Beachfront holiday rentals in Rocky Mountains

This was our second trip to The Rocky Whale in the last six months. We love it here. For us, the location is incredible. We spend as much time on the beach possible and being able to cross the street to the dune path and be at the ocean in less than 5 minutes is incredible. Low-tide tide pools? Check. Entire groups of seals? Check. Eagles? Check. Milky Way on a clear night? Also check! We are grateful for the ability to bring our dogs and the big open space downstairs to be able to house their crates. The bed/bath/kitchen has always been clean and comfortable and when the storms come through being able to hang out in the big living space upstairs and keep ourselves entertained (tv… storm… games.. etc) has come in handy. The kitchen is well appointed. We eat in when we stay here and there is nothing we haven’t been able to handle (sometimes a little improvisation is needed!) We were never able to find the tv remote on our second trip… but there is an app for that.

such a cute little spot RIGHT next to beach access! easy to find and exactly as it looked in the photos. the huge TV in the bedroom was awesome for some Mario Kart races :)

Our family stayed for two nights and had a blast watching movies, playing games and walking on the beach. House has a beautiful view of the bay and the bridge. Beds were comfortable and the kitchen was well stocked.

We enjoy staying here. The view is beautiful, the place is comfortable, and the hosts are friendly and communicative. This is our favorite place to stay, when we can.

My wife and I came down from Washington to relax. Been really busy at work so we were looking forward to getting away. What a fantastic place. We have a mini Australian Shepherd. Totally enjoyed ourselves. I was relaxing upstairs looking out the window at the ocean, about 2 hours later I woke up. It was truly incredible to be that relaxed. Nobody was on the beach so I was able to let my dog run for a bit. Great places to grab some food close by. They had an excellent smoke house right down the street with great stuff if you like smoked meats and fish. A bakery that made me gain 5 lbs too. We will be back. Thank you.

Carol was an amazing host, very responsive and offered early check-in! The home was super comfy and housed our 8 woman book club well. Really loved the quiet, the hot tub, and the short walk onto the beach. Would definitely stay again!!

A nice little get away as a family to enjoy the things we love - beach, water, and nature! Kirsten’s place offered all three and more! Cozy, comfortable, and clean! Enjoy every minute we were there!

Walking in was like stepping back in time. The house is adorable, loved the history and feel. Location was beautiful and the weather was perfect.

The stay was wonderful and super cozy. The couch was so comfortable and made socializing feel more like home. I’d stay there again. 😊

So glad we found this air bnb instead of renting an actual room through the hotel. Definitely will rent this room again.

We had a wonderful short getaway at Sue’s place! The condo is just steps from the beach, pool, and jacuzzi. Falling asleep to the sound of the waves was relaxing, and the ocean breeze was very refreshing. It was exactly what we needed to reset and recharge. Everything was just as described, and we would stay here again! Thank you, Sue!

We loved staying at Shelli’s home in Monterey Dunes Colony. Every room was set up nicely and clean, and you could tell Shelli has put a lot of care into the home. There were 7 of us and each family member enjoyed their stay. We love staying at Monterey Dunes Colony because the location can’t be beat. Every home has their quirks but honestly we didn’t find any at Shelli’s. It was comfortable to hang out and enjoy the beach and scenery, and close enough to outdoor activities and the aquarium. The living room is set up comfortably for a big group, while offering privacy too. It was a restful and rejuvenating getaway! We plan to book again.

Great stay for a low-key gathering of friends which included a few young children. Spacious common area was great for everyone to be able to hangout together. Kitchen was well-equipped; we cooked a few meals. The neighborhood is peaceful and beautiful. Responsive and friendly host. Flexible checkout. Would stay again!

Lovely well kept home right next to the ocean! Enjoy lovely ocean views and the sound of the waves. Only minor complaint is the walk to the beach was a bit longer than expected since some paths were closed when we were there. Overall we had a lovely relaxing stay!

We loved our stay here! It was perfect for a relaxing family weekend. Location is just unbeatable and the personal touches on the home made it feel so cozy . We loved playing some of the many games provided and found the beds and linens to be so comfortable and cozy! They also provide plenty of all the needed things from dish supplies to extra toilet paper and fresh towels and blankets, and even some fire wood! Would definitely stay here again!

We enjoyed a one night stay at the house to celebrate a milestone birthday at the coast. The house was lovely and well appointed, the directions were clear and friendly, and the location was amazing. After playing on the beach, we relaxed with wine on the balcony grilling dinner and watching the sun set over the water. The stay was the perfect balance of luxury celebration and low key cozy for us.

I stayed at Raymond’s place for a week with my husband and father in law, and it was spacious enough for the three of us. We had a great time and his house is charming with a wonderful deck and incredible views of the ocean. We walked along the beach trail into town several times. The Sunshine Coast is such a great area and we greatly enjoyed daily walks in forests and beaches and spend time visiting the local cideries and breweries. I echo some other reviews that some of the kitchen utensils could be replaced. But we did manage to cook some lovely dinners, making use of some great local seafood and used the bbq a couple of times. We would happily stay here again in the future.

Loved staying here with my family. House was SO clean. Would definitely come back. Great amount of space enjoyed seeing the water all day. Even had a highchair for my little one!

We had an absolutely amazing stay at Anchor Down Inn. The home exceeded expectations, such beautiful views and a comfy, clean and spacious home. The balloons, cake, and flowers for a birthday were such a thoughtful and sweet gesture. We were greeted with a friendly note, wine, and snacks. The hot tub was wonderful and the surprise visit of Seals our first morning was incredible. Rachel was very responsive and helpful if I had any questions, and even let us check in early the day of our arrival. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a private getaway. We will definitely be back!

Stayed at this house with a few friends for the weekend and had such a lovely time. Serene views of the passage from a heated deck and hot tub, and spacious living quarters for everyone to have separate sleeping quarters.

We liked the condo and location very much. Very peaceful, quiet and private, the unit is well maintained, and everything we used worked. Kitchen was great, we used it for breakfast everyday. Hardly anyone walking the beach during our stay, and it was relaxing watching the tide come in and out, with the lights from Canada at the distance. A place to stay if you're after a quiet, relaxing vacation. The restaurant at the nearby resort is a very short walk away, and pretty good even with the short menu, as their main kitchen is closed for renovation.

Great location near Jedediah Smith and Prairie Creek State Parks. Amazing ocean views. Fit our family's needs.

Great place to stay! Private & peaceful. Great for a getaway weekend. Response times were very fast and helpful. Would 10/10 rebook with DJ & Karen!

Another incredible stay! You can't beat the location, with near instantaneous access to the beach. The house is cozy and comforting, providing all of the amenities from morning coffee before a beautiful beach walk to family dinner with the sunset over the ocean as the backdrop. This year we were fortunate to be able to vacation with our adult child and their partner and the guest house made for an excellent experience. While the main house had plenty of space for everyone to relax and socialize, it was nice to have separate spaces to wind down in. We definitely enjoyed this second stay as much as, if not more than, our first stay. We hope to be able to enjoy the Loft of Riley again in the future.
