Our family, five adults and one dog, had a wonderful time at castle in the sand! The house was spacious and clean, and the kitchen had almost everything you could think of, which was great for my chef son. The limited view did not bother us at all and the walk over the sand dune was not a problem, although it would be too much if you were infirm, elderly or a small child (the cut grass was not at eye level for us fortunately). All in all, we would come back!

Lovely home, pleasantly surprised at how large it was. Very clean and comfortable and an extremely well stocked kitchen. We loved it!

This property is fantastic.There is o much room we didn't even use all the beds! The central location to Newpo and the crab fishing to Yachats shopping and excellent seafood restaurants/hiking trails. The only cons are the fact that we needed to do dishes and laundry or will be fined - with the amount we paid this should not be an issue.Also, the walk to the beach. It is abit rough, I was thinking grandparents could not do it. There should be some steps or something. But overall a great family place with an amazing beach.

The house is a little worn on the outside but great inside. Clean comfortable and well stocked on utensils and cookware. Short walk to the beach. Great place for large group and dogs definitely would stay again.

The home is comfortable. It is a little run down with some things in need of paint and closet doors needed some maintenance.
There is a bluff between the house and ocean, and beach access front m the house is not possible if you have difficulty climbing sand.
The kitchen has a lot of nice dishes and pots and pans. I would have liked measuring spoons and a better can opener.
Our family had a very nice time playing games and making and eating great food. We did have to drive some to an easier beach access up the road. The deck was nice and we loved listening to the ocean.

We had a wonderful stay at this delightful beach house! We had three couples, each with their well-behaved dog. The house was super clean and well appointed. The furniture was clean and inviting to sit on. Our guys had great laughs while playing pool in the very nice family room downstairs. We had easy access to the beach and were close by to some of our other club members. The management company was prompt and responsive, although we really had no issues to report. We hope to come back to this house next year!

Reviewer Comments:
View was nice. House was quiet as there were no neighbors present on either side. Front entrance and driveway were overgrown with weeds and blackberry bushes and the driveway was full of potholes, altogether taking up 2 of the parking places - did not look at all like the photo. Kitchen cupboards and drawers need maintenance. Many of the cooking pans were dirty. The outside side decks are angling downward and didn't feel safe. Outdoor chairs were all cracked and broken. Would have been nice to have a tide table booklet and some pamphlets on local activities and vendors. Also needs to have some kind of info on cable system - not everyone is tech saavy. Did not expect to have to provide out own paper towels/toilet paper. When spending $4,000 we expected these to be provided. At least there were adequate linens/towels. Sliding doors were hard to open. And I think that it should not be the guest's responsibility to haul the garbage can up and down the nasty driveway.

The unit was in a great location- right on the beach. The view frommain room large windows couldn’t quite see over the sand dune to get the ocean, which was disappointing. Overgrowth of the landscaping was a little unsightly but not distracting from the experience. Overall the home worked well for our family with the two separate tv/sitting areas. Plenty of bedrooms. We felt the oregon coast welcome that we’ve grown to love and overlooked some of the shortcomings of the accommodation. Ocean Odyssey was pleasant to work with and responsive- we will use them for a future rental.

The rental was great. It was clean and very comfortable and cozy. The view was not quit what we expected. The vegetation was overgrown and it was a little difficult to see the ocean. you could see it, but just barely. The ad stated that the bedroom upstairs had an ocean view, but it did not. It had a view of the neighborhood. The kitchen was well equipped, but could use a Keurig. all in all it was a great experience.

16 steps to main floor. Internet connection was spotty and TV went out frequently. We thought it would be closer to the beach. We still enjoyed our stay.

House was amazing over all. Location, size of house, and clean/welcoming. Older house in need of fixing up.
Shower downstairs leaking, running toilets, mostly just wear and tear.
Fridge had old blood in it from meat. I cleaned it.
We really did enjoy the house. I would stay again. Don't want nothing to perfect for us to ruin. Lol.
Also, very comfortable beds and master shower.
You can definitely fit alot of people in house comfortably. Thank you

Very Spacious and accommodating layout. Would be great for larger family groups and mixed aged gatherings. With a fully furnished basement with a Large Game room with a pool table and a large upstairs common area with a large deck and beautiful views of the ocean, this property was well worth the price. Side Note - As of 4/23/23 there were enough coffee basket filters to make 2 years worth of coffee, so no need for more filters if reading this in the year 2023. LOL.

We stayed at Castle in the Sand, managed by Ocean Odyssey, for three nights in January. The whole experience was excellent. The home was well equipped and so perfectly cozy, it was just two of us and our doggies, so the home was HUGE. The property manager was extremely helpful with the check-in process (which was very easy). I would highly recommend this home in Waldport for your next visit to the area. The views and comfort can't be beat.

