Great home & Location
Reviewed by Becky on 10/23/2011

This home was exactly what I had hoped for in location and size for a "Celebration of Life" gathering. It was close to shopping, restuarants, beach,and wharf. It was enjoyable to just park the car and walk. We had friends from various locations with multiple cars. Public parking at that time of year was ample & close. The parking permit at the house worked well to load and unload. The neighbors were friendly & helpful. It was very quiet. The enclosed patio area was all ours since no one was renting the unit behind. The riverfront area was not exactly behind the house but down the walkway with a gate through the patio. It was enjoyed by all. The kitchen area could have been a little cleaner, some dishes needed to be washed before use. Some guests had a little trouble with the way the faucets worked in the bathrooms. But that was not bothersome. I would have liked to see a few more cleaning products & trash bags (only 1) left for use. I had a full house, so I did bring extra supplies for the bathrooms and kitchen. A few items did not work when we arrive and maintenance quickly took care of the issues and also helped us with the bar-b-que. We had a very relaxing and great time. The location was perfect for us. We enjoyed all of the outside areas including the front porch. The World Series playoffs were in process so the guys enjoyed the big screen also. Reservations and planning were easy. I enjoyed working with Louise to make this special celebration of my husband's life perfect. We really enjoyed it. Thank you for the opportunity to rent this vacation home.

No fuss no muss...check in, check out...easy. Found everything we needed...in the house as well as in the area. Very nice. We had a great time. The dishwasher was no big deal...open the oven door ...much better.

The perfect house for a bride and her bridal party
Reviewed by Jessica on 10/9/2011

Can't say enough amazing things about this house. It had such a lovely feel to it. 7 girls all getting ready for a wedding had plenty of room to run around and plenty of room for all of our clothes! You can't get much better as far as location. The creekside patio was just lovely and when we had just a few questions or concerns...Beach House Rentals assisted us as if they were standing by! Very professional and friendly company that never makes you feel like you're wasting their time no matter what. I highly recommend both the company (Louise is awesome!) and this lovely home.

memories are made of this
Reviewed by Grandma on 7/7/2011

We rented this lovely home for 4 nights. We had my two daughters and their husbands and one 4 month old baby. The place was perfect. We never had to get in our car, great coffee shop around the corner for breakfasts, wonderful restaurants within 5 minute walk for lunches and dinners. I looked up one day and was watching my two son in laws tossing frisbee on the beach, one daughter and I were playing paddle ball, and my other daughter was holding her baby. Picture perfect, life does not get better than this. Last day, kids gone, friends dropped down, it rained, no problem. We talked, laughed, had lunch on a restaurant on the warf, then watched a movie I had brought, kicked back, enjoyed, and later drove home. The point being, sun, rain, friends, family, grown, babies, it doesn't matter. Anyone can enjoy this place. it will be our destination of choice in Capitola for years to come. Happy vibes in this place.

We all loved the house
Reviewed by jim on 6/22/2011

We all loved the Riverview house. It was nicely appointed, well stocked with everything we needed. It was spacious enough for all of us to coexist nicely. The only complaint is the dishwasher which doesn't work well at all. Can't open the dishwasher door enough to get dishes in an out and even after that, it just didn't clean. But that is only the very mildest of inconveniences in an otherwise really great house. We didn't realize how pleasant the river-fronted patio would be, but it was truly sooo relaxing. Even though we were there on a very crowded weekend, we were out of the frenzy just enough. Can't say enough good things about the location and the house itself. Parking was tolerable, it was just as described..

excellent home and location, fit our needs
Reviewed by RMCKIERN on 5/6/2011

This home was layed out well for family with ample rooms. The river setting was a great place to meet and visit. The location is excellent and provide close proximity to the village without the noise. The only issue is parking which is an issue for the whole city not just this property. Thanks Bob McKiernan

Great Location for Capitola
Reviewed by Can't get enough of the beach! on 4/27/2011

The ups: We were a few steps from the village and beach. The house had 5 bedrooms great for kids. The house was clean. The downs: Parking parking parking was a pain. The living area was not very big for a 5 bedroom house. We had trouble with our reservation which made our stay at this home shorter then we had planned. No private outdoor area.

