"We had a fabulous time in Lincoln City. "

Manager Response: I'm happy you enjoyed The Porthole! Hope to see you again for another fun stay. Thanks, Karen

"The place was clean but dated. Towels were terrible....they are what I would use as rags to wash my car. Only one burner on the stove worked. The basement is impossible to heat. Overall the house was very overpriced for what it is. We were unable to get to the beach...access is limited to young agile kids, not something we could access, even out 11yrar old had a hard time.The upside is that the people I felt with were very nice and very helpful. I would use A1 Beach Rentals again."

Manager Response: I'm sorry you had troubles at The Porthole. I'm on it. The heat works great but a vent was probably shut to the lower portion of the house. I will check that asap. The beach access changes with the tides as sand comes in and is pulled out from the street. Much of the time it's an easy access but not always. Burners are working and have induction heat . That means they shut off and on as desired temp is reached. Thanks for the heads up on towels. Karen

"My family and I really enjoyed our stay. Great views and great memories. "

Manager Response: "Great memories and great views" help make a nice family vacation. We are glad you enjoyed our peaceful PORTHOLE! Hope to see you again! - Lynn

"We loved watching the HUGE waves and though it rained almost the whole time we did get to walk the beach a couple mornings. Home is perfectly appointed and we used the fireplace a LOT because it was a bit chilly. We loved it."

Manager Response: So glad you had a great experience at PORTHOLE! Sounds like you came with the chilly rain; happy for the huge fireplace! Please come again! - Lynn

"We met from 4 different states for a girls weekend at this most amazing beach rental. Everything was in pristine condition, the hot tub was sparkling clean and ready for a soak, the beds were so comfortable, the views are incredible from this house from the back porch at the chiminea and tub and the upper deck as well, and the living room was perfect for playing games and catching up while lounging on cozy couches. We all want to bring our families back to this spot and will be back for sure. The town is adorable and we had a blast shopping and did the stunning Drift Creek Falls hike- so worth it!"

Manager Response: What more can be said about PORTHOLE than you already did? This property has such an appealing location, and yes, the views from the deck are amazing, the house cozy and peaceful. From four different states? We hope you will do this again! - Lynn

"fantastic view of the ocean. fireplaces inside and out. very comfortable beds."

Manager Response: We are happy you enjoyed your stay at PORTHOLE! With its "fantastic views," peaceful setting and comfort, it is a great property. Please come again! - Lynn

"Our family had a great time at this beach house. My husband and I took our two daughters and five grandchildren for a beach vacation. The layout of the bedrooms worked well. The location was good with day trips to Newport and Depot Bay. The access to the beach was pretty easy, just holding on to the little grandkids with the small loose rock to get to beach. Kitchen was well stocked with all that was needed to cook with. Washer and dryer worked well. Plenty of room to spread out in.
We have rented from A-1 for over 17 years. Our all time favorite is the RoadsEnd
House. It was already booked this time."

Manager Response: 17 years is a long time to have rented vacation properties from a1! THANK YOU! PORTHOLE has so many plusses; glad you enjoyed your grandkids at this wonderful home. See you again! - Lynn

"The house was absolutely everything we were looking for. The hot tub was actually hot, much appreciated, and overlooked the ocean...PERFECT!!! Quick walk to the beach, really couldn't have asked for more. "

Manager Response: So happy you found that PORTHOLE met all of your expectations! Thank you, and please visit again! - Lynn

"The house was just as I imagined! Incredible views, hot tub very relaxing and those ocean waves mesmerizing. We loved having a fire in the backyard. Weather fantastic. Great location so central to all we wanted to experience. Thank you again for providing highchair and playpen. The house easily accommodated 6 adults & 2 babies."

Manager Response: Thank you for the many compliments on the peaceful setting of PORTHOLE! So glad you were able to use the backyard fire while enjoying the ocean! - Lynn

"We enjoyed the house & hot tub, it was very nice!!!"

Manager Response: Thank you for choosing PORTHOLE! yes, this is an enjoyable property with its amazing deck, views, location, and hot tub. Hope to see you again! - Lynn

"This house would be good for a family with children. Grandparents may have problems going up and down stairs and walking down steep hill to the beach. Ocean view is partial.
Internet service was great, cell service wasn't but that is logical given the hill behind the house, just would plan differently knowing that if I needed to rely on cell service.
Hot tub was very clean and the house was well kept. Essentials for cooking were all there, don't forget to pack items for leftovers if you have them."

