'Sands to Reason' at the Sea Gypsy. Electric fireplace! Sleeps 5 with pool
About this condo rental
Unit 325 is a fireplace suite we've nicknamed “Sands to Reason.” It is one of the few condos in our rental pool that can sleep 5 vacationers. There's a queen in the bedroom, a queen in the living area plus a love seat that converts into a twin bed, which we recommend for kids. The two sleeping areas are separated by communicating doors, and there's bathrooms in both spaces. Sands to Reason has a 55-inch TV in the living room, right above the large electric fireplace that gives the unit a soft glow at night. It's a very cozy condo with a nice color scheme — ever heard of Twilight Grey? — and a lot of personal touches from the owner. There's a full kitchen with newly installed pendant lighting. We provide all the cookware and gadgets you need for the Gordon Ramsey in your party — everything except the attitude. This condo is near the south end of the building, giving you not only a great view of the ocean, but also the famous D River. How many properties are both beachfront and riverfront? The D River is special as the shortest river in the world. It runs adjacent to the Sea Gypsy from Devil's Lake into the Pacific. In the summers you can play in the shin-deep waters, and in the winter you can watch salmon migrating upstream. A bald eagle has been spotted stalking the fish each of the past four years. The Sea Gypsy's proximity to the beach cannot be understated. There are three access points in front of this condo that are just a few steps to the sand. Hit the beach and take a 10-minute walk to the north to find natural tide pools with all kinds of surprises. Guests staying in No. 325 Sands to Reason have access to the Sea Gypsy's indoor saltwater swimming pool, plus a sauna. If you feel like getting out of 325's kitchen, there are two gas barbecues on site where you can do some outdoor grilling.

Really enjoy staying at the Sea Gypsy. Can't beat the view and ease of beach access. Very relaxing.

Perfect location with perfect weather for king tides! Everything went well above our expectations. Our group of women got the best rest in forever and had plenty of opportunities to walk the beach as well.
The coffee maker was a standard drip, not Keurig. Worked great!!!

Bombastic! Our 6th year and 7th trip coming here! You can't beat the location, view, accommodations, housekeeping crew and service! We just thought it odd the dvd player was switched to the bedroom instead of the living room where my brother and I can watch dvds together on the 55 inch screen so Sea Gypsy actually had another player installed in the living room which makes more sense and us happy!

The set up was nice with lots of seating. The only change would be if they could do blackout curtains. Great view and it was close to the stairs leading to the beach. Will be back again!

About as close to the beach as you can sleep
The Sea Gypsy is literally right next to the beach, and the view is amazing. The condo is very well-furnished and very clean. If you like your bed firm or soft, one bed of each is ready. If your prefer a bed firmness somewhere in-between, you might try a different condo unit here.

Excellent stay
Perfect location, excellent views and great communication. Communication before arrival was clear and concise. There was a booklet of info in the livingroom. We didn't have to call front desk for anything. Kitchen was stocked very well, except there was no spatula. Plenty of space, extra blankets, etc. Very clean. One problem is that on a door near the back bedroom the door latch plate thing is barely hanging on by screw, our daughter scraped her arm walking by and I snagged my shirt. That should be repaired. Also, the bed in the back room was VERY firm. I slept fine but it was likentent camping on that bed. The bed in the livingroom was softer. We will be back again...excellent stay.

Nice and roomy
Enjoyed our annual mother daughter trip to Lincoln City for Antique Week. Rooms were well appointed and had nice options for sleeping arrangements. The bar in the kitchen allowed room to spread out food and snacks. Coffee pot was clean as well as the counters, appliances, and bathrooms. Cozy rooms, beautiful unheated electric fireplace and surround, and the view from the 3rd floor was wonderful. Enjoyed watching the gulls bathing in the D river and the sanderlings or sandpipers that came out and chased the waves under the floodlight that lit up the waves at night. Extra sheets and blankets were appreciated and used though wonder if previous guests put blankets back without leaving them out to be washed. Batteries in the two clocks in the living room were dead but we just used the clock on the microwave as it wasn't a big deal. The previous guests left the utensils and dishes a little greasy but that's why I always wash dishes before I use them no matter where I go and is no reflection on the hosts. New wi-fi was still a bit spotty but have found this to be true all along the shoreline, just a heads up if you need something steady. Was able to stream music pretty regularly but some websites had trouble loading. Overall, had a wonderful stay and would highly recommend, thank you!

This was our second stay at the Sea Gypsy, but our first at Sands to Reason. We were really happy with the Sands to Reason unit, everything was clean and neat. The view is unbeatable and really helps you maximize your appreciation of staying at the ocean. The huge windows are perfect for sipping coffee in the morning. We'll be back!

