Hey! This is a great place! We love the décor! The walk to the beach is beautiful (love the carved mushrooms!). We also drove to Lake Quinault and visited the Lodge gift shop ad had lunch. Lake Quinault has some great hikes, too… easy short ones and difficult ones. We visited the largest sitka spruce, which was really easy to get to… and then we went to the north side of the lake and hiked up to the largest western red cedar in the world. The hike was short but steep and well worth it! Other visitors here should go see it. You can walk into the tree… It’s so big! Anyhow, we will definitely be back. Many thanks for the beautiful, relaxing place to stay!

July 28 – August 4, 2007
Thank you so much for the fantastic, relaxing week in your beautiful cottage. We loved everything about your Seastar cottage; it is comfy, cozy and beautifully decorated. Our week here was filled with making many happy memories with family and friends. Whether we were walking on the beach, jumping the waves, skin-boarding, playing volleyball, going on a walk around Seabrook, playing badminton, going on a family bike ride, catching steelhead in the Humptulup River, watching the sunsets, roasting marshmallows in the bonfire, reading Harry Potter books, driving to Lake Quinault & hiking to the largest western red cedar, playing Runoff, taking a nap, flying a kite, skipping stones in the ocean, we always looked forward to coming back to SeaStar and sharing a meal around the dinner table. We all enjoyed ourselves immensely.
Thanks again

I love this cottage! My stay was very comfy and fun. Perfect for kids. Plenty of cooking utensils to make dinner with, kid friendly. Plenty of bathrooms and washer and dryer. The houses are so nice to look at when you go for walks and the park is very nice too. I would come again for sure. Thank you
Great home! Beautiful town! Good Times! Our new Washington coast getaway. Loved it!

Thanks for sharing your house with us. We loved it. Our boys especially loved the toys. The digger outside the front of the house was an added bonus for our 18-month-old. He must’ve said “didar” 1000 times.
We hope to come back soon!

We had a great time at your home. It was interesting to watch all the construction taking place and walking around after hours to see the days work.
We really enjoyed your kitchen. We were able to fix many great meals.
The kids really enjoyed the toys and the outdoor area.
We hope to come back again soon.

Upon walking into the house, all I could say was wow! We felt “welcomed” and at home right away!
The kitchen is so well stocked, the beds are all so comfy, the washer and dryer convenient, and the BIG TV was a hit! There are so many wonderful things to be said about the house!
This is the place to stay if vacationing with children! My kids are 6,3,3, and 2 and they had as much fun ~ if not more! The highchair and crib made life much easier too!
We came back to Seabrook for a few days for a change and to take our minds off Daddy deploying to Iraq. It worked! We had so much fun exploring the beach, hiking the rainforest, and cuddling down every evening for movie time!
Thank you for sharing your home! WE hope to come back again!

Thank you for letting us stay in your beautiful home our boys loved the bunk beds and toys. The weather was beautiful our first day, and the last day there was a huge wind storm where the power went out. There are so many windows, though, that there was enough light in the morning to play games and watch the storm. Thank you for the wonderful stay. The beds were comfortable and the furnishings excellent!

What a beautiful place to get away for the weekend. My husband and I both wish we could extend our stay!
Your home is lovely and provided every possible amenity for a fantastic weekend. Our favorite was watching the sunrise while sipping coffee on the front porch.
We will be back and look forward to bringing our children with us next time.
Thanks!!

Our family had such a fantastic weekend at Seabrook! What a darling community. We will definitely come back again soon. The SeaStar cottage was stocked with every possible amenity we could ever need. The décor is so cozy and welcoming – we felt as though we were living in a Pottery Barn catalog! The guys loved the wonderful TV’s – we watched lots of football! The kids were fully-entertained by all the wonderful toys and books. We got just about every type of weather this weekend. Our first day was gorgeous blue skies and we spent the day digging at the beach. The next day we got to experience lots of beautiful, white SNOW that blanketed everything. We even made a giant snowman at the park! And our last day here we got to experience typical winter rainstorms at the Washington coast.
Seabrook definitely will be a place the kids are asking about coming back to. We look forward to the summertime when we can enjoy the fire pits and bicycles. We look forward to seeing what Seabrook is becoming! Thanks for giving us a great place to create family memories. Can’t wait to come back very, very soon!!

Thank you for allowing us to stay in your beautiful cottage. WE love the décor and especially the bunk beds. We had an awesome stay, it was a little chilly but sunny as well. WE played lots of games and watched a ton of movies (we liked your selection as well). We have a Little Reddy on the way and we can’t wait to bring him here! The bikes were great as well (hope you don’t mind we had to lower the seat on the pink one). We went on lots of walks and plenty of bike rides. The beach was wonderful, we met a cute dog named Molly and her owner. We also drove into Pacific Beach, to the little stores and café, it was very cute. We definitely liked the toys and books you had throughout the house! So again, thank you for letting us stay, we had a great time and will DEFINITELY come back!

