(Cannon Beach, Oregon) – Finding a place to stay in Cannon Beach is an art all its own, filled with wonders and yet possible wrong turns, if you don’t find exactly what you’re looking for. The north Oregon coast legend has no shortage of amazing options, and among them are the vacation rentals that abound throughout town. These are a bit hidden below the surface; harder to find and sift through than the simpler, more obvious motel options.

In that spirit, here are a handful of amazing rentals you’ve never heard of – and a look at the beaches near them.



Seascape Retreat, Cannon Beach Rental

About this Cannon Beach home and area: if you're lucky you may get to encounter the "squeaking sands" of Cannon Beach. This is an unsual noise the sands make under certain weather conditions. It is impossible to predict, however.

Ocean Villa (near Ecola State Park). Secluded, sprawling, and singularly spectacular, Ocean Villa is a standout vacation home in the Cannon Beach area. Located near the entrance to Ecola State Park, this expansive six-bedroom retreat accommodates up to 12 guests (plus a pet or two, with a fee). A quiet road separates you from the beach, placing you just steps from the Chapman Point access. On rare, ultra-low tide days, this path leads to Crescent Beach - Cannon Beach's most secret stretch of sand. The rest of the year, your only way is a scenic mile-and-a-half trail begins nearby, winding through forest to this gem of a beach. If staying in is more your style for the moment, Ocean Villa's west-facing mega-deck offers sweeping coastal views and a barbecue setup perfect for laid-back afternoons. From here, the sound of the surf drifts in on the breeze, soothing and hypnotic, especially as night falls.

Located midway between Manzanita and Cannon Beach, it sits near Cove Beach, a hidden gem on the north Oregon coast famed for its “talking rocks” (or “magic rocks” to locals): tide-touched stone piles that emit a curious, clattering sound. Though not directly beachfront, Santa Cristo is just a short walk from the shore, nestled in lush forestland where dappled sunlight creates enchanting visual effects. The home offers sweeping ocean views and is even known for its prime whale-watching vantage. Spanning 4,800 square feet, the main floor serves as the central hub, with walls of windows framing treetop and ocean vistas.

Rich blues dominate some rooms, while others feature warm wood tones and crisp white finishes. Outside, a multi-tiered deck offers endless photo opportunities, and the basement opens to the outdoors, complete with a second sunroom for quiet lounging or morning coffee.

Beaches Closeby: Arcadia Beach (less than four miles south of Cannon Beach) is a state park with plenty to offer, no matter the time of year. If the tides are too wild and dangerous, there’s a viewpoint just above it to still enjoy the sights. During summer’s extremely high sand level events, the beach expands greatly and you can even walk beyond the main rock structure, Lion Rock.

Close is Hug Point, one of the most incredible spots on the entire Oregon coast. A waterfall, a funky old, abandoned road carved out of the rock and much more occupy this amazing place.


Nantucket West Vacation Rental, Cannon Beach. Nantucket West is a stunning vacation rental that comfortably hosts up to eight guests. Tucked into the quieter north end of Cannon Beach, this serene retreat is just minutes from downtown yet close to the peaceful, lesser-traveled sands near Chapman Point.

Step inside to a welcoming entry hall with wood floors, nautical artwork, and a cozy bench that sets the tone. At the end of the hall, a pristine kitchen awaits - complete with granite countertops, stainless steel refrigerator, and electric stovetop. A central island doubles as a breakfast bar, ideal for casual bites or morning coffee. The adjacent dining room overlooks a lush backyard, while the living room features a stone fireplace, skylights, and a large TV - perfect for relaxing after a day of beachcombing. Out back, a spacious deck offers a hot tub beneath a charming gazebo, and a fire pit invites campfire-style evenings under the stars.

About This Oregon Coast Beach: You’re a few miles south of Cannon Beach proper here, a place nicknamed “Magic Rocks Beach” for the odd noises the piles of stones make here. Most times of the year there isn’t much to the beach: it’s a small stretch between access and tideline. In summer, it really opens up and you can sometimes access the far southern cliff wall and see fossils embedded there.