Manager Response: Thank you for enjoying what PORTHOLE has to offer; privacy, a clean and well kept property, and a beautiful view from the upper deck. While we hope for the best experience for our guests, it helps to know the needs since we have many houses that accommodate various age groups. I hope you found the other nearby beach entrances located a short drive north or south of Porthole. Please come again! - Lynn

"The house was clean and very cute. We enjoyed our stay. My only complaints would be that I had to fold the towels from the dryer left by the cleaning company. The pillows were pretty flat. I suggest they purchase new pillows for this unit, and the hot tub jets were not working properly. More like a soaking tub than a jetted tub. Other than that the place was great."

Manager Response: Thank you for your comments; what needs more attention was given to the owner (pillows, hot tub) but happy you still enjoyed your stay at PORTHOLE. Our cleaners sometimes get behind when the property is extra messy, so leaving towels drying in the dryer for your stay might happen. I hope they were completely dry. We hope to see you again. - Lynn

"Stayed with some girlfriends for a 31st birthday party! Loved the house the location and the service! Everything was well managed and communicated. Would definitely stay at the same location again and also use the property management again. Thank you!"

Manager Response: I'm happy you enjoyed The Porthole for the special birthday! Thanks for staying and hope to see you again soon. Karen

"Over all, it was satisfactory. The showeres where a little bit too small . Other than that everything was very nice. ��"

Manager Response: Thank you for visiting PORTHOLE! This restored vintage home came with adequate yet smaller bathrooms; however, we hope the peaceful setting, and beautiful deck overlooking the great ocean made up for that. ( I like the shower in the laundry area for convenience!) We hope you visit an a1 property again! - Lynn

"We enjoyed being so close to the ocean: the sights and sounds from Porthole kept us constantly aware, which is a good thing for us. We also enjoyed the easy access to the beach proper and we did lots of walking and exploring. We also appreciated our ability to walk to restaurants, e.g., Mo's and Clementines."

Manager Response: So happy that you enjoyed Porthole! Please visit again soon!

"House was as described. We liked the floor plan , the views and the kitchen. Beach access was an easy walk. Gas grill would have been a plus. We had a great time with our adult children, their spouses, and our grandchildren at the beach, Oregon Aquarium, surfing at Agate Beach. "

Manager Response: So pleased that you enjoyed Porthole! Come visit again soon!

"There were 7 of us and we had a great time:) Weather was perfect and watching sunsets and walks on beach worked out great. Beach was not a long walk away and hot tub just made the stay that much nicer."

Manager Response: Thanks for staying at the POrthole. I'm happy you had a nice time. Karen

"8 of us ladies stayed the weekend at Porthole and it was probably the cleanest rental home I've ever seen. The view was spectacular and we had a lovely time. Please note that there are stairs down to the kitchen while the living area is upstairs. It would be a challenge to anyone who has trouble with stairs. I also feel there is plenty of parking for 4 cars rather than the strict 3 car rule. The mattresses weren't the most comfortable in my opinion, a higher quality of mattress may be worth the investment - but they weren't horrible. I'd bring an extra pillow if you like sleeping with more than only 1. But having 7 beds in the home is a big plus in my book - so we didn't have to share. The walk to the beach itself might also be a struggle for some - a steep hill and navigating down some rocks but all in all - it's a great home and Karen at A-1 was SO accommodating and helpful."

Manager Response: Really happy that you could stay with us! Hope to see you again soon!

"It was different having the kitchen and living area on 2 different floors. Kitchen window needs a shade for evening meals when the sun is shining. shrubbery needs to be trimmed by the hot tub so you can enjoy the view"

Manager Response: Thanks for staying! Come again soon!

"A group of 8 crafting ladies go to the coast for a little retreat twice a year. This was the perfect house. Thought it sleeps 10 it was really comfortable for 8. There was room to set up a couple of tables for the scrapbookers and plenty of comfy seating for the knitters, readers, etc. We loved having the kitchen downstairs away from the living area as we were able to keep the snacking to a minimum. The house was very clean and homey and a few of us were really excited to have a hot tub. We loved it and if our group stays this size we will be back."

