From the Hermit Crab, stroll down the wooded Sunset Street, to Nedonna Beach where you can hunt for seashells and startfish, watch the seals play in the water, view the tidepool sealife, fish for ocean perch. Back at the Hermit Crab enjoy barbequing on the oversized deck nestled among coastal evergreen trees creating privacy and comfort during hot summer evenings.

Inside you can watch Satellite Dish TV, or VHS & DVD movies from the movie library while others are playing games in the loft: foosball, Nintendo 64, one of several board games.

 Rockaway beach house, September 22, 2008
By Miranda (rapid city, SD)
We had a wonderful time staying at the hermit crab. The house was amazing very clean and neat. The price of the house was awesome compaired to what you would pay for a hotel. Everything was provided for us, and that was very nice. If were ever near the Oregon coast the hermit crab is where we would like to stay again.
 
 Home Away From Home, August 26, 2008
By Jennifer Bergmann (Calgary, Alberta, Canada)
What a great home for our family of 8! Everything we needed and then more. Spices, condiments and even Starbucks coffee to brew fresh each morning. Nintendo, Foosball, DVD s, Beach toys, and books all available for our use. It was wonderful to walk the beach, hunt for shells, watch the waves and then return to our cozy home. The weather was typical, the chowder awesome, and the people very friendly. We would definitely love to go again! The Burtons were a pleasure to book with. From The Bergmann 8

 Hermit Crab at Rockaway, March 3, 2008

This house was clean, new, well equipped in a quiet neighborhood, with easy beach access. A good value and a reasonable, easy to work with owner.
 
 The Perfect Retreat, October 21, 2007
By Noel Miles (Portland Oregon)
We had just moved away from family in Boise Idaho to an apartment in Portland. Thanksgiving was coming up and my family wanted to come to Oregon for the Holidays. Not able to house everyone I started looking for a beach rental. After many hours searching we came across the Hermit Crab. It was perfect, enough games for adults and kids, there was never a dull moment! The kid friendly environment with Bunk Beds and Character table settings to the fort outside, was a seller. The BBQ pit is a great asset for those who want to be one with nature. The area is so beautiful tucked away amongst the trees yet a simple stroll to the beach. We will definitely be back!
 
 Hermit Crab Review, October 3, 2007

A home away from home...A great place to stay with all the amenities...Ideal location, uncrowded beach and close to all that Oregon has to offer...I shall return.
 
 Wonderful place to stay, June 20, 2007
By Colleen Swanson (Brooklyn Center, MN USA)
We had a wonderful time last week at the Hermit Crab. It is a beautiful house and the ocean was awesome. It is convenient to the ocean without being right on it. It was really cool to hear the ocean while we were sitting around the firepit. The house is beautiful and was very clean and well stocked with the essentials. Thank you so much for letting us stay there. The Swansons June 2007
 
 CAN'T WAIT TO GO BACK!!, May 30, 2006
By The Eldridge Family (Central oregon)
We stayed in early May with another family. Between us we had three children under 3. The house was great. So well taken care of and some great amenities. It was perfect for two families because there were bathrooms both upstairs and downstairs and lots of room. It is in a great housing area that is very close to the beach. We really enjoyed walking around the neighborhood and to the beach every day. In fact we already talked with our friends and want to go back in the Fall and try and make this a biannual trip with them. We are recommending the Hermit Crab to all of our friends (just not on the weekends we want to go back!)
 
 Family Fun, May 24, 2006
By The Rose's (St.Paul, OR USA)
A great accomodation for families, and especially those with little children. We were delighted that there were books and games available for our little ones, as well as kid-friendly cups. The short walk to the beach is safe and we loved that it was really quiet and not crowded. I would recommend this vacation home in a heartbeat!
 
By A renter (Aloha, OR USA)

 Our Stay at the Beach House, May 22, 2006
By Brandie Kajino (Vancouver, WA USA)
We had a wonderful stay at the Burton Beach House. It was so beautiful and new! We were not expecting the house to be so updated and fresh. Very well worth the money!
 
 We had a fantastic time, March 10, 2006
By A renter (Vancouver, WA USA)
Thanks for letting us use your vacation home. We had a fantastic time. The children were more than happy-they stayed busy the whole time. The weather was warm and sunny-rained at night, but that made it cozy. We got to enjoy the fire pit too! I am looking forward to another trip to the coast real soon.
 
 We will be back, September 28, 2005
