About this property

Big Bold House on the Dunes, Easy Walk to the Mighty Pacific Ocean

You and your loved ones are invited to spend your vacation enjoying some of the most spectacular views of the Washington coast from our comfortable beach home! Located just off the beach in Ocean City, just minutes from Ocean Shores proper, we're sure you'll have an unforgettable time at the shore.

ABOUT THE OCEAN TRAILS GETAWAY

With 3 full bedrooms and 2 bathrooms, this home comfortably accommodates up to 9 guests. A king in the master bedroom, and two queens, a twin, and a sleeper sofa are all available to ensure even large groups get a good night's rest.

The living area features large windows, looking out onto a deck, and beyond, the waters of the Pacific Ocean. Whether you want to enjoy the view from the deck on a balmy summer night, or engage in some cozy storm watching in the winter, you'll remember the stunning views for the rest of your life. A wood stove is available for use year round.

MORE ABOUT OCEAN TRAILS GETAWAY

Ocean Trails Getaway is pet friendly (with our standard per dog, per night fee), so feel free to bring your furry friends along to the beach with you! They'll love it just as much as you will. Plus, what's a vacation without your ENTIRE family?!

You'll find a contemporarily appointed kitchen, featuring recent appliances, including an icemaker for your summer beverages. Cook a big meal (or get takeout from one of the many great local restaurants) and gather at the dining table looking out to sea.

Whether you're planning a big family outing or just visiting the shore with your friends, we think you'll leave Ocean Trails Getaway with memories to last a lifetime!

Dogs are welcome with a standard per dog, per night fee.

ABOUT OCEAN CITY

When booking any of our properties in Ocean City, you are just miles away from endless options for seaside activities. When bringing your friends or family along, we're sure that each and every one of you will find an adventure worth diving into.

Visiting during the warm weather? Get ready for the best time of the year to visit us. Ocean City is also a great spot for bird watching. The Pacific Northwest offers great spots for bird watchers.

Ocean Shores is also just a short drive away. You can rent a moped or bike and take a ride into town, where you'll find the main drag. Here you'll find locally hand-crafted meals served in the town's restaurants, as well as boutiques filled with souvenirs to take home!

The warmer days also mean horseback riding along the beach or whale watching tours, all within a short distance.

Want to head to the beach during Winter, too? That's not a problem! The views are just as beautiful and it's still a great getaway from your every day life. The main drag is still just as active with bowling alleys, shops and galleries to keep you busy.

If you're looking for an unclean house in disrepair, look no further. Read all the negative reviews, as they are true. As soon as we got in, or socks we're collecting dog hair from the floor (as it had not been cleaned). The fireplace in the bottom floor did not work. Luckily, there is central heating. Also, the bottom floor TV does not have cable. Tons of dust and dog hair under furniture; no deep cleaning done. One of the towel bars in the downstairs bathroom is broken and the vent grate in the ceiling was not screwed in all the way. The shower hardware is also rusting. One of the swivel sofa chairs in the upstairs is tilted at an angle that makes it uncomfortable to sit in. The stove has only two actual burners; the other half is a grill, which didn't produce much heat at all. This made cooking for a large group difficult. Just the basic salt and pepper in the cabinet, so bring your own spices. The knife set was good though. The view is great from the large deck. Short 10-15 min walk to the beach. Make sure your trace your steps back to the house as the trail goes through some brush. You have access to the garage (one remote), which is a plus. I'm conclusion, great place if you just need a bed and beach access. Not so great place if you want cleanliness, working appliances, multiple cable and TV's.

Family retreat
Wonderful and private location. 6 adults, we enjoyed walks to the beach, view of the ocean and weather conditions. Convenient kitchen, dining table for games and plenty of seating for enjoying a movie together.

Making the best out of it
My family and I enjoyed our time together here, however there were lots of issues with the functionality of the home and it was not very clean. Our son had an allergic reaction the first evening there, the window seals and bathroom have mold and moss. The master shower is rusting, the curtains have pink mold. The master bath was in very very bad shape. The two burners on the stove would not work no matter what we did to remedy it, there’s tons of grease in the vent of the stove top. It was very cold in the basement, the heat doesn’t work, the wood stove would not light. The fan to move upstairs heat doesn’t work. There was a a ton of dust all over the house. We made the best of our stay and we appreciate having the time to get away but the home requires attention and updates.
