Waterfront home w/ ocean views, hot tub & fireplace - dogs welcome!
Welcome to one of the first oceanfront and highest quality-built homes in Westport! Expansive views over the ocean await you from its two engineered wrap-around decks, perfect for watching fishing and crabbing vessels on the horizon or spotting a gray whale breach. This home is unique in that it offers three oceanfront bedrooms with patio doors leading out to their own private decks. Four full bathrooms and two water heaters provide ample hot showers and baths for a full house. Two separate eating spaces face the ocean and walls of windows on the front face of the house afford breathtaking views from all the main living areas. Bask under its towering wood-beamed ceilings, explore the railed second landings and widow’s walk, and enjoy its ornate stained glass, wood paneling, and solid oak floors. The wood throughout and the wood-burning fireplace give 401 Dune Crest a warm, rustic feeling.
401 Dune Crest is the closest house on South Beach to the prime surfing spot next to Westhaven Jetty and to Westport Light State Park, and a 1.3-mile, mostly paved path to the Jetty, Half Moon Bay, and the charming fishing town of Westport. Walk along the boardwalk of Westport Marina, the largest coastal marina in the Pacific Northwest. Gaze at the colorful fleet of fishing vessels and the sea lions at play in the marina or book your own ocean charter fishing trip. Tour Grays Harbor Lighthouse, the Westport Aquarium, and the Maritime Museum. Surfing, fishing, clamming, and beach-combing await you in your own backyard at 401 Dune Crest. Dogs are welcome with an additional nightly fee.
Additional amenities include a private hot tub, a treadmill, board games, books, movies, kites, and sand toys. A damage waiver, covering up to $2,000 of accidental damage to the property or its contents, is included in the cost of your reservation. This rental is located on floor 2.

We gathered from four states, hoping we had picked a good property. We were not disappointed. The location was spectacular with ocean views and beach access. The home was comfortable, well-maintained, and well equipped. The great room was ideal for sharing stories. The dining area was spacious. The views from the patio were outstanding and we even had a couple of deer spend a morning nearby. We were all sorry to leave.

Our family got together here at this wonderful beach house. There was lots of room, beds and couches were comfy, tv and WiFi worked fine. Hit tub was excellent and you just can’t beat the view and beach access!
Lori H.Aug 2021
The house met all our expectations. There is double bed and queen in one of the upstairs bedrooms which worked out great, giving us ample sleeping space. The kitchen worked well for all the cooks and family to visit during meal time. Only exception was when we discovered water coming from under sink. It was reported and dealt with quickly, but no plumber was available. So no water from sink on our last day, reason behind 4 stars instead of 5. The trail to beach is kind of makeshift, so be careful when going down/up. We had foggy cool weather for most of stay. Hot tub worked great for these nights. It was nice seeing family for first time in over a year, perfect place for get together.
Manager response:
Hi Lori, We appreciate you leaving your feedback with us. the kitchen leak has been addressed. We will be suggesting some replacements for items in the unit to the owners. Thank you for staying with us!
Kelsey B.Aug 2021
Loved the outdoor space and how it was right on the beach. Perfect for our large family and the dogs.
Jean J. G.Jun 2021
This how was the perfect getaway for our family. Room for everyone and a nice large “gathering” table. We spent hours playing games and flying kites on the beach. Thank you for sharing your home!!
Jessica S.May 2021
Beautiful views, well stocked home, the perfect reprieve
Amy B.May 2021
We all enjoyed our stay! The house is beautiful, clean, spacious, and comfortable. The kitchen is very well stocked. The beach toys, good books, hot tub, and board games were a fun bonus. We loved the easy beach access. This is the perfect home-away-from-home for a large group. We'll be back!
Sally S.Apr 2021
We absolutely loved our stay at Westport. The house we were in couldn't have been better. The view was spectacular and the ocean was a bonus.
Jean G.Mar 2021
Beautiful location to hear the waves and water hitting the beach. Perfect for a ladies getaway. Private and roomy. Bring your own spices .
Chris C.Mar 2021
This was our family getaway long overdue. Our winter weather was amazing with high winds & rains yet we were warm and protected from the storms! We were surprised that the home was so insulated and quiet through it all. Everyone had a comfortable bed & bath to use. Very roomy, almost like a lodge!
The kitchen was pretty complete and a favorite place to gather. We brought a 1000 piece puzzle "almost" completed on the dining table donated to the next family as a gauntlet thrown out & challenge to see if you can get it done before you leave. Good ocean fun and the crabbing opened up by the weekend in time for us to have a feast & bring pounds home. Thank you Vacasa, Kate & her Team!!