Manager Response: Dear Diana, What a memory maker for you and your group! Scrapbooking and knitting! Makes me smile. Thank you! Until next time! - Lynn with a1

"The house was wonderful, the views were excellent. Having the kitchen downstairs was a little different."

Manager Response: Glad you had a great stay at Porthole! Hope you visit again soon!

"we had a great time staying at the house . would love to come back and stay sometime again."

Manager Response: Thanks for staying. Happy you had a nice time. Karen

"We had an amazing time! We had the perfect weather on Saturday and the Beach entrance is just a short 2 Minute walk from the house. The view from the upstairs and downstairs windows are perfect.There were enough beds for 8 adult women with only 2 people actually having to share a queen. One of the bedrooms is a little odd with 3 beds in one room seperated by curtains. It was fine for us since it was just the gals, but could be odd if there were several couples and singles together. Not very much privacy. The bathrooms were modern. Showers a little small. The kitchen has been nicely updated and had all the utensils we needed for cooking breakfast and dinner. Minimal spices, no cooking oil or condiments of any kind. Overall the house was very clean and cozy. The location was great and we would definitely stay here again!"

Manager Response: Thanks for staying at Porthole . I'm happy you had a nice time. Summer is extra fun at this house because of all the foliage in bloom on this quiet dead end road . Hope to see you again. Karen

"This is a wonderful beach house overlooking the ocean. The view is outstanding! This house is very comfortable for a group of ten people. The kitchen is downstairs along with two bedrooms and the living room is upstairs along with one bedroom. There are bathrooms on both levels. The bushes were grown up by the hot tub and you couldn't see the ocean while sitting in it. (They would be easy to trim up) The only downfall we saw was that it is a little bit of a hike to get to the beach and you have to climb down a rocky pathway to get to down to the beach. "

Manager Response: Hi, DeeAnn, your stay at PORTHOLE sounds overall refreshing; glad you enjoyed this peaceful property with your group. Thank you for the heads up on the bush trimming; we will look into that. As for beach access, I've been there recently, and it is rocky since the ocean tends to wash upwards towards shore. We hope you found the other nearby accesses which are easier to walk over. Please come again! - Lynn with a1

"Cute house with amazing view and quick walk to the beach. Only negatives were the steep driveway and the showers were too small for an average adult to use comfortably but I would still consider renting again."

Manager Response: HI, Melissa, yes PORTHOLD has amazing views, is a short walk, and we love it for the privacy. Yes, one shower is smaller while the other is quite large. We hope to see you again! - Lynn with a1

"The view is amazing. The house is cute but the layout is odd. We knew that going into it, but we just were not fans of the kitchen being downstairs and the living room upstairs. There was a lot of up and down the stairs. The parking area/driveway is pretty challenging to get to - it's down a narrow road and an immediate "U-turn" to get to the driveway. "

Manager Response: Hi, Kelli, PORTHOLE is a nicely restored vintage home so the layout is unusual yet works for most. We hope the peaceful setting and amazing views made your stay enjoyable. We hope t see you again! - Lynn with a1

"Wonderful view, accessibility to the beach,and very quiet. The home is well maintained with vintage charm. The downstairs stays on the cool side, the beds are ok, and the driveway requires a little maneuvering. This home would be a place I would stay again. "

Manager Response: I'm happy you liked the Porthole. Your group is always welcome. Karen

"We had a wonderful stay. It was a bit different not having kitchen and living area on same level but super cozy living room "

Manager Response: So happy you had a nice time at Porthole. The Galley kitchen is kinda nice because it gives 2 living spaces with that patio, hot tub , picnic table just off the kitchen and overlooking the ocean. The family room upstairs has the big wrap around deck with adirondacks. There's plenty of space for spreading out and enjoying that ocean view. Your group is always welcome. Karen

"not a very detailed description of beach access"

Manager Response: I'm sorry the beach access is not detailed. It changes depending on the seasons & tide. The walk to the beach access is lovely but the beach entrance itself changes. I'll make sure to add that to the description. Thanks, Karen

"The house was quite comfortable with plenty of room for 8 adults. Property managers were extremely helpful. The area is beautiful. And we got to experience the solar eclipse!"

