Singing Sands - Built in 1920!

Singing Sands is one of the most unique houses in Cannon Beach. Built in 1920 and remodeled in 1999 to retain the cabin appeal, this home has been in the same family for years. The beach is only one block away and downtown is just two blocks way - a great location to explore everything!

The first thing you notice at Singing Sands is the glassed-in front porch which is the perfect spot for a good book, a cup of coffee, or a little nap. The living room has lots of seating, book shelves to explore, a TV and cable to watch, and a gas fireplace to warm up after playing on the beach.

The kitchen is well equipped for cooking any type of meal or for just gathering together around the large kitchen table. Make sure to try out the 1940's milk shake mixer that's been the family for generations. If you need a little extra refrigerator room there is an extra one next to the washer and dryer in the back room. Make sure to check out the old menu hanging in the kitchen from the “Singing Sands” restaurant in Cannon Beach – it's a fun bit of nostalgia.

The back yard at Singing Sands is amazing. The deck has two picnic tables, outdoor chairs, a brick firepit, and horseshoe pit in the yard. There are also badminton and croquet sets. It's a great place to hang out if it's too windy at the beach.

There are three bedrooms and two baths with 1 king bed, 1 queen bed, and 2 twin beds so there's plenty of room for everyone.

Family getaway!

This was our first time in Oregon and it was beautiful! My father in-law has stage 4 cancer and he wanted to do one more salmon fishing trip… so we booked here! The property is so cute and walking distance to the beach! The neighborhood is quiet and clean! We felt like we were in the middle of everything…from Tillamook to Astoria! The property manager was easy to communicate with as we only had one issue of not being able to use the dishwasher! They responded immediately! We hope to come back in the summertime! Thanks for helping us make memories!

Quirky Little Cottage on the Cape

Took the whole family out west to visit the Oregon coast. Arch Cape: First off this is an amazing place to stay if you want to visit Cannon Beach but don't want to pay Cannon Beach prices. The beach here is every bit as amazing and almost completely empty. Cannon Beach is a 5 min drive away. The property was great. Good gathering area on the first floor. AMAZING upper floor for kids. My daughter loved running around up there. They included books and toys for the kids which was great. The property was clean, they welcomed us with coffee, were responsive to questions. Easily a 5 star review. The property is pretty close to the highway but still feels private. The beach is a 2 minute walk away.

Family reunion on the beach

The Shutterbug was a wonderful place to stay. My wife and I had three grown kids and their spouses/partners together for a reunion on the beach. It's a short walk to the beach. The house had everything we needed and the price was right (compared to similar beach homes nearby). Highway 101 is right behind the house but we never really heard it. We will be coming back sometime in the future.

View and close to beach

While you are right up against the highway, the traffic wasn't too bad. There was great views of the ocean from the place and you're only about 100 yards or so away, so easy walk down to the beach. While it is a bit of an older property, it was nicely setup and there was plenty of space should you want to have larger groups there. Arch Cape is nicely located, while it is a short drive either North or South for anything, it makes it that much quieter there!

Wonderful stay

The house was perfect for our family beach getaway. The walk to the beach was about 5 minutes and relatively easy for all ages. The house is about 10-15 minutes from Cannon Beach and Tolovana Park area. The property management company contacted me via text messaging a couple of times checking to see if there was anything they could do to make our stay enjoyable. There were a couple of issues with appliances and we reported the issues to property management so they could attend to them after our stay was complete. Overall, the house was above our expectations. We will be looking to book the Shutterbug again next year for our family vacation.

Just a few steps from the beach

The property is lovely, and located a very short walk from the beach as well as a very convenient short drive from Cannon Beach. Check in and check out were both straightforward. Our only complaint would be that the range had seen better days, but I expect that our group places more importance than most on doing our own cooking when on vacation.