Thank you so much for inviting me and our crazy three kids to your beautiful beach cottage. We will be back as we had so much fun.
Liam our 5 year old loved the bunk beds and all the games. But most of all he loved playing with Ian. Reilly 3 ½ enjoyed cooking with me in your kitchen and Natalie 21 months enjoyed her new found freedom with the stairs!
Besides the battery on my car dying, loosing my cell phone and the hail we had the first day, we had a blast. I loved relaxing in the hot tub with a glass of wine and unwinding. I loved the comfy king bed all to myself! I loved the smell of the ocean. I loved the way I just felt at home here.
As the smell of brownies fill the air on our last night here… I am longing to feed these rug rats and get them off to bed for some mommy time!
Thanks for letting us join you for this weekend getaway. We hope you were able to relax! We love you and love this place!
Love bunches,
Jess, Liam, Reilly, and Natalie

Hello,
Thank you so very much for the use of your beautiful house. WE unfortunately were here for only 3 days, and didn’t want to leave. The hot tub was a true god send. The wonderful pillow top beds and down comforters were so warm and comfy you didn’t ever want to get up. We loved the closeness of the beach. Once the rest of the houses in the area are completed it will be a wonderfully beautiful community. Thank you again for the opportunity to use your wonderful hide-a-way.

We had a lovely, restful spring break here in SeaStar cottage in Seabrook. Lots of weather! Snow, sleet, rain and even sunshine – enough for walks on the beach. Our 13 year old even went skin boarding in the freezing Pacific!
Your beach house is perfect. Loved the soothing colors and cozy couches and rest full beds. Thank you for making it such a welcoming home away from home!

This place is amazing! I can’t believe how well this place is put together. I love going down to the beach. The next people to come here should go to the beach and look for sand dollars. There’s a ton. I can’t wait to come back in November!
Thanks a lot,

This place is so cute!! We met Charlie at the community fire pit which was amazing. He’s the next 7 year old Broadway star/comedian/author/ whatever else Charlie can do. If you have someone under 100 pounds, tow them on a bike cause it’s an EXTREME workout and good for the thighs. Hope to come back soon because this place is very nice.

My family had a blast staying at your lovely SeaStar home. My two boys 8 and 3 years of age really enjoyed all your board games and especially the Wii! Your home had everything we needed to make our vacation getaway a relaxing time together as a a family.
I enjoyed riding my little guy around on the bike.
The high beach was so beautiful and just filled with sand dollars. My husband enjoyed playing ping-pong with his dad, while I really enjoyed your lovely Jacuzzi.
Thanks for thinking about all the extra’s you have to offer at your house. It really made our stay very easy and relaxing.
We all felt like we were staying in a 5 star luxury mansion!
We came here to Seabrook for getaway from Alaska. Daddy is deployed on a USCG Buoy Tender. He is always out-to sea!
Sharing family memories with grandparents and delicious meals together means so much.
I just loved your décor and sea life theme through-out your home. I loved the colors you chose for living room. Your home was very easy to keep clean.
Thank you for opening up your beach home to us. Family summer vacations are so important and without your help we wouldn’t be here.
We are looking forward to coming back next year.
Thanks again

Wonderful full moon! What a great find this SeaStar cottage is! A sister and her 2 brothers, plus spouses enjoyed the comfortable, lovely appointed retreat! We came to dig clams and enjoyed the hose and outside shower. The fireplace was wonderful! The fire pit was full of water – needs a drain. The hot tub was so nice and the weather cooperated! We all had a great time and will come again. The décor was so “SeaStar” and the colors pleasing!
Only thing we missed was a hand mixer. The beds were super comfy too. All in all a wonderful stay in your lovely home.

Another great week at SeaStar!! They say time slows down at the beach but the week went too fast. Interesting to see the changes since our last visit in October 2007.
Our time at the beach was great and we had sun everyday. Good beach-combing and kite flying and lots of sand play for the grandkids. This year we brought a new grandson for his 1st visit of many we hope.
Good times, good food, good family time.
Till next time,

A wonderful 4th of July weekend at Seabrook. This is our fourth time to stay in this lovely village and your beautiful SeaStar home is tops! So family friendly and offers something for everyone. The adults played Wii and used the hot tub. The kids loved the toys, games, ping pong, bikes and roasting marshmallows at the fire pit.
Thank you for sharing your home with us.

August 25 – August 28, 2009
Thank you so much for the last minute reservation. We had a wonderful time. This is our second August trip to Seabrook and we’ve decided it should be an annual tradition! We think four nights is the sweet spot. Three just isn’t enough.
The king bed is so comfortable it was hard to get up each day. Only the draw of family fun, the beach and my book got me going.
Our son fell in love with the Hardy boys, as predicted.
Your home is lovely and perfectly suited. We enjoyed the fire pit, bikes, hot tub and grill. Sadly, the Wii wasn’t working. We brought our bike trailer then saw you had one! You should add it to your advertising. Thanks for a terrific stay!