Manager Response: So glad you enjoyed the Porthole and the eclipse! Come back again soon!

"Fun yearly trip with family. One bedroom has curtains that do not close, so no privacy! I received 4 emails from A-1 during my stay which I feel is a bit over kill."

"great time"

Manager Response: Glad you enjoyed your stay! Please come again soon!

"What a great place to stay. We loved everything about it. The property is well kept and offers ample space and lots of amenities. The location was great for our Oregon Coast adventures. Restaurants were fantastic (both in Lincoln City and all along the coastal towns) I think we ate clam chowder at every one we visited! All in all, just a fun, relaxing time in a beautiful part of our country. Thanks!"

Manager Response: Thanks for the kind review! So glad you enjoyed the Porthole! Please come again soon!

"The views were amazing, and the beach was close. We used the fireplace for two evenings before the sun came out for the remainder of our stay.

Kitchen is slightly small for a big group, but we worked it out just fine.

We all agreed we'd stay here again."

Manager Response: Really glad you enjoyed your stay! Please come again soon!

"I cleaned the oven on arrival so we would not smoke up our food. Hot tub cover needs a lifter and bushes could be trimmed so we can see the ocean. House was clean. Would be nice to have food storage with covers or celephane provided. Also one serving of coffee would be nice. We had problem getting TV to have signal. Service man came in and set up with batteries in the remote, etc. Fire wood or logs would have been nice since there was a wood burning fire place only."

Manager Response: I'm sorry you had to clean the oven. The cleaner and I will discuss that . The bushes were trimmed on the property but not the neighbors property. So glad Andrew got a quick solve to the remote issue. YOur supply & firewood suggestion is appreciated. Thanks, Karen

"It was great! We enjoyed this house a lot. It fit all of us perfectly. And had great views and luckily great weather. It was a short walk to the beach, the walk back up the hill was tiring but we had 6 kids with us ages ranging from 5-10 and they hiked back up just fine. Also just a heads up the house says it has 2 1/2 baths. It has 1 bathroom with a taoilet and bathtub only, another bathroom with 1 toilet and a shower, and then a shower in the laundry room. We would have preferred 3 toilets but it still worked out great. Overall for the price it was a great spot, very clean, and the owners were super nice and friendly and answered all of our questions promptly. We would stay here again. "

Manager Response: Glad you enjoyed your time at the Porthole! Please come again soon!

"A Respite before starting a new Job-- I loved the Old Chair by the Window-- Very Comfortable, Fire Place is Exceptional -- Fire Each Night. Private and Peaceful. Thanks for the Clean Accommodations. "

Manager Response: Glad you enjoyed your stay! Please come again!

"High praise for this charming seaside home. Best features are the location, easy access to the beach, awesome views, quiet neighborhood, well appointed with fine appliances and equipment, and the hot tub! Special consideration: although there are several beds, there are only three private spaces, hence "intimate," as in limited privacy in large numbers; I will be amazed if a guest finds this property on first try, quite a challenging labyrinth. The paved street access to the beach is steep but not difficult, and there are some challenging boulders between roads end and the beach. I highly recommend this location for most large families or small mixed company groups. Excellent value for the price, wow! I will definitely stay here again. "

Manager Response: So glad you enjoyed your time at the beach! Visit again soon!

"Beach house was perfect. Definitely had enough beds to fit us all & cozy. Our view of the beach was beautiful. Definitely would stay here again. Thank you. "

Manager Response: Happy that you had a great stay at Porthole! Please come again soon!

"I sat on the deck and watched whales! Hot tub was great! The house had everything we needed. The two times we called the property management they answered right away and helped us! Beach and Tide pools were great. Love how secluded it felt with the trees and landscaping."

Manager Response: So glad you enjoyed the whales and your time at the Porthole! Please visit again soon!

"We loved the charm of the house. While not directly on the beach, the ocean view was expansive, unobstructed and exhilarating. The rental had all of the necessary comforts including easily accessible internet, hot tubs, towels, refrigerator and microwave. The washer and dryer were bonuses. Clean home. "

Manager Response: Thanks for the kind review! So glad you enjoyed your time at Porthole! Please come again soon!

