Guest Reviews
- martyk195 (10/5): Loved the Under the Sea room! - This was our 2nd time visiting Moolack Shores Inn. We were in 10d this time. We really liked the "Under the Sea" theme. It was compact and cozy, perfect for my wife and I. The view out the north facing windows was indeed postcard picture perfect, as one can see in the pictures on the website. We had planned on a 2 night stay, but loved the room so much we extended our stay an additional day. It was good to see Peggy again. Highly recommended.
- tinyonthecoast (10/5): Cozy & Amazing View - Amazing staff, very cozy atmosphere. The room has amazing views. Went for my Birthday. I’m live down the highway in another town. I like to explore locally. It keeps small businesses going.
- mkflah2023 (10/5): Beachfront Beauty - The location was outstanding. The oceanfront views can’t be beat for the price of the room. The room was so cute and spacious! The fireplace was such a treat. Next time we stay, I’ll know to bring my tea bags so I can sip a lovely morning cup of tea out on the beachfront deck. Slice of heaven!
- P8360YRdeborahm (10/5): Amazing... - The most relaxing week I've spent in years. The room was comfortable and the kitchen was well stocked. All that was needed was food. And who could possibly argue with the view. OMG! Amazing. Best kept secret on the Oregon Coast. I will be returning.
- jennie870 (10/5): Moolack Shores Inn is something special! - This is the 3rd time coming to Moolack Shores and we always have the best time! We live the views and practically private beach. We do crafts and 2 of the rooms have large tables making it a perfect spot to watch the ocean and work on our crafts! Peggy and her son are absolutely the best! They are always so kind and take the time to make us feel special and at home!
- I7315ANlynne (10/5): Very comfortable stay - After a long drive in the wind and rain, we found our room cozy and comfortable. Loved having the electric fireplace , coffee maker, small fridge, dishes, wine glasses and a view of the crashing waves. It’s a bit rustic but would recommended it.
- 399melissat (10/5): Great value and excellent view - Great stay and comfy bed. Older but updated. Beautiful view. Friendly and easy check-in. Even had a one-burner and pot to heat up items. Will definitely stay here again.
- colleenv730 (10/5): Cozy Room - Our stay was nice and Peter was wonderful! Our room was cozy and clean. The bed was very comfortable. We loved the view and the electric fireplace.
- 75maryjaneh (10/5): Worth it!! - I love Moolack Shores Inn! I try to take myself at least once a year. Management is fantastic and the rooms are wonderful! Do yourself a favor and book a stay!
- georgejh2019 (10/5): Always a fine get away at Moolack Shores! - Always enjoy my stay at Moolack Shores. Great location, great rock formations. tide pools and birds on the beach and even beach combing for those sharp of eye! Peggy is aways fun to visit with in the office and the cleaning crew does a nice job. Well equipped kitchenette and plenty of supplies.
- YogiBearPaws (10/5): Nice and clean old style motel with killer views! - Great old-time place with oceanfront views, good beds, and quiet. Only a dozen or so rooms but clean and outstanding views! F you don’t want something fancy, and just want a quiet memorable stay this is the place.
- lakeshoo (8/5): Cute hotel - We had a delightful stay at Moolack Shores. It is a cute, updated hotel. It is steps from the ocean, and you can open up the windows to let the sounds of the ocean in. The ceilings are low, and there was an odd step-up in our room that wasn't well marked, so it took awhile to get used to it being there. There wasn't alot in the way of kitchen utensils, but enough to get by. It was quiet and clean and good value.
- M6138NPsusanj (10/5): Warm, clean and cozy - Warm, clean and cozy environment. Peggy is super nice and makes you feel welcome. I will definitely be returning and have already recommended this place to friends and family.
- M1807CUmaryf (10/5): Felt like home - Peggy is a very sweet person. I felt like family and enjoyed our stay! Next time I will request a room facing the ocean. The views are amazing.
- Getaway40281151497 (10/5): Great ocean views, right on the beach. - Loved our charming room right on the beach. Sweeping views of the ocean from our bed, sound of the waves lulled us to sleep at night. Peggy, our host, couldn't have been more friendly and helpful. Highly recommended.
