We had a wonderful stay at the Riptide Retreat with family. The house had everything we needed and was so comfortable. We appreciated that we were able to bring our pups along, as we enjoy having them with us and they love the beach. Having the large, fenced yard made it so easy for us. The kitchen worked well for all of the meals we prepared, and the extra-large table were great for both our shared meals and for playing games. We enjoyed how easy it was to access the beach, Ocean Shores, and Seabrook for a variety of things to do. We would love to come and stay again in the future! Thank you!

End of School Year Vacation

This oceanfront property was a great launching point for our vacation on the Olympic peninsula. We were able to walk to the beach, explore Olympic National Park, and drive on the beach all the way to Ocean Shores. The location was amazing!

Wonderful Getaway

Are you looking for a getaway? This is the place. Outside Ocean Shores which means plenty of space to explore on the beach without many tourists. The gated yard has lots of room for dogs to romp (or run off the sand), and a hose and rags are ready for an extra clean. I cannot wait to go again.

SO Close to Everything We Love at Ocean Shores

It had alot of home touches, so you don't have to lug it from home. (Throws for lounging on the recliners, picnic basket, kitchen spices and pump soaps at all the sinks!) Wagon to pull everything to the beach, down the private path, or drive down the beach from the access rd only blocks away. The only"negative" is the tight garage, (didn't affect me, but I think my husband's fully loaded truck would have parked in the driveway)

Peaceful / Private

Great place to disconnect and enjoy nature! Property is perfectly placed between trees with an unobstructed view of the ocean and waves. Short walk to the beach if the path is flooded. Short drive to Ocean Shores and other locations. House is beautifully decorated and those couches.... comfy. This was our second trip and I'm looking forward to more!

Seclusion on the beach

If you are looking for seclusion you found the spot! Large property and not another home insight. Fabulous location, ocean view, comfortable furniture and outstanding cleaners. You can't go wrong. It was just the dog and i so half the house wasn't even used. I can see it being a great spot for families or group getaways. I enjoyed myself so much, that i booked another longer stay!

Amazing house for the beach

This is a remarkably well-equipped house for a family vacation. The hosts provide an entire cabinet of games and lots of beach toys. There is a well-maintained walking path to the beach, and on a clear day you can see the water from the deck. The kitchen has plenty of dishes and cookware. Hosts are extremely communicative. Only thing to be aware of is that the shower in the master bath is extremely tiny (so small my husband had to use the downstairs shower instead).

Relaxing!

This home was lovely. We were in town for the Sand & Sawdust Festival and stayed for the weekend. The house had everything we needed and then some. Beds were comfortable, nice water pressure, and just sitting on the deck listening to the ocean was very peaceful. Our little Ziggy loved the huge yard. Look forward to going back! Thank you so much!

Family Spring Break with grandparents

Very comfortable for 6 people, felt like home. Private yet super close to drive-on beach access. Clamming in season.. a fun first for the kids!! Lots of games for rainy days and beach toys as well. Great fenced yard for the dogs. Very responsive host. Do bring your binoculars to enjoy watching the coyotes and eagles nearby.
