Dog-friendly beachfront cabin with ocean views & private path to beach
About this house rental
Located in Copalis Beach, this charming house for $201 per night is a great choice for your next break. Rocks Cabin Our calendar is updated in real-time & our nightly rates are accurately displayed. Simply enter your desired dates and click 'Book Now!' Rocks Cabin is a unique, rustic home located on a one-acre beachfront lot. Situated 50 feet above sea level, the home is approximately 200 feet from the sand dunes, affording a great perch and unobstructed view of the beach, surf, and ocean sights. Described as a botanical paradise with completely native old-growth vegetation, including false Lily of the Valley, Indian Celery, various types of rainforest ferns, flowers, and native plants. Tucked in the old-growth Sitka Spruce Conifers, privacy is optimum. This home is an ideal spot for bird-watching, and winter storm-watching is incredible! The roar of the surf can be amazing, even from inside the cabin. The cabin itself is rustic in decor, with a wood-burning fireplace. Electric heat is also available to ensure your comfort. A ladder with a handrail takes you to the loft area, which offers two twin beds. The ladder has a 250 lb. weight limit. Below Rocks Cabin is a long and wide expanse of gorgeous shoreline that, even in the height of summer, you may find you have all to yourself. This beach is also the only designated light airplane airstrip on the entire Pacific Coast, so get ready for airway commuters to drop in for a morning spring razor clam dig. Gray whales migrate by Copalis in April/May and Oct/Nov. The blows can be seen with the naked eye from the cabin, but bring binoculars to get better views. The well-maintained private path to the beach is utterly delightful! Take a nice stroll through towering trees and blossoming vegetation with seasonal babbling brooks. You are just over five miles from the quaint town of Pacific Beach to the north, about 45 minutes from Lake Quinault and its beautiful trails through the rainforest, and a short drive to Ocean Shores, where you will find the Casino, many restaurants, and activities for the kids.

We've been visiting this beach for > 30 years and love it. We've stayed at the Rocks Cabin several times and always have a great time. The location, views and access to the beach are all top shelf. The cabin isn't shiny and new so as long as you're open to a charming cabin with a few imperfections and not the Ritz Carlton you'll have a great visit.

Very cute little cabin. We loved how close it was to the beach and we had it mostly to ourselves! One of the upstairs beds was more comfortable than the other but the girls just decided to share instead. It was the perfect excuse to sit and read while listening to the waves and rain.

Rustic? Yes. But that's ok. The view, the sense of privacy, dog friendly and the beach access are why we will keep coming back. We've previously spent 2 New Years Eves at the Rocks, this trip was Christmas.
We made most of our meals at the cabin. We had a good supper at the Green Lantern Tavern which is a few miles away. We also discovered that the Copalis Beach Grocery had everything we needed and a trip to Ocean Shores wasn't needed.

We had a gorgeous few days on the coast in this cabin. We felt like we had truly escaped the real world while we were there. The cabin was clean and comfortable despite its old-house quirks and the location was unlike anywhere else we’ve ever been. We wanted privacy and we got it. We wanted the beach and we got it. We throughly enjoyed the VHS collection and the blackberries growing EVERYWHERE. We watched hummingbirds dart through the tree tops from the deck and were lulled to sleep by the surf every night- and some afternoons, too. We hope to be back some day.

The little cabin is comfortable, and this visit was our third (I think). It was quiet for the most part -- except for us -- we had to get accustomed to the screen door, as it banged shut a few times, very loudly. It's not a slow close screen like we are used to. Also, the doors were a little hard to close quietly as well.
The stairs and the walk down to the beach isn't that steep for 70+ year old knees, one just needs to be careful. Railings were put in, so, easier to get up and down. Instead of packing our beach chairs up and down each day, we left them at the bottom of the stairs.
We were greeted at the door with a sign that read "please take off your shoes" -- well, we always bring indoor and outdoor shoes, so we weren't quite sure if that meant we had to go shoeless inside. One of us has neuromas on the soles of each foot, so walking around barefoot or in thin soled slippers gets painful (it's like walking on marbles).
The cabin provides the basics that you'd expect to find. No shortage of blankets, soaps, towels, kitchen items, etc. Luxury gourmet? No. It is comfortably rustic, just enough 'things' to get the job done. Unless we are flying, we always bring our own utensils, pans, kettle, and dishes that fit the pre-planned menu items, & our camping box is always ready to go, anywhere, anytime.
And, FYI, no sign of critters inside the cabin. Spiders though. For an old cabin, it's clean. Leave tips for the cleaners . . .
before leaving the sound of the ocean . . .

