Huge dog friendly castle with ocean view decks 5 minutes to the beach

Summary:

Berni's Ocean View Castle - an Oceanside Legend



The Space:

Planning a group getaway or large family retreat? This remodeled historic castle - a seven-bedroom Oceanside vacation rental - offers spacious gathering areas, a gourmet main kitchen, a dog-friendly attitude, and stunning panoramic ocean views. Thoughtful upgrades include fresh paint, new furniture, and wall art throughout. It is made up of three distinct areas letting your group experience both togetherness and privacy. The main part of this castle features a spacious living area with room for the whole group. Snuggle down into the sectional for an evening of movies, socializing, and relaxing.



Cook a meal for just a few or up to 17 in the gourmet kitchen. There's custom cabinetry, a breakfast bar, and extras like a coffee grinder, mixer and a blender. There is ample room for at least 17 guests to enjoy dinner at the various seating areas in the main level.



You can watch for whales at the cozy window seat or play games and puzzles while you look out at the ocean and Three Arch Rocks National Wildlife Refuge. There are also balconies and many quiet spots throughout this main space to sit with a book and a glass of wine.



In another section of the home, there is a lovely area with a cozy living room, small full kitchen with an eating area under a turret ceiling, a private covered balcony and gorgeous panoramic views.



The third addition also has a beautifully designed living room, dining room, and full kitchen. This part of the castle also has a balcony and ocean views from many of the windows. Berni's Castle is ideal for up to three families or groups traveling together - each can have their own space, but there are plenty of common areas (indoors and out) to socialize as a group. Other amenities throughout the whole home include three sets of washers and dryers, WiFi, a CD player, and an iPod dock. There is a TV in each of the three units, as well as three private deck areas. There is also a large common deck with ocean views and a grill for guest use. Guests can also make unlimited long distance calls in the United States.



From here, it's just a 5-minute walk to beach access. Oceanside boasts a long stretch of sand, perfect for exploring and going on long, leisurely walks. On days you don't feel like cooking, the whole group can wander down to the popular Roseanna's Cafe for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. In nearby Tillamook, you can fish, golf, or sample an array of cheese and ice cream at the Tillamook Cheese Factory. If you want to get out and explore further, take the 40-mile drive along the Three Capes Scenic Route - just expect to stop the car frequently for scenic viewpoints and photo ops.



A stay at this legendary Oceanside vacation home includes gorgeous 180-degree ocean views, modern amenities, and a great location just steps from the sand!

This home was way more than we expected or hoped for. It was a beautiful, well-supplied, excellent place for our 5 families and 5 dogs to come for a family reunion. The views were astounding, and one of our members was a rock hound who happily spent most of his time hunting for rocks and checking out tide pools! Having 5 balconies and all the bedrooms divided between 3 living areas gave everyone plenty of private spaces. The hot tub was wonderful as well! The only negative was all the steps to get to the bottom parking area and to the actual beach proper, but that was not the problem with the house- it just gave us more exercise than we were used to :)

Really nice place and location. Great views and plenty to keep busy on the one bad weather day. Perfect pet and child friendly place. Minor issues were promptly addressed and very timely. Only noted improvement would be to replace grills and clean the draws and cabinets in the kitchens a bit better. Neither were show stoppers for the large group. Fun was had by everyone.

Wonderful Family Reunion site!

Thank you for making this place so perfect for multiple families. It gave everyone the ability to be in their own space as well as ample space to be together. Perfectly located just a short walk to the beach (even for little ones)! We will definitely return!

Great for extended family. Great ocean view.

Excellent views of ocean and arch rocks and a spacious, open common area in the main unit for all of us to gather for meals and gaming. Separate units upstairs provided a space to get away when needed. Less than 10 minutes walk down hill to beach.

Well siuted for large family vacation

Berni's Castle suited our family reunion very well. We rented all 3 apartments so there was space when some people wanted a little more privacy, and plenty of space in the main apartment for all 16 of us, including 2 babies. Berni's Castle has both a 'cottage by the sea' feel, and an up-scale living space once you are inside. The view is glorious. Oceanside is a small out of the way place, but yet close enough to shopping, parks, churches and other amenities.

Family Reunion on the coast

The property was great. We had 15 or so at the coast all coming in from different parts of the country. Everyone loved it. It was great to be able to get everyone together for a big crab feed (we went crabbing near-by and almost limited out), but then everyone could retire to their own space. Great layout for a big group. Outstanding views! We'll be back!

Beautiful view, beautiful place!

Loved our stay! A little farther from the beach than anticipated, about a 5min walk downhill to get there, 10ish min uphill to get back. But the height and short distance make for spectacular beach views. 3 units great for multiple families (especially when trying to social distance). Property manager a little slow to answer questions before check-in, but super quick to respond to minor issues while we were there (battery for smoke alarm, etc) Would definitely recommend!

Great place to have family

Awesome 3 unit home. Close to the beach and had plenty of space for 16 of us. Nice to have units to separate the families into when it was night. Great view of the beach. Close enough to walk down to the beach. Didn't have any contact with the owners but was still very easy to access on check-in. Main unit had everything to cook meals, games, and seating to host everyone in. One of the units did have a little bit of a mold issue in the bathroom. Otherwise everything was great!

Oceanside

The property location was terrific, the house was just so-so, bordering on not OK. Lots of condition issues, including windows, dishwasher, bathroom fixtures that were broken. We paid a premium price for a sub-par accommodation. We’ll come back to Oceanside but won’t be renting this home again.

Will stay again

Great view from the ocean and coastline. Sadly, couldn't enjoy outdoor decks due to weather, but would be awesome on the right day. Good location - beach walkable (but uphill on way back), light house, and good hikes close by. Accommodations were good in all 3 units. Kitchen was good and held up to making meals for 11ppl 3x a day. A few notes: you have to go outside with no cover to walk between units. Made it a bit wet and messy with kids during storms. / If you or someone has mobility issues, the main unit is down a staircase which does get wet.

Memorial for our son

We loved the location and accommodation. Fit our family well while we were there for difficult circumstances. Entry into one of units was not working & since most of us didn’t even have cell service made it difficult to contact. Finally my husband’s phone worked. 2 of the units have ant problems and using taro is not taking care of it, need professional assistance. Bedding should be updated. The few things that weren’t the best circumstances did not take away from enjoying this property immensely. Well maybe the ant situation haha, I absolutely hate them 😁

Family Memorial

The only problem we had was getting into the units. The codes that were given us were not usable and without having a savy family member engineer we would not been able to access any of the units.. We did call and we got someone to get us into the main unit and explained to us that the codes were not correct. But except for that we had a marvelous time and each unit was well equipped and comfortable.

Poorly Cleaned

We quickly noticed upon arrival that one of the beds had not had the sheets changed. There was blood and what looked like semen all over the sheets and duvet cover. This was the worst of it but a few of the other duvet covers had also clearly not been washed and there were large stains on the carpet in all three bedrooms of the lower unit. We spent the first two hours of our stay cleaning sheets, mattress pads and duvet covers as well as getting a hold of Vacasa. They brought new sheets that evening but refused our request for a late checkout or any compensation for the hassle and disgusting start to our stay. The grossness of this incident really tainted our stay and it was hard to imagine that the rest of the place was clean making it hard to relax and enjoy the property.
