Right On the Beach! Hot Tub, Pet-friendly, Fireplace, WiFi, Best of NW Escapes!

*Right On the Beach! In-deck Hot Tub, Pet-friendly, Fireplace, WiFi, BBQ, Best of NW Escapes!*
Welcome to Sand Castlemore – the perfect escape to the Seascape of the Pacific Northwest. Just 16 steps from the sand, this beachfront luxury home has been nominated King 5 & Evening Magazine Best of Western Washington Northwest Escapes--Best Getaways. Our beautiful, custom-built, Lindal Cedar (beachfront) home is slightly more than a 2 hour drive from the Seattle/Tacoma or Portland areas. Located on Sunset Beach in Moclips, Washington it is an easy drive north of Ocean Shores. The home's seashore setting, glorious unobstructed panoramic view of the Pacific Ocean, decadent accommodations, and magical charm make it the perfect vacation destination for families, friends, romantic getaways, and for a sea escape from the 'real world.'

Make no mistake, SAND CASTLEMORE IS JUST STEPS FROM THE SAND -- not like homes on the bluff requiring a serious hike to the beach or a drive in the car, and not like homes to the south sitting a mile or more back from the sand’s edge -- but rather, Sand Castlemore requires only 16 easy steps from the homes deck, down a private staircase, to the sea grass below. Imagine spending the entire day on the beach but only having a quick trip up your very own stairs to grab a beach towel, some food and drink, or to meet a restroom need. This can be especially handy with children or older folk who may tire more easily. This home has unmatched privacy--there are no homes on the beach to the south as far as the eye can see. This is especially convenient when enjoying the private hot tub.

This part of the Washington Coast features a beautiful high bluff with windswept trees, and the tranquil, unspoiled beaches below. Perhaps more surprising, it features the expansive Olympic wilderness that is famous for its BIGFOOT SIGHTINGS. Several of the most “well-known and documented” sightings have been only a few miles from our home. We won’t tell if we’ve seen Bigfoot ourselves!

There are several of the best steelhead and salmon rivers in the whole Pacific Northwest within a 30 minute drive. Lake Quinault is a 20 minute drive east. The Hoh River rain forest and the Olympic National Park are a short distance away.

This gorgeous 3 bedroom, 2 bath home can accommodate up to 8 guests and offers unmatched seaside quality throughout.

Deck
The perfect place to relax in the sun with a tall drink. The deck railing is glass paneled providing an unhindered 180° (plus) view of the ocean. And there's nothing like feeling a slight ocean breeze rush past while you're relaxing in the hot tub.

Sandcastlemore is our favorite home to stay when we come to the beach. It’s super clean and well maintained, has all the comforts of home, and you can’t beat the view and direct access to the beach.

Relaxation on the Beach

We had a wonderful, relaxing birthday weekend out at the beach house with friends, family, and our pup. The house was pristine and very well appointed, including lots of thoughtful amenities. The hosts were great, very thoughtful, proactive, and responsive. Fabulous spot on the beach where you can walk right out to the dunes, very private and peaceful.