- J9010TXelliel (10/5): Hidden Gem - Wow, what a lovely experience. Bed was extremely comfortable, amazing view, and incredible amenities. I've been staying in different places on the Oregon Coast my whole life, and this place is truly a hidden gem. The rooms are literally right on the beach, just a stair walk down and your feet are in the sand. Had some very memorable moments here. Highly recommend the Lighthouse room, and we'll be back for the Whale Room!
- Fundognw (8/5): Pleasant stay on the coast away from the bustle of town; dated but comfy - The location far enough from town to have a lovely view of the ocean, but close enough to go into town for a meal. The facilities are basic and a bit dated, but quite comfy. Staff is friendly and helpful but reception is not manned after 5:00 pm so if you arrive later you'll find your key in the door.
- Z1436SPoscard (4/5): overpriced for what we actually got. - For what we actually got, the price and the extra costs for pet was too expensive. Would not stay there again. Better options up and down the coast.
- 252dar (10/5): little piece of heaven near Newport, Oregon - Phenomenal, right on the beach, with a lighthouse views and easy beach access for us being a retired couple. Comfortable unit a king bed with separate living room and kitchen. Our unit was dated in comparison to the other more modern units. It accommodated us just fine, all because of the location and proximity to the beach. Gorgeous sunsets right out the patio door on our porch. We cooked crab one evening and breakfast at the unit a couple times during our stay. Loved, loved staying here. Pet friendly was disappointed to learn upon our arrival that we would be charged 125.00 cash for our small dog to stay for 5 nights. Nothing was mentioned about pet fees prior. Make a set fee, high for a pet staying multiple nights.
- Destination594957 (4/5): Not a good value. - Not what I expected for 300.00$ per night. The room was not as clean or maintained to four star quality. The toilet did not flush properly. After going down over forty stairs my wife was unable to get on to the beach. The refrigerator was a counter top model mounted under the cabinet counter top, had to get down on knees to use.
- Meander45182112136 (10/5): Quick getaway - We stayed for two nights and loved it, so we returned for an additional two nights the next week! The rooms are nicely furnished and very clean and the balconies have amazing views. Beach access is easy, just a few steps. We brought our dog and she was very welcome as well. Peggy is a wonderful manager and we can’t wait to go back
- terryhI3263VL (10/5): Nice getaway for privacy - Clean rooms, all with view of the ocean. Dog friendly, nearly private beach however stairs are not for the out of shape. Beach is not wheelchair accessible.
- Nick (10/5): - Great
- Angela (10/5): - Love the private beauty One of the best on the oregon coast
- Ron (6/5): - the people next door smoked and had a dog that barked off and on.
- Vallori (10/5): - This is a hidden gem on the coast. If you like waking to the sound a waves on the sand and walking on a semi private the beach then this is a must stay. The beach is just down the steps from your room basically. Yes the property is older, but the staff keeps the rooms clean and updated and honestly the real beauty is the ocean. We were not in the very cute themed rooms much since the ocean, hikes, and whales called to our adventure. We extended our stay because it was so nice. We had the safari room then the whale room. Both had their own charms, but we loved the whole ocean view the best. It's a short 5 min drive to Newport for food, shopping, tourist stuff or 10 min to Depot Bay for tourist stuff and whale watching. The staff was wonderful and so nice.
- zimmerf2022 (8/5): Nice and relaxing - Room was cute. The view was amazing, the beach wasn’t busy. Noise level was a minimum which was very nice. We Had a good relaxing stay. Bed wasn’t the most comfortable , needed some up dated paint and kinda musty but nothing some cleaning wipes and a couple candles didn’t solve, other than that the stay was rather enjoyable .
- Tamara (8/5): Wide open view - Awesome location, beautiful view with deck to enjoy the front row at the beach. Need to update the shower. Great for our springdoodle day trip to the beach. Had a cleaning station to rinse all the sand.
- Debra (8/5): - The room was clean but a bit smaller then i expected from pictures online. The staff was great. The beach was close but you had a very long step stairway to go down to get there. The bottom of the steps was a long drop. It was a nice quiet hotel and worth the cost.
