We enjoyed the wooded setting and privacy of this vrbo. It was a short walk to the beach. Very roomy and comfortable for a family of four. We would definitely stay here if we come back to Westport!
4.0 / 10.0
This property was selected based on the number of people it could fit and number of rooms. I was so disappointed by the cleanliness of this place - sticky walls and chairs, dirty floors that hadn't been swept, dirty used toilet paper in the bathroom, kitchen counters and stove were not cleaned and the list went on. We spent a few hours cleaning during our "vacation". While we were not charged a cleaning fee, it made the stay the focus rather than an enjoyable weekend at the beach.
Vrbo's main office got back to me, but the local office never connected with me. After 3 requests, I gave up. Just so sad.

I had just come off a long road trip and this was the perfect retreat to unwind.

This place exceeded our expectations. It is a beautiful home, with plenty of room. Well furnished, continue for 4 miles well stopped with utensils. The hot tub was a very nice amenity, and so is the fire pit. The kids had a blast we would definitely like to use this place again when we travel to Westport

Summarized for detail, Arrived around 6 to find strange woman smoking in driveway thought cleaner? NOT cleaner. House was nasty.. the only thing changed inbetween guests was the bedding there was hair EVERYHERE, floor, counters, drawers, shower. Pubic hair on both toilet seats, in the shower and bathroom floor, SAND at least 1/4 cup in the shower, 1/2 the lightbulbs were burned out, outside garbage over flowing and stinking, THICK dust, wrote my name, missing remote in master. Couldnt watch it, ill equipt kitchen, good luck, most outdoor furniture was broken, I was injured more then once, BBQ so full of old grease ect our food caught fire multiple times, fire pit never shoveled, gate on deck broken, downstairs bathroom faucet and drain, NASTY kitchen cupboards/microwave caked on food. At 6:17 I recieved a text from vasca (a joke of a company) asking about the cleanliness and asked for a rating. I gave one and explained even sent pictures, they apologized and said they were working closely with the local staff to get this resolved, asked if I needed anything I said cleaner and lightbulbs. At 11:15 AT NIGHT, I recieved a text from them & they asked for more photos and info, I had already sent 17 photos and very detailed info. After driving for 6 hours getting there and having to deep clean i was women up by them. After that I never heard another word until check out day, asking for a review. When I inquired about lack of response I was patronized. Awful people. Awful compa

The house was great and had plenty of amenities to cook with. Looks very the hot tub, was nice after being down at the beach to come home and relax. Love the privacy and nature setting of the property and close to the beach access. We will definitely be back

We loved the hot tub and the fire pit, and wish we could have stayed longer!
The 10am checkout time felt pretty brutal when we stayed up late and wanted to have a nice breakfast in the morning.
Our only other complaint was the very thin and rough toilet paper. If we stay here again we would probably bring a roll of our own!

The home was in a nice quiet location. King bed was comfortable. Couches were comfortable as well. Wanted to use BBQ grill but it was out of propane. Informed Vacasa in hopes that the local team would bring some out, NEVER happened. A third party is used to treat the hot tub and the kid didn’t know what he was doing. It had brown/yellowish foam and ring around the hot tub, gross! Careful when you walk out the laundry room door to get to the hot tub, the nails are coming out of the wood and it hurts really bad when you step on them.

This place was perfect for our family. We have three teenagers and 11-year-old, and a dog in this place was absolutely perfect. Private in the forest extremely close to the beach. We were able to relax rest and enjoy our time. Hope to come back to this location.

