We had the best stay here! It truly felt like a home away from home. It was our first family vacation with our two little ones, a toddler and an infant, and it was perfect for them as well. Perfect location and James was so helpful and responsive. Could not have asked for a better experience!

We absolutely adored our stay here! Had a great time with our family, toasted s'mores on the fire pit in the backyard, and had a stress-free time with our family for a potluck. Absolutely worth the time and money, this was a great place to stay whether it was walking to town or walking along Seaside Beach.

This was the perfect place to relax and recoup after some long days of shopping, sightseeing, and beach going. The house is well stocked with mostly everything you need which was helpful for days that we didn't want to go out to eat. The beds were so comfortable and every room was so homey and inviting! James was very responsive with any questions we had and super friendly!

Stayed as a family of six, five adults one child. Space was quiet, excellently appointed with chairs and beach toys available. Everything was as described and the kitchen was well appointed and laid out. Location was perfect for beach and for the town. Neighborhood was very peaceful. Perfect place to relax

Jame's and Mary's place was very spacious, with very comfortable beds and furniture. The kitchen was extremely well equipped and had a Keurig coffee maker with plenty of pods, as well as a nice selection of teas. The interior had cute sea-themed decor. The outdoor area needs a bit of work.
The house is just a few blocks from the beach, and just a hop, skip and a jump to Cannon Beach where we spent time during our stay. The Seaside beach is also very attractive. We enjoyed a hike in Ecola State Park, and spent a few hours its beautiful Indian Beach, just north of Cannon Beach. We learned that, if you want to hang out in this general location, you can find more reasonable accommodations in Seaside than in the increasingly upscale and crowded town of Cannon Beach itself.

Mahalo James and Mary for opening your home to us! This listing was above and beyond what we anticipated! The house was beautiful and perfect amount of space for 4 adults, 1 child and a baby. We enjoyed walking around the Seaside neighborhood. This airb&b was very informative that made our stay incredibly smooth. We were only bummed when we had to leave! We highly recommend this property! Aloha!

We stayed one night at Gaea House while we were in Seaside and had an overall great experience. The location was close to everything and parking onsite was easy. It was a bit of a further walk to the water than expected but I think the tide was out pretty far when we went out. Still within walking distance of the house. The mini fridge with drinks and snacks for purchase was a nice touch as well as having access to rent electric bikes. The house was clean overall. The one king size mattress had some good dips in it from where it had been a bit broken down. I liked having our own individual code on the keypad for check in as well as having substantial directions provided prior to check in which made check in and out easy. Thanks!

We just stayed here for one night but loved the stay! For those who are unclear about layout, there is a half bath on the first floor, then a full bath on the second floor, between two bedrooms. In order to get to that bathroom or either of the bedrooms, you need to walk past the loft (so the loft is not at all private).
The kitchen is large and beautiful and had everything we needed. We also used the grill and enjoyed it!

We very much enjoyed our stay. The beds were so very comfortable. Once everyone hit the pillows, we were out. We were just passing through and checked out a few other places to stay and your place suited all of our needs. From the child's mouth: The internet service was great! And the couch was very comfortable! We will stay again and highly recommend this house to others! Thank you. 🙂

This place was amazing. Very beautiful home. James was an amazing host and responded almost instantly. Plenty of amenities. I will be staying here again when we come back out. Would recommend this house for sure. So close to the beach and broadway street with alot of stuff to do. Very clean and amazing place to stay. Thank you for everything.

My family spends Mother’s Day weekend in Seaside every year. Because our stay at the Gaea House last year was so wonderful, we decided to book it again this year. James is an excellent host and is very responsive to messages and/or requests, and the Gaea House does not disappoint! We have 2 small dogs, and the fenced backyard is the perfect size for them. We dine in for Mother’s Day, so the deck furniture, clean propane grill, and open concept kitchen was perfect. We especially enjoy the quiet neighborhood, proximity to the beach, and of course the Prom - which directs you right to Broadway Street for shopping and dining. The house was absolutely spotless and smelled fresh and clean upon arrival - a pleasant surprise given it is a pet-friendly rental. Plenty of amenities, WiFi, smart TVs, towels, toiletries, and off-street parking for 2 vehicles - perfect! We will continue to consider the Gaea House again next year!