- hkbinsf (6/5): Need some renovations - I got the Camelot theme room. The decorations, King sized bed, and with a balcony facing the ocean are nice. However, the bathroom is a turning point. It is so small and dated. There is no room for putting up my toiletries. The shower stall is so small and old and the shower faucet is so cheaply made that I was afraid it would be broken easily. With the expensive room price, I could have gotten a much better place.
- Chariti (10/5): - stay was good
- Tanna (8/5): - Was a super cute place to stay, very friendly staff, room was clean and nice. Only issue is parking, not meant for full size pickups.
- Jean Ann (10/5): - Right on the beach. Awesome! Ocean view from our room. Wonderful staff! Relaxing and peaceful stay.
- jenniferrW8775ZE (10/5): Unbeatable Views!! - YOU CANNOT BEAT THIS LOCATION!!! We loved our stay at Moolack Shores! The view and ease of accessing the beach was fantastic. We will definitely stay here again when we travel to the PNW!
- Jamie (10/5): - This is our 3rd year coming here. We love the beautiful ocean view from our room , each room is uniqueand easy private access. Peggy is a wonderful host and welcoming.
- P4783RBstacyh (10/5): Lovely stay! - Unassuming from the outside, and incredibly charming on the inside! I loved my stay in the Under the Sea room - fantastic view to the north. And the stairs to the beach were great - there was no one else there. This was a great place to relax and unwind. Peggy was a lovely host.
- Erika (10/5): - We could walk right out to the beach and our room had a great view of the ocean. The staff were very friendly and accommodating!
- teena (8/5): - Great oceanfront location!
- lesliu (10/5): A Perfect Getaway for Couples or Singles - We loved our stay in the Hawaii Room of Moolack Shores Inn. The room was very comfy and cozy, and the views were breathtaking. We especially appreciated the provision of K-cups for the coffee maker and the warm welcome of our host, Peggy. We also appreciated the access to the long stretch of beach with very few people. The location is more centrally located for visiting beaches and towns north (e.g., Depot Bay) and south (into Newport city center/bayfront) along the coast. The is a cute electric fireplace in the room that is not operational. This was not an issue for us, but if you are counting on using it for a little additional warmth and atmosphere, just be aware.
- scott (4/5): - Expensive partial view.
- 440leilao (10/5): Charming and quaint - The whaler room! So cool! Rustic and homely, and full of whale decor, adding to the whimsy of a stay at the coast. Big comfy recliners! The room doesn’t state it has an ocean view, and it doesn’t have a direct ocean view but there’s a stunning view of the north coast. And not a partial view either. A beautiful view! And the bed was one of the most comfortable I’ve ever slept in during any stay on the coast.
- Anna (10/5): - Easy access to the beach. Nice balconies.
- alisa (10/5): - Beach access
- Maria (10/5): - Peggy was really friendly! The room smell and was super clean! The view perfect! The only down side the stove top didn’t quite heat up enough but other than that it was amazing! Will definitely book with them again!
- Gretchen (6/5): - .
- S2207CQmaryc (10/5): Great balcony overlooking the ocean. - The bed was comfy and the room was decorated in a fun way. The balcony overlooked the ocean and made this a beautiful stay.
- Sunshine46471977244 (10/5): Amazing Oregon coast stay - Loved the place. It's a nice little place right on the beach. Great view of the beach from the room and easy access of the beach with stairs as well. This is a pet friendly place and our dog had a really good time. The host Peggy was really amazing. We stayed there in the 4th of July weekend and were treated with a great cookout! She also helped with some needs of our dog and made sure we had everything we need. We would love to go back!
- Departure02594053768 (10/5): Very relaxing... - Great place to getaway ! Each room has a different decor. Nice ! We had the Whalers room. Super comfortable, could have stayed for a month !! Plates, silverware, etc. for dining in your getaway ! (Safeway only 8 minutes away). Being a super cozy inn, you can hear some voices through the wall (only daytime) and if your neighbors have a fur baby you will hear some. So adorable and relaxing, no big thing. The Moolack Shores Inn is the perfect place to get out of the rat race and take a walk on the beach !! Thanks Peggy !! Next time we shall try room 10A !! Aloha and Mahalo for a beautiful stay !
