Cozy beach cottage near Port Townsend!

the location and beach access is great... but the house is a quirky 1950s era beach house

Loved the shabby chic French country inspired cottage on the water and beach access, with big views and lots of out of door spaces to enjoy. The beds were warm and cozy. The spaces generous to enjoy with friends. I'd come back for sure. Next time in the summer when we can enjoy the beach and outdoor dining options. Loved it!

Staying here was a truly wonderful experience. Communication with the hosts was excellent before, during, and after our stay. The property was exactly as advertised, though the photos did not begin to capture the beauty and serenity of this place. The hosts have provided everything a guest could want, including board games, books, binoculars, and spotter guides. The view was spectacular, the furnished deck was wonderful for barbequing and watching the stars, and the access to a very lovely private beach was the best perk of all. The neighborhood was quiet, and everyone we passed had a warm smile. The drive from the Port Townsend Ferry was only 20 minutes, with plenty of dining, grocery, and fuel options between the home and town. Overall, it was one of the best stays we have had. We are hoping to return to enjoy it again in the wintertime.

Nice lakefront cabin. Has a patio overlooking the lake and steps that go down to the beach. Wide windows that give sweeping views of the water. Parking is right in front of the house. The host was very communicative and responsive and flexible with our check in time.

The location was perfect. So close to any activities you might want to participate in close to the beach. The home had a beautiful view, kitchen and bathroom was well stocked with what we needed. Plenty of places to be together in a group and/or have private time to yourself.

You supplied everything we needed and more. We didn’t watch TV. We enjoyed THE NATURE SHOW from your big windows. We gave dyed you with a (complete) deck of cards. We’ve decided to pack a knife sharpener next time we rent from any site. We understand knives get used and abused.

The hosts were very communicative, ensuring that we were happy and comfortable! The view of the water, with nice beach access was great!

This beach cottage was perfect for our 40th anniversary getaway. The vibe is comfy and unpretentious. I loved! all the books-even Nancy Drew! We loved watching the tides on our inlet, and enjoyed a fire on the beach one night. Very quiet and peaceful. I also loved the well stocked kitchen, as we prefer to cook and eat in at the end of a long day exploring the Olympic Park and its incredible trees.

Owners were very communicative, easy to work with, and everything worked as they said. College buddy and I used it as a place to crash in between golf rounds at Dungeness, White Horse, and Port Ludlow. Location was quiet, accommodations were comfortable, and it had everything we wanted/needed. The beach view/access was great and we even caught some red crab off the rocks down the beach by the campsite with a crab snare (didn’t keep them though). It’s a classic cottage size and feel and I would definitely go back again.

We loved our trip to the Sandcastle! Gorgeous views, comfy beds, and long walks along the beach made for a peaceful family vacation. We took day trips to Port Townsend and to Bainbridge Island to catch the Seattle Ferry. We also hiked Anderson Lake State Park which was gorgeous. All in all there is so much to do here and the Sandcastle was the perfect headquarters for our adventures. The kids loved the water at high tide and had lots of fun exploring low tide. Great opportunity to unplug and enjoy nature.

We spent most of our time w our son and his family , from Port Townsend. The grandkids loved exploring the water. We enjoyed sitting on the deck or by the water. It was super relaxing. We took short day trips to Fort Warden,Fort Flagler and Port Gamble. Spent a day in Port Townsend. All was perfect

We loved this cottage. It is steps from the beach. Two nice decks to enjoy outside and two huge windows to enjoy from inside. It is located on a subtle cove which birds loved. The cottage is very well appointed with everything you may need. We will return sometime in the future. Also, it is only 13/4 hr from SeaTac.

We had a lovely time at the cabin... a couple great grandchildren came to visit us before heading home to Montana. THEEverything worked fine and the a

We had a lovely time in this sweet little house! The owners are very responsive and helpful with suggestions for the area. We loved being able to enjoy some time on the beach watching the birds and otters!

spectacular views

My kids and I absolutely adored our stay at the Sandcastle. Clean, cozy, wonderfully decorated and thoughtful touches. The beach access was just as close as the pictures make it seem and the house was well stocked with everything you could need. We made so many happy memories there and can’t wait to return!

What a cute and cozy place. The listing is exactly what is promised. Everything you’d need and more. Some sweet little extra touches. The view is incredible, we saw lots of