Great stay, despite minor inconveniences
Reviewed by Sarah on 3/19/2011

This house is in an excellent location, easy to walk to anywhere you'd like to get to in Capitola! The sleeping accommodations were very nice and kept 9 of us very comfortable. The parking wasn't a huge issue for us, though only one car can park in front of the building. Additional parking was a 5 minute walk for us. Our only drawback to this house was the kitchen. The dishwasher doesn't open all the way due to the large size of the newer oven. The knives were terrible for prepping food, and we ran out of dishwasher detergent on our last night there - had to do the rest of the dishes that night and all the next morning by hand. Also, the toilet paper holder in one of the bathrooms falls apart when you pull the roll, so is basically useless. Again, I would like to emphasize that these were minor inconveniences, relative to the quality of the rest of our stay. Even so, fixing some of these issues (TP holder, knife sharpening, detergent) should be relatively easy to do and would make the stay much nicer. On a very positive note, the outdoor patio bordering the river is lovely in nice weather.

Great location
Reviewed by Chris Becker on 12/9/2010

This property had a great centralized location in Capitola. There was plenty of room for our family of 4 adults and 3 adult children. When we arrived, there was dirty laundry stacked in the living room from the previous occupants. Also, the bathrooms could have been cleaner. We appreciated beach house rental staff showing up and taking care of this. Also appreciated the extra parking pass that was provided. The gas stove in one of the upstairs bedrooms never worked and the stove in the living room stopped working the day before we left. The pocket door to the left of the entrance kept falling off its track . The living room furniture was stained and dirty--needs a good cleaning. The carpet in the dining area was a safety hazzard and after several people tripped, we finally rolled it up. The coffee pot was a puzzle and we had to press the button 3X for each pot of coffee that we made. All this being said, we believe that these "complaints" are easily remedied and we would recommend this property to friends.

A good weekend in Capatola

Great time had by our family at a nephew's wedding. The home was really that---everyone found a place to fit, it was clean and a good place to wind down. We'd do it all over again. Thanks Tom

Great weekend getaway
Reviewed by ec95828 on 10/6/2010

This was a great house! Everything is so close, that once we parked the car, we didn't use it until we left. Street parking is the only downfall of this property but the location made up for it. We are already planning a return trip to this home!

Riverview Comfort

Great location, clean, comfortable, great size for large family, however, parking availability is a negative.

Very clean, comfortable and homey
Reviewed by Kris on 7/17/2010

We had 8 people, 4 generations, from 5 to 87 and this house accomodated all nicely. My 87 year old mother enjoyed sitting on the patio by the river and chatting with folks passing by, The kids and grandkids loved the short walk to the beach. There was a little grocery, a coffee shop and many restarants and shops within a short walk .We enjoyed Zola's, Gayles bakery, and the place at the end of the pier that plays music on the balcony. We used the large lot behind the police station which is 2 blocks away for the extra cars and that wasn't to bad. After walking all over town, I didnt see any place I would rather stay. The house was slightly removed so was quiet, but a short walk to everything! Loved it.

An early Mother's Day
Reviewed by Breezy on 5/12/2010

I had the best vacation ever with my children the days that we spent in this home in Capitola. The house was wonderful, cheerful and bright. It had everything you might possible need and an outdoor shower to wash the sand off the kids before entering the house. My family of 12 had plenty of room, with each family enjoying their own comfortable bed and the showers were great! Not only did we enjoy the home, but the backyard where we barbecued and drank coffee by the river. Days were spent going back and forth to the beach, less than 1/2 a block away. We want to stay again next year. I highly recommend this home.

charming house with personality
Reviewed by vacation family on 4/7/2010

8 of us (2 families) shared the house for 4 days -- it has charm, a great location (near enough to stores to walk out to get coffee and pastries in the AM, far enough away to have quiet). The garden on the river is a real plus -- we had a cozy fire in the fire pit one night as we ate dinner outdoors. The place had enough room (and plates and towells,etc), and we were delighted with the whole setup. We did have two cars, so had to put one at the (expensive) public parking lot in town ($20 a day), but the lot was a 3 minute walk and quite convenient. The other car we parked right on the street with the "parking pass" provided. We were very very happy with the house.

Comfy hideaway!
Reviewed by Oregon Refugees on 12/22/2009

This was a perfectly charming cottage that comfortably slept all eight of us. The service we received from our agent was always quick and courteous. The location of the house was perfect. We parked our car once and walked everywhere we needed for the next three days. The amenities were great. Although the living room video hook ups are a bit confusing. The only real problem was loading the dishwasher. As you can imagine with 8 people we used it a lot. It was really tough to load because of its location and the way it is blocked by the oven. The location of the house is perfect. We had a fun and relaxing stay. We are hoping to do it again next year!
