Peaceful, Relaxing and Beautiful views
We had a wonderful time and were able to totally relax. This home was one of the best equipped homes we have been in with all the amenities you could ask for and more. The home was spacious and the outdoor space was great. The outdoor shower with heated water was a great bonus after spending time at the beach. We can't wait to go bak again.

West Coast Family Vacation 2022
Our group included 2 adults, 1 senior, and 3 children (ages 10 and under). We loved our stay at the Sea Dreamer Cottage. The house was clean, comfortable, and very well stocked. The location was perfect with a quick path down to the ocean. We saw seals in the water and enjoyed looking at the beautiful rocks on the beach. There were very few people on the beach so it was peaceful. I would definitely recommend this property.

Paradise on the beach!
This was our 3rd stay in this house. It's quiet, extremely comfortable, well-stocked and located on a gorgeous almost private beach. Wish it was our permanent home! We enjoy campfires on the beach, going for long walks on both the beach and the redwoods, and driving north to Bandon to pick blueberries and see the Wild Animal Game Park

This property was exactly as it was described in the listing. It wasn’t very modern but had easy access to the beach, plenty of room for everyone, and they thought of every amenity you could need.

Great time had by all
Accessing the beach was easy and we took advantage. Beds were good, plenty of blankets etc. Bathroom and kitchen well stocked. Plenty of games, tv, faux fire.. all rounded out to a good time. Our only issue was the freezer leak into the refrigerator, we had to shuffle food and put a bowl in to catch it. That was no fun! We would recommend this place to others!

Cozy and great location
I live In Oregon and my family lives in CA. This was a perfect in between place for us to meet for a long weekend beach trip. The location was perfect and private and they make sure to provide lots of blankets and heaters which kept it nice and cozy. The first couple of nights on the fold out bed were rough but then we realized later that there was a mattress topper for it and then it was all good! It was hidden under another bed so just make sure to look for it if you’re going to sleep on that. There’s also TVs in every room which is nice! Would definitely stay here again!

Cozy Cottage on a Lovely Beach
The house was comfortable for our group of 4 adults and 4 kids. It's a nice location--close to Brookings for shopping, etc. We drove to the Redwoods one day. The beach is lovely for walking, sand play, tide-pooling to the south, and rock, shell, and driftwood combing.

Lovely escape
Family flew in from Pennsylvania for a few days. It was perfect timing to beat the 108 heat by escaping to the coast. Home was super clean, fully stocked and something for everyone. Games, outdoor toys, tv, fire pit. Absolute favorite was the outdoor shower. Super quick walk to the beach with a mass amount of stones to collect while we played with some sparklers as the sun went down. Communication was quick when we needed to speak to the property. Super happy with our stay and would highly recommend to anyone. Hope to be back someday! Thanks!