"We were very happy with the accommodations, the location, and the beautiful view."

Manager Response: Glad that you enjoyed the Porthole! Hope you return again soon!

"As advertised beautiful views - easy walk to the beach - QUITE - nice rooms great amenities they do need a blind on the dining room window"

Manager Response: Glad you enjoyed your time at Porthole! Please visit again soon!

"Great views of the coast from backyard and balcony. Clean house but the three bedrooms had weird configurations. Shouldve done one bedroom as a master with one bed instead of throwing twin beds in each room. Very quiet house. Only had one shower in the entire house. 2nd bathroom there was no water out of the shower and bathroom upstairs was only a bathtub. Overall, cute place, great views, and good location. "

Manager Response: Thanks for the Heads Up on the 2nd shower . The shower head was broken and since then repaired. So happy these guests enjoyed the Porthole. Karen

"House was very clean and views were fantastic.
Beds were super comfortable and house was in a location that was very quiet.
I would highly recommend this house.
"

Manager Response: Really glad you enjoyed your time at Porthole! Please come again soon!

"The property was a little difficult to find at first. The directions were very good and really helped. The view was great. It was our biggest reason for choosing Porthole. It was bigger than we needed for our party but I would definitely recommend it to anyone with a larger group or someone who just wants a great view of the ocean. "

Manager Response: Glad that you enjoyed the Porthole! Please come again soon!

"Great Girls weekend....Only suggestion is the downstairs bedroom with the step-down add a large area rug for the cold winter months similar to the other bedroom downstairs other than that fabulous weekend.
Though only 3 cars are allowed to park at the property (Lincoln City Ordinance) was truly the only issue"

Manager Response: Thanks for the suggestion for a rug for the step down bedroom. I'm on it. So happy you girls had a nice time. Honored to have you anytime. Karen

"Our group of friends had a great time staying at the Porthole Lincoln City beach cabin. We have celebrated there several times and hope to return again. The cabin is cozy, comfortable, and provides a most amazing view. This location helps create an environment which seems as if you are the only building around. The downstairs can get a little cold, particularly the one end room, but the upstairs remained warm and inviting. Overall a wonderful place to visit."

Manager Response: Glad you enjoyed Porthole! Please visit again soon! I'll check the vent to the downstairs back room. Thanks, Karen

"The place was great. Clean and cozy. Wonderful view of the ocean. Great location. We will be back again and again."

Manager Response: Glad that you enjoyed the Porthole! Please visit again soon!

"My sisters, cousin & I had a great time at the Porthole. Neat, clean & comfortable. The ocean view was awesome. Loved the hot tub! Rained most of the time but we didn,t care. The walk to the beach was further than expected but still ok. Great home, Thank you, Beck Family"

Manager Response: Glad you had a great stay at the Porthole! Visit again soon!

"Our stay was great with the exception of it being very cold downstairs. I used to work for a heating company and notice there's a heat duct vent directly below the thermostat which I believe was causing the heater to turn off before the downstairs could get warm. There was an electric space heater in one of the downstairs bedrooms which helped. "

Manager Response: We checked the heat and directed more downstairs with a closed vent that is now open. Happy you had a nice time at the Porthole. Hope to see you again soon. Karen

"The Porthole was the perfect location for a girls' weekend getaway. The house was clean and within walking distance of the beach. The view is spectacular!

The property management was professional and quick to respond to my questions.

Drawbacks include a funky layout if you are traveling with multiple families or people who have trouble navigating stairs. Note that the kitchen, shower, hot tub, and two bedrooms are downstairs; the living room, one bedroom, deck, and a bathroom with a tub (no shower) are at ground level. Also, the parking area is really tight - smaller cars and/or a back-up camera are recommended.

I would definitely book again!"

Manager Response: Thanks so much for staying at Porthole! Hope to see you again soon!

