Perfect spring break getaway!

We had an amazing time! Kids loved it, we loved it! Such a great job on stocking the house with everything you might need to cook, I was super impressed!!!Only thing, the check in directions said there was a book for quest with check out procedures. We couldn't find any book, I hope we did okay shutting it down. We started a load of towels, the dishwasher, stripped the beds and took out the garbage, Made sure the heat was turned down to 50 and the house locked up.We LOVED our stay want to come back this summer! Thanks so much!

Our family had the best stay; we hope to make Pacific Beach and this home an annual trip. The kitchen was well stocked, the owner had someone out the next morning to help with the hot tub; our family was comfortable and enjoyed the stay. Thank you!

Absolutely cozy house on the beach that feels like home away from home. My family has now booked the Love Shack four times, and every time it's been more fun than the last. I especially loved the updates made in the last few years to the beautiful bathroom and the addition of the hot tub.This year we had an exceptionally fun time making the short drive (3 minutes) to Seabrook, where we were able to shop at their fine grocery store, visit the booths at their Saturday market, and explore the gorgeous Gnome trail.

The code for the lock and lockbox did not work so we could not enter the house to enjoy our 40 th wedding anniversary. Had to book different accommodations very inconvenient and unprofessional.....left multiple messages for host with no reply for 2 hrs at which point we had to make other reservations in the area in order to secure a place to stay for the weekend.......
Broken step on hot tub access steps with rusty screws sticking out
Very dirty hot tub that was only filled an hour before we arrived so it was cold cold...on front porch with no privacy

The hot tub is still broken only one jet works and there is a bunch of sand at bottom and step the get into hot tub is missing a board the rusted nails are sticking up to step on and impale your foot. The wood floor in the house is not safe it’s all splintered and splitting and caught two sets of socks and ruined them. The gas grille is so dirty that you would never put any food on it and the propane bottle is empty and so rusty I assume it hasn’t been filled in a long time! And so much more , I’m going report to Vrbo

Cute little house

My children and I came to spread my dad a stepmothers ashes because Pacific Beach was their favorite place to stay. The house was cute and spacious. The hot tub was Luke warm, we gad to turn it up and a step on the stairs broke getting in. Never could find the owners manual or the outdoor garbage can, but did the best we could. Did try to take a bath several times, but only enough water for a couple inches. I would stay again, with a couple suggestions.

Cozy reprieve on a stormy weekend

Check-in was a bit of a challenge as we'd been given the wrong keypad code, but the owner was quick to respond & get us in the door. House was perfect for our needs, and served us well despite the unexpected (extreme!) weather conditions.

Lovely place for a spring getaway

This little house made a great weekend getaway. It was comfy enough to lounge around reading on a rainy day, and a well placed base to explore the area from on the sunny days. We ate at a nice little restaurant served by friendly locals. We give it one less star because we had some confusion getting in: the email said the code was for the key lockbox, which didn't work. In fact, there is a keypad that's used now. Also, we couldn't find the owner's manual, which presumably told us how to work the hot tub, which we couldn't figure out.

Average beach house - worked in a pinch

We were desperate to beat the heatwave and were grateful to find an available booking on the coast. As they say, beggars cannot be choosers. This is an average beach house that met our needs but was nothing exceptional. It was quite spacious in the living area and the master bedroom. The large smart TV was also great. The house had not been fully cleaned upon arrival, but the owner was very prompt in resolving the issue and once the cleaning person returned to finish, she did an excellent job.

Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities, communication
Unfortunately, I did not enjoy my stay at this property. One major issue is that the lot is shared with another rental (“the second love shack”), and they don’t appear to have their own trash bins—so there were people frequently walking through the area in front of our rental to dispose of their garbage. The outdoor area had trash scattered around, which made things feel unkempt and uninviting. Inside, the bathroom was disappointing—the shower curtain had mold and yellow stains that were hard to ignore. The hot tub was filled with sand and clearly hadn’t been cleaned before our stay, so we weren’t able to use it. The beds were also not very comfortable. What pushed this experience toward a 1-star for me was the complete lack of communication. I reached out a week before my stay with a simple question about having a few family members over for dinner—no reply. I also asked about the check-in/check-out book because we couldn’t find it—again, no response. I shouldn’t have to chase down a host just to get basic information. This was meant to be a relaxing vacation, not a hassle. I truly hope the host improves their communication and upkeep for future guests

Not What Expected, Exactly Needed

Reading former reviews, hosts have improved much, and is a very pleasant place to stay if you’re ok with older/rustic beach cabin. We loved it. Communication was off. Booked asking for tips on clamming. (Never been.) No response. First day question about turning off hot tub at night (next to a bedroom window), and got a polite response that didn’t work. Turns out, didn’t wake the occupant anyways, so…Sent about 4 more messages covering various things: Hot-tub was dirty/sandy until we put more water in to reach the filtration (On front porch so no privacy.); as of today, still haven’t heard anything from hosts. (Hope they are ok.); neighborhood being trolled by people looking for empty homes to fill their garbage cans (Ours was filled when we arrived, then garbage took the cans away the day before we left, didn’t replace them, so had to leave garbage in inside canister.). The street was fairly busy with trucks and camping trailers, as it is the main entrance to a state park. We believe the unit behind the cabin is also available with the booking, but never used it with only us there. All-and-all it was a very pleasant stay for us. If you get a chance, the Ocean Crest Resort restaraunt was amazing! Not cheap but very worth it. The library in Ocean Shores was also nice. Good selection.
