Alpine Chalets

We stayed here for 4 nights so we could enjoy the surfing beach at otter rock.
The Good: Centrally located between Lincoln City and Newport, walking access to beach, dog-​friendly, affordable
The Bad: Extremely dirty, in fact it was obvious that the sheets had not been washed (smelly, dog hairs), and many areas of the cabin were covered in a thick layer of dust, along with some random items left behind by the previous guests. The shower stall floor was slippery (moldy), and the kitchen definitely needed a wipe-​down to say the least. The couch needs replacing, completely bagged out and covered in random (crusty) stains. Oh, and there are mice (found droppings on floor, and the day after on the kitchen counter), so food must be covered at all times. Also, the layout is poor for multiple people sharing a cabin, as the full bathroom is ensuite to the main bedroom on the main floor which makes it inconvenient for bathroom/​shower access (we were staying as a group of friends).
If you go knowing what to expect it may not be too bad, but I definitely won’t be returning.

I’m not a picky person about my hotels or motels! But this place is disgusting! We got #10 and it was covered in black mold! The beams inside on the A-​frame are covered is cobwebs and dust! The place is not that high no excuses why it can’t be dusted! The smell was so bad from the mold we got massive headaches and coughed in our first hour! We had to get out! We couldn’t stay! Took hours to get a hold of Vacasa! We are still waiting on our refund!

Last year I would have given it 4 stars. This year I’m giving you a warning.
The Good:
Beautiful location and very friendly staff. The property is well kept. Short walk to an amazing, not busy area of the beach. On the walk to the beach there is a campfire/​picnic are with great views. It is really nice. Quick Drive to newport, 20 mins to Lincoln city and a quick drive to the Devils Punch Bowl, which is an amazing view. Cute little suites to rent at an affordable price. For us, this place was perfect.
The Bad:
They got a new bed in the suite we rented this/​last year… they replaced the old bed with a Twin. A fricking twin. for two adults. Are you kidding me? So all this week either my wife or myself have been getting up ½ way through the night to go to the couch. That is not how we like to do things. We like to cuddle but not like sardines. Very disappointed, they couldn’t even spring for a double?
Small complaint, the wifi sucks. We are usually out surfing or exploring, but when you are trying to l look something up, it will take a while. Hell, it took Unilocal like 10 minutes to load so I could write this review before checking out.
The Bad, oh it’s Bad:
The entire parking area and driveway up to the Chalets stinks horribly of human fece. So bad you can Literally taste human shit every time you walk to your car, or are coming back to the place you spent good money to rent. I figured it was a septic issue.
I called the property management company, they did nothing to fix it or make me feel taken care of, they simply said «we are sorry to hear that sir we will put a note on your file» … Thanks, a note on my file will definitely help me NOT vomit in my mouth every time I walk outside.
It’s been 3 days, no one has showed up to fix the issue. No one from the management company has called to see how things are going. Clearly, since they have my money, they no longer care.
Very disappointed.
every year. Let’s hope they get on it.

This is the perfect place for people who like to surf. It has great access to a beach with some awesome waves. The beach stretches on for miles and allowed for us to enjoy some great walks in the surf. The cabin itself was a little old and had a musky smell to it, but that is to be expected from structures that are a little aged. A fresh coat of paint may help with that. Otherwise, we enjoyed a great romantic weekend in our chalet.

Maybe it was a nice place to stay in the 60s. For three nights our card was charged over $ 500. It was in SERIOUS need of a deep cleaning. There was dirt in the corners on the floor and the top of the fan hadn’t been dusted in a VERY long time. We had 5 adults and two kids. We called the Vacasa Rental phone number to ask for more towels our second night and we never got them. 7 people with four towels!?! No dishwasher, tiny stove, no laundry on site. The interior is covered in wood wall paneling. It felt more like a jail then a vacation rental. The hike to the beach was long and steep. We were under the impression it was beach front and IT IS NOT! Won’t ever stay here again. We were in number 10 and our family was in number 3. They had a dishwasher and it was bigger, but they both needed cleaned and some maint done to them. Gross gross gross. Only pluses were great sheets and pillows and the guy who managed the place kept the scruf from the beach out. I think the main problem is that it is managed by a big property mgmt company and once they have your money they don’t care how your stay is. Oh and the picnic area was nice. Save your money and find something cleaned and on the beach!

Great place if you have children or if you have pets. They are fun! There is a short hike/​walk to the beach but you can wake up and look outside and see and hear the waves from the ocean. A little on the spendy side but I would definitely come back.

I stayed here back in July… I am just now writing this review because it took them THIS long to sort out the bill. I went with a large group who had booked multiple chalets. The chalets are super tiny, don’t let there pictures fool you. The «separate bedrooms» in the lofts don’t even have doors so don’t expect any privacy. Rooms were not cleaned during our week long stay (with 6 people crammed into a very small space since they claimed there were 3 bedrooms) and we were unable to get clean towels or linens. One of the kids in our group wet the bed and we had to go to town to clean the sheets at a laundrymat.
On top of all this, they totally screwed up all our reservations. No one is on site for checkin and calling in they had no idea who we were and where we were staying. Some cabins had been double booked. They refused to tell me a charge for the stay, I called several times and they didn’t return my call. So I gave up. 4 months later they put a $ 1900 charge on my card I gave them to hold the reservation… without any notice or confirmation or bill or AUTHORIZATION FROM ME. And they screwed up and charged me for two cabins when I only had one.
They kinda have apologized and blamed it on management changing. They are now managed by a huge company that doesn’t give a care about your stay or providing good service. Yes, they are dirt cheap to stay at… but you get what you pay for.
Oh, and their wifi is so slow it’s practically useless. The beach is a fairly difficult walk (grandma couldn’t do it alone) and was constantly windy. The whale watching tour near by in Depoe Bay was the roughest boat ride I’ve ever been on… several people in our group got sick. I know that’s not the cabin’s fault, but my point is there is literally nothing else to do within a short drive. Just stay some where else.

My pups and I really enjoyed staying at these chalets. The location is perfectly-​centrally located. It is aprx 900 ft from Molokai Beach with a nice picnic area right in front with a huge fire pit (they provide the freshly cut wood).
The owners are super dog friendly to responsible dog owners. There is a beautiful view of the sunrises and sunsets if you don’t feel like walking 900 feet to the beach.
Beds and décor are dated but ok… great restaurants within 3 miles. Plus you have access to dvd’s
