The house is located in Cove Beach/ Falcon Cove (the area is know by both names). Falcon Cove is 7 miles south of Cannon Beach just west of Highway 101. It is a beautiful area, gravel roads, lots of woods - very quiet. The house is small about 800 sq. ft. There is one bedroom with a Queen bed and a smaller second bedroom with a trundle bed (twins). The home is the right size for 4 people unless the kids are small and can share a twin.
The beach is rocky with lots of tide pools and sea creatures on the south end. At low tide there is a nice sandy beach - you can walk to Arch Cape - great rock formations.
The house has a microwave, washer and dryer for small loads. TV, DVD, VCR. lots of books and movies. There is a picnic table and small deck. There is a nice ocean view from the front window. The beach access is across the street from the house. This part of the Oregon Coast has spectacular rock formations and sea life. There are many inland hiokes as well with old growth sitka spruce forests and waterfall features.
Falcon Cove Beach is surrounded by Oswald West State Park. The trail to Oswald West Park and Short Sand Beach is about 2-3 miles long. The ravines are bridged so there are nice hike for all ages. You can walk to the trail head from the house (steep hill) or park on the road at the turnout and go from there ( it is just a little west of Hwy. 101 on Falcon Cove Rd.)
The beach access is across the street from the house. There is sand only at low tide but there are great tide pools on the south end and at low tide you can walk to Arch Cape on the north end. The area is very private, even in the summer; there is a nice yard and woods around the house. |