This is such a great and peaceful place to stay! Everything is super thought out and they provide everything you could need! The house was super clean, well stocked, and comfortable. They even have beach chairs, umbrellas, blankets, and wagons to transport everything to the beach. I would definitely love to stay here again on my next trip to Seaside!

I have stayed in many vacation homes over the years and Gaea House is by far the best! James was a wonderful host and the house was fantastic. Very well appointed with literally everything you could think of. From the mini bar to an instant pot in the cupboard, we had everything we needed. This home also had the best water pressure I’ve ever had in a vacation home, it was awesome! The beds were comfortable and the home was super clean. Has a great fenced yard for the dogs if you choose to bring your furry family members. We really enjoyed being able to have a fire in the fire place a couple of the nights we were there, great ambience! A+’experience. Can’t wait to come again!

We had a marvelous experience at Gaea House. James was very responsive and wonderfully friendly. We felt well taken care of. I was surprised by some of the extras - like having an option for filtered water, and a Keurig with everything we needed for morning coffee. Having two king size beds was a plus for our gathering. The location was great with an easy walk to Seaside's beachfront Promenade. We would definitely stay at Gaea House again!

The house was perfect for what we needed. Plenty of space, good seating in the kitchen, and the beds were all quite comfy and appreciated they were kings and a queen. The thoughtful amenities, like a “minibar” garage fridge and electric bikes were fun for the family! We would definitely stay here again.

I thoroughly enjoyed my stay at James's Airbnb property. James was incredibly responsive, helpful, and understanding throughout the booking process and my entire stay. However, one minor issue was the strong smell of bleach in the house, which may bother some guests. Overall, I still highly recommend James as a host for his exceptional hospitality and attentiveness.

James was super helpful as a host—even called us the morning of the Super Bowl to let us know how we could watch the game! The house was a short walk along the river to town and an even shorter walk to the beach. Very convenient to have three big beds! The third bed is not terribly private (you need to walk by it to get to the bathroom from one of the bedrooms), but the walls are solid, so it was very quiet in all three sleeping areas.
It was pouring rain the whole time, but the fire pit and the BBQ on the patio seemed like they'd be nice in clearer weather. The kitchen is nice and big, with a huge island for dining and board games (the cupboard under the island is FULL of games, by the way!), and there's a stocked fridge in the garage that you can buy from like a minibar, if you forgot anything.
We had a great time and will definitely be back!

James was so great at communication. The space was cozy and when we went in it was all lit up and toasty. They had great amenities and little touches. Beds were great, towels were soft, water pressure fantastic, ample coffee =). It was a great space and his hospitality was above and beyond.

We had a great stay at Gaea House! We were there over New Years and the host left us a gift package with sparkling juice and goodies! We loved using the electric bikes. The fenced backyard was great for our fur babies! Would recommend and definitely stay here again! They had everything you need for a beach day!

Wow. This Airbnb was beautiful. It was clean, in a great area and so peaceful. I 10000% would stay here again. Already trying to plan another trip soon. James was great. He sent all the info we needed and then some. The fridge was stocked, the e bikes for rent, the fireplace…this place had everything! Short walks to the beach, 15 minutes from cannon beach. The inside was lovely. Rooms were comfy, as were the beds. Can’t say enough enough good things about this place.

Beautiful house in perfect location for our family vacation. We feel right at home the second we came in. The place is tastefully decorated and has everything we need. The kitchen is well stocked. We were able to walk to downtown Seaside. The boardwalk is just a few blocks away. James is responsive providing us with all the information we need. We definitely would love to come back!