The room was very clean and cozy, the only thing that could use an update would be the mattress in the living area. It was most uncomfortable.

Great location right on beach!
Great views from upper floors! Bottom floor has chain link fence view, but still full ocean view. Front desk staff very helpful. Furnishings a little outdated, but great accommodation for the price on day it was booked (nothing else available at price point on the entire coast). Would definitely stay again!

Very nice family stay! Highly recommended.
I stayed there with my daughter and three grandchildren ages 8 and under. The room was very clean, bright and welcoming. The beds were comfy. The kitchenette was pretty well appointed for how small it is. It's easy access to the beach. We especially appreciated the foot wash at the top of the stairs. We spent two days on the beach and one at the riverside. The kids got a kick out of the window washer. We loved the contactless check-in and out. I didn't give it "5 stars" because it's not fancy but it's an excellent choice for a family stay.

Hi! We did enjoy our stay! However the kitchen pots and pans really need to updated. The coating on some of the pans were peeling off which makes them unsafe to cook on so we were unable to prepare all the meals we had planned on making. Other than that everything else was great. Lincoln city itself was a bit of a disappointment. We have been many times but this was the first time we were disappointed. Not by any fault of the business owners but it was difficult to find a place to eat. The outlet malls was a complete disappointment, prices were ridiculous and a lot of stores still closed. We were still glad to make the trip and had a good time but you could tell it was post-COVID. Thanks for letting us stay with you!

I loved everything about this place. The view was amazing. It was clean, great location in Lincoln City. I only wish the rooms were bigger so my whole family of 8 could stay in one room.

Great location
The good: This property was in a great location, right on the beach. The room was large, bigger than a hotel, with two bathrooms. The room has several kitchen items for use if you don't want to eat out each meal.
Needs attention:
Many of the outlets in the room were broken. We had to unplug lights to have enough outlets to charge phone/devices.
The pullout/couch needs attention. There were stains on all areas. The slats on the pullout were broken/detached and the pullout didn't line up with the rest of the couch so we had to put the mattress on a sheet on the floor.
The double door situation between the main room and the bedroom isn't ideal. I get why it is there but the location where the three doors meet causes the doors to hit each other.
Overall: The pros of this room definitely outweigh the cons. The cons could be fixed by a day of maintenance, outside of a normal cleaning.

The location of this condo is amazing and right on the beach. The listing is accurate and the pictures fairly represent what you are renting. The curtains in both rooms need replacing. The curtains in the bedroom are broken and don’t close all the way, while the metal rings on the curtains & the curtain rod on the main room are very rusted. Although guests are responsible for washing dishes, the staff should check them periodically to see if they are clean. A number of dishes we pulled out needed rewashing.

This was a great property. So close to the beach and the tide pools. It had all the amenities that we needed. My only 2 comments (not complaints, as we were very happy with our stay), are:
1) We specifically booked this particular room because it had a fireplace. However, when we got there, the fireplace was disable to not put out heat, and it was for ambience only. I understand the premise for it, but it would have been nice if we were told that ahead of time, I may have selected a different room.
2) The room was decorated in a very homey way...lots of pictures and knickknacks. While that makes it feel a lot more comfortable, it was not cleaned well, so it was very dusty.

Ive been coming to the sea gypsy for just about 7 years at least once per year sometimes multiple times. I have always loved it. However, this time, the bedding looked and smelled dirty in the front room. My partner and I moved the back bedding to the front room, but given the current times, it would be much better if the bedding looked and smelled clean.

RestfulWith An Ocean View
I loved my time here! The ocean & river view kept me blissed out the whole time. Comfy bed and fully stocked kitchen were excellent. I only had a couple issues: noisy neighbors til after 11pm, the hot water was only lukewarm, and electric fireplace didn't work. I called management about the fireplace and water and they fixed the problem the next day. They were highly responsive and resolved the problem so quickly; I was deeply appreciative. The noisy neighbors sucked. While the room was wonderful, it is a popular spot and busy location with public beach access next door. All in all, I'd rate my room, #325, the highest possible marks. If you're wanting a quiet visit, someplace else would be better.

Wonderful!
Sands to Reason was a wonderful location for our family's spring break. The lady at the front desk was helpful and friendly. The unit was clean and well stocked with pots and pans. There wasn't a 9x13 pan, which would have been helpful but we made do with the other cookware. There was plenty of bedding and towels for everyone. The view just can't be beat. I'm sure we'll be back.

Great beach access!
We loved the beach access! The room was clean but very dated, the beds were super uncomfortable - and you can hear the neighbors loud and clear- the staff was great to work with super customer service- and the pool was fun- we loved the view from the room but found the furnishings quite awful- we are going back and will try a different condo next time-
