HALLIE HOUSE ~ MCA 314

Location was perfect! Easy walk to the beach and downtown. House was older but had some nice updates and was comfortable. Pick up of keys at 9pm was simple and easy.

We were very happy with this vacation home. There is plenty of room for a large family. Loved the upper level family room that has views of the beach and was cozy for reading. Grateful for all of the kitchen appliances! The only thing to note was that the air hockey machine probably could get a good cleaning. Will stay here again in the future.

Manager's Response

Wonderfully located, two blocks from several coffee shop, restaurants and fun little stores. Very easy and short stroll to the beach. We had beautiful weather and spent hours on upper deck, in the sun, with perfect view for watching the ocean waves. Deck had discreet safety fence to ensure dog safety. The pet policy we appreciated so much. Plenty of room for all in the home for gathering together or time and place to nap alone. Furniture very comfortable. Enjoyed our stay in this home and would recommend Hallie, especially for groups and families.

Manager's Response

This was the perfect location for our families short getaway to the coast. The ocean is only very short walk, with a quiet street to walk our dogs on to the beach. The home's layout was comfortable and causal. Beds were comfortable! King in Master room. Very dog friendly with gates to keep the little ones on deck. Clean and uncluttered!

Hallie House is a family favorite although the last couple of times some cleaning and restocking of kitchen items seem to have been overlooked.

We have stayed at Hallie House several times over the past 5 years and we have already booked again next year. We love this place - great kitchen with a partial view of the ocean from living room and dining area as well. Great view from rooftop deck and some shelter from the wind.

This was our 3rd or 4th stay at Hallie House. It is a great location with easy (for older folks) beach access just a block away. We love watching the sunsets from the upper deck.

We have been coming to Manzanita for 30 years and have stayed in many homes as our family has grown. Hallie House (so far) is our favorite. Although, the stairs are a little challenging (3 of our kids have physical disabilities)it is the easiest to access the beach and downtown. We also love it because the deck view is spectacular and is situated to block most of the wind on days that it is too windy to be on the beach.

We always enjoy Manzanita and our stay at Hallie House is always great. It is lovely, clean, well stocked and great view from upper deck. The Offshore Grill is a great addition to the restaurants in town. And Their cinnamon rolls are even better than Bread and Ocean.

In 1954 my parents purchased this home - I was 12 years old and lived there until I was 20. The home has been completely renovated yet it was the same. My two daughters that live in Oregon and Washington and my daughter from Texas came one day to listen to the memories of long ago. The house, the view and this little small town still is surrounded by the magic of the sun, sand and sea. Rain was to be expected - yet it did not - the tides were high, yet the beauty of its power was amazing. The whole experience was a great moment in time.

We had a great time in a great time in a great community.

We had another amazing stay at the Hallie House:-)
We love the location and the views!

We had a fantastic time. House was as advertised. Loved the view of ocean from the house, across the street from the beach and only a few minutes walk to town. Kitchen was totally stocked. Anything you need from blenders to all baking cookware. Bring your own spices.

Great location and close to beach and town. Lots of seating choices and views.

Our 4th or 5th summer renting this home for a week of family fun! The location is perfect- close to the beach, to town and easy bike ride through the state park! The home was cleaned beautifully well especially considering it is a dog friendly home. The master bedroom and second bedroom have comfortable mattresses. The twin bunk bed mattresses are aging and not very comfortable for anyone above the age of 5-10 years. The kitchen has a nice work space but all the appliances are not great. If you like to cook, definitely bring your own cooking tools and sharp knives. The BBQ is not great quality but usable. The rental company was fantastic and very responsive to our few needs over the week. Overall, it was another wonderful stay on the Oregon Coast!

Manager's Response

We had a great time celebrating our 50th!

We stayed at halley house two consecutive years. After year one, we submitted a list of suggestions that would have made it easier for older folks, like ourselves, to stay there (such as a handicap bar in the shower of the downstairs bath). To the best of our knowledge, nothing on the list was done. We will not be returning.