- 558pamw (10/5): Oregon Coast Road Trip - We absolutely loved staying here! And hope to return again. Great location, with anything you need a few minute drive away, but rooms are well stocked with essentials. Perfect location for traveling north or south. Peggy the host is the sweetest and kindest person. This truly a very charming little beach oasis.
- cynthiacZ4570GI (4/5): In a word shabby - While the staff of one we met was quite nice, it doesn't make up for the fact the building, situation, room location and stairs to the beach are not.any windows so not open, a very poor job of renovation, misty smells, constant traffic noise and just generally not what is shown in the photos all made for a place we decided to take the $250 dollar loss. Just don't do it unless you are not expecting much
- Jeffrey (8/5): - Location is everything. Could be a little cleaner. Somewhat dated but overall worth staying because of location. Staff friendly and easy parking.
- Jose (10/5): - Such a cute property. Great views! Comfy bed!
- Rhonda (10/5): - Great view, nicely decorated, very comfortable bed!
- Kathy (10/5): Charming room with a view - Charming room with an amazing view of the beach and sunsets. Great decor. Owner and her son were extremely helpful and friendly.
- sadieng (6/5): Good and bad experience - Moolack Shores Inn is a favorite of ours. Our room was decorated nicely, kichen well equipped and the view from the balcony is hard to beat. We stayed two nights. We did NOT expect a 10am checkout time (summer hours, apparently,) which caused chaos in packing up. At our next stop, after searching the car and luggage, I realized I forgot my sneakers. I called Moolack and spoke to Peter. I said I thought I left my shoes in Room 6. He responded “you mean your Sperrys?” I said yes, and said we will pick them up on the way back up the coast in a few days. Fast forward to 3 days later, I showed up and was told by Peter that the maid had thrown out my shoes, and I was welcome to dig through the dumpster. The woman manager claimed to know nothing about it. I’m sorry this review is so long, but I was furious, and this needs to be shared. No apologies or offer to discount our stay. Moolack is beautiful but management needs improvement.
- Lisa (10/5): - Steps to the beach, clean and cozy!
- Judith (10/5): - Location is fantastic and the views outstanding!
- Sarah (10/5): - This hidden gem was amazing. If we pass by this way again we will definitely try to stay here again! I was looking for a room with a nice ocean view since this was kind of a once-in-a-lifetime trip. I came across this and said "why not?" Best decision I could have made. When you pull up in the parking lot, it doesn't seem that impressive. When we went into the room, that's where the establishment shines. The room was cozy and comfortable. It had everything you could possibly think of on hand. The view was so breathtaking. It was a bit chilly outside when we arrived, but that didn’t stop us from sitting out on the porch and watching the waves and the sunset. We just had the temp set indoors so we were nice and warm once we came in. It was an easy drive to find food. It was a great location to explore more of the Coast. I just wish we had more time to spend here because there was so much to see and do. The room itself was quiet. We didn’t hear much noise from neighbors and the place seemed full. We were very sad to leave. We had a really nice chat with the proprietor when we were checking out. It's nice to feel like you spent your money wisely and staying here accomplished that for sure. My only complaint was the fact that sand follows you everywhere after you've been walking in it. I think we're still finding it and we've been home for over a month! It was easy access to the beach, so the sand is entirely on us... In short, great place to stay. No regrets!
- J Richard (10/5): - Fantastic view of the ocean. Charming and comfortable room. Very clean. Quiet at night- only sounds of the surf. Staff super- friendly.
- TWinn05 (10/5): Amazing views with beach access - We booked this as a last minute getaway, and loved our stay in the Whaler Room. The views are incredible, it was so relaxing to sit in the recliners and watch the waves. The room is cozy and well-appointed with a dorm fridge, Keurig, hot plate and dishes to prepare simple meals (although we kept it low key with a cheese plate and wine for dinner). This is a great location with direct access to Moolack Beach and proximity to Yaquina Head and Newport. Can’t wait to come back!
