Had a great birthday weekend! Weather was awesome! Dunes were great. Went to Mamma Mia's for Italian birthday dinner. The owner sang happy birthday to me, then sat & talked to us. He's super nice This was the second time having dinner there & the pasta is handmade by him. We love this place, so quit & peacefull. Loved looking out on the lake in the AM & seeing the mist coming off.

Adam & Eve, eat your heart out. This place is paradise. the devil kept his apple to himself and stayed out of here. Everything was perfect. thank you for letting us stay here I am tired of sunshine and fires in California. I am moving out here. The scenery here and everywhere we went is unreal.

2nd time this year! Thanks for the short notice. Had a great time riding housefall/spinreal. Wish we had another day. Brought my brother and Sis in law this time and 2 friends who always come with us. It was an adult weekend and the end of our vacation. Nice way to end it. Back to  work tomorrow.

Kaughmans
Tualatin, OR

A very lovely home. Thank you so much for letting us enjoy it. Our 3 daughters actually got to see each other for 3 days. They and their families live so far from each other. We were here together for my 81st birthday. We enjoyed seeing places we used to bring our young family to years ago. A little reminiscing as we drove around Lakeside, Sunset Beach, and Whiskey Run Beach. Thank you so much.
Seely
Marysville, WA

Thank you so much. We had a wonderful time. I finally got my boat ride around the lake then proceeded to fall off the dock. But the best thing nobody had a camera so there's no proof. Please destroy this after reading. Was surprised ti was too warm to really use the fireplace much. Love exploring out here. Our Grand Daughter caught many fish off the dock.
Mary and Jerry
Tampa, FL

Such a lovely home and so much to do, We just didn't have enough time. We fished and caught crappie, perch and trout. Went to Shore Acres, Simpson Park and Sunset Bay. Did some ATVing and loved everything about staying here. We hope to come back and stay longer next time.

What a beautiful and peaceful place! We had such a fulfilling time here and my daughters kept saying it was "awesome" here. My only regret, if I had one, was in staying only four days.

Very, Very peaceful place. The place was perfect for our kids and our little pug! We loved the fenced yard, wooded area (kids loved the slugs) and the lake. Thank you so much.

Mike and Linda
Dixon, CA

Our five day stay was great, we rode the dunes for days, fished Tenmile lake and went gold prospecting south of here on the Sixes River. the house is everything you could want and more. We had a very, very good time. I'm the Grandpa and my two grandsons with me are thirteen and fourteen and this is our boys outing. We started this when the youngest was three years old and try to do it every summer. This trip coming here was one of the best and we will not forget the memories of this place and events.
Steve, Chandler, Zachary, Blaylock
Wilsonville, OR

What a fantastic way to start and end the day-looking out at the lake! Perfect setting! We have enjoyed this part of the coast - the Umpqua Discovery Center in Reedsport was a new find for us- great exhibits. And we have always loved Shoreacres and Sunset Bay. Thanks for having such a nice place available.

Gregg & Nancy
Auburn, WA

Thank youfor sharing your wonderful cabin with us! We had a great time fishing. However, "the big one" eluded our efforts this time around. Of course staying up until 1:00 AM watching the Olympics each night probably didn't help our fishing efforts. Thank you again.
The Glegg Family

We stayed in the cabin for almost two weeks and enjoyed it enormously. Fishing was excellent in the lake. We also enjoyed going to the coast for hiking and crabbing. Thank you.
The Romanovskys

Another fantastic time at your place! The fishing was better than ever (My boys claim 29). The weather was awesome, so we were able to ride all day and then come back here and relax. Such a great time with our kids(7,9 + 15 yrs). Great memories for all.

We had such a nice time a tour lakeside home!! It is very beautiful, peaceful and relaxing here. Our two dogs had so much fun swimming in the lake. They also spent a lot of time playing on the lawn and snoozing in the sun. This house is really comfortable and we look forward to coming back.
Kendra, Dennis, Blue and Junior
Portland, OR

Our fifth trip and we love the new fence and washer and dryer! The kids loved the bunkhouse. We will be back!
Kevin and Stephanie
Springfield, OR

We found the house to be much more than we expected. We had a blast riding around in the jeep my brother brought. My husband and I took the boat out and then we drifted back to the dock ans started catching fish right and left the rest of the day. He had a blast. It was hard to get my husband away from the dock to leave. Thanks so much.
Bob, Jody, Tobi, Bob
Portland, OR

Really enjoyed the cottage + lake. The fishing was slow, but the 28 inch rainbow trout I caught off the dock is the largest I have ever caught! Will email a pic after I download my camera. Hope to come back again.

We loved staying in the home! We had a great campfire in the ring which made it feel like camping but then got to come back into a clean, comfortable bed. We enjoyed being so close to the dunes, I even rowed over to the dunes that touch the lake for a beautiful view of spinreel. Thank you for providing a wonderful coastal retreat.

Thank you for letting us use your house! It's a very nice & peaceful setting. We had a great 4 days with ATV riding, feeding the ducks & celebrating our husbands birthdays. We'll be back later this year.

The week went way to fast. The birding was great on the first couple of rainy days. The dunes were great, both on ATV and foot. The boys enjoyed themselves. They also discovered swimming in April when the water is 50˚F is probably not the smartest move, even for $5. The house was cozy and the location excellent. Thanks again.

We had a super time. The weather was great all but one day - how lucky for March! Great place to spend our last hurrah before the oldest heads off to school. Thanks.