Spent 4 nights in this lovely home. The property is beautiful and private and the beach is a short walk. Little things matter like having a soft bed, pillows, lots of towels, a comfortable couch, big TV, bright and airy and a things you need in the kitchen. The hot tub was wonderful and we enjoyed our stay! Thank you

Initial impression wasn't great--main floor toilet was leaking. Turns out it just keeps running so rather than deal with maintenance people, we turned off the valve.
Sticky kitchen counter tops, crumbs on the "clean" dishes in the cabinets, dead bugs in the fridge, and an inside temperature of under 60 because the heat was off and then we found that all the floor vents were closed. Towels in the washer, sheets that were maybe not clean...
We spent the first hour changing the beds and cleaning the kitchen.
After that, we had a fabulous time. It's literally under 5 minutes to the beach and it's wonderfully quiet. The firepit was perfect and there's tons of parking.
The wooded grounds of the house are marred a bit by a couple trash dumps but we avoided them after the first day.
The hot tub was great and we knew it was clean because the hot tub maintenance man showed up the second day. So much for solitude.
The storm that knocked out power for 18 hours was thrilling but the beach was still wonderful. There's games and tons of emergency lighting. The gas fireplace was a blessing.
We enjoyed our stay but we expected a bit more for our money. The towels were tatty, paint was shabby and no welcoming touches like at other VRBOs we've stayed at.
I think we'll stick to non-corporate owned in the future.
10.0 / 10.0
Place was exactly what I wanted: Property was a little off the beaten path (had to turn off a paved road), easily in walking distance to the beach and everything was as described.

We had a great time & weather at Sand Castle - we loved the location & the proximity to everything especially the beach!
Everything was as in great condition & very clean! Everything there we didn’t have to eat out every night- which was great!
We will come visit again!

We loved this secluded house that is only a 4 minute walk to the ocean. Very private and quiet. House was basically everything we needed. Small complaints are that the carpet throughout the house is dirty, stained, and many thorns that poke your bare feet when walking around. Working washing machine would have been appreciated as it was advertised to have one but found out upon arrival that it was out of order. However, the hot tub was lovely and all other appliances worked well. Lovely shower as well. Would recommend to future families looking for a nice house in Westport.

Great location, close to sites and town, and very private wooded lot close to the ocean. Hot tub was an extra perk. Enjoyed the deer roaming around. House was nicely laid out for the 6 of us. Burning ban, but outside fire pit looked like a nice area. Lots of towels and basic supplies like TP but no tissue. The negative was that the carpets were stained and needed cleaning, bathroom floor rug looked dirty, and overall cleaning could use improvement (found food wrappers under / around beds in single bed room. Overall though nice property for the price.
6.0 / 10.0
The house has great potential.
Some items to note:
Rooms are nestled closely on the same floor. One shower/toilet upstairs.
Master bed. Comfortable and large. Squeaky
2nd bed. Comfortable for children
3rd "bed". A hideaway couch and trundle bed in a small room with access to deck. Not a safe space for kids. Warning "don't lean on railing". The room is too small to open the hideaway couch, the trundle cannot be used unless you rearrange the room to extend. Awkward and I wouldn't put children in there.
The bedrooms were clean.
Bath towels were dingey. Could use a bleaching.
The kitchen wasn't clean. Pots and pans had baked on food. Spent my first day sanitizing everything.
Hot tub was milky. Could also use a cleaning. Didn't use.
Living room was Comfortable. But also looked like it hadn't been thoroughly cleaned in some time. IE: crumbs in cushions.
For the cost it wasn't bad.
Hopefully the local cleaning crew steps up thier game.
Access to beach via 5 minute walk. The trail will soon be blocked due to new homes being built.

This place is advertised as a king, a queen, 2 twin beds, and a queen sleeper, so we booked it for 5 of us to each have a bed. Turns out the two twins are a daybed with a trundle bed placed right next to the queen sleeper so you can't pull the trundle out. Luckily I packed an air mattress and two of our friends were willing to share a bed. The redeeming aspect of this place is that it is basically right on the beach, that was awesome.

We've been renting this home for three years now. We've looked at other homes to rent and this house is by far the best value. Our favorite features are the vaulted ceilings to get that spacious feel, the upper deck to watch the stars at night, the hot tub after walking the beach all day to soothe our muscles, the sound of the ocean when the windows are open, the super short walk to the beach, and the beautiful view of trees out of every window. The deer also come to visit from time to time which is a real treat. If you are looking for a private, quiet, affordable getaway this is the house to rent. You won't be disappointed.

