Wonderful stay

My husband and I stayed for a little getaway and had a perfect time. The beach cabin is cozy, well remodeled and very comfortable. Bed was comfy, which is something most rentals lack. We squeezed in one beach walk before a massive storm hit. We did lose power, but we made the best of it. Would be a great stay for two families. Beach access is top tier.

Our favorite beach rental

This is our second time staying at this property. My kid loved it so much that he was packed and ready for the trip on Monday night when we weren’t heading to the coast until Saturday afternoon. The loft is his room when we stay there and he loves everything about this place. The kitchen is easily the most well stocked of any vacation rental we’ve used to date. Everything is clean and comfortable. Host was very organized and responsive, and the welcome materials are thorough to the point that I’ve never needed to get in touch once our stay begins. Highly recommend this rental for a great beach getaway.

Nice space with a sensible layout and a much much roomier feel than many vacation homes I've been in. Great Pacific-facing windows, good kitchen. We had a lovely stay.

Thanksgiving getaway

Perfect place for a relaxing Thanksgiving getaway at the ocean. Loved the sunset view, from the deck and hot tub. Amazing selection of DVDs. The shower and tub were fun and truly luxurious. We brought wet suits and really enjoyed the easy access to the beach and waves. Thank you for the camp chairs - they were great to take in the sunset from the top of the dunes. Our pup Sebastian absolutely loved the beach! Another magical stay in Waldport - worth the drive!

Spring Break w College Kiddo

Great spot to enjoy time with our son on his college spring break. Located in easy driving distance to Newport to the north, Waldport to the immediate south, and Yachats just beyond. Very dog friendly, too. Highly recommend!

Amazing stay on the Oregon Coast!

We had an amazing trip to Whimsical Dunes. The property itself was well maintained and nicely decorated. The location speaks for itself, with miles of quiet beach on either side of the property! It also has easy access to many popular towns and parks nearby. Would go back in a heartbeat!

Good spot by the ocean,

Property is as advertised. They were very clean. They could use a little WD 40 on the hot tub padlock, fix the microwave since the single digit minute is hard to see, and tighten the legs on the dining room chairs since they were wobbly (my husband did some). Great supply of towels. We only used one of the beds and it was comfortable.

Ideal beach house

Lovely property a short walk over a couple dunes to the beach. The hot tub is a great amenity. I was even more stoked for the foot shower. No AC, but you don’t need it. Windows open in 65 degree July evenings made for perfect sleeping conditions. Highly recommended

Awesome Beach Access

The property was great, clean, and so dog friendly. We didn't realize it until we arrived, but the porch with the hot tub is fully enclosed, making it easy to enjoy the hot tub knowing our pup wouldn't try to run off to the beach without us. The beach access is so easy and short, and the beach itself beautiful. We will be back!

Great remodeled beach house

The house was clean, bright and very comfortable for our stay.The only thing that we long for was some sort of small kitchen pantry for items that people may forget often when they travel. Luckily the store up on the highway is well-stocked and they had baking powder to save the day.

Beautiful sunsets

The house is perfectly located on a beautiful stretch of beach. Loved the interior. Kitchen cookware/utensils could be cleaner, but I find that to be the case at many rentals. The home was just the right size for our family of 5. We spent a day in Newport and a day in Florence renting ATVs near Oregon Dunes National Park. We loved our vacation and would stay again.

Fabulous, cozy and quirky beach house

Stayed at Whimsical Dunes for a little mini writing retreat with my friend. We wanted a cozy place to write and we got it! The house is decorated so fun and cute with adorable colors and great artwork. The location is steps to an amazing beach, and even though it rained most of our week (forced us to stay inside and do more writing!) we did enjoy our walks when it was sunny. We brought all our food for the week and planned on cooking all our meals, but we did have trouble with the oven not working. When we notified the owners they sent someone out to look at it and while it wasn't an easy fix they did issue us a bit of a refund which was nice. The only small things we kind of struggled with were the TV was hard to figure out, there were multiple remotes and no instructions. Also the kitchen utensils and dishware could be updated, it was mostly cheap but we made it work. All in all we had a lovely stay!
