Dunecastle - Private Setting and Coastal Views (no direct dune access)

"The view from the deck was outstanding. Very close to the dunes. BEAUTIFUL house. Will stay again. Will recommend to everyone who wants to come to North Bend with a big group!" - Denice, Aug 2020

Experience the seclusion and serenity of this large house surrounded by nature. It is in a quiet, private location with views of a lake, a dune, and the ocean. You will not have to leave the house to enjoy the Oregon Coast view, but you will need to drive to the dunes or the beach. This house is very special, and we ask all guests to stay with care. We want your stay to be wonderful—please review the important notes about this house before booking to make sure it matches what you’re looking for.

Important Notes About This House — Please Read Before Booking

Our home is a custom-built retreat from the 1980s, crafted in part with salvaged redwood timbers from a historic Northern California mill. It offers a rustic, one‑of‑a‑kind experience close to nature and stunning coastal views.

Accessing the Property
The house is reached by a half‑mile gravel road off Highway 101. The road may have potholes, and there are two neighbors, so please drive slowly and carefully.

Property Access
Guests have full access to the entire home, except for the garages and outbuildings. There is a large field where you can park overflow vehicles, but it is not visible from the house.

Master Shower Window
The master bathroom shower features a large window that looks out toward the dunes and ocean. While it can feel exposed at first, this area is on a private section of the deck accessible only to your group and not visible to neighbors or the public.

Lower Level Bedroom
Bedroom 4 is located on the lower level and includes a queen bed and a half bath. Because this level is tucked into the hillside, it can sometimes have a musty odor. If you are sensitive to such smells, this space may not be the best fit.

Wildlife & Bats
In spring and summer, small bats sometimes roost in the cedar siding. To keep them outside, we recommend keeping windows and doors without screens closed at night. If a bat does find its way indoors, don’t panic—it will usually circle while looking for an exit and may settle high in the loft ceiling. Please let us know if this happens; however, due to the ceiling height, we may not always be able to remove it immediately.

Your Hosts
We live nearby and are just a phone call away if you need anything. Otherwise, the home is all yours to enjoy in privacy.
The vacation home is heated and features a kitchen, 3 bathrooms, and a balcony. There's space to spread out with 4 bedrooms and a dining area. Other standard amenities include a washing machine, a coffee maker, and an ironing board.

Fantastic weekend at the Dunecastle

We were fortunate enough to be here on a beautiful weekend with blue skies and comfortable warm weather in late September. The home has beautiful large-window views of the forest, lakes, dunes and distant ocean. The home is secluded so you don’t have to worry about bothering the neighbors or being quiet at a certain time. The home had lots of nice touches, the beds were comfortable, and everything worked well. There was plenty of parking for the five vehicles. We were there with a group of 9 people

Sweet secluded spot!

A group of us celebrating a couple 40th birthdays had a blast at this giant house! Quiet and away from everyone, yet a close drive to Coos Bay or Charleston bay.

Beautiful views, not very clean

The house had cob webs in every corner, very out-dated, smelled of mold. Most windows didn’t have screens, screen doors were broken or ripped. Other than that, the property manager was very kind and communicative. I just think the house needs a good deep clean and a little updating/renovation.

Loved / Disappointed

Although a great location, private, and quirky 70’s house … * When we walked in the strong musty smell was hard to ignore. Immediately opened all of the windows. The laundry room smelled of mildew. Left windows open most of the time, musty smell not as strong. * Deck was awesome, but in need of maintenance/repair. Several boards were rotten. Moved benches over those areas to prevent walking on. Paint chipped and peeling. * Threshold from dining room to kitchen was split, broken and loose. Covered with rug to prevent tripping. * Lower windows in dining rm smeared with child handprints, looked like they had played in syrup. * Cobwebs in many of the windows. * There was rodent poison in the top drawer of desk in one of the bedrooms. Downstairs bedroom smelled particularly bad, like something dead. * Shower curtain in one bathroom looked like someone got into a fight with it, was all twisted up and hanging off several of the hooks. * No blender as advertised. Called contact number as instructed, left message asking for assistance to locate blender. Did not receive a call back. The living room area had great seating, nice library, and fabulous view. Kitchen was large, plenty of room for gathering and cooking. Loved the double sinks and bank of windows.

Yearly Dunes Trip

Todd and Greta were great hosts, the house was just as listed. We loved the location without any neighbors extremely close to be bothered by our kids. Would recommend this house for all functions. Lots of parking for trailers down the hill before the house in the field. Not a lot of room up at the house to turn a trailer around, plan on disconnecting your trailer in the field below the house to make it easier if you have more than one trailer in your group. We had 3 20’ plus long trailers and did not know what the parking was at the house.

Cabin In The Woods

The home was as described. Very large and spread out. You don’t feel like you are on top of each other. She has been well loved over the years and we found her quirky and mysterious. So, not everything is in pristine shape but she was fully stocked. If you like an aged wine and appreciate good bones with breathtaking views, then look no further. Only down side was we had an unexpected visitor but we’re able to scoot him out the door. Only after he scared the life out of us for knocking over the fire wood and farting towards us.

So much space!

We had plenty of space for our family of 8. We had family members that live in the area come out to visit and the house was accommodating for that. The view is spectacular and the house is totally private from any neighbors! I would stay here again!

Annual trip to Southwest Oregon

We come up every year to stay in the area. Usually we do a motel in Reedsport. This time we decided to get a house for logistical purposes. Dune Castle exceeded our expectations with its size and location gorgeously perched atop Beale Lake with views to the Pacific. We found the house great for adults and children. Perfect for cooking breakfast, bbq or reading on the loft enjoying the volume of the space and epic sunsets. Location was great medt to Steve’s ATVs which the kids loved and close by to Hilltop House and Clausen Oysters. The laundry room was excellent. The wrap around deck was another cool feature enabling guests to pop out for fresh air and view no matter where you are in the house. Thanks for having us. We would certainly stay again.

Sibling Reunion

Coming from a large family of 8 siblings, we gather together annually to tell stories, offer different perspectives of our formative years and just to catch up with the passing of time. This property also allowed the joining in by a sister who lives in Coos Bay. Excellent facility, well presented, clean and very welcoming for what we experienced. Good times.
