We enjoyed lounging on the deck overlooking a field and the woods, as well as our 5 minute walk to the beach. ##### Teri R. Stayed 2 nights in Apr 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Thomas W. Sep 30, 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Tiny Tranquility on the OR Coast Well-maintained property w/ a very functional community area w/ amenities. Dog park on site made it very convenient. Loved the finishes and attention to detail in the "Sandbug" Tiny House in which we stayed. Can't wait to go back... ##### Thomas W. Stayed 3 nights in Sep 2021 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Amanda S. Aug 12, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Perfect getaway spot So thankful for places that are still dog friendly like this spot! It was a perfect couples getaway on the coast and close to so many places. Multiple local beach access was a short drive down the street with hardly anyone there-perfect for dogs, Tidepools, and site seeing. The location of this spot being backed up to an empty lot gave it more privacy and made it seem like you weren’t in an RV spot (others were packed closer together). Inside was cleaned/perfectly prepared for new guests. If we ever plan another weekend in this area we’d definitely be back ##### Amanda S. Stayed 2 nights in Aug 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Susana H. Jan 17, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Wonderful Tiny Home stay! We loved having our dog with us to stay at this WONDERFUL tiny home. It was perfect for the two of us and Lulu. She especially enjoyed that it was on the edge of the lot of houses with a big field just outside the door. The tiny home was very clean and very well designed with beautiful finishes. There was a tiny wood burning stove that we recommend if you decide to use it bring already split very small pieces of wood and kindling along with your own hatchet, as the wood provided was a little too big and didn’t catch well. Overall a GREAT experience!! We loved it! ##### Susana H. Stayed 2 nights in Dec 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Joshua M. Aug 5, 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Great family getaway spot Me my wife and two little girls (8) and (5) loved the tiny home. Easy to find and check in was a breeze. Spot was quite and the neighbors where friendly. It’s super close to its own beach access. We explored the near by towns and then came back to the beach in the evenings. Girls loved the house. We even got to see a few deers in the meadow one morning. Great spot! ##### Joshua M.
