Love this place and would get it again.
A good location on the coast to beach walk, and investigate tide pools. Great restaurants while a quiet peaceful experience. Roomy, well furnished home. Would visit again!
We enjoyed this beach house. It is well equipped and comfortable. The view is great with a nice deck. The location is good, but the beach access is tough for older folks and old dogs.
When we arrived there was a power outage and the management company was responsive and provided updates. Once the lights were back we continued catching up with our granddaughters. The location is perfect and so beautiful. It meet our needs perfectly. We enjoyed exploring local sites and relaxing on the coast.
Had a wonderful Sewing weekend with a friend on a rainy and cold Oregon long weekend in November. Everything was wonderful except we had difficulty adjusting heat to be warm enough but not too warm in upstairs bedroom and baseboard heater in downstairs bedroom didn't seem to work at all. Found space heater in LR to bring into bedroom though. Otherwise, loved all the conveniences and such a great relaxing view of the ocean.

dealing with expedia was not fun. They don't give enough info and gave no answers to questions. After booking, I wasn't able to get ahold of them. I will never do business through them again. Fortunately Ocean Odyssey called at some point and they were great. Helpful and professional, I'll be booking directly through them in the future. The place was very sweet, fully stocked kitchen, lots of towels, very clean and comfortable, lovely location, great price...
The home is very well outfitted, furnishings very comfortable. Only criticism is poor or lack of usable lighting in downstairs bedroom. 2 lamps are provided with switches on cords but family member tripped going into dark room and had to fumble about to get a light on. Surely the wall switch is connected to an outlet that could be used to switch on a light with the wall switch. Fortunately she only was bruised from tripping and going down onto a suitcase. The location is lovely and the home inviting and comfortable

Great home, furnishings and amenities but, couldn’t turn down/off the heat in the twin bedroom so couldn’t use it. And the house with thermostat 60 or below and with doors open was too hot. No beach access at all and fencing that isn’t shown in the pictures you provide that blocks a lot of the view.
I called Katy and ask if there was easy beach access and was told yes. We had to walk up to Hwy 101, up to spindrift rd and go down there. So disappointed.

Reviewer Comments:
The rental location was wonderful, very close to Yachats but definitely outside the main town, with great views of the ocean and beach from the living room. Our main issues were that this location isn't great for anyone ~6ft tall, shower head was very low, window frames also low, garage very low, etc. There are oddly at least 4 cameras sitting in different windows of the house next door, all pointing away from that house and towards the rental, such that we felt the need to pull up blinds for privacy. No clear indications of whether the neighborhood has access to the beach, unless you read other reviews to learn of the steps near the creek. Lots of "no, please, be gentle" notes on nearly every wall, which made it hard to feel comfortable using the space. There's a CD player and a speaker with only a iPad dock. Heating was tricky to fine tune with not every heater being attached to thermostat, upstairs and bathroom with tub are either very cold or very hot.

Reviewer Comments:
As always, we loved staying at Serendipity, a place that we refer to as our home away from home. This is the first time, in the many years and visits that we've been coming, that I am leaving comments that are less than stellar. The issue is cleanliness. We are paying more than we ever have for the cleaning service, but found ourselves doing a lot more cleaning, and that we from the moment we arrived. The kitchen reeked of bacon grease and we had to take to cleaning every surface, particularly in and around the stove and microwave, to get rid of the smell. Also, the bathroom with the off the kitchen had a urine-like smell that we could not get rid despite multiple interventions.There was orangey face foundation on both pillow shams in the room with two twin beds that we had to spot clean and wash (got it out!).Then there were small things like coffee grounds still in the coffee maker. Also, for four people staying for six days, there was very little toilet paper available. We're fine about brining our own, but because we never had to before, we were caught unprepared.None of this will discourage us from staying again. We understand the employment challenges there on the coast (and everywhere), but when we're paying more for a clean home, we don't expect to work so much ourselves for the standard that we've always had there. Best, Jay & Sharon

Home is clean. Both bathrooms are in the first floor. Master bedroom is amazing. Beds are comfortable. Lots of options for seating. Short, one block walk on 101 to 804 trail. Opened window in bedroom with twin beds to help with musty smell. Quiet neighborhood.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Serendipity. The neighborhood is quiet plus the ocean is a short walk away. The laundry sink was just the right size to wash the sand off our westie's feet which was much appreciated. The kitchen is well equipped and I like the floor plan, clean cozy furniture plus the large upstairs master bedroom. Katie was a big help when we needed an extra parking space one night.

Well equiped, too many frying pans! The rental really needs an outdoor barbecue. Also, too many no no notes around. Great view of the ocean, but probably a tough walk to the beach for seniors.

I'm not much for writing reviews, so will simply say that Serendipity is our home away from home, which is why we try to return multiple times a year.

The downstairs bedroom has 2 twin beds, very comfy. The king bedroom upstairs was also comfortable and the view from upstairs is amazing. The great room has enough space to spread out and enjoy the view. The kitchen is well equipped. It is a troublesome walk to the beach for anyone with mobility issues. We enjoyed our stay.

Reviewer Comments:
Because one of the base board heaters was not working the house was cold. We were offered a space heater which saved the day. Except of course when the poser went out, three times. But that was beyond anyone’s control. Only other suggestion would be to say the beginning of the 804 trail is a short walk away because there is no way to access the trail directly to the house. One main reason we rented Serendipity was that we thought it did have direct access.Only other disappointment is no bathroom on the second floor where the beautiful king size bed is located. For people of a certain generation a nearby bathroom is essential. Overall it was a comfortable situation and we look forward to renting something from you another time.

We had a wonderful time at Ocean Odyssey. It was very comfortable and had a nice view of the ocean. Ocean access was close. It was well appointed and had everything that we needed. Hoping to stay here again!
The home is comfortable with a great location. The property is well lighted at night. The frontroom was our favorite because of the comfortable chairs and awesome views.
