: Both times we have stayed at one of your rentals, the garbage collection was inadequate. We rented a home for 10 people and had the trash full (after Wednesday dumping) by Friday. Bigger or more containers are needed.
  Also, we had to be extra careful in the dining area due to the white rug - why would you put a white rug in a rental home under the dining table? Other than that, we were extremely happy and would like to rent this home again in two years.

  We loved the house and location! I would only say that there are a copious amount of small signs throughout the house which made me feel like I was in 5th grade! Anybody who can afford to rent this home probably knows what to do!
  
  Overall an outstanding rental with an awesome view!

  • Manager Responded on 10/2/2012

    We apologize if the signs offend you, however, don't assume everyone knows the rules. Having enough money to pay for the home has nothing to do with common sense. We do appreciate how you took care of this home and hope you will return.

  this home is the perfect place for grandchildren. we have three 5 year olds and a 9. with the beach, firepit and fort out of driftwood just off the deck it was so relaxing for the adults to know they were safe at all times. A gas BBQ would of made it perfect.

  Larry G from Hemet, CA recommends this vacation rental

  We shared this rental with nine other adults and split the cost so it worked out very nice. The rental could use another bed as the sleeper sofa and futon which was broke did not work out very well. With temps in the 100's in southern califronia the weather was great. We have rented other houses in Walport in the pass but this is the nicest one to date. We will be back!

  a guest from Bellingham, WA does not recommend this vacation rental.

  PROS
  Awesome view with huge windows
  good size deck
  close to beach
  CONS
  Lots of rules
  not allowed to use slider for beach access
  not allowed to eat or drink in 2nd level of house
  very steep stairs up to 2nd level (small children beware)
  We have rented multiple homes from Bayshore. They are a great Company to work with. We just probably wouldn't rent this particular house again.

  • Manager Responded on 8/6/2012

    Sorry about the rules. The carpet is white and some guests are not very careful managing the stairs with pop or kool aid, spaghetti sauce (you get the picture). Also, there is a side door to access the beach from the garage. We would rather not have guests coming to and from the beach over the beautiful wood floors. This is a custom built home, the owners take great pride in their home and it is their personal residence when it is not being rented. Not all of our guests are as caring as some and we want to make sure that there is not damage to the home. We really do appreciate your continued business and hope you will try another one of our homes in the future.

  a guest from Brighton, Co recommends this vacation rental

  This is fifth vacation using Bayshore rentals, and the first time int his particular house. We have been extremely pleased with the homes and the professional staff. Any time we have used another company on the Oregon coast we have had disappointments. Only small negative is the decor of this particular house wasn't as good as the others. (i.e. older sofas)
  
  Great location. We saw whales, pelican and seals on the beach by the home!

  This house is perfect for a family with younger kids! The shower right off the back door and central vacuum system make sand control a snap. You can watch the kids playing in the sand while you relax on the couch or cook dinner. We have stayed here the last two summers and will be back!

  This was my family's third stay at this location and we are never disappointed. The house is extremely well designed for easy cleanup after trips to the beach and accommodates its advertized capacity with ease. My only quibble is with the decor, but my kids seem to like it.

  Melissa M from White City, OR recommends this vacation rental

  6 adults stayed for 3 nights and had an amazing time! We loved being able to walk straight off of the deck and onto the beach. The house was beautiful and very comfortable. We had read previous reviews and saw that some people had noticed a few kitchen items missing, so we brought them, however the management staff had already covered it! There was a griddle, good assortment of cookware, BBQ and everything we needed. It should be noted however that the BBQ is small and charcoal so you may have to buy some. Overall an amazing trip! We will definitely consider this house in the future.

  a guest from Tualatin, Oregon recommends this vacation rental

  A couple of notes for future travelers: The house is very nice, with lots of room for everyone. The view is great from both floors, and beach access is right out the back door.
  
  The garage is a joke - it is roughly 18' deep and can't accomodate any full size vehicle easily or at all - we had to snug our minivan in at an angle, against the front barrier (you'll see) so the garage door could close with less then an inch of clearance - ironically, the homeowner is a builder.
  
  Also, either the house needs to get, or you need to bring a decent sized frying pan - the house can sleep ten, the biggest frying pan feeds about two. Aside from these nuisances, it's a great place to stay.

  Our family LOVED this house! It was immaculate, huge, and very comfortable! Plenty of space for everyone! We enjoyed the property being right off the deck, it was perfect with little kids! The puzzles and ping pong table were fun for everyone! It would have been nice to have a gas BBQ, an electric griddle, a juice pitcher, and a TV downstairs. Otherwise, everything we needed was available. It would also be nice to have free access to the pool for the ammount the home costs per night. We truly loved our stay at this house and would love to visit again! We HIGHLY recommend this rental.

  Bill H from Clackamas, 97015 recommends this vacation rental

  The pictures of this home did not give it justice! We walked in to an absolutely beautiful home with the most amazing view ever. The house is built right on the sand! It was beyond our expectations. The only thing lacking was enough variety of glassware. We enjoy wine with our dinner, and on vacation mimosas with breakfast is a treat, but there were no champagne glasses, no cocktail glasses, and only 3 wine glasses. Management was accommodating, however, and gave us more glasses when we requested them. Also the house was very clean, but there was a cereal piece on the floor from the previous guest that apparently was missed in the vacuuming, but overall it was outstanding. We would definitely go back.

  John O from Portland, Oregon recommends this vacation rental

  I am native Oregonian who has always vacationed on the Northern Oregon Coast. I came across Bayshore renatals on a google search and found the Manatee House. The Manatee House will now become our preferred Oregon Coast destination for years to come as our kids grow up. I loved being "right on the beach", the kids loved building driftwood forts and the ping pong table. My wife loved the ocean view and the well equiped kitchen. Thank you, Thank you, Thank you.

  We enjoyed the house. The garage door didn't work very well, and there was a problem with the house phone. The sand was a nuisance (blew in the windows, and into the entry). Overall, it's a pretty nice place. A king sized bed would greatly improve the master suite. Also a TV downstairs would be nice.

  This was such a lovely home. It was perfect for our beach vacation. This beach house was so well thought out. Beautiful finishes throughout - it looked completedly re-modeled. But yet it was child friendly with the ping pong room, puzzles and games. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and plan on coming back the next time we are on the OR coast.
