Their listings include houses and condos available in all sizes, some pet friendly, some with hot tubs, some with fireplaces, and some with even a garage to park in! The check-in and check-out times are reasonable, as well as cleaning fees. Everyone I've worked with for our reservations have been helpful and accommodating. Their website is user-friendly and making reservations online is a breeze. I would definitely recommend them.

Sadly, our two-week stay in Feb. and March -- planned as a celebration of a 78th birthday -- was significantly undermined by Sweet Homes' mismanagement. We arrived to a freezing house with a broken heat pump. Over the first two days we made 16 calls to Sweet Homes, most of which went unanswered for hours. VRBO ultimately had to intervene. Both suggested moving us to another property. Sweet Homes offered one nearby the first night, but we were exhausted from a very long drive and the whole unpacking process. And we had chosen this property specifically for its fenced yard for our two small dogs; alternate properties couldn't match that. Space heaters helped, together with the gas fireplace and baseboard heaters in the bedrooms and baths, but it was still drafty. A technician eventually came, but even with express-shipped parts the heat pump was never repaired. We went the entire two weeks without it. Additional issues included a broken ice maker, missing fireplace remote, non-working DVD players, and a home that hadn't been thoroughly cleaned--dusty surfaces, cobwebs, and dirty windows that obscured the beautiful views when sunlight broke through. We also wish Sweet Homes had warned us about the hazardous beach access, particularly since they knew our ages. We lost at least three days of our vacation to these problems. The owners deserve far better management.

We were able to plug in our EV and have it 100% for the trip home. There are big potted plants and artwork everywhere. It's such a special place and we'll definitely be returning.

For our $1200 weekend were we very disappointed. When we asked the Spa manager and the hotel staff about the noise they said there had not been any complaints---but on this site I see several citing the issues, so I am sure were have not been the only guests dissatisfied. We have rented the Sunset suite many times, and were always pleased by the ambience and views. But we will not be returning to Overlook Lodge.

First, Katy is a valuable employee for OOV. She was on top of everything in the reservation process…read moreand helpful when things went sideways. We arrived after 4:00pm, as instructed. The lockbox was empty - no key. I phoned the office in Yachats and left a message. No response. I called ten minutes later and left another message. No response. I seriously have to pee by this time after our 3 hour drive. It was also getting chilly and the website said the office closed at 5:00pm. Both of my calls were made before that. I remembered I had corresponded with Katy and located the email. I called her number and she answered right away. I explained the sitch and she said the manager just saw the message and was on his way from home to the office to get the spare key. She estimated about ten minutes and he'd be at the rental. Here's where it gets strange. About 25 mins later, the manager shows up, exits his car, didn't introduce himself, tells us the key is probably sitting inside, and has a screw driver in his hand. "No spare key?" I ask. "No, but I have a solution." He then starts to try to Jimmy the door lock. I'm thinking 2 things: 1. So we'll be in a house without a lockable front door? 2. How does one Jimmy a deadbolt? Fatigue, bladder rebellion, and chillier winds made me say, "I don't think that's going to work and you're going to ruin your door. We'll just take a refund and find a motel in Newport. He pulls a set of keys out of his pocket and says there's a rental just down the road we could use. And it's a better one. Ok, I always appreciate it when a person tries to make things right. The driveway into the property had multiple mud holes and going in I bottomed my car a bunch of times. We had to maneuver those holes every time we went out and came back. The house was bigger. We could use the hot tub, but the original rental didn't have one so none of us had bathing suits. The house was clean but it seemed it hadn't been readied for guests. There were few towels and 5 of us (in a house that was for 8) almost ran out of toilet paper. The table cloth had recent juice stains on(we just took it off), and the dishwasher was full of clean dishes. We unloaded so we could use it. I know people have bad days and things can go haywire. What concerned me in this experience was: - no response to my calls before closing time - no spare key - a screw driver to Jimmy a lock and a dead bolt? - having to ask for a refund to trigger the offer of the other place - not aware of readiness status of the place offered Hopefully this was a Murphy's Law one off crazy day. If not, OOV needs improvement.

I've had no…read moreproblems with them. they're very good at what they do. the houses have been very clean and mostly comfortable. the last house we rented, however, had a problem that I mentioned in my review. the floors are tiled but the house is older and the floors weren't exactly level. two of the tiles stuck out a bit and I tripped on them and did a face plant. I cut my lip, which isn't serious but when I put that fact in my review ( I thought for safety , I should mention it to other renters) they wouldn't print my review. it's been two days and I thought maybe they'd post it, but they removed it. I don't understand why so I posted here.