We came on a Thursday and left on a Tuesday. The house was clean and very well stocked. We thoroughly enjoyed watching the king tides and spending time so close to the beach. We will be back!

The property was pretty and had okay amenities, what really impressed me, is upon arrival we had a few issues, and the property manager was on top of taking care of everything for us, and making sure our vacation went off without a hitch and that we were truly comfortable in our environment. I would recommend this property solely on how well the management company works with you and actually cares (plus they were local).

This house is spacious for a large group and was perfect for our stay. It has multiple decks and a short private walk to the beach behind the house. House was clean (bed linens could use improvement) and well stocked (kitchen could use more towels) and had plenty of seating and lounging space. We did have to use WD40 on the sliding doors to open them, as well as switch out the bbq as the first one wasn’t working properly. Overall, We would return and recommend.

This house was very clean, and very well stocked. We were prepared with lots of TP, paper towels, etc, but there was enough to get us through the weekend without getting into our stock. The kitchen was amazing--every pot and pan and gadget you can imagine, including a blender, griddle, storage containers, plenty of bowls, plates, glasses, silverware to use for a big crowd and have extras not in the dishwasher. The living room upstairs is comfy with beautiful couches and a wood burning fireplace. There was enough wood for 3 nights' fires, along with starters and matches. The pool table room was also very comfortable and fun for kids to watch movies in separate from parents upstairs. Decor was cute beachy, not overdone. It is a simple walk across the dunes to a huge, wide open beach, and a quick over the bridge trip to a large supermarket. We had a nice time at this house.

We had a great time this summer in waldport. This house had comfortable beds and a good layout for our two families (4 adults and 4 kids under 8). We love this section of the beach and have been to this area multiple times. The kitchen in this house was a little outdated - the dishwasher was very weak and not installed properly. I was bummed to realized there was no coffee left over from another group for the first morning. And it was missing a large crab pot or crab crackers. There were also no beach toys or beach chairs on site. Overall, we loved this vacation.

The house was clean, lots of space, quiet ocean sound and the beach was accessible from the patio. Down stairs was perfect for the kids as they played Pool, board games that were provided and even connected their Playstation 5 to the TV. My family already wants to return to this house again next year.

Castle in the Sand was the perfect place for our beach vacation. The house was very comfortable, spacious, and clean. Our extended family enjoyed being able to spread out, play games, watch a movie, and play pool. The best part was the easy access to the beach. Just a short walk over the dunes and you’re right there! We wouldn’t hesitate to stay again.

Friend group getaway
Our friend group of 3 families had a great time at this property. Late spring early summer is always hit or miss on the weather and our trip was mostly rainy with good winds one of the days. But proximity to to ocean when the wind and sky were calm was perfect. This property is spacious enough and was fully stocked with everything we needed to hangout inside. View of the ocean from the side to side bay windows was awesome (note that you cannot see the immediate beach from the windows due to the dunes only the outlying water). Some of the other reviews mentioned cleanliness as an issue. The house was clean and tidy and well stocked. There did appear to be a drainage issue with a sink in the primary, one if the closet doors was unattached and in the back of the closet and the garbage disposal couldn't handle disposing very well but everything seemed reasonable for a rental and caused our group no distress. It has to be hard to maintain a spot constantly beaten by salt and sand. Personally had no issues with this property. But one notable and reason for only 4 stars is the "pool" mentioned in the advertisement. There is no pool on this property. There is however access to the community pool, for what I felt was a hefty additional fee per person. It is not on the property, private, or included. Also it is not always open. And when I inquired as to possible access prior to our arrival, the property management firm told me to "look up the phone number and call the pool because we didn't know that information." I felt the photos and advertisement read a little different and seemed to imply easy included access. Also felt that a management company should have all that info.
But overall, the house is a nice place with a quite privet beach location and had all the things you would for a beach weekend with kids and friends. Would rent again.

Overall our experience was great. The furniture, including beds, was comfortable. The kitchen is well equipped. The weather was cool and rainy so it was nice to have the pool table for entertainment. The game selection was not great. All of them were unusable . I usually bring some with me(22 years of yearly beach house rental) but due to the description, didn’t this time. The bbq was dirty but we baked our food instead of cleaning the bbq.

Creaky Beds
The lower level beds are so creaky some of us had to sleep on couches. When I spoke with them about this they offered a $250 refund but never credited my card. Now they aren't responding to my email or phone calls. Unprofessional rental company.

Fabulous family trip
We had a wonderful time at Castle in the Sand. This was a weekend trip with our kids, their spouses, and our new grandbaby... This house had plenty of room for all of us to spread out. It was relatively clean, other than some of the pans we pulled out to use. There is a gnat problem, but it didn't hinder our time together! Super access to the beach. It was a bonus that we had perfect weather. We hope to stay here again. Thank you!