- Michelle (10/5): - We loved everything about this place. Check in was easy, staff was great, location was fantastic, and the property was ADORABLE AND COMFY. Just what I needed to a quick getaway.
- valeriepT7508MX (10/5): An amazing place to stay right on the beach - We had a wonderful stay at Moolack Shores Inn! We stayed in the Western Room, which was incredibly cozy yet spacious with tall ceilings. The room had a full-sized kitchen with a stove and fridge, as well as all of the implements needed for cooking. The room was clean and the bathroom was fully stocked with all of the essentials. The best thing about Moolack Shores Inn, apart from the fun rooms, is the location; you are literally right above the beach! Our room had a direct view of the ocean from our balcony so we could watch the sunset every night. There is direct beach access from the inn via a stairway. We had a great view of the lighthouse as well, and the beach felt very private! There is no lighting at the beach, so bring a flashlight if you wanted to go down there at night. Finally, we were very grateful for our interactions with Peggy, the owner. She reached out to me before our visit to see if we had any questions and was communicative throughout our stay. This was a big difference from staying at any big chain hotels! I really did not know what to expect in staying in a local place like this as I have only ever stayed in big chain hotels, but we were blown away by how lovely this place was and will definitely be returning to check out the other rooms!
- jetbuny1 (10/5): Loved staying here - we visited Newport for our 40th wedding anniversary. Moolack Shores was a great choice. It was a straight forward drive to the aquarium which is what we wanted to see. Lots of restaurant choices nearby. Parking was ample, but as someone who is starting to deal with problems with uneven terrain it was difficult to have to park on the upper part of the lot. we would gladly stay here again.
- Christine (10/5): - Beautiful views
- Robert (10/5): - I delightfully decorated cottage. Well appointed in a beautiful setting. Didn't want to check out.
- Amanda (8/5): - Super nice. Close to the beach. Pet friendly but the pet fee was expensive. $75!? Rooms were comfy.
- Michelle (10/5): - Fun place to stay. Great view and service!
- Sarah (10/5): - This property is quaint,private,not a lot rooms,quiet,the view off the patio's are incredible.peggy at the front desk is sooo friendly. She's the best!!!
- Karinda (10/5): - Incredibly great value on the oceans' edge, near Newport and Nye Beach. Great outdoor area with fire pit and bbq. Private steps to a beautiful beach with very few people. Quiet. Well appointed, comfy bed, great wifi and tv options. Super clean and quiet. Great views. Lovely caretakers. Best deal to stay at the coast!
- Anne (8/5): Beautiful less populated beach - This seems to be the last hotel/motel on the north end of Newport, where the space between Hwy 101 and the beach narrows. Moolack Shores Inn rests on a low cliff, with stairs direct to Moolack Beach. The beach is unique from others around it, with a fascinating variety of rocky formations and tide pools, and few people. These features, and views from rooms at the inn are the big wins. Couple of things to note: The gaslit modern fire pit shown online is really just a pit for a wood fire - just fine but you must supply wood so pick it up on your way. Also, if you’re bringing a dog, ask for the paperwork up front. Overall, the inn is quirky in a mostly fun way, and quite comfortable. Beach is pure magic.
- JeyelA (10/5): BEST INN ON OREGON COAST - I highly recommend this place! I absolutely adore the area, and Peggy is incredibly accommodating. Her hospitality made my stay even more enjoyable. The surroundings are charming and inviting, making it a perfect getaway. Whether you're looking to relax or explore, this location offers a wonderful experience. Peggy goes above and beyond to ensure that guests feel welcome and comfortable, which truly enhances the overall experience. I appreciated her attention to detail and willingness to assist with any needs I had during my visit. The atmosphere is warm and friendly, making it easy to feel at home. I can't wait to return and enjoy everything this area has to offer once again. From the beautiful scenery to the delightful accommodations, it's a place that leaves a lasting impression. If you're considering a trip, I wholeheartedly encourage you to choose this spot. You won't be disappointed! Overall, my experience was fantastic, and I look forward to making more memories here in the future. Thank you, Peggy, for your exceptional hospitality!