The property was amazing and we really enjoyed the fact that we were so close to the beach the lighthouse was right down the road and all the things that you need or close by
My only complaint was you could tell that they pressure wash the deck and they didn’t clean the windows after pressure washing the deck there was mud on the glass screen door and the front window

Great location; private wooded property and short walk to beach. Small but cozy, loved the hot tub and fireplace. Yes, this property actually has a BBQ and a patio set on the back deck. The garage was nice to unload and store all of our boat and wetsuit gear while it wasn't being used. House had a good amount of bathroom and beach towels with a washer/dryer that works well. Make sure that items like washer pods, dishwasher tabs, paper towels and toilet paper have been replenished since the last guest. I went to do laundry a couple days in and there were zero laundry pods so management had to bring some. The house was also only stocked with 2 partially used toilet paper rolls and a partially used roll of paper towels. Needless to say that is NOT sufficient stocking for a family of 4 for an entire week. Management said "we stock 2 rolls in each bathroom" which wasn't the case and that "we start you off with basic supplies but larger families or people staying longer than 3 days will need to replenish their own". Really? I was NOT impressed with that as I had to buy a pack of toilet paper on day 5 and this was stated no where in the rental agreement nor have I had this issue with any other beach house I have rented. I would recommend bringing the following items with you no matter how long you stay: kitchen towels, kitchen cleaning spray, paper towels and dish soap as basics. If you cook at all or go crabbing, bring your own knife set, and a large pot for sure. We brought our own Keurig but there is one tucked away in a cabinet. Bonus for this property is they have an additional fridge/freezer in the garage which was very nice for larger items and drinks.
Overall our stay was nice. Would I stay here again? Depends on if there are some serious changes done by housekeeping staff and management.
1) I know its not your pet, but if the previous guest didn't pick up dog poop, please do it so the next guest doesn't start their stay by locating a shovel and picking up 11 piles of dog poop.
2) Get a garbage can strap so raccoons don't dump your can at night. Then guests don't have to pick up garbage strewn about.
3) Get a keypad digital lock on one of the doors, carrying around a single key is worrisome especially when your family goes to the beach.
4) Update your listing description & photos!!! There is no firewood & no fridge upstairs but there is a BBQ, patio set, fire pit seating and even viewing of a bright turquoise honeybucket straight out back!

We stayed for three nights and had a wonderful time! We loved being able to walk easily to the beach and being close to Westport Light State Park. The family enjoyed the balance of having space to be together and rooms that were well set up for some alone time as well. The property manager helped us promptly and the house was spotless when we arrived. A great stay and I hope we can come back some time!

We enjoyed our stay in Westport at this lovely property. Would recommend for families - tho some with younger kiddos may not like steep stairs and hot tub - our kids (4 and 6) loved it! Beach is walking distance and everything is only about a short 5 minute drive. Loved the marina, beaches, and seafood restaurants downtown. Can’t wait to come back!

This house was very clean and had a great location! Rooms were very large and there was easily enough space for 2 or 3 families. When an issue occurred staff was available and accommodating. Only real negative is we were hoping for a few more basic ingredients (flour, sugar, baking sheets etc.)
4.0 / 10.0
The location is great. It's just a short walk to the beach. The house is pet friendly, our 3 year old yellow lab loved it. The house needs some TLC. Everything is very worn and dirty. The rusted patio set on the deck had mice droppings on it. The kitchen was sticky with food on the the handles of rhe fridge and dishwasher. The carpet is stained and dirty throughout. The linens and towels are really worn. The house smells musty and needs a good cleaning.

Just had a few issues with cleanliness - sand on end tables, dresser tops, etc. Window screens and tracks full of dead bugs, so didn't open the windows.
Also, guests were not following the cleaning up after your pets rule, which is sad because it ruins it for others.