Manager's Response

Everything was perfect at the Hallie House. We had two families stay there, each with two kids and we felt like we had so much extra room. The basement had a foosball table and laundry room and the top floor had a huge bonus room that we didn't even use because we had so much space for the kids to play. You are just a block from town and we walked there every day to grab ice cream, pizza, coffee, etc! The beach is also just a few steps away which was nice for our older children to take advantage of and walk down by themselves. I am sure this house books up every summer but I sure would love to stay here again!

Great house with a terrific location. Close to the main street and close to the ocean. There are ocean view from different areas. The upstairs had an additional living room with beautiful light, big windows and wrap around deck. there were puzzles and books available. The kitchen is very well equipped.

Clean, Big, Great views.

Our first family vacation in Manzanita, we fell in love with the small town atmosphere of this beachside community! The Hallie house was the perfect location, a short walk to restaurants, shopping, and just across the street to the beach! The home is spacious, with fantastic views from the upper level deck!

This is our second year at Hallie House. We have been coming to Manzanita every summer for the past 27 years. As our family has grown over the years we have had to change home size. We have always liked having an Ocean view and Hallie House has one of the best. The view from the upper deck is beautiful! We also love the proximity to downtown Manzanita, and the beach is only a 1-2 min walk. Cant wait to come back next year:-)

We have rented this house many times over the last 8 or so years. We totally love it. It is the perfect beach house for us and we look forward to next year!

GREAT

Great home - great location

Even better then the pictures. This house is so big and was very comfortable. Great location and the view was fantastic.

This is a great vacation rental nestled right next to the main downtown area. I loved that it took only a minute to walk over to the beach. The house was clean, well maintained and had nice decor. My only complaint was that the company does not refund the cleaning fee if there are no issues. Also the house had a slightly funky/dog smell when we first arrived, but overall it was the perfect spot for a weekend getaway.

Manager's Response

We had a wonderful time at Hallie House. All in all, it was a well appointed house with great space for a family. We enjoyed everything about our stay, with the exception of the following 2 items:

1. The kind mattress in the master needs to be replaced. It is well past its prime and quite uncomfortable. The pillows are about as flat as possible. Even if the mattress doesn't get replaced right away, the pillows need replacing. It's a small thing to make this house a 5-star house!

2. There was a slight smell to the house. When we arrived, we thought the previous renters had fried something, but it never left the house, and all of our belonging came home with the Hallie House aroma.

Manager's Response

Manzanita has been one of my favorite getaway places for many years.
But this is my first time staying in a rental house. We had family coming to visit from out of state and we needed several bedrooms.
The location of this property was perfect.
But the house smelled musty and the master bedrooms bed needs replacing.

Manager's Response

Excellent!!

Manager's Response

Location is great - one short block to beach access, and house overlooks the houses across the street so that you can see the beach. We spent every night up on the deck watching the sunset. Short drive to Cannon Beach and nice state parks. The house was very clean, updated, and had everything we needed. Parking is a little tight - small garage (wouldn't fit our SUV) and then a very small driveway. Would definitely stay here again.

Manager's Response

Hallie House is a great home for family gatherings with beautiful views of the ocean! The home is in good condition and it's obvious that the owners improve this home every year. The kitchen has been updated and has space for many to cook at the same time. Keep in mind that this is a rental and if you are particular about your kitchen gadgets, just bring your own! The knives are dull, and the fairly new nonstick pots are thin and burn food quickly. The BBQ runs very hot with grates close to the flames - tough to enjoy cooking on!
The mattresses are a little dated -especially the upstairs King-probably needs replaced soon. The rental co provides you with only "a starter pack" of paper goods - toilet paper and paper towels. (I find this very annoying after you spend so much money on rent and associated fees! ) Bring your own because the nearby stores are fairly expense.
Despite the negatives mentioned above, I love this house! The decks and patios are a wonderful place to relax to get away from the inevitable wind in the afternoons. Sunsets from the upper deck are magical!

A group of our close friends rented this house near the end of April. The keys were easy to pick up from the rental agency down the street. We arrived to a clean house and the grounds well maintained. We had plenty of room for everyone to sleep(there were 8 of us) and the living/ kitchen area was great for games, dinners and lounging together. The deck upstairs was the highlight of the property for us which we luckily got to take advantage of one of the evening during a beautiful sunset. We also noticed some whales off in the distance which amazing to watch.