This place is truly special. The staff is family owned and operated and I've never met more…read morecompetent or caring people. Right off the bat I was impressed with the service. The property is beautifully manicured and if you get a free standing apartment "kitchen" suite (like a one bedroom apartment) than most of them have a great view of the property, ocean or both. There's also a bathtub, fireplace, and little patio! The bed was comfy and I've never slept better--something about waking up to hear the surf and smell the fresh sea breeze I will never get over. Also the frogs will sing you a sweet song to sleep if you listen closely. I've never stayed anywhere more charming. Super short walk away to the waves, the beach, and town is just around the bend (also an easy walk). The pool also has a view of the ocean. So cool. Did I mention dog friendly? FYI. If you notice some difference in reviewers experience I believe it's the difference of the units verses the rooms. The rooms are more retro and though they have nice updates, I highly recommend the kitchen units as opposed to the rooms (I've stayed in both). The units are fantastic and worth the tiny bit extra. The rooms have great decks and patios to a lovely beach view but there is an old funk smell that unless you are a smoker is noticeable-- so do yourself a favor and get a kitchen suite. Your wife can thank me later. :) You'll want to plan to book a few extra days because this place is like a warm hug. It's unlike anything out there these days. You can get a clean room almost anywhere but encountering amazing humans on the road is priceless. Thank you Yachats Inn for making my summer to the coast a lovely and wonderfully memorable stay. I'll be back!

What an incredible oceanfront location but in desperate need of a revamp…read more The rooms unfortunately don't match the beautiful setting. Our standard king was so rundown, with stained and stinky 70's carpet, mismatched 80s furniture, cheap plastic outdoor seats, and a mattress so old and uncomfortable I woke up in pain. The bed had extremely thin sheets and pillows, and a tiny shower you can't move around in. Our bathroom window and sliding glass door didn't close properly and I was praying a Ted Bundy type wasn't cruising the neighborhood. I somehow forgot to take pics but their images on their website are pretty accurate. The price was great at just over $120 on a busy July holiday weekend, and we also had direct access to the beach right out front. The pool and hot tub also provided ocean views. The entire property can use a lot of TLC. I love older and cozy spaces, but this place deserves a refresh to match its spectacular location. Nothing glamorous, it just needs to be functional, comfortable, and safe. 2.5 stars if I could.

While the room we stayed in (Alsea) was large, well lit, and charming, we were without hot water…read morefor the entire stay. When we reached out to Vacasa for help they first asked us to try the breaker box, or relight the water heater but couldn't tell me where either of them were, thereby asking me to wander around and through this motel - peeking in closets and rooms - to find them. When I refused they said they would contact a local person for assistance. No one ever came. No one contacted us. I even reached out to corporate and no one came. No one contacted us. So despite a pretty room and clean linens they get 2 stars because hot water is kind of a necessity in a hotel. Further, they didn't offer a discount for their failure to provide the hot water during our 5 night stay. Other things to know; The images don't show that highway 101 runs between this building and the beach. Nor do they show that the balconies with the rooms are shared and not private. The coffee pot is a Kuerig and they only provide 4 pods. Bring your own. There are two mugs, two metal cups, two glass cups, and a handful of silverware, a microwave, and a mini-fridge. The only place to wash anything is in the bathroom. The view is stunning and you can hear the ocean from your room if you leave the door cracked. I really wish I could have given a better review but the lack of local support for this listing means any problems you have are yours to deal with and frankly, that is not what I am paying for. EDIT: The management company responded after my review and offered a partial refund per day for the lack of the hot water. It was a fair offer and the decent thing to do. So I'm increasing the review to three stars because they did respond and try to make things right. However, I still think it's important for guests to know there isn't anyone local to manage these issues quickly if they arise.

First thing is the smell then the obvious visuals come into focus. Floors have NEVER been refurbished in over 4 years that I can tell the floors looked new. "DOG FRIENDLY" to me means go someplace else. Rug at front door chewed, couch must be the dog-bed because it STUNK! Walls are hideous. Water marks running above the sliding glass doors, bathroom water damage above/behind the toilet and behind the sink faucet. Wall scuffs from rocking chair and stupid living room end tables substituting for bedside tables (covered w/ white dog fur...as well as under the bed w/ debris not well vacuumed before we arrived). CAKED dust coming from the ac/heat unit & bathroom ceiling fan. Old room heaters (bathroom and main room) are rusty and really unappealing. Bed- too soft!!! No bed skirt and the sheets were stained w/ brown marks (I was pretty disgusted and wished I had my silk sleeping bag), ugly old bed linens....please pretend like your rentals are an investment that people invest in (like me) because at over 150 a night (OFF SEASON) people will expect very nice accommodations...not just a lovely view and convenient location in town. Coffee tables are not side tables- get a decent size table. TV wands are not properly marked and the mute button doesn't work! CLEAN them....they were really nasty dirty. Move the couch to the opposite side of the room, move the tv screen to the opposite wall so that you can actually get a better view from bed if one is wanting to watch before bed. The Kerig coffee machine....GROSS! Who uses those? Not us. All we wanted was a hot pot at the very least to brew QUALITY coffee without the dangers of mold in the coffee maker which Kerigs are INFAMOUS for harboring! We will not use them. This was my birthday weekend. I'm super disappointed we spent it in such a gross place!!! I will MAKE SURE our next visit will be better investigated before making a overnight reservation someplace.