"Despite the hot tub not working and not being able to get the back door open, we enjoyed the deck and views from the living room immensely. The beach is lovely, but a bit of a trek down to access. The sleeping arrangements are interesting with twin beds and queen beds in the same rooms. Lynn at the rental company was very accessible and friendly! "

Manager Response: Sorry about the hot tub. We got it repaired & made an adjustment to that back door. I'm happy you enjoyed the view from living room, deck & patio. Thank you for staying. Karen

"The home was a cozy getaway with breathtaking views, which equates to an amazing family experience. Thank you for everything!"

Manager Response: So happy that you enjoyed your stay at Porthole! Please come visit again soon!

"Our entire group enjoyed every moment downtown at the house. It was stocked with everything we needed. Rooms were spacious and house was stocked."

Manager Response: Happy that you enjoyed the Porthole! Visit again soon!

"Words can't describe how much our family loves staying at the Porthole. We look forward to our annual stay so very much. See you next year! "

"The house was nice. Amazing view and really enjoyed the fireplace and hot tub. The porch swing was also nice. Enjoyed relaxing on the deck. "

"We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at your beach house. Thanks for sharing it with us! We'll probably be back!"

"It was very enjoyable. The house is spacious and charming. The kitchen was well stocked with dishes, cookware, and everything else one would need. There were plenty of towels and the place was very clean. The location was perfect, about a block off of the beach. We had a fantastic time sitting on the patio enjoying the view. The people who care for the place are incredibly kind and responsive. We were very happy we chose this place and look forward to making memories there for years to come. "

"All good - cleaning staff should check all lights after each stay as several bulbs were out when we arrived, but not really a problem . . lovely home."

"We really enjoyed the Porthole in Lincoln City. The Home is casual and cozy, unique & quaint. The View is perfect. The Home was clean and worked great for 3 adults and 6 teenage girls!! The split level sleeping arrangments were perfect, Thank you for sharing your home!"

"The house is awesome, very clean and great location. We did have the toilet backup around 10:00 pm and water was everywhere! We called management and they took care of it right away. So it didn't end up ruining the weekend. "

"The Porthole beach house was spectacular! We had everything we needed and a great view of the ocean! "

"Our stay at the Porthole was fabulous to say the least. We rented to celebrate a birthday and to have a girls weekend, the veiw was fantastic and the weather was perfect, we even got the chance to sunbathe. The beds were clean and comfortable and there were plenty of extra linens. The kitchen had every untensil we needed and was very clean. It was a very short walk to the beach and a five minute drive to the outlet mall and restaurants. We did not want our weekend to end! I would reccomend this house to anyone and we will most likely return!"

"We had a lot of fun. The house is beautiful with amazing views. There was plenty of space and the house was very clean. We are hoping to get back out there again sometime this summer."

"My family came to Lincoln City for an ocean fix and to relax together.Porthole was clean and comfy with amazing had everything we needed. We loved it. Truly a special place. Thank-You. We will be back."

"This property has prime location, great view of ocean front. The view in the living room and upper porch is to die for. A short walk to the beach is close enough but not too close. The proper is clean but very dated. kitchen and bathrooms need some serious update. "

"The Nielsen family of 7 adults and 3 grandkids, ages 5, 3 and 1 all enjoyed our stay at the Porthole. The cottage was cute, quaint and charmingly decorated with a nautical theme. We had great views of the ocean from the upstairs living room and downstairs kitchen/dining room and enjoyed sitting on the deck to watch the waves, seals and surfers. Lots of up and down the stairs for Grammie but she certainly got her exercise. We had great weather during our stay which made our time together on the coast even more enjoyable. We liked the location of the Porthole, the south end of Lincoln city. Driveway was a bit tricky to maneuver with our suburban but manageable. Beach access was difficult for our 80 yr old grammie but she was content to enjoy the views from the deck and living room after one trip down to the beach. Only a short 5 min. walk for the rest of us. The relaxing hot tub situated under the deck with a partial view of the ocean, was a nightly hit for all after a long day sightseeing or playing on the beach. The grandkids enjoyed roasting hotdogs and marshmellows for smores in the outdoor fireplace.
Our only complaint was the downstairs shower was broken when we arrived and we had to do without it's use for a day while a plumber fixed it. All in all we enjoyed our family time at the Porthole in Lincoln City and would come back for another stay.
"

"We had a great time. This was our first girls weekend and we had a blast. We were all ready to go back. We really enjoyed the views from the house. It was a great space and we all had our own bed. The only recommendations that we would suggest is fixing the back door, it would get stuck a lot. A bigger hot tub, maybe it felt that way because there was 7 of us. Last it would be great to have a path straight to the beach from the backyard. Other those those few things we really enjoyed the house. "

"Very Very nice accommodations. There are alot of stairs between the levels so this would not be a good place for elderly or little children who could fall down them. We had a delightful time."