We had a wonderful stay at Gaea House. It was so perfectly appointed with things we didn't think of like beach umbrella, water filter, color coordinated bath towels so we knew whose was whose! There were just a lot of nice touches and instructions are so clear by owner and all over the house. Kitchen had plenty of things to cook with. Perfect for 1-2 families totaling 6. It was just such a great place and again.... the communication was everything. Thank you James!

Such a lovely and comfortable stay for me and my family. Love that this house was pet-friendly!
First of all, I wanted to say how responsive and accommodating James was for my trip. The home was very nice and clean. Thoughtful amenities provided and enjoyed the beach interior decoration! My family and I definitely enjoyed coming back there to relax after a day by the beach. It was awesome having a grill and fire pit to make a nice dinner at the place. 🙂 Self-check in was easy, off-street parking is available, and beach and promenade were at walking distance.
My family and I really enjoyed our stay, and loved this cozy house! Wishing we stayed longer but hoping to be back next time!

Our group found this listing to be exactly as the description - very clean and located in a very walkable neighborhood only several blocks from the beach and the main strip. The space was great for our group and we very much enjoyed our time exploring the neighborhood and nearby restaurants. James was quite proactive, communicative, and helpful. We would easily recommend this listing for a place to spend a weekend or more!

The Gaea House is a great, family friendly location in Seaside. The house is easy to find and a short walk to the Prom, the beach, and downtown. We appreciated the open concept of the house and its large kitchen. It also contains everything you would want in an Airbnb at the beach and more (for example, there were bikes, wagons, and beach chairs). James is also an amazing host and very responsive as well. We enjoyed our stay at the Gaea House and recommend it for families.

We had a great stay at this house! So nice it was pet friendly with a fenced yard. It’s about 2 mins from everything, downtown seaside, Safeway for groceries and the Nike outlet. Also a short walk to the beach and they had a wagon so we were able to pull out 4 year old to the beach.

Gaea house was great! It's in a quiet neighborhood just three blocks from the Prom and the beach. The backyard was tidy and had enough room for the dogs to play and run around
The home itself was clean and included many thoughtful touches, including a sampling of local taffy and other treats. The streaming devices were all easy to use and worked flawlessly, though we spent little time hanging about the house, as the Oregon coast has so much to offer!

This was a great stay - would definitely stay here again. Love the kitchen/dining layout. Our pups loved the fenced backyard, and we really enjoyed the deck - plenty of deck chairs, and the BBQ grill worked great. I can honestly say that this is the first Air BnB with sufficient water pressure in the shower - this was so welcome! The only negative (and definitely not a deal-breaker) was that I had to sleep with windows open due to lack of A/C in the bedrooms, which provided me with a play-by-play soundtrack of a distant neighborhood party through about 3:00am. But hey, when it hits 90 degrees on Mother’s Day weekend, one can expect to hear some celebration! The A/C downstairs works great, by the way. Everything was clean and tidy, worked perfectly, and the host, James, was very accommodating and responsive. Highly recommended!

Great location just a few blocks from the beach as well as restaurants/shops. The place easily accommodated our family of four with a large kitchen/dining area and comfortable couches. The kitchen was well stocked with staples, spices, keurig coffee, half-n-half, etc. I'd highly recommend it.

We enjoyed our stay at James's place at Seaside. The fact that he allowed pets at a reasonable rate, a great fenced yard, easy access to the beach and tons of amenities (a welcome basket, a kitchen with all kinds of needs met) with the house was huge.
That being said, it was hard not to be able to access the NCAA basketball playoffs at the house. Not a deal breaker but disappointing. Previous guests remarked on the temperature and we too found it chilly. No walking around barefoot. There was a single ductless unit downstairs but the tall ceilings made getting the house warmed up a challenge. Perfect location, 3 blocks from the promenade. Thanks again.

Our stay at Gaea House was great. Not expecting the snow and extended our stay. James was very responsive and when we requested additional fire logs, the Instacart shopper delivered more that afternoon along with a host of other goodies! The house is a typical older beach house but comfortable.
