The dirtiest rental I've ever been in.
While checking in here was easy and I appreciated the reminders about the check-in time and how to get in, that was the only good thing about this experience. I wish I could attach photos, because I am still in shock about how disgusting this rental was/is. There were clumps of dust on the ceiling fan, as well as other indications this place is WELL OVERDUE for a deep clean. Everything was dingy, the fridge was leaking, whoever has been cleaning it has either been sweeping dirt under the beds (as we found dust/dirt piled up along with a sock (!) and an empty soda bottle under ours. It was so disgusting I asked to be moved to another rental (which I took the time to find on the site) but instead they just refunded me the cleaning/Vacasa fees. It was so gross, while we had initially planned to cook some meals there we ended up eating out for every meal. I would have turned around and driven home except that my parents were on this trip with me and we had coast plans for the days we were there. I realize VRBO/Vacasa probably had no idea how gross this place was, but they did little to help other than a refund of their fees, which is better than nothing, but that still meant paying much more than this place was worth. I would have rather stayed in a hotel after seeing how terrible this place was. Aside from the dirty-ness of the rental, it was in a location that faces the highway, and while the beach is walkable, there is no good outdoor space. The shared space is a couple picnic tables that are located outside some of the other units, so they really don't seem like they're for anyone. The rental itself (other than how incredibly dirty it was) was just old and out of shape. The bathroom light wouldn't turn off, the fan turned off maybe on a timer but there was no control, there were zip ties as curtain holders, the bathroom shower was gross, and it was much smaller than the photos make it appear-you wouldn't be able to sit four people at the dining table without rearranging furniture (which was fine because it was so dirty and gross we didn't eat there anyway). I'm probably forgetting to mention things (like that there was old food crusted in the burner wells of the oven-that were lined in aluminum foil so it honestly would have been an easy thing for them to clean!) but just don't rent this place. This rental was over $600 for the time I stayed there, and I wouldn't have even paid $200 for how gross I felt the entire time we were there.

Amazing place to stay
We all loved staying at this place and will stay again. It worked out great. Pros , Right across the street from all the little stores and food market, a few houses from the ocean maybe a 3 minute walk. The beach and town wasn’t crowded at all and we went on memorial weekend to. The house worked good, not fancy but everything worked. It has a fenced in shared yard but my kids loved it and everyone was very nice. Couldn’t hear the neighbors even though they are very close. The train is right out front but again everyone loved it, and it only goes by a few times during the day. There is a laundry mat right down the road you can walk to. Cons , food was very expensive at the market. I would do your food shopping for your trip before you get to town at Fredmeyers or something. There’s no seasonings at the house either. AND the beds are very hard! I read that before and figured it would be fine but I woke up sore like an old lady. All in all I loved it.

Cute little place
Not big enough for 6 ppl. Only 6 ppl that are sleeping. It was very small. Seating was not comfortable. Bath tub plug was broke. Could not get it to plug. Had 3 kids under 7. So that was difficult. But loved location.

Comfy stay!
We stayed at Starfish 1 for about 2 weeks. It was small but comfy, with 2 bedrooms and a futon couch. We had to move the coffee table around to lay the futon down, but that wasn't a problem. The bathroom could use a paint job, and there's no ventilation in it unless you open the window, so there's some mold around the ceiling, and the toilet leaks a little, but overall, no big deal. The beds are quite comfy and there's comfy pillows and bedding. My biggest complaint would probably be the parking - other rentals on the street would have multiple vehicles and they parked directly in front of our door, which presented a problem as my dad is disabled and can't walk far. I would suggest that a sign be hung on the front porch saying 'Starfish 1 parking', and something similar for the other rentals. Also, quick tip - the post office won't deliver mail to the address, so they told me next time to just have anything sent to 'General Delivery' instead of the address! Convenient location, with a market just across the street and the beach a couple of blocks away. All in all, a comfy stay!

They just don't care
Broken stove, leaking fridge, uncomfortable beds, awful livingroom and very run-down. We are quite happy in modest abodes but this was just run down, rickety, and haphazardly thrown together. We couldn't cook on the stove but didn't realize until the second night because we had takeout the first night. It would take very little investment to make it a much nicer stay for families. The photos paint a much rosier picture than reality. The futon couch was so uncomfortable just to sit on, let alone sleep on, that it made everybody angry, and we couldn't sit down and relax together. I wish we hadn't wasted 2 nights here as our only summer vacation.