The view is beautiful. The cabin not so much. I paid $344 a night for this place. What did I get? Worn out pillows and sheets and a mattress so old that the sides had broken down. The driveway was a dangerous disaster. Supposed to be a circular driveway but the car couldn’t handle the steep incline and loose gravel and we forced to turn around in a very tiny space with much difficulty. On one side of the driveway is a deep hole at about the area when a car door is opened. One could break a leg or damage a car in that hole. Doors are cracked and split and some are unpainted. Sofas are nice. Tables appear to be goodwill rejects with no paint in areas. Only one lamp could be used for reading at night. No safety bars at the tub or toilet. Floors VERY uneven and boards on the deck uneven enough to cause one to trip and fall. Some windows were dirty and dining table had not been cleaned well from previous renters. The garbage can was completely full when we arrived I have rented coastal properties with views that were far better for far less This construction of this cabin appears to have begun more than 50 years ago and never finished. It appears to have been a DIY project by someone who did not understand how to build something. This experience has shown me the kind of properties you represent and the high rates you charge for a subpar rental. We will not be doing business again

If you love a natural, private, unplugged beach experience, this is wonderful. The accommodations are clean and comfortable with expansive views and the calming sound of waves. We made a fire in the wood burning stove after an evening of strolling the beach. We
found many sand dollars along the way. We'd love to return!

We had a nice stay. It was the first time we brought our dogs on a weekend get away. I was pleasantly surprised upon arrival that since it was a property that allowed pets that it didn’t smell like it. It was a little tough having to leash / walk the dogs to go potty. There’s really not a good spot on the property to let them out to do their thing. But it wasn’t the end of the world. Even though there are other properties within the gated area that this cabin is located, you still have the quiet / private feeling. The trail down to the beach was very well kept and it was nice to have such quick access. Both days we were there, there were quite a number of people out on the beach with their vehicles for either fishing or clamming so that was a little disappointing as we had hoped for less traffic since that was the point of a more remote destination.
Over all, this cabin was perfect for a peaceful getaway. It’s definitely nothing fancy but it was clean. You have to have appreciation for little quirks here and there. It definitely has its own rustic charm.
It has a fully stocked kitchen - plates, bowls, glasses, silverware and miscellaneous kitchen gadgets you might need.
Bed was comfortable.
If you have kids, it has a cute little loft with 2 twin size beds.
One little downfall is that the shower head was super low. If you’re under 5’…it’s perfect; but otherwise a little awkward to try and position yourself to wash your hair.
One suggestion I might make to maintenance is

We enjoyed are stay. Accommodation comfortable. The house probably needs a good scrub inside drawers and cabinets. The fitted sheet fabric was pilled. Luckily I brought. My own sheets. The surfaces of the house were clean and the frig was spotless. Loved the view and would book again.

Obviously going into it I knew it would have a rustic feel because it is a cabin in the woods, but it was too rustic to where I didn’t feel comfortable putting my face on the pillows or laying on the couch. Some remodeling could be done for as much as your paying for the trip. I also knew there was as no internet on the trip. So we depended on the Tv, vhs, and dvd system that was there and it didn’t work. Not sure if it’s the cords. There were whole large spider webs behind both sides of the toilet where there are large spiders. Once again I know it’s a cabin, but I would tie it under cleanliness. The coffee maker also does not work as it stays as clear as tea when it’s done brewing. Won’t be picking that same location next time.

The beach here is heaven, and hanging out on the deck of this cabin was relaxing. There are a few things I think people should know about though. It's an old cabin and it smells like it. It's very musty and dusty, so if you have asthma and/or allergies you may be affected. Also while I was there the trees dropped big drops of sap on my car and windshield. It wasn't like the normal little tiny droplets, these were the size of dimes at least. This stuff isn't easy to remove. Also, there is a big black ant problem inside the cabin. Other than that it was very peaceful.

This charming little cabin has a lot of character and a phenomenal view. The vibe is perfect for disconnecting and reconnecting. The weather was cold and rainy when I, which didn't stop me from getting out and exploring the beach. So good. Thankfully, I picked up a bundle of wood and kindling for the woodstove. It kept the place warm and cozy in the evenings. Pro tip: If the forecast is calling for chilly temps, remember your slippers.

