It takes only 3 words to describe this beautiful home- HEAVEN ON EARTH!! Absolute amazing and stunning views and beautiful accommodations. Jim was a fantastic host! 5th time coming to the Oregon coast and the Cove Cottage far surpasses and other VRBO listings by a mile! Definitely will be back and will let family and friends know how special this place truly was for my family!

Absolutely perfect place for a family vacation to the coast. It was the cleanest vacation rental I’ve ever stayed at. We were truly right on the beach and it felt so private, but it was super convenient to Cannon Beach and Manzanita. The hosts pretty much thought of everything in terms of what we would need — tons of board games, a toy chest for kids (my 5yo was DELIGHTED) as well as beach chairs and towels. Kitchen as well stocked with supplies too. We will absolutely be back next year.

Truly the Oregon Coast

My mom, my aunt and myself stayed at this location to celebrate my mom’s 70th birthday. It was tucked away between Hwy 101and the ocean. Small and quaint, with an amazing view of the ocean, both indoors and outside on the deck. There was plenty of room for the three of us. Perfect for a group like ours or a small family. The outdoor space is superb. We watched the tides come in and go out. One night we had an amazing sunset. Indoors, two of the rooms are connected, which we didn’t mind, but is worth noting. The kitchen is small but that eliminates too many cooks in the kitchen. Overall we would definitely stay here again. The host was responsive when needed—although we didn’t have any reason to reach out except to announce arrival and departure. Great location, highly recommend.

Absolutely beautiful

Beautiful location! The house was very clean and stocked with everything you could need. Jim responded extremely quickly when answering questions. The beach was great and very secluded. The drive through the trees to get to the property was breathtaking. Restaurants and shopping in Cannon Beach is only about a 10 minute drive away. We travel a lot and this was probably the most beautiful place we’ve ever stayed. We hope to come back again!

This property and its location are phenomenal. The views are hard to depict via words. We often felt like we were the only ones on the beach. Family friendly house, check-in instructions were detailed and spot on, making the stay seamless. Thank you Cove Beach, we are already dreaming of coming back.

Arch Cape escape

We had an amazing time on this vacation. The house was well stocked. It was nice having the games and puzzles available. We enjoyed a lot of time outside taking walks along the beach, fishing and just sitting outside enjoying the beautiful view and listening to the ocean. Would definitely recommend!!

Absolute paradise!

What a wonderful way to spend our 25th anniversary. The pictures really don’t capture the beauty and magic of this property. My husband said he wished he had recording me walking in when I saw our view. Spectacular! Practically a private beach, prime location, words just don’t do it justice!

NW Getaway

5-day stay at Arch Cape. Visit was in early May and the weather was rainy and cool most days but absolutely beautiful just the same. House overlooks the beach with beach access along a very short trail. Floor to ceiling windows provide a wonderful view. Easy drive access to Seaside, Cannon Beach, and Manzanita. A pair of Bald Eagles paid us a visit on two occasions. Will stay here again.

Oceanside Dream

There's not many listings I've stayed in that far exceeded what they posted, but this property nailed it. The view was beyond anything you could describe, the house was immaculate and very well maintained, everything you'd ever need for an extended stay is provided in the house. 50/10 for this one, couldn't recommend it more.

This is a beautiful place to sit inside and watch the storms and waves roll in. Beds were comfortable as well as the living room furniture to watch the ocean. Probably one of the best stocked kitchen with staples and games. We loved the location as it was very peaceful.
