Sandcastle Bluff in Moclips

This is one of our finest rentals on the coast. It sits on top of a bluff that has an unobstructed view of the ocean.

ABOUT SANDCASTLE BLUFF

The grand room has huge ceilings with floor to ceiling windows that offer views as far as the eye can see. Not just any old views either, we mean views of those crashing waves you dream of seeing when planning your getaway.

There are multiple bedrooms that offer this view as well. Upstairs in the loft, there is a big library where you can kickback, relax and enjoy a nice morning cup of coffee before diving into those seaside adventures.

Both of the master suite bedrooms have gorgeous views of the ocean and even the bunk bed upstairs has a view of the water. Most places have the "best" room, but here at Sandcastle Bluff every room is the best room!

The open, airy space of this house will make you feel comfortable as soon as you walk in the door. There's enough room for up to 10 people to enjoy this updated home and the views it has to offer.

WHAT GUESTS HAVE TO SAY

"We truly enjoyed our stay in this home. The home has a very homey feel. There is a wonderful view of the ocean and a very short walk to the beach." - Sarah

"This was a wonderful property--quiet, clean and spacious with a view to die for." - Ben

MORE ABOUT SANDCASTLE BLUFF

The house is handicap accessible, with a ramp at the entrance and lots of space inside to accommodate people with extra needs.

The kitchen comes fully equipped with everything you need to cook up a storm. All of the pots, pans, dishes, and flatware are provided for you in order to create the perfect meal for everyone. Enjoy your meal at the table that overlooks the water as well!

Right outside on the deck you can enjoy a nice sunny day with a few friends, and with the sandy beach right below you, there's a lot of fun to be had.

Drive your car out onto the beach (just a few minutes down the road) and fly a kite, or let the kids play around in the sand. The seaside activities that Moclips has to offer are absolutely endless.

There are restaurants and bars just down the road if you don't want to cook. All of which serve locally hand crafted meals to friendly visitors like you! Ocean Shores is a quick drive down the highway if you want to go rent a scooter for the day or check out some of the local shops on the coast. Pick up some souvenirs to take home so you never forget your getaway here!

Dogs are welcome with a standard per dog, per night fee.

Beautiful Beach Getaway!
The house was lovely and perfect for our family of 4, but could sleep at least 4 more. Terrific sunset views overlooking Sunset Beach that's just a short drive away.

Great View; Some Negatives
We stayed here for four nights. This is a charming house throughout with a spectacular view of the ocean. The beds and bedding are very comfortable. The library is amazing. The hot tub is well maintained and appreciated. The house is very accessible with a wheelchair ramp and would be comfortable for all ages. Negatives: the outside areas are in need of attention. The yard, which is crushed rock is filling with weeds and needed mowing. The decking is collapsing in several places and is slippery with moss in some places when wet. Wooden seating on the deck needs pressure washing. The lounge chair cushions and frames are in need of cleaning. Bushes are in need of trimming as they are beginning to obstruct the view. Pictures online must be very old.

Great stay during the winter time
Had a great time enjoying the ocean view during the winter. It was pretty chilly outside but the large windows were great to see the ocean from the dining table and couch. Thanks for having us and allowing our dogs to come with us too!

Mixed review
Lots of long black hairs in master bath floor and shower off living room(GROSS) Well stocked kitchen 5 remotes by living room TV and absolutely no explanation is ridiculous and we are Seahawks fans and had to leave the property to watch the game which costs us about a $100 for food and beverages in order to be in a public place to see the game and we were very disappointed. Beds were very comfortable Hot tub should have steps and railings for safety purposes

Great Get Away
Perfect getaway, close access to beach, and great place to spend time with people you care about. Overall property was great and plan on booking again. Few issues with a TV not working in one room and a remote missing for blinds. Not a big deal, as we weren't there to watch TV and we had sunshine that was very much appreciated. Small stuff in the big scheme of things. All good.

Beautiful View
The property was very nice, very large open house with beautiful beach views. The hot tub was large and a very nice relaxing break. There are TVs in the bedrooms but they do not have cable. There is a fire pit but it cannot be used due to burn bans for the entire summer. This is a managed property and you pay those fees and it feels very strictly managed. There is no direct beach access, you have to drive (only 1/4 of a mile) around the corner to drive on the beach. We had to make up the kids bedroom as the sheets were folded next to the beds. I probably would not go through this company again due to the amount of fees you pay for the amenities you get. If you have someone who is handicapped, this would be an ideal place they could get around the house and see the beach from the deck.

This property is amazing! The house and property were very clean. The kitchen was very well equipped. The location was perfect, serene, quiet. The sound of the waves lulled us to sleep at night. Hot tub was a total bonus. Lots of space in the house itself...great layout. The view was outstanding. The upstairs library was chock full of fun and games. Everything in the house worked really well. Plenty of parking and very safe.

Sand Castle Summer 2022
Overall we were very happy with the property and would rent it again. We usually stay with 14 people but this year only had 10 so it worked out perfectly. Easy to get to, room for our party of 7 adults and 3 kids to spread out. The kids loved the hot tub after a day at the beach. If I had to raise one major complaint it would be the lack of view of the beach from the deck and lower level. The overgrowth of the vegetation on the other side of the chain link fenced has not been maintained and so spoiled the view unless you are standing in the right spot. This was a comment from other people and so I had really hoped it had been taken care of before we got there. The main reason I rented this home was for the view from the deck. Having rented many homes in the past I was not surprised by some of the challenges as it seems to happen in every home. Home was older and more worn than appear in the pictures as usual. There were many notes around the house about things that are going to be fixed. The common joke between us was about how long the repair notes have been there as they looked like it has been a while. It got really warm in the afternoon to evening because we couldn't lower the upper blinds due to the remote control not being present. Again not to be overly picky - we really enjoyed our stay and would stay again if we only have part of the family with us.

Beautiful setting in a comfortable house
Lovely view on a bluff overlooking the ocean. House is well equipped. Two master suites on the main floor with very comfortable beds and their own exits to the large deck. Loved that all the switches were marked. The remote for the upper shades was missing, and it would be helpful to have a written guide for the TV/cable as each system is a little different. We reported the overhead lights in one bathroom were burned out but they were not replaced during our stay. The location and comfort outweigh any minor inconveniences.