Pro: best ocean view. Private beach access.
Cons: smelly bathroom. Lots of ants. Upstairs carpet was not vacuumed and not cleaned and o big rat trap on the desk.

This place was what the doctor ordered. Charming quiet and has an amazing view right from the balcony of the Pacific Ocean. A lot of history, and it’s own private beach that the kids and dogs can run on with seeing another soul for hours. Only true criticism is the bathroom is pretty bad. Otherwise you WILL unwind here, trust me.

This wonderful cabin is a gem! Charming, warm and rustic. Updates are needed, but It’s comfortable and welcoming.
Beautiful beach view from living room and deck. Great path down to the amazing beach that you can walk for miles in solitude. Cabin is dog friendly which was a plus for us! We will definitely be back!

Our stay was great. If you expect a 5-star hotel, this cabin is not for you. Of course, the cabin is old (built in 1960), but to us this was an attractive feature, not disadvantage. It was built with love, and the booklet in it told about the reasons why it has not been renovated recently. We got everything we wanted and expected - beautiful location, sense of privacy (there are other houses nearby, but the cabin is completely screened from them by trees and shrubs), easy access to the beach. Inside, we enjoyed the fireplace, great for this season and weather.

This was our second stay at Rocks Cabin -- and we've already booked another one for next year. We had several wonderful trips to the beach, even though it was late October. And when you're on the beach, it's all yours because rarely do you see anyone else there. The cabin can be described as well-worn, but it is so comfortable and there are always the beautiful views and sounds of the ocean. This place is a treasure.

The rocks cabin is definitely a unique and special cabin experience on the Washington coast. The deck is great and there is a private trail down to a wonderful beach. With the older Cabin experience does come an older bathroom with a small drain that results in standing water while you’re taking a shower. There’s also just a general clammy feel to the cabin because it is dated and also just because you’re on the coast. As the other reviewer‘s have mentioned, The cabinets, sink, etc. In the kitchen are old as is the silverware, etc. Everything is clean although you can tell that dogs have been there. I think as long as you go in with the expectation that this is what it will be like and that the location makes it worth it Then you will be good! Do know that the rental company only provides one roll of toilet paper, one roll of paper towels and one or two garbage bags for your entire stay. That is for a family of four. It sounds like they do that just to get you started for your stay. Maybe I didn’t see that in the fine print but since the nearest grocery store in Ocean Shores is a bit of a drive I would make sure that you bring those supplies with you if you’re staying longer than a few days.

This roomy, charming cabin is tastefully furnished, well-provided and has beautiful exposed wood beam ceilings, wall paneling and new flooring. We thoroughly enjoyed the large deck and expansive indoor views of the mouth of the Copalis river and shoreline with great appreciation for the privacy of the natural surrounding. The woodstove is a treasure and kept us cozy when we needed it. There are many quirks and if you are looking for the ease of a shining modern unit, this is not the place for you. We loved it and already have plans to return next year!

Fantastic time to unplug and unwind. Great secluded access to the beach. The place is the perfect example of a pnw mountain cabin. Plenty of space for a family of four.

Nothing fancy but comfortable. Shower is very dark. 7 year old granddaughter liked playing in the loft but she didn’t sleep up there because she sleep walks. Rained hard all night, which was nice to listen to but made the trail to the beach not really useable because the mud was over my shoes but other beach access was not far away. Lacks cabinet space but it was built in the 60s so understandable.

Rocks Cabin is a hidden jewel at Copalis Beach. This cabin, built in the 60"s, has withstood the march of time with warmth and character. Its magnificent view, cozy living room with a wood stove, and beautiful deck made being inside almost as pleasant as walking on the crowd-free beach, with our two Labrador Retrievers. The days we spent here are truly an experience to be placed in our memory of special places visited

Absolutely loved this cabin and am so grateful to the family for sharing it.
Beach access was easy, but not for people who struggle with stairs. Kitchen was well-stocked with utensils and pans.
For those who felt it was too rustic, that's a matter of taste. Personally, I chose this cabin because it doesn't look like another tract home in the suburbs. This isn't the place to stay if that's what you want. But if you want a cabin with a timeless feel, surrounded by woods and a great view of the beach, this is the place.
I read that at some point the family plans to replace with a new build, which makes me very sad. I'll plan to come back until then, but a new, contemporary build will not have the magic of this cabin.