- lisasC3926FV (10/5): Romantic Coastal Getaway - We stayed in the lighthouse suite and absolutely loved it. Views of the ocean and lighthouse right from the window. Very clean and the kitchen had all the amenities needed. You can see other guests heading out to the beach stairs through the living room window but that wasn't a problem for us. Overall it's a peaceful, quiet place. The window is tinted for privacy. I would definitely stay here again. Great value for the area.
- Tisha (8/5): - When we arrived our key was not in the door and it was locked. Per instructions I called Peggy. She came right over and found someone went into our room. She offered the room next door but me knees are bad and the shower was cumbersome. She gave us an upgrade to full ocean view and I've never been happier with a mix up. The sunset was right in front of us on our deck! Great place to stay.
- MARTHAVDM (10/5): LOVED IT ALL - COMFY BED. SUPRIZE KITCHEN SUPPLIES WE WERE SO GLAD FOR. INCREDIBLE VIEWS. TURNED THE BIG CHAIR AROUND AND LOOKED OUT ENDLESSLY. MANY DAYS WE HAD THE MOST BEAUTIFUL BEACH ALL TO OURSELVES. THIS PLACE STOLE OUR HEARTS. GREAT PRICE. FRIENDLY MANAGER.
- 904mikkir (10/5): Great stay!!! Highly recommend. - This was the cutest little hotel. The amenities in the room were so well thought out and the bed was very comfortable. There was a huge fluffy blanket on the bed that was amazing!! The best part was the ocean view and proximity to the water. I wish I had been able to spend several nights there. I will be back.
- Adrienne (10/5): - Lovely setting along the Oregon coast. Access to the beach, incredible sunsets….and very low key.
- Verified traveler (2/5): Awful, don’t recommend pics are misleading - Was awful management was very rude and super intrusive. Left within ten min. Room was infested with mold. Sheets were urine stained and had bodily fluids all over them. The light switches and handles and floor boards were covered in dirt and grime. They wouldn’t refund my money. Blamed me for this somehow though I was not at the hotel for more then ten min. I broke out in hives and the manager claimed my child was being so loud we apparently had complaints. My child was outside by the car away from the building. Everyone around our room was very kind and their children smiled and said hello, nobody was unkind aside from the manager.
- Brad (10/5): On the ocean - Wonderful ocean views and sounds of waves. Cozy themed rooms. A welcome departure from large chain hotels
- melanierO6054PI (10/5): Wish I had booked a longer stay - I was overjoyed with the views from our bed and couldn't stop staring at the Ocean!! Our room was so cozy. The fire place was an extra touch and knocked the chill off our room in minutes! We loved every minute of our stay here and wish I had booked 2 or 3 nights instead of just 1 !! Just what i wanted in a Coastal Getaway.
- Kim (8/5): - This was a great place right in the ocean. Friendly staff with easy check in and out. The room was a bit outdated and worn but very clean and comfortable. The only issue we had was that WiFi never worked. All in all it was a good stay and I would recommend.
- CHRISTINE (6/5): - This hotel has great location. But the staff at the hotel are hard to contact for any issues. I had issues with the electricity going off completely & I could not find the staff to help me. After asking a nice couple in the room to help me, the staff finally came to solve the issue. After that I thought I would watch TV but the TV would not work. They have a lot of cheap stuff filling up the room but they need to focus on the main issues with facilities working in the room for the guest.
- Lieziel (10/5): - Superb stay and Peggy is very friendly.
- Stacey (10/5): - The unit was newly remodeled and the ocean view was great.
- Deann (10/5): - View
- onmyadventure (10/5): Wonderful and Unique Property - Absolutely stunning views from room 10A. The room was comfortable and clean. We loved the themed rooms and the extra touches like extra coffee and the electric fireplace. Moolack Shores Inn is an extraordinarily unique property. While older, it is well maintained. Peg was extremely helpful and went out of her way to make sure we had a wonderful time.
- Joan (10/5): Great value and quick beach access. - Very quirky property, but the location can't be beat for the price. It was a quick walk down the property stairs (~50) to get onto the beach where we could wander for hours during the super low tide. Exceptionally clean. Nice to have a kitchen. Bed was comfy but noisy (very thick tarp like mattress cover). Electric fireplace seemed like a nice touch but didn't work after about 60 seconds, despite numerous resets. All in all would stay again purely for the beach access.
