Broaden your beach horizons at this fantastic oceanfront getaway, built high up off the ground to maximize an incredible sea-and-sky panorama.

Ocean House is a three-bedroom, two-bathroom home located in a quiet area of south Cannon Beach. Its crowning asset is its sheer proximity to the sand, but the interior also packs a punch: high, vaulted ceilings, floor-to ceiling windows, and beautiful wood throughout lend an elemental vibe to the home’s welcoming open-plan layout.

Gorgeous stained glass, shells and great beach art – including an impressive collection of Cannon Beach Sandcastle Day posters – is on hand throughout.

The small kitchen featuring a bar and great cooking amenities links right up to the living room, where a gas fireplace stands ready to heat the home in a hurry. The din of the nearby ocean and some prime sunset watching beckon you to a cozy seating arrangement. Off to the sides of this main living space are two separate eating areas, one with a formal table and the other a small table tucked into a solarium. The solarium leads to a deck with a new gas barbecue plus outdoor furniture. A full bathroom is also available on this floor.

Upstairs, a loft bedroom with a queen bed and skylight overlooks the main living area. Admire the gorgeous Haystack Rock art, or simply peek out the windows to catch sight of the real thing – this home has fantastic views of Haystack Rock. The upstairs area also offers a bathroom with shower and skylight.

The home’s bottom floor comprises a cool, quiet sleeping quarters featuring two simple, clean rooms with queen beds, art prints, and windows overlooking foliage. A washer and dryer are also located on this floor.

Outside, there’s room to roam and romp in the large, well-maintained yard. Over a line of shrub and windswept trees, you’ll glimpse a quiet, easily accessible section of the beach. Covered parking is also available beneath the home. Pets are welcome, but this rental is not recommended for small children.

This clean, well-maintained house is long on sun, space and light; pull up a seat and get high on the wonder of your natural surroundings.

Beach access is just around the corner to either the south or the north. The access to the north is a short slope down to the sand, and the access to the south has a small stair case.
