[quote=Anonymous]My family has been going to Seaside every summer since the 1980's when the first cottages were built on Rosewalk.  Our current family reunions there include two kids about the same age as yours.
Notes:  if you're wanting to use the Seaside beach proper, you'll probably want to rent their chairs and umbrellas. You will need to supervise your kids too.  There are no lifeguards.  There are shark sightings, rip currents, etc.  A flag system is enforced.  I would not just send your young kids out the door to the beach unsupervised (we don't).  I've actually never seen unsupervised kids on the Seaside beach who were under about 16 yo but that's just my experience.  In the old days, the beauty of Seaside was that it was a friendly front porch community where kids found friends easily and parents looked out for each other's kids. These days, there are many more short-term visitors (1 week or less) and finding friends to hang out with isn't as easy.
We love it there year round, but the heat in July is brutal.  The crowds and traffic in the peak months have become pretty difficult too.  My favorite months in Seaside are May and October. 
For July, I would choose Telluride.  There's a cute Fourth of July parade there every year.  [/quote]
