SOLITUDE HOUSE ~ MCA 521

This room house worked well for our group, especially due to the large open living/dining/kitchen area adjacent to a lovely deck that overlooks the golf course. It does need a few repairs, and though the rental agency quickly responded to attempt to deal with them, we made do and had a great time anyway.

The house was located on the 9th hole of the golf course. When my husband and son were approaching the 9th hole they called us and we were able to go on the deck and watch them play.
We were walking distance to the beach, also
We had a great weekend.

The only 2 things that we would like to suggest is to maybe to put a small tv in the main living space and have access to a vacuum cleaner. we go to the beach alot with the dogs and would like to help keep things tidy.

overall it was good. The house is as bit understocked with the basics I have found in the past renting with Sunset. Cleaning products, sponges etc. And most of the houses have had a collection of DVD's. Showing my age here. And lastly, i got this rental last minute, and while the location is fine, I will try to be a bit more organized next time and find one of your awesome places on the beach or at the least with a beach view!

We were a group of five friends sharing the house for two nights. It was easy to find and easy to enter which is often not the case. We had a small problem with a clogged sink that the management company promptly fixed The kitchen was conducive to group cooking and we fully enjoyed our time here.

Very spacious house on the golf course. We enjoyed the deck and the large master bedroom, and our 2 kids liked having their own rooms. The kitchen was nice, but could use basic things like salt, pepper, and cleaning spray for basic counter clean-up. Otherwise, the house was great!

We had such fun at Solitude House. The layout is amazing and the deck overlooking the 9th hole is bliss! It has great shelter from the persistent coast wind. Here was plenty of space for our guests and our pups.
The master bedroom is huge! We slept well in the bed too. The hide-a-bed downstairs was surprisingly comfortable, though the second double bed upstairs could use a replacement, it creaked and had a large sag making it imdifficult for two people to sleep in. Overall, a wonderful stay. We hope to be back!

Very peaceful location within walking distance (about 1/3 mile to both beach and town).

we do love the home, spacious, clean, functional, lots of supplies.
but, the extra bedroom upstairs with the double bed is AWFUL!!! please get a queen!! and the comforters are awful, the downstairs hide abed comforter was soiled.
newer linens would be of help. but, everything else is great

just wish we were alittle closer to the beach

Nicely maintained home, very spacious. Family room, kitchen and large back deck overlook quiet golf course. Short walk from downtown

Lots of room--good location--nice to have lots of room.

Nice location on the golf course and a short walk to the beach. The second bedroom is a bit small but other than that no complaints whatsoever.

The Solitude House is always a guaranteed great place for the whole family to stay. Upon arrival, the house is always clean and well stocked. The location is in good proximity to Laneda Ave where the shops and businesses are. It's also just a quick walk (3-4 blocks from the beach). overall, we're always so happy with the rental experience.

A wonderful, clean and very spacious home on the golf course. Super close to and walkable distance to the beach and town. Short drive to Nehalem Bay too!
Excellent kitchen!

Manager's Response

Solitude House was really fantastic. At first we thought we would be a little further than usual from the beach or town and actually we couldn't believe how close we were to both, specially that there is a path to a great volleyball/tennis court and playground just a block away.
The house was very clean and well organized. Wish the master bedroom had a larger bed but it was good....Overall, it was a great stay!

The location and set-up of the Solitude house was perfect for our needs. Staying in Manzanita for the July holiday weekend is aways a treat, and we would definitely come back to stay in this wonderful home.

Manager's Response

I loved this place. Kitchen was well equipped as was the rest of the house. I will look to stay there again next time I'm in manzanita.

Very comfortable and nice for our family. Thanks

Great stay, except for the bed mattresses. Very hard, created back problems for several of us. Upgrade the mattresses, and it's a 10. Currently a 7.

The entire experience was wonderful. From the ladies when picking up the keys to experience of the house. We had 2 families and was more than enough room. Short walk to strip and beach. We will stay again.

Great weather. Good location.

The Solitude House was the perfect place for our family of 8 to enjoy a great 4 day weekend in Manzanita. The house is beautiful and secluded in the trees above the 9th hole with a view to the western horizon. The house is large and in perfect shape with a great deck. We couldn't be happier with the acommodations.

An open space to graze about with connected gracious sized kitchen, dining & living room. Every space was cozy comfortable to relax and enjoy company. A highlight was taking in the scenery from the deck in the sun while reading a book and talking with friends over happy hour snacks and cocktails.

We left a detailed comment card at the residence.