Everything was prefect, even though the home hasn’t been updated since the 80s. Pictures were accurate, and it has an awesome ocean view from the hot tub. The hot tub was super clean and large. Note the dunes are washed out and it’s very difficult to get down to the beach. There is a six foot drop and it would be nice if there was a ladder there to make it easier to get to the beach. Probably not ideal for young children or those who are not somewhat mobile.
Amanda C.Dec 2020
We enjoyed our stay at this house. It was well furnished and has great rooms. We were disappointed that it's hard to see through the salt spray on the windows, but we lucked out and were able to enjoy the beautiful view from the deck.
A couple of things worth noting: the beach access doesn't exist anymore. The path leads to a 8-foot drop off with no way to access the beach. We had to use the access by the condos. Not a big deal, but disappointing and a little inconvenient.
Some of the beds are very soft, such as the one down stairs. If you have somebody unable to go up stairs, then they need to be comfortable in soft beds. We ended up shifting rooms after the first night.
Bring your own wood and matches for the fireplace.
Overall, we really enjoyed our stay. We spent a lot of time in the hot tub, on the deck watching the waves, and some time walking along the beach. We also made all our meals in the home and the kitchen was supplied well enough that we didn't have any trouble cooking. And the living room is comfortable with a large TV (but the overhead lights seem to be burned out so it is a little dark for reading).
Manager response:
Thank you for your review, Amanda! We are so glad you enjoyed your stay with us. This home sits directly on the Pacific Ocean, and sea spray is constant in winter months. During the third week of November, the Washington Coast experienced something known as King Tides, and the 40 foot waves eroded the coastline of Westport severely. Again, local operations can't control the weather or reconstruct sand dunes that are part of public land. The light switches for the overhead fan lights are located on the top of the stairs leading to the second floor; we will make sure they are working. We hope to see you again!
Tricia B.Nov 2020
We loved how well-equipped the kitchen ones we love the hot tub we loved having private space and public space we loved the view
Kevin D.Oct 2020
We had a wonderful time at this oceanfront home in Westport. Plenty of space, cozy atmosphere, big kitchen and dining room and easy access to the beach. We will be back!
Sarah O.Oct 2020
This house is absolutely beautiful! Lots of space, comfortable beds and furnishings. The location right on the beach can't be beat. We could walk right out the back onto the mostly empty beach, the sound of the ocean filled the house, and we could watch the waves from the very nice hot tub (which is partially protected from the weather by the upper deck). We brought our dog with us and he loved this place, too (especially the little dog friendly touches: food and water bowls, a bed, bags, and baby gates to block off the deck). This is a great spot for an off-season trip like ours (October), as the beaches are virtually empty. The kitchen had all the basics for cooking and the house was just easy to deal with in general.
Roti L.Sep 2020
Outstanding location with it's direct access to the beach. The home is warm with an open layout inviting engagement but still has many spots for anyone seeking a little "me" time. For those who might have pet allergies (like myself) the pet-friendly home might give some pause, however, because of the wood floors and the overall clean upkeep of the home, I did not experience much/if any allergic reaction. Having a master on the main was a huge plus for anyone with mobility problems. The hot tub was clean and well maintained, though do note it is directly out front from the sliding door of the master bedroom on the lower/main floor so choose your room wisely if you don't want to deal with late-night hot tubing right outside your room. Also for some reason, the lower master bedroom did not have curtains or drapes so privacy can be an issue (for tubers and those in the bedroom alike). Over-all this home is an outstanding value. Would happily rent again.
Casandra C.Sep 2020
The house was perfect! It was large enough to fit 10 adults comfortably. The beach was steps away. Three of the bedrooms have sliding glass doors perfect for listening to the waves at night. My family will be back next year.
Catherine T.Aug 2020
Great location with easy beach waterfront access. We loved having the deck space, enough bathrooms and fires on the beach.
Minimal supplies were available for our large group for six days. You may need to bring trash bags, dishwasher soap, etc.
Very relaxing spot and we loved the beach!
William B.Aug 2020
Amazing as usual. Loved the additional bed in one of the upstairs bedrooms. Also loved the driftwood for steps down to the beach. This home is becoming an annual event for us, definitely be back. Thanks so much.
Kyle L.Jul 2020
Loved this house and the location. This house sits right on a really beach which is also the least populated beach I have ever been to. Loved taking my dogs and kids for walks when it felt like we were almost the only ones out there. In regards to the house itself, it is really big for starters considering the amount of bedrooms. I have rented a decent amount of houses in the past and the beds here were easily among the most comfortable I’ve ever experienced. Everything was well cared for and maintained.
