The Sand Bucket Cottage is the best equipped retreat for the money in Pacific Beach. We back this with a price match guarantee, that we will meet or beat any competitor's quote whose accommodation has comparable features.
We spent three years looking for the right property with great 'bones'. We purchased at a price lower than anybody else, undertook a major renovation to bring you the highest quality accommodation at the best possible price.
Consequently, you will find features in our cottage that our competitors do not have such as; hardwood floors, cozy gas fireplace, a full second bathroom in-conjunction with a premium cable package on a HDTV with integrated DVD and complementary Wi-Fi, a gas BBQ, washer dryer, fire pit and all the comforts of home!
Others have sought to imitate us, but no-one can match the combination of features, quality and price.
Only 1/2 a mile to expansive sandy beaches on the most picturesque part of the Washington coast. Sleeps up to 8 people, great for families, with a focus on kid friendly activities with many toys and games.
The cottage features two bedrooms, the master has an attached private bathroom and it's own deck to enjoy the morning sun. The oversized front BBQ deck faces west, relax while enjoying the sunset. The kitchen is fully stocked and provides all utensils and gadgets to make your stay comfortable, ample linens and towels are provided for your stay.
A short stroll into the town of Pacific Beach, where you can enjoy an espresso while you browse the local gift stores. The town is nestled next to the beach which provides wonderful opportunities to enjoy the majesty of the Pacific Ocean.

Why the Owner Chose Pacific Beach
Emily's family have been visiting Pacific beach annually since the mid 1980s. The beach never gets old, beautiful and warm in summer, the winter is often just as much fun with some great storms and clamming on certain weekends. It provides us with a relaxing respite from the stresses of city life.

To make your stay as easy as possible if you have young children we have made available many things you would need for small children, including a pack and play, high chair, small chair for 2 - 5 year olds, numerous toys and boards games for all ages. A full compliment of cable channels and DVDs help for those downtime moments.
We also provide dog towels and an outdoor hose to help clean your dog.

Owned and renovated by Emily and Rob in late 2008, we live and work in Seattle and try to escape to our ocean retreat on a frequent basis. We have two young children so this is a perfect distance from Seattle to get away.

A prefect getaway

This is a clean and comfortable cottage and very well equipped for a relaxing stay. We spend hours on the beach with our 2 year old and our dog in December. The weather could not have been better but even if it hadn't, we would have been very comfortable and entertained inside the cottage. I can't imagine how wonderful it would be here in the summer. Our 2 year old immediately felt at home and everything we needed for her was there.

We took our dogs with us for a little getaway and it was a lot of fun! The cottage is very cute and well stocked. The owners thought of everything including towels specifically for the dogs to clean off the sand from their fur. The beach is close by with easy access and the little town has a darling coffee shop and home decor store that I visited every day! Close by is the town of Seabrook and we went there for lunch at Mill 109 (excellent restaurant) and we're also history buffs so we visited the Moclips Nautical Museum (only 2 miles away). The remainder of our time was reading books from the cottage's library and watching movies. It was a lot of fun and we'd definitely do it again.

My husband and 13 month old stayed here last weekend and loved it. The cottage has great finishes. The cottage is beach chic, clean and comfy. The pictures are accurate. You can hear the roar of the waves on the front deck. It's a great place to stay and we will be back! A heads up on the town.... I would stop and get groceries in Aberdeen. There is not much with regards to grocery stores or kid friendly restaurants in Pacific Beach. There is a great little coffee shop though and the beach is incredible!

We pretty regularly stay out at the WA and OR coast when we head out clamming for the weekend and have to say this spot is a perfect gem. Just tucked outside of downtown Pacific Beach, this is the perfect spot for two couples or a small family to get away. The owner was very responsive to questions and gave us great recommendations on where to find seafood, groceries, etc. This newly renovated bungalow was pristine inside, had everything you would need, clearly well cared for, and walking distance to town. Happily would return here again - loved it!
Owner response:We are so pleased that you had a great weekend, and appreciate the kind words. We hope that you think of us the next time you head to the coast.

You have created a wonderful beach house environment that combines the fun funky atmosphere of the seashore with the comforts of home. As someone who has completed a restoration of an old house, I would be very interested in seeing the before and after photos. The weather was typical and atypical for November – rain fog mist rain and brilliant sunshine, exactly what we were looking for, thank you.

What a great cottage. We love the uncrowded beaches and mellow atmosphere of this part of the coast, and already plotting to make it an annual tradition.