The Location of the house is perfect. Its just a few steps to the beach and a block into town. Its also close to the coffee shop and restaurants. All in all, we really enjoyed our stay and will definitely be looking to book this property again soon!

One minor upgrade I might suggest to the property management would be to update the bed mattresses eventually. They are comfortable but just a little outdated.

We had a great time. Unfortunately the weather wasn't what we had wanted, but it is Oregon. :) We will for sure be back!

Manager's Response

A party of 7 of us + 2 dogs stayed for a casual weekend get together at Hallie House. with the two bedrooms on the main and the Master bedroom + TV room/extra sleep area upstairs it was a great place to spread out. Very locally located to the main street with plenty of goods, restaurants and services available two blocks over as well as a GREAT spa.

Manager's Response

We had a wonderful time during our stay at the Hallie House. It is a beautiful home in a perfect location. The walk to the beach and walk to town was less than five minutes. The home was cozy and has everything you need to have a fun-filled weekend.

The house was great, the service was great (check in, check out, housekeeping, etc.)

Manager's Response

We went slightly off season (early Sept) and caught perfect weather. Manzanita is exactly the unspoiled relaxing little seaside town that we wanted. I think the kids might have preferred more action at Cannon beach but age before beauty has its advantages. I don't think the write up on here does the deck and its view justice (might want to post pictures of the view guys!). Since this one was not on the beach but one row of houses back we worried that it might not deliver. However, the view is gorgeous especially at sunset with a glass of Pelican in hand! The house is well laid out and suited our 3 generations perfectly. A couple of pieces of furniture are getting close to needing an upgrade but on the whole Hallie House is well decorated, furnished, clean and home from home. We (ok that's the royal WE :-) cooked several meals in the kitchen and it is well equipped. Only thing we felt lack of was a high chair which we shipped and was there waiting for us (We didn't take it with us so hopefully will be there for toddlers in the future). All in all one of the best vacations in years. We miss walking barefoot to the beach and strolling a couple of blocks to Bread & Ocean for a wonderful brunch. WTH let's retire there!

Manager's Response

This was our third stay at Hallie House. The location is fabulous - very close to beach and town. There have been renovations made over the years and especially the new deck makes the house even more desirable. The management company is very easy to work with and the handbook in the house gives all the ins and outs about town and suggestions for restaurants and activities. We were disappointed we were unable to rebook for next year.

We had a great time at our recent stay at Hallie House. The home was spotless, comfortable, spacious and nicely furnished. The property manager was quick to respond. The location was perfect, very close to beach, shops and restaurants. I would highly recommend Hallie House.

Loved the house! The location and close proximity to beach and town is perfect!
We would stay here again.

Manager's Response

Everything about this stay was wonderful. The location can't be beat for this price. The place is beautiful and relaxing with plenty of room to spread out and relax. While it's true the towels were a little threadbare, it wasn't horrible and who cares when you're in paradise?!

Manager's Response

We had a great stay at Hallie House. The house itself is lovely, and has lots of room for a family or group of friends to spread out. The location can't be beat! It would have been nice if the kitchen would have been a little bit more equipped: only salt and pepper---how about a little bit of sugar or olive oil? That was very minor, though, and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay!

Manager's Response

Great location. Beautiful ocean view. Good layout for family reunion.

Manager's Response

We had a wonderful time and the house was great for the family! Lots of open spaces for toddlers and the "parents"!
The kitchen was lacking several necessities and oh my the wine opener was no where to be found! But town was a short walk to get one. My only recommendation is if you plan on cooking a lot bring your favorite spices and accompaniments etc. The items there were few. But a lovely place to cook meals...spacious!You will have a joyous time for sure...we did!