The only minor quibbles is similar to another review from July 20202 in that we were given a code for the lock box that did not work, but the property manager quickly resolved that. Still, getting the code right should not be something that is an issue. Also, the cable TV was not working while we were there which was a little disappointing. I could be wrong, but I am pretty tech savvy and I don’t think there was a technology glitch. I think the cable was simply not activated at all. Pro tip though, the blu ray player gives you access to Netflix and Amazon Prime and don’t forget to check the cabinet underneath the TV as there is a very decent blu ray/DVD selection. If you plan on seriously cooking through, especially steak, bring your own steak knives and cutting board. The steak knives provided are barely sharp enough to cut bread and unless we missed it there was not cutting board at all.
Otherwise though this is a great house, especially for the money, and the location location is amazing. Drive slow in the area though as we saw deer every day we were there which was pretty awesome. We will will easily book this house again in the future
Manager response:
Hi, Kyle! We are so delighted you enjoyed your stay! The cable appears to be working at this time as does the lockbox; please do not hesitate to reach out about these issues so we can assist you. New steak knives and a new cutting board have been placed in the kitchen. Thank you!
Dorothy H.Jul 2020
This great house provided everything we needed for a 6 night beach getaway for our family of 11. We spent the entire time at the house or the beach, just a short walk away. Upper and lower decks with ocean views bookended each day. The hot tub was a sweet bonus. Kitchen is fully stocked. Bathrooms include good towels and beach towels too. Doggie bowls, bed and towel are a nice addition. This home was clean, comfortable, and well-maintained. I’d definitely stay here again.
Amanda D.Jul 2020
This is the perfect place to stay if you're looking for a relaxing get away. The house is beautiful and just a short drive from wineries and the town of Westport. We had several children with us and they also had a fantastic time! We ran into a couple of hiccups (couldn't open the lock box to access the key and the propane for the grill was empty), both of which were taken care of quickly and efficiently by property management. We'll definitely stay here again in the future.
Brenda J.Mar 2020
Plenty of room and well stocked with items you may need and have forgotten to bring with! Love the views
Elizabeth W.Mar 2020
Wonderfullu spacious house full of light. Kitchen fully stocked with utensils and pots needed for cooking, plus cutlery and dishes. Beds comfortable. We had a large family group of nine, and loved the large table for meals, games and just talking. Wonderful experience!
Anna H.Feb 2020
Thank you!
John G.Dec 2019
Had a wonderful time, views were outstanding, even the weather was great. The grandchildren directed a tree and we left it there for the next quests.
The only problem was the oven, did not heat up enough to cook the turkey, but we had brought a grill and problem was solved.
Manager response:
We have verified the oven is working correctly and apologize for any difficulties you experienced. Thank you!
Julia M.Dec 2019
We had a great time celebrating a belated friendsgiving! The house was so incredibly cozy (loved the fireplace). Nicely stocked kitchen. I recommend booking this place for a good getaway!
Danielle T.Nov 2019
This was a great find! The house is close the the water, the waves were so impressive and the beach was perfect for looking for shells! Plenty of space in the house and the kitchen was the best stock kitchen I have ever been in.
Janet I.Nov 2019
The view is amazing and there is a short, private trail to the beach. The house was sparkling clean and the kitchen fully stocked with pots and pans plus lots of spices. My son brought his puppy and there were special towels and mats left out for her. Lots of games and a huge big screen tv. Never used the hot tub, but the heater was lit and bubbling. Coffee on the deck each morning looking out at the crashing waves was wonderful!
Karen R.Nov 2019
Beautiful location and a beautiful house. Such a wonderful, relaxing weekend!
Holly Z.Nov 2019
Good location..beautiful interior...just an overall great experience. Loved it and definitely helped us accomplish the kind of break we needed from the real world 😊

We loved it. So did the kids. All the amenities are perfect. Well stocked kitchen. Hot Tub!!
AMY F.Aug 2019
Wonderful to be SO right at the beach. Bike riding was pure pleasure. All 3 dogs absolutely LOVED the freedom and the wind.
Lacee K.Aug 2019
I only wished I could’ve stayed longer. Perfect view, very quiet empty beach, plenty of room for a large group, plenty to do between walk the trail, stick our feet in the water, relax in the hot tub, cook, and play board games. We never left the house!
Kelly D.Aug 2019
This home was perfect for our family gathering. Plenty of sleeping places and bathrooms. Met the needs of all ages and physical abilities. The sunsets were spectacular and the neighborhood quiet. We would return.
Nancy L.Jun 2019
Much effort was made to make this a welcoming, charming home. We all were so happy, simply enjoying the house and beach.
kelly h.May 2019
We had a large party of 14 people. Three of the bedrooms have water views! Everyone had a lot of privacy. The common areas sat everyone and the home was very comfortable.