We had an awesome time with our family - 5 kids from 10-17. Plenty of space to spread out, one of the nicer rentals we've stayed in. The best part was the neighbohood felt so safe! The kids we're stopped by a police officer who was thrilled to hear they were playing cops and robbers in the whole area. I was very comfortable letting the kids walk to the beach or into town without us. The beach was gorgeous - a very easy walk. Thanks so much!

plenty of room for 7 adults and 2 infants. we would stay there again.

The house easily accommodated 8 people and our large dog. The master bedroom was amazing! The other two dedicated bedrooms were much smaller but adequate. The TV room the entry functioned well as a 4th bedroom. Overall nice layout and one of the most spacious homes we've rented.

The only outdoor space is a deck (no yard), but it truly does feel like the golf course is your giant backyard, with the occasional murmur of distant golfers and golf balls teeing off.

Our walk to the beach was an easy 7-10 mins, so if you don't need to see the ocean but want to be in walking distance, this is the place for you.

Some very small cons were the loud dishwasher and the kitchen garbage door being blocked every time the dishwasher was open.

Some extra perks were a nice new gas grill, and the wifi.

Neighborhood was super quiet, and we discovered the SUPER SECRET golfers' path to the north that acts as a shortcut to the park and town!

We'd recommend it to anyone with multiple parties, dogs, or kids that can handle stairs (otherwise bring a baby gate or two). We'll likely stay here again!

Great location on the 9th tee of the golf course. Easy walking to the golf course club house, the beach, and stores on Laneda. Good floor plan.

Only TV was in a small room for 3 people. Would suggest having the TV in the great room so more can watch TV together, and a TV in the master bedroom.

The back deck, the great room, and the master bedroom all had great views of golfers teeing off on the 9th hole.

Great for relection, reading and golf!

Had a great stay. Place was very clean and well appointed. Sunset Vacation Rentals was a pleasure to work with. I would stay here again.

House was very clean, well maintained, and had most all of the kitchen wear needed to prepare our Thanksgiving holiday. Very quiet and warm house. The house is situated just a few blocks from the beach, park, and main street in Manzanita. We would highly recommend this property.

We will definately rent this house again

We had a very nice time and the home we rented, which we have rented before, is a very nice getaway.
Thank you for making our stay very pleasant.

We had a lovely, week-long stay at Solitude House. The ping-pong table in the garage was a bit hit with the kids. The living space is lovely, spacious and comfortable. The walk to the beach is easy and we love the deck overlooking the 9th tee. The only negative comment is that there is a big, broken, messy tree, right up against the deck, that really should be taken down. It would not impact the privacy, since many other trees remain, but it would open up the sky and sunsent view and stop the messy tree droppings on the deck. If we return, I hope that imposing and damaged tree isnt still there. :-)

Very Nice, very comfortable. A table on the deck is needed. One of the best non-ocean views yet!

fun

We all enjoyed our stay, beautiful views, warmth and comfort. Thank you we would like to stay and rent this home again! We all enjoyed the ping pong table!

This was our second stay in this house. It is very well furnished and appointed, however as I told Betty on Sunday, the hide-a-bed was a dissappointment! It isn't comfortable to sit on or sleep on, and the fabric that holds the mattress was torn from the springs. We did a temporary fix, so we could use it. Blinds in the family area have been abused and lamps in the bedrooms were without light bulbs. We love this house for it's convenience to the golf course and want to rent it again next year. Hope the issues can be resolved. Thank you.

We have stayed at this home on numerous occassions and always enjoy the location overlooking the 9th hole of the golf course.
We have just a few complaints this year. 1 - there was no iron this year, but I believe there has always been one in the past.
2 - The kitchen was not as well equipped as we have found it in the past, i.e., not enought glasses for 8 people, not enough pans to cook a dinner for 8 people, not enough serving dishes.
3 - The bed in the upstairs Tropical decor bedroom is extremely uncomfortable for either one or two people. Needs to be replaced.

We were in this prorerty thanks for the owners, Sarah and John Ferguson, who had donated it to a charity auction, so we didn't interact with the property managers. The house was beautiful, we all enjoyed our stay! House was in perfect condition when we came in, and we tried to leave it in same condition.

This new beach house is light, fresh, and inviting! The open floor plan was perfect and many artistic surprises are incorporated throughout the house. We appreciated the gas fireplace and view of the golf course. It felt cozy enough for 2 of us, but would certainly be great for a whole family to enjoy. Of course, easy beach access was another bonus. We look forward to coming again and relaxing at this perfect destination!
