Renovated Seaside Cottage, Pet Friendly, Luxury Touches+ 2 Adult Bikes!

1 Queen, Sleeps 2 & Pet Friendly up to 20 lbs.

In the very early days of Seaside, town architect Richard Gibbs and his partner chose to design and build their private cottage in the woods just as Forest Street was beginning to be developed. Way Back is their original and renovated cottage in this heralded beach community. Among the most frequently rented and beloved one-bedroom Seaside cottages over the years, tranquil and private Way Back retains its Seaside architectural authenticity.

Way Back has a new fully upgraded kitchen and just renovated bathroom, two-zone air conditioning, and upgraded soft furnishings throughout plus the recent addition of a compact washer and dryer. A reserved parking place in front of the cottage leads via a timber boardwalk through a shady front garden with outdoor seating for two by the private grill to the spacious furnished front deck. The open-air front deck welcomes you with Adirondack seating for two overlooking your private lush front yard, a perfect location to enjoy your morning coffee or an evening nightcap. Furnishings and artworks have been updated in the ground floor living/dining/kitchen area, while the original timber walls and floors are reminders that inspired architecture and craftsmanship never go out of style. The compact stainless galley kitchen features new appliances, including a fridge/freezer/ice maker, countertop convection oven, four-burner gas cooktop, and a small microwave. The dining space features a compact table that comfortably seats two as the dining area. The living area features new furnishings with two swivel chairs and a new mounted large flat-screen smart TV.

Among the very few pet-friendly rental cottages in Seaside, Way Back is ideal for a couple or solo traveler. Positioned just three houses from the national heritage-listed Seaside Chapel, Way Back provides a private and relaxing connection to the core of Seaside. A stay at Way Back serves as the perfect venue for beach access (a five-minute walk), vibrant town center restaurants and shopping, and wooded trails for hiking and bike exploration.

An easily accessed staircase leads to the upstairs queen bedroom with a Juliette balcony in the treetops. The renovated bathroom features a large walk-in rain shower, heated tile floors, a heated towel rack, and new stone vanity and floors. Recent additions to the bedroom area include a clothes closet and a credenza with ample storage. New outdoor additions to Way Back include a gas BBQ grill, outdoor shower, and refreshed landscaping.

Rentals include high-speed wi-fi, cable TV in both the living room and bedroom, two bicycles, access to swim, fitness and tennis centers, beach pavilion access, and a beach bag of arrival welcome amenities, including wine.
