Room was ok, but way overpriced. Reserved the Valentines Package—The room normally cost $140/night and I spent $120 on meals. They charged my card for something another room ordered—hope those other people are happy I paid for their order. They ended up billing me package price “AND” meals. Package price was $233–Bill should have been no more than $270 total with room tax for bed and $90 toward meals—they charged my card $388. Wouldn’t advise their packages—it’s a rip off. The room had no fridge or microwave, and was an ADA room. I seriously doubt I’ll ever stay or eat in another McMenamin’s.

Of the different McMenamins properties that I have stayed at or visited over the years I would have to say that I found this one to be the least interesting in terms of the environment and amenities, unless of course you happen to play golf. Good location near the beach and you can even drive on the local beaches but overall the place lacked what I consider to be the McMenamins vibe. Restaurant was good, especially the bar/restaurant downstairs which was more intimate and the room was nice enough but the views were lacking. It's probably as good a place as any to stay in the area, but nothing special in my opinion. And the staff could be more friendly as well. But at least they were mostly pet-friendly.

We had some serious issues with our stay but they were taken care of in a timely and very good manner. Thank You So Much. The downstairs bar is just so fun. The bartender was great... The staff was great. Thank You So Much. Even if you don't golf wandering around the area is super fun.

My wife and I have travelled to several of the McMenamins hotels in WA state. We like their food and beverages and quirky surroundings. The one thing that has us NOT returning to any of these hotels is their consistently lousy mattresses and pillows. For half the price of this hotel we could go to a Hampton Inn and experience a good-nights rest without the neck and back pain the next morning. Let's hope others feel the same way and you all consider a change.

This hotel and restaurant are definitely priced right. However cute the outside is , this is Not a luxury stop. This is a great town and most of the places to stay are in other beach towns. So this is a great addition to the area.

Eclectic and recreational to boot. Great venue for weddings as are all MM’s and it sits right on the golf course. The rooms are cozy and everything is decorated as always in the McMenamin way with lots of history and art. There is a separate annex building too and a small pub called the Sandlot that’s at the end of the course of either the front or back nine.

We found the staff, particularly at the restaurant to display a "take it or leave it - that's the way we do things here" attitude. Unfortunately we were stuck eating here since all restaurants in Seaside were slammed. The hotel rooms lacked any way to keep our few few food items cold and no way to brew coffee, thereby requiring we waste food and wait until quite late in the morning for a cup. We'll never return.

This was our first time staying at a McMenamins hotel and I'm pretty sure my last. I saw the pictures before we reserved the room but until you actually stay in the hotel you don't really realize how dark the wood is and how "heavy" the rooms are. The morning of our stay we received a call from the hotel advising they had had a "maintenance: issue and was unable to rent the room we originally reserved - but they had a comparable room in the Annex. We were assured it was a large room with a view of the golf course. They did comp us breakfast for the trouble. Check-in took almost 25 minutes. The couple in front of us was having an issue and eventually a manager was called to assist. Normally this wouldn't be an issue but the check-in "booth" was at the front door with little space for people to stand and for other guests to move around you. The issue I had was they failed to mention that in order to see the golf course I had to stand on my tippy toes and lean over a table and chair set and look through one of the smallest windows I've had at a hotel. Also the bed was soooo hard I could not get comfortable. If you stay in the annex ask for the first floor - the windows are much bigger and open more than 3 inches. Also there are no coffee makers in the room - they do set out self serve coffee but not until 8 am (and the restaurant is closed until then also). Luckily for us early risers they did set it out at 7 the Monday we were there saving us a trip to Seaside before breakfast.…

This place is kind of out of town. Pretty golf course and nice hotel. The restaurant is typical McMenamin”s. The food was somewhat average, and they were short staffed due to covid. It was fun to try out this hotel. We just wish the weather would have been better….we sat out at their nice fire pits, but it was still too cold for that too. The bar was nice, and breakfast was good the next morning, it was a relaxing evening staying there, and it is quiet, there is a herd of elk which wander around the neighborhood there, and we encountered them as we headed back to the highway. That was fun.
