Berni's Ocean View Castle - an Oceanside Legend

Our calendar is updated in real-time & our nightly rates are accurately displayed. Simply enter your desired dates and click 'Book Now!'

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 and DVD player 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!

Great view!

Sunsets at this house are amazing. All three units have great balconies to view the sunset and enjoy the sound of the surf. We used all three units for a church leadership retreat and everyone was happy. My only two 'disappointments' were that you had to go outside to move from unit to unit and I wish it was easier to get to the beach. Otherwise, our stay was fantastic.

Great, quirky home for multiple families

- ridiculously beautiful views of the coast from multiple decks - hot tub with panoramic view of coast - need to be good with managing stairs. 2 units are on same level but the larger unit has many steps -well stocked kitchen -big TVs in main rooms and bedrooms -Alexa speakers throughout the house -we comfortably fit 16 people (some kids sleeping on floors) for multigenerational family vacation -having separate units was great for some added privacy for each of the families -short but hilly walk to the beach

Never disappoints.

Such a great house with great views. So clean and well appointed. LOVE all the pictures on the walls in each unit. We’ve been staying here for 15+ years and will keep coming back. The beach is so beautiful and fun and the tide pools that come out at low tide are awesome (you have to go through the tunnel to get to them). Super easy access to Cape Meares lighthouse area - be sure to spend an afternoon over there, all the sights and hikes are worth seeing/doing.

Perfect set up for our entire family. We had 10 people and having the 3 separate units was great. Main unit perfect for all of us to gather for meals and family time.

80th Birthday Party

This house was great for multiple families who needed their own sleeping areas. Three units with in one house. The door codes given for each unit did not work but after a couple calls to Vacasa they were able to give new codes that worked. After a drive to town where cell service was available. Recommend a back up plan if codes don’t work.

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 😁

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.

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.

Good and not so good

I wanted so bad to love this home, we’ve stayed here before but it’s been several years. Units 1 and 2 were very good. Unit 3 is in need of some help. All the units have great flooring and the walls and trim are in very good condition. The bathrooms also are really nice for a beach house and it was also very clean for a vacation rental. It started off that we couldn’t even access Unit 3 for many hours. It’s not Vacasa’s fault, there is zero cell signal there so no way to contact them for help. After we finally got in, we noticed right away the dining room light fixture didn’t work at all. And there are no other lights over that area. So imagine our disappointment that the main table couldn’t be used for the games and puzzles we’d brought. Vacasa was great and sent out Jeremy right away who was wonderful. He fixed everything he could but it still didn’t work. The owner would have to approve and electrician to replace the fixture but that didn’t happen. When we pay 7 grand for four nights you can imagine how upsetting that was. Unit 3 has multiple other light bulbs out, many screens missing, broken window mechanisms, broken kitchen cabinets, the dishwasher is a broken disaster, so is the faucet on the main sink, no hot pads and no baking sheets. Unit three just needs some TLC, then all future renters will be spared our bad experience.

Great place for multi-generational gathering

Set up is hard to find and very welcome. With three separate units everyone has their own space, privacy and quiet time, but can all gather for meals in the center section. Definitely walkable to the beach and we had some great weather. We would be happy to return.

Fantastic House and Location, but

I had to give it three stars because of non-functioning/maintenance items in the main unit (#3). The grill: the burners were so caked with grease that once we managed to get it lit (the igniter didn't work), it didn't produce enough heat to cook anything. Judging from the build up at the bottom under the burners, the unit had never been cleaned. We had to use the stove both nights, however the exhaust fan above it didn't run, at all. Also the bottom rack of the dishwasher was missing a wheel, so it automatically derailed itself constantly. On a positive note, the new deck off the main unit is a great addition. For $1600+/night I expected working appliances.

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.

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.

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!

Family Celebration

The 3 unique apartments were wonderful to be able to have space between meals. The view is spectacular from each unit. We had 11 adults, 2 kids, 2 dogs Excellent experience for all. The BBQ was out of propane. I called and they said to keep the receipt. Still waiting to hear back on reimbursement for the new tank? Other than that very nice place.

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.

Family perfection in oceanside

We love this property for our family reunions. 7 bedrooms, main room can accommodate all of us for meals, with privacy in the other two units as well. Good cooking kitchen and can feed them all in the main room. Easy walk to the beach. The addition of the new outside deck makes it even more perfect.
