Overall it was pretty good, did have a strong musty smell we had to leave windows open, a few things could be changed or updated but for the most part good.. wasp nest under covered patio by a pole up high. Coffee pot leaks… great location. Had a fun weekend.

Serenity Now!!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was clean. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: First things first, the location is amazing. The beach is close and Rockaway is adorable and walkable.Two things worth mentioning: there is no dishwasher at this property, which means you are trusting previous guests to have washed the dishes. If you visit now, you'll find lots of clean dishes because we washed so many of them. Almost everything I pulled out was visibly dirty, which is always gross but especially during covid times. In general the house was cleaned like I clean my own home, and not like I'd expect a rental to be cleaned. Accumulated sand, unwashed throw pillows, etc.The second thing is that the kids' bedroom is a garage and it was freezing cold in there our entire 5 day stay despite having the cadet heater cranked the entire time. That said, there's all sorts of games to play and movies to watch and beach gear available. It's super homey and comfortably furnished and felt like a family beach house. I would visit again with the right company.

Lovely stay

We stayed here for a long weekend. The house was very cute, had everything we needed and wonderful beach access and was also close to shops in ton. The size was perfect for me, my sister and our daughters. The beach supplies had everything we needed. We also brought our two small dogs and it felt like plenty of room. My only complaint is the bed in the adult room was really uncomfortable like so much so that it made my hips ache every night (I'm only 38). I think once they invest in more comfortable mattresses it is pretty much the perfect getaway.

Lovely, peaceful setting and home

It started a little "rocky" because we were told we had to check in late (at 6:00 PM instead of 4:00), however we were given a $50.00 credit to compensate for the inconvenience. This home was comfortable, and quiet, just as we had hoped. It is a few blocks from the beach on a hill in a natural setting with large trees, ferns and foxglove blooming. The one bedroom and full bath downstairs and two bedrooms with full bath upstairs worked perfectly for us, our son and daughter-in-law and five year old granddaughter.

Short ocean break

Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. 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: The location of the house was perfect. The house is a little bit rundown, but overall the beds were comfy and it had everything we needed. Unfortunately many of the cafes and businesses in town ended up being closed, but being steps from the gorgeous beach made up for that.

Wonderful home and glad we could bring the dog

Nice beds, cute decoration, nice supply in the kitchen for cooking. Short walk to the beach, quite at night, love the train when it went by.

Cottage disgusting -

Rating Details: The vacation rental was very dirty. I was somewhat unhappy with the location. I was very dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The picture is not accurate in any way. Without going into get detail, back bedroom] smelled like mold even though we tried to air it out; closed it off and guest slept on couch. Cottage was not clened prior to our arrival, although they boast of going through intense COVID cleaning, sticky floors, left over socks and miscellaneous on the floors, multiple lightbulbs burned out, one adapter in kitchen, so had to continually unplug coffee pot for toaster, or toaster for microwave, etc., deck so dirty did not sit outside once. Furniture and pillows on deck dirty, table on deck dirty, Rusted out large table randomly on grass - no chairs. The place was basically a roof over our head. Very expensive roof, I might add. I was able to speak with the company that lists this house and they were helpful in terms of a small refund; I would rather have had a nice place to enjoy, but all other rentals were booked.

June 2021 2 night stay

Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was very dirty. I was more than happy with the location. I was very dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This is a tough one as we would really like to be more generous BUT to be fair the overall cleanliness of the property, from the cigarette butt sitting in the basket of shells, the two used Q tips in the front bedroom on the window sill, the counter tops that had not been wiped down and a shower tub that, give or take, takes an hour to drain, made this less than great. On the other hand, you are a short block away from a beautiful beach and perhaps that's enough. The restaurant choices are sadly limited, impacted by COVID. Hopefully as things continue to open up this will change. Overall, if you're looking for 'clean' this may not be your first choice, however, location, location, location ...

Perfect Location

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: I had never heard of this town before we stayed. I love how close it is to everything yet far enough away it feels more private and not as crazy as some of the other beaches. The house was so close to the beach and bigger than i expected. I loved the little extras they included like laundry detergent pods, dish soap, and coffee so I didn’t have to spend extra to have to waste.

Great Little House!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: It was super quiet and close to the beach- just what we needed for a quick getaway. No dishwasher- no big deal, but would have been nice to have a dish rag or sponge to do dishes and some type of cleaning product available to wipe things down after cooking- but overall it was a great stay!

Comfortable, Quiet, great Beach access

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: Our family of three plus two elderly beagles loved Serenity Cottage. The beds were comfortable, there were plenty of kitchen items available for cooking, and while the home is right along Hwy 101, little to no road noise. The RR tracks in the pictures appear to be an unused line, or perhaps summer only for tourist rides, as no trains went through in 4 days so don't let that deter you. The beach access is easy from 1/2 block in either direction through dunes to gorgeous Rockaway Beach. Really cute beach vibe decorations, spotlessly clean. The only issue was that the gas fireplace was out of order and we were not notified in advance. It wasn't a big issue as the home heating kept us warm and toasty. The WiFi supported laptop use in the main living areas, too. There are little shops and good restaurants within easy walking in town for takeout service.
