Why the Owner Chose Moclips
My husband Rich, myself and our dogs have been visiting Moclips for over 15 years. We would walk the beach dreaming of someday owning our own vacation home. One day in January 2005 we took a random drive up SR 109 and stumbled upon the most overgrown decrepit property. We walked through the tall grass and took one look at the view and were totally wowed. We sat on the crumpled deck in back and looked at each other and said "I guess we're going to be buying this". After one year of living in the "shack" we coordinated our architect and builder and together designed Seashore Dreams which was completed in September 2007. We designed both homes with the view in mind - making sure whereever you went in the home you would see the ocean. We also wanted to make sure it was built green and we recycled the old building and built new with renewable resources, low VOC paints and clean in floor heat. Thus the Dream of a vacation home became reality.
The Unique Benefits at this Duplex Home
We are a side by side duplex - each home being individual can be rented by itself. It is also great for two families who want to rent side by side but still have privacy. Because we sit sixty feet above the beach and had a large lot, we made the home one level living but added a loft bedroom in each unit. The views are phenomenal and what people enjoy most about our homes. We were aging ourselves and thought making our home easily accessible (no stairs) would benefit a growing segment of our guests. We added ramp entries into the design, wider doorways and lower light switches to name a few. We created a bath that could accomodate a wheelchair and a rollin in shower. We are walking distance to the Museaum and the resort that offers a gym and swimming pool for a small fee. We are not in a development and are bordered by a windblown treed lot and another older home that is maintained but not occupied. One of the favorites of our lady guests are the jetted tubs in the master suites...very relaxing after a brisk walk on the beach below. Beach access is easy and just a short walk down Sunset Street.
One thing for sure is that it is a relaxing get away where you can choose to be active or you can choose to just sit and watch the ocean.
Moclips and Pacific Beach have a colorful local history. Visit the museum and see some interesting artifacts and hear how things were at the turn of the Century.
Local Pub with good food, pool tables, sports bar and Karoke. Very local.
Owner's Map of Moclips
My husband and I became "ocean loving people" about 15 years ago after many years of backpacking in the hot, bug infested mountains. We enjoy the fresh air of the coast, the sounds of the pounding ocean and watching the storms come and go. I love photography and find this a great retreat to help get my creative juices going again. We have been dog owners and trainers for many years and we wanted a place to be dog friendly for us and for responsible guests with clean, well trained dogs.
