Location: Cannon Beach, Northern Coast, Oregon, USA (75 Miles from Portland, Oregon)
Accommodations: House, 3 Bedrooms, 2 Baths (Sleeps 8)
The Bonnie Nook is a very charming historic landmark. It was the 8th house built in Cannon Beach in 1908. It is furnished with turn of the century American antiques. The oak library table in the living room is original to the house. There are two small bedrooms downstairs, one with a antique double 1850's bed and matching dresser, and the other with two twin beds and antique armoire.
Upstairs is a very large room with one queen bed and two twins. There is a bathroom upstairs and one on the main floor. The spacious living room has a stone fireplace that houses a woodstove. We have wood that you can use.
There is an armoire that has surround sound TV and VCR, DVD, stereo with cassette and CD. There is a closet that has lots of games. The country kitchen is fully equipped and has an antique harvest table that seats 10.
The backyard has a large deck with two benches. It is very quiet and private and great for sunbathing and outdoor eating. We recently added a fire pit for marshmellow roasting and just sitting around the fire at night.
Once you are there, you do not have to drive anywhere (except home if you can bear to leave). The beach is 1.5 blocks, 3 blocks to town (or the village as some call it) and 2 blocks to midtown.
We have had the house for 18 years. One family has been coming for 17 years and says, "we are so thankful for your sweet place that has brought our entire family so much joy every summer". Other comments include, "we feel so at home here" and "this is the best bargain in Cannon Beach".
Again, we have a no smoking, no pet and no small children policy. Guests also bring their own linens: sheets, towels and dish towels. If this is not possible, other arrangements can be made.
For you bargain hunters, please note any last minute "specials" listed under RATES.

Why the Owner Chose Cannon Beach
In 1989 we drove through Cannon Beach and it was love at first sight. We noticed that there were no antique stores there and since Margie had a shop in Portland, we decided to open a shop in Cannon Beach. So if you are going to have a shop in CB, it might be nice to have a place to sleep at night. So began our search for a house. When we saw this cottage, we knew it had to be ours. It was sitting on the ground without a foundation, had no heat inside but it had the character and history that we loved. Gary jacked up the house, put in a furnace, new wiring and the list goes on. The history of the cottage is posted inside the house with some original photos. It is also featured in a book called "Cannon Beach Cottages" by Jill Grady. We love that the house in so centrally located and we do not need to drive once we are there. This is especially nice when the town gets really crowded and there is no parking. Cannon Beach is one of the prettiest coastal towns in the country. We feel so fortunate to have a home here.
The Unique Benefits of this House
Great little stores, interesting restaurants, beachcombing, the fresh salt air.
