I love this house! "Rustic charm" is a great description. Fantastic views, fantastic location right on the sand. Plenty of room for the 6 of us. Well stocked with everything we needed. Clean and feels like a home away from home. I hope we'll be back next year!
Fantastic location. The house was wonderful for a large group. My family are great eaters and had large pots and kitchen items stocked and didn’t need to bring anything. It was a memorable weekend. Would love to make this an annual gathering Mack even provided a sunny weekend in March!
Location is absolutely perfect to watch the sun set over the water or literally step out onto the sand. Kids loved to run around on the beach. Town is only a block away. Home was clean and simple, no-frills but everything we needed for a super comfortable stay. Home is more spacious than in photos. Kinda wish the furniture on the enclosed porch was a bit more comfortable but couches in adjoining living room were very cozy. We all loved it, ages 5 to 75! Obviously a very cherished home! We would love to come back for another stay in the future.
Property is a bit worn,as many people have written,but as they have also written, it’s a wonderful place to stay. Fantastic location, well maintained, and an incredible view (ocean is literally a couple hundred feet away from the house at high tide). A perfect place for a large family gathering or ?. Highly recommend it!
This rustic property sits in a truly dreamy location that overlooks Haystack rock and Cannon Beach. The property had more than enough space and amenities to accommodate our group of 6 adults and an 1.5 year old. Like a lot of properties on the Oregon coast, it is on the older side - but everything functioned well and the decor is charming. Would definitely stay again!
We had such a great time at this beach house! The home was clean, comfortable, and had everything we needed. The location was perfect, and we loved how spacious and welcoming it felt. The host was also responsive and helpful throughout our stay. Highly recommend - would stay here again!
The best location you could ask for to be on the beach! You step out back and your feet are in the sand. Perfect walking location to places to eat and downtown Cannon beach. Will return
We spent a few nights and had a truly remarkable time! Our extended family all enjoyed the proximity to the beach and haystack rock. The home's location is perfect, walkable to town, very walkable to convenience store (2 minute walk) and literally ON THE BEACH with the best view of Haystack! We made truly exceptional memories here thank you so much!
Facility is a little tired, but very comfortable. Location hard to beat. Beach access, view - excellent!, Varied separate rooms worked perfectly for our large family
We had a fantastic time in this house with friends. We loved the proximity to the beach and the town. The endless walks on the beach and warming up by the fireplace were our favorite things this trip!
Beautiful Romantic stay. House is more likely booked by families , but we wanted to have direct beach access and views. Enjoyed the fireplace and easy walk to town.

Why they chose this property
Our family purchased this wonderful 1940's ocean front home from the original owner in the late 1960's and has now been passed down to the second generation. We purchased it because of of the spectacular location, the incredible views, the generous space needed for a large family, and the unique charm of the house. It is truly a real "Beach House" and not a "poseur" like many of the homes that are now built in Cannon Beach. It will soon be passed down to the the third generation and we hope that it will continue to remain in our family for many years to come.
What makes this property unique
Ocean front, walking distance to all of the Restaurants, Pubs, and shops in Cannon Beach, and close to some of the best surf spots in the world