This was our fourth rental house with Sunset Rentals and they have been wonderful! Always a clean, well stocked house, & they are always helpful on the phone. We have liked all of our rental properties, but Hallie House was our very favorite!! It has a wonderful lay-out, very spacious for 8 of us, and the upper deck was amazing!! We loved the view, and had all of our family dinners up there! The upstairs family room was also a plus; large and comfortable. We could "spread out" all over the house. Also, it was so close to town but "tucked away" on it's side street. I would highly recommend this property!

Hallie House was a wonderful surprise with a great location to the beach and to town. The views of Neakahnie Mountain and beach were spectacular. The house was very clean on our arrival and our stay was comfortable. We really did not need any assistance from the rental staff during our stay but they were very friendly upon check in and check out. This was by far the best rental experience that I've had in 18 years of summer rentals in Manzanita!

This was our family's second stay at Hallie House. As before it was beautiful. Our family is there for the beach, relaxation and walking access to town. The neighborhood is friendly, the house is incredibly clean and everything was in perfect working order. We hope to be able to repeat our visit in the future.

We had a great stay at the Hallie House. A great location with a fabulous view.

Great location and great house perfect for our extended family (kids, grandparents, parents).
Loved the upper deck, amazing views of the beach and sunset.

Very comfortable and spacious house. Great location. Highly recommend.

This was our 2nd summer at Hallie House. It is in a great vacation with easy access to the beach and a very short walk to town. There were 4 adults and 2 children and the house works well for that number. I would suggest that perhaps chairs would be better at the dining table rather than the two side benches.
The kitchen is well stocked except for glasses - there are really not enough.
As opposed to last year, there was a strong smell of dog when we arrived. I know this is a pet friendly house - we bring a pet but certainly did not notice the smell last year. Also we tried to vacuum and the smell from the machine was horrendous.
Our favorite Manzanita restaurant is the Big Wave Caf and for a special dinner would recommend the Rising Star in Wheeler. Manzanos pizza is also good for eating in or take out.
We had no contact with the property management company.

Manager's Response

Excellent.... the house was perfert for our family of 4 adults and 3 children and one very happy dog! We have a problem with the ring in the toilet and it was managed quickly by the property mgmt

This is great house and super location. Totally enjoyed our stay!

The Hallie House was a great fit for us. Comfortable and super clean with great views and lots of different spaces. The bed was comfy and the ocean breeze lulled us to sleep. Big windows everywhere!

The rental property is wonderful and close to the beach with a wonderful view from the dining room window and upstairs from the rec room. The only downfall is the terrible bed in the downstairs bedroom. The mattress is terrible, lumpy, and so cheap it crunches every time you move.

Manager's Response

Wonderful location, walkable to town, walkable to beach. Not beach front, but had great beach views. Spacious family rooms with plenty of TV and indoor activities to enjoy while it was stormy outside. Great remodeled kitchen. Pellet stove was nice to keep warm at night. Staff was very responsive to a few requests and issues.

MY ONLY COMPLAINT:NO SLEEPER SOFA LIKE THE ADD STATES. OTHER WISE IS WAS AN AWESOME STAY. LOCATION WAS AMAZING, THE VIEW, THE ROOM IN THE HOUSE.

Manager's Response

House was perfect for us although we could use another regular bed or sofa hide-a-bed. Great feature was the view and close proximity to beach access. Would rent again.

windows in downstairs bedrooms would not stay up. dangerous. couldn't figure out how to play movies. linens (mattress pads) not good quality. kitchen very well equipped.

Manager's Response

I had seen the house previously, so I had some idea of what to expect, but was delightfully surprised as to how clean it was and how well stocked the kitchen was with all the utensils, pots, pans, etc., that you would need to make any meal. Since our grandchildren are very small, it is much easier to fix meals in and this kitchen was perfect. We had a fantastic stay and we appreciated your ordering perfect weather to go with the stay.

Suggestions: We could not get the Wii to work, but that may have been our lack of knowledge. Perhaps you could leave instructions to go with it.

I would suggest advertising the "hot tub" as a bathtub with jets as a hot tub suggests something outside.

We really appreciated the puzzles and books left there for the use of the children. They were really enjoyed, please keep that going.

These are really minor suggestions. It was just a perfect place for our family. We hope to rent again next year. It was just delightful.