"Very nice place to stay in every way!!!"

Manager Response: Thanks for staying! Please come again!

"Our stay was great!"

Manager Response: Thanks for coming! Please visit again soon!

"It was very stormy so we didn't get to enjoy the fire pit, but enjoyed the fireplace and the view of the storm upstairs."

Manager Response: Thanks for coming! Come back soon!

"This rental was in very good condition! It had everything we needed and the views were beautiful! The hot tub was so nice and perfect. You could see the ocean from the porch and from while soaking in the hot tub. It couldn't have been more perfect! Thank you so much!"

Manager Response: Thanks for staying! Come back again!

"This was a wonderful home in an absolutely beatiful location. We had friends come in from Texas and this home generously provided enough space for all 7 of us. It was close to the beach although the walk is a little steep and getting onto the beach was a little difficult for the kids as it was rocky. We all loved the view from the windows and enjoyed the view from the outside deck. The house was centrally located so we were able to enjoy Newport and Depoe Bay with just a short drive. We would highly recommend this property and would rent it again."

Manager Response: Thanks so much for coming! Please visit again soon!

"Prefer open floor plan. Beds and rooms not practical. Loved fireplace. "

Manager Response: Thanks for staying!

"Wonderful winter weekend! Warm, cozy, spaces for all!"

Manager Response: Thanks for coming! Please visit again!

"This home was perfect! Plenty of room and very close to the beach! Nice size kitchen and living room. The hot tub was great as well. Will definitely be coming back! "

Manager Response: Thanks for staying!

"The home was very comfortable for 10 people. We had a wonderful time and enjoyed our stay. The rental company had wonderful communication and was a pleasure to work with. "

Manager Response: Thanks for staying! Please come again!

"You lnow you enjoyed your stay when you are reluctant to leave a review because you are worried that you are letting out a secret and when you go to book next year it may get filled.
The house is really well maintained and clean! The hot tub crew was there at check out to prepare for the next guests and the hot tub was perfect clean and has a great view. The beds are comfortable the furnishings in the living room were great and the kitchen is amazing and well equipped. The photos of the place did not show just how nice and large the bedrooms are. Also for you VRBO folks I would rent from A 1 first they were great and VRBO glitched the payment and A 1 took care of it immediately. The whole package deal was amazing thanks A 1."

Manager Response: Thanks a lot! Come back soon!

"Had a great time celebrating out one year wedding anniversary."

Manager Response: Thanks for visiting!

"We had a wonderful time at the Porthole. It was a Mothers Day getaway with our 2 daughters and their families. Perfect setting, close to the beach, great hot tub time and the back yard with the fire pit was the best! We loved it all!"

Manager Response: Thanks for coming! Glad you enjoyed your stay!

"we spent our fourth of july week at the porthole with 2 young families and had a great time! the views from the deck were amazing. the location was excellent and was 10 minutes from anywhere we wanted to go. the weather was perfect. my only watch out would be to keep the blinds down in the living room on sunny days as it can get really warm. "

Manager Response: Thanks for staying! Please come again soon!

"Good except for drive way and parking lot"

"Loved the views! The house was nice. We had beautiful weather while we were there. So most of our time was spent on the lower porch enjoying the view. We really didn't use the upstairs although the upstairs was very nice. Driveway was a little tricky. This property was very private despite the motel above it and house right next door. If the owners would put in a staircase from back yard to street below for an easier access to the beach. That would greatly improve this property. "

"Super fun beach weekend with friends. This place is cozy but well-organized for a small space. It's a little hard to find -- follow instructions closely! Bring your own firewood -- the fireplace is lovely. Thank you to A-1 rental for very clear and professional booking."

Manager Response: So glad you enjoyed your time at the beach! Please come again soon!
