Spectacular ocean front views! You can't get any closer to the beach than this classic ocean front Cannon Beach home. Absolutely the best location in Cannon Beach.

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 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!

House was awesome. We had a great time. The only thing i wish i had realised before i chose my room was, the upstairs shower is super short. I am over 6 feet and it quickly became a family joke. We are so greatful that we were allowed to lease this property and we hope to again.

Haystack Views. Ocean Waves. Sea Breezes.

Haystack House has older wood finishes but well described as such by the owners. You can't beat being in town and the views of Haystack are picturesque. Our party was only 2 but a larger family would be very happy here. Booking Haystack House will be part of our future plans to the Oregon Coast.

We absolutely love this place! You can’t find a place like this right on the beach like this. The house is older but that doesn’t bother us because we are right on the beach. They also allow dogs and we are so thankful to bring out doggie family members with us. The upstairs shower is a little bit of a drawback because I have to bend over to fit and my husband has to take a shower in his knees because it is so short. I am only 5’2. We have kids and it is so nice to not have to lug everything to the beach and the kids can just run out to the beach and we can even just sit on the porch. The kitchen has everything we need. :) we had 8 people in the house this time and it works perfectly, we didn’t even use one room.

About the host

Host profile image

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