- 177inaram (10/5): Amazing view w/amazing room - Full kitchen was great! Loved the view. Staff were inviting and warm. Great place to stay! I wish they had capacity to host 5 people. It'd be a great space to bring the whole family, particularly the hunting lodge which has a full kitchen. Direct access to the beach!
- Tausha (10/5): - Beach access. View amazing with private Balcony. Accommodations clean. Provided with binoculars to view ocean.
- alech278 (10/5): A wonderful place to stay - This is a delightful small hotel on the Oregon Coast. My room had a nautical theme, complete with portholes in the wall. Everything was perfect in the room. The view was beautiful with waves outside the windows. It was very quiet and safe. Highly recommended
- Kay (10/5): - We were only here one night but it was an oasis from driving the PCH. We needed a quiet place with a comfortable bed and a great view. Hope to come back when we can stay longer.
- Alec (10/5): - We stayed overnight on a trip down Oregon Coast. The place is isolated and quiet. It is in a beautiful setting with views overlooking the ocean. The place has a nautical theme with porthole windows. There is easy access to the beach. I wanted to stay longer but we were on a schedule. Highly recommend the hotel
- Nathan (10/5): - We loved our little getaway at Moolack. Beautiful view of the ocean from the balcony and cute little room with armor decoration. I believe the room was called the Camelot room. Very cozy and quiet and away from the cities but close enough to get to them. It’s right off of 101 between Depoe bay and Newport. The hotel has its own private access to the beach. We plan on returning in the future. Highly recommend!
- Kirstin (10/5): Simply the Best - Sooo beautiful! Easy beach access. Cute, clean, spacious room! Great views and so conveniently located for more exploring! Peggy is awesome! She truly cares about your experience at Moolack Shores!
- 808farrahr (8/5): Amazing view and beach, not so great bed. - Moolack beach is beautiful! We had an amazing view from our room that included the Yaquina Head lighthouse. The room it's self was nice with a great kitchen. However, the mattress was very hard and uncomfortable. The sheets, blankets and towels were all low quality and took away from the overall experience.
- Judy (10/5): - Loved the ocean view, ease of getting to the beach, and the room amenities. Table and chairs were nice so we could play cards and have our coffee with a view.
- 101computerstv (10/5): A great place for a quiet enjoyment of the Oregon Coast - Came for 2 nights for our 52nd anniversary, the room was quite pleasant and very clean with a fantastic view of the ocean! The kitchenette had plenty of coffee and it was easy to prepare our own meals. Good wireless connection, also Roku TV and a small fireplace. It was really a nice getaway. I really enjoyed visiting with the manager who made us feel like we were family. Highway access is difficult, but it was a good experience overall, we would come back to stay whenever we are looking for a quiet stay without the traffic some of the big Motels have. I would describe this property as a cross between a comfortable motel and a quiet private B&B . It is an older property with clean remodel.The price was comparable to some nearby properties.Beautiful View and soothing sound of the ocean easy to fall asleep to.
- maristela (10/5): - Well cared property and wonderful staff.
- Shea (10/5): - We booked this last minute. It was down the road from where I live, but I had guests. The views are incredible. The room, included a living room area, small dining table, and a small refrigerator, and microwave. It was an adorable, kitschy, beach getaway. The staff was super helpful, and it was overall all a great experience for an amazing price.
- defibman (10/5): This place is a must stay! - We got a room with a full view of the ocean and loved it! The decor was wonderful and they even provided a log for a fire. It was perfect because it rained one day and after a walk in the rain and listening to the crashing waves we sat and enjoyed a nice warm fire. We did not want to leave. Peggy was a great host and everything was near perfect.
- melissasE5675EG (10/5): I could sit in that room forever - Lovely little place with a view to die for. The front desk was very kind and helpful too after I made a mistake in my booking. We stayed in the Whaler room, it was delightful. Thank you very very much. We look forward to returning again someday soon.
