Birch Bay Getaway

I want to give this place 5 stars because they were quick to fix a problem that needed fixed. BUT the place way filthy the room, the grounds everything. The cabins are quant, I would be interested in going back in the summer, but I would bring cleaning supplies and my own bedding! The bedding smelled! It is such a cool spot and the property is awesome! The view from our room was beautiful and the rooms were completely stocked price was right for the off season! I can’t understand why they wouldn’t clean up that beautiful property.

The cabins were quaint and perfect for family’s or as a romantic weekend getaway. I really enjoyed the people very much. The Management/​Owner were very friendly and accommodating. The recommendations for food were excellent. And the sunsets are amazing. I would recommend this to anyone looking for a great place to stay. And it was very affordable as well.

IF I COULD LEAVE NO STARS, I WOULD! The place is dirty with cob webs all over the room.
Not only is the staff inappropriate, Jake was rude, when I called to state how disappointed I was with the condition of the room, I was told I would receive a return call, to work things out, that was at 8:30 it is 11pm and no call… I was never called back, my husband called Jake «the snake» and we never received a return call. So we are stuck staying at this awful place. They would not refund my money, nor would they move me to a different room.
Never in a million yrs. would I ever stay here again nor would I recommend this place.
This morning when I opened the bathroom window I realized there was black mold around the bath room window. However I am not surprised… The kitchen is ok, however the dishes had to be washed before using, the drawers had dirt and dried up food in them and the cooking pans had dried burnt food in them.
The sheets were dirty with hair and dirt on them as if they were not changed. And as for internet… yeah NOT, that also is a lie, didn’t work at all. VACATIONER BEWARE!!! THIS PLACE IS A JOKE!

Came here on a whim in the off-​season the weekend prior to Thanksgiving, as a last-​minute meet-​up with some friends. They have 2 kids and so we needed some place where we could spread out on a budget. This place was perfect for our needs and at a great off-​season discounted rate. Our kitchen was fully stocked with what we needed for pots, pans and dishes, although as noted by another there was no coffee. We came equipped as we are the camping type, so just make a note of that as you plan your trip. Décor is strange, but we had no nude photos to offend or discuss. Everything was clean, bedrooms were tiny but they had notified us if this in advance. 4 instead if 5 stars because the futon was less than comfy, and the customer service was average (but definitely sufficient!).

Phenomenal view of the bay. But when you spend over $ 150 on a night’s stay, a dirty stained carpet and a condo that smells like dog is unacceptable. Furthermore, there was dog hair all over the chair on the porch. Other than that it was dated (which is fine) and safe, but clean? Definitely not.

Class operation. I have know the owner of this property for over 20 years. He really tries his best to make each customer feel special. There are a variety of 1,2 & 3 bedroom units. The cottages are stand alone individual houses plus 3 units with a great ocean view. Lots of Krazy art. — I recommend the Birch Bay Getaway as often as possible.

If I could give it 0 stars I would. Very dirty! Looks nothing like the website photos or description. Not going to get into all that was wrong I really would be typing awhile! Just read other reviews (trip advisor) and you will get the picture. We ended up leaving right away.

The photos were deceiving; the place is not ON the beach (there is a two-​lane highway outside the front door, then beach parking on the other side), the kitchen is a disaster to cook in with trashed pots and pans, no cutting board, no amenities, not even a bowl to prep foods; a quarter cup of ancient coffee and two bags of sugar as the coffee service?! The place was not clean; there was a slick, waxy covering across the tiled floor, dead bugs on the window ledges, dust everywhere. I had to laugh each time I saw the sign outside that advertised «Luxury Beach Accomodations».
I hope that others will not be duped by photos that must be 15+ years old. The place looks funky but charming in those pictures… but there are now crappy nudes /​semi-​clad women pics all over (ala 70’s love pad). I don’t mind a well-​painted nude… but this was something out of a pain-​by-​numbers nightmare. The sofa’s are exhausted and you sink down, nearly to the floor… the bed slopes down toward the headboard if you wanna snuggle, etc. etc.
There was no DVD player either, which is so strange in the year 2012. We’d brought a couple of DVD’s of Six Feet Under to watch… but had to make do with «Footloose» on cable… laughable, truly.
The accomodations are run down, poorly cared for, dirty, and utterly disappointing. I feel completely ripped off at having to pay even half of the room rate charged. The other review here is for the same room… and I sure wish I had thought to check with Unilocal before heading out of town.
I work hard for my money and it hurt like crazy to throw it away on such a dump… on my birthday weekend too. DO NOT GO THERE!
