`We just spent a wonderful week at Halycon Hideaway. From the moment we stepped in the house we knew it was going to be a great vacation. The house itself is beautiful with plenty of space for our group of 8. The location is perfect for walking or riding bikes to the beach or into Seaside. The pickleball court was an added bonus and we used it everyday. Mitch and his team did a wonderful job and are very easy to work with. Communication is excellent and they made sure we had everything we needed. Zero complaints and we cannot wait to come back next year!` - Lauren, July 2025

Perfect house for Family

The house was perfect for our large family. We enjoyed the large kitchen area for meals and game night. The bedrooms were set up well for everyone to have some of their own space. Wish the upstairs had an additonal bath for the king room not shared with the bunk room but that is minor. Easy access to shopping and the beach.

Perfect House, Perfect Location, All the Amenities

We had an incredible time at Halcyon Hideaway with a big group of friends and multiple families. The house was perfect for gathering—spacious, stylish, and comfortable—but what really made it special were all the shared experiences. From relaxing mornings on the porch with coffee, to afternoons spent by the pool and evenings grilling out and hanging by the fire pit, every moment felt easy and fun. The location couldn’t be better either—close enough to walk to the beach or grab a drink in Seaside, but tucked away enough to feel peaceful.The private pickleball court was a huge hit (some friendly rivalries definitely emerged!), and the kids were constantly entertained with the pool, bunk room, and games. Every family had their own space to unwind at the end of the day, which made it feel like a true vacation for everyone. We’ll be talking about this trip for a long time—and already planning when we can come back.

Location and space in this house were fantastic. Loved the kitchen - we had a private chef one night and the set up for that could not have been better. So nice for everyone to have their own bedroom too! Pickleball, spa, walking to lots of cute shops all made for a fun girls trip. Property manager was thorough and communicated well at booking, before check in, during our stay and after check out.

Family Vacation

The home was beautiful. Plenty of space for our family of 20. Kids spent most of the time in the pool. Home was stocked very well. Had plenty of towels and necessities to start our vacation. We had a great time. My family loves to cook. Home had everything we needed to prepare our meals. The open floor plan and tv in the dining area was a plus. I would suggest an additional refrigerator or drink refrigerator. Once you go shopping for people if fills up the refrigerator fast. Somewhere to keep drinks cold would have been nice. We would definitely recommend this home.

Great House

We loved our stay at Halcyon Hideaway. The proximity to the beach, the pickleball court, and the amount of beds for all our people were perfect! Any issues we had were quickly resolved (nothing major, the door to the bathroom didn’t shut fully.) We enjoyed the pool after the beach as well. The house provided tons of beach towels, beach chairs and toys which was so fun for our large group. The only feedback we have is a larger refrigerator or separate drink fridge, more storage for pantry items, and maybe a second washer dryer. But those are not must haves, just for a house that size and with our 19 people, those things would have been a major bonus! We would definitely stay again if we come back!!!

First Renters

We were the first renters of this magnificent newly renovated and expanded property. It was a great fit for our large, extended family with a big living area and a big dining/kitchen area. The private pool was great, especially for the little children. The very nice “cherry on top” was our own private pickle ball court! Our young adult children were still playing pickleball after 10:00 pm! Management was VERY easy to work with. We will try to stay here again!

Great location and amenities

We had a wonderful stay at Halcyon Hideaway! The updates through out the house were fantastic. We enjoyed sitting on the screened porch every morning with a cup of coffee. The brand new pool, grill and outdoor furniture were wonderful to use during our stay. We also appreciated the amount of beach gear and beach toys provided which our daughter enjoyed playing with and it was helpful that we didn’t need to bring these items with us. The location of the house is absolutely perfect. Just a short, shaded walk to the beach and also a short stroll into town. Mitch was extremely helpful and responsive when I inquired about the backyard update status and with any additional questions I had. He also allowed us to check in early which was so appreciated so our daughter could rest after a long morning of traveling. We highly recommend Halcyon Hideaway for your next trip to the Seaside/Seagrove area!
