We liked this property. It’s very well maintained and appointed. It’s also somewhat secluded so you don’t hear neighbors and does have direct access to the beach.
Holly was a wonderful host! Great communication and very welcoming. The home was in a perfect location and very well appointed. It had everything we needed to enjoy the beach and surrounding communities. We will definitely be back!

Great weekend spent with family. Beautiful property, public beach access just around the corner.
The house was very comfortable and well stocked with everything you could need. Lots of fun board games to play. We loved hearing a chorus of frogs outside at night. We hope to be back!
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!
We are a family of four and this house was perfect for our short getaway to the coast. It was very clean, located well to get access to the beach and had everything we could need. We’d stay here again if coming back to the area. Thank you.
The host was extremely response, and also patient with me when I didn't fully read the check in instructions for the door code. This house was so beautifully decorated I felt at home immediately!
The house was great and had everything we needed. It was so nice to be able to bring our dog with us. We loved walking to the beach it was beautiful. Fast and friendly communication. We would stay there again.
This house was perfect. Close to the beach. Clamming was amazing. Had everything we needed including a clam cleaning station. Great fenced yard for the dogs. Plenty of room in the garage to store our gear. Will definitely stay there again.
Great host/hostess. House is well appointed and perfectly situated for taking advantage of beaches open to razor clamming. This is our second stay and I’m sure it will not be our last.
Great location, beautiful area, house well equipped!
Our family (with 2.5 year old) stayed at the house and really enjoyed our time. The house is private, well laid out and had everything you need from two pack n plays, laundry, extra pillows and blankets and great kitchen cooking supplies. The house was clean and tidy upon arrival. Holly was great to communicate with and so nice! Would definitely stay again!
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.
We had a wonderful stay at the Riptide Retreat. Located in a nice quiet neighborhood, large private yard and deck, nicely decorated and comfortable. After staying at several beach rentals the Riptide outshined them all. It was helpful that rental rules and instructions are nicely posted around the home. Dog friendly is a plus! I can’t think of anything missing that would have made our stay more enjoyable. Hoping we can return again soon.
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!
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!
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!
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).
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)
What a perfect place for a peaceful retreat. The property was very clean, extremely comfortable, and so peaceful.We loved our time spent here and hope to make this an annual tradition!
