About this property

Ocean Front Retreat Cabin

Just south of Cannon Beach, OR, Far Cry is located down a secluded, wooded road and sits just above the beach with a full view of the Pacific Ocean. The north end of the beach is Cove Beach and at low tide a cave to Arch Cape is accessible. To the south is Falcon Cove named after Cape Falcon, a headland which rises 750' out into the Pacific Ocean. Maximum of four occupants. There are two separate bedrooms, one bath, a fireplace, hiking trails and lots of old movies and games, comfy chairs in which to relax your cares away and of course 180 degrees of ocean right outside. The kitchen is stocked with spices and cooking utensils. Fresh linens await your arrival. For now, 1-2 dogs are welcome for a $25 per dog. Water is to be conserved at all times.
Welcome to Far Cry:
'The Sea runs wild and beautiful in our blood, which probably explains why the far cry of the gull haunts us even beyond earshot. So our ocean home, forever beckoning, is named 'Far Cry.'

Keywords: Ocean front; Cannon Beach, OR; Oregon Coast, OR coast; secluded; romantic.

Wonderful retreat!
We loved our stay with our pups at Cape Arch Far Cry cottage! It is peaceful and so comfortable. We loved having a front row view of the ocean waves. It is also close to Manzanita and Cannon Beach for stores, restaurants and beach walks. It was perfect for our getaway!

Secluded beachfront house.
The description of the property was accurate. Very cute, cozy ocean front property. The beach access is right next door, however, the beach really is only safe during low tide as there is very little beach left which requires you to drive to another beach during the day. The house is comfortable and “beachy”. The low water requirements may hinder you a bit, but with just two of us, we didn’t mind. The property is in an area with few houses and down a narrow road so be prepared for this. We had a big storm and power outage and had trouble finding needed supplies. The views are spectacular and the place is very peaceful.

Favorite place on the Oregon coast!
We love the far cry cabin. This was I think are 6th stay, and as always it was great! The pelican migration was on and we saw at least 500 fly through. We even had about 80 roust on the beach in front of us for a while. There was even one whale that came through. It’s my favorite place on the Oregon coast.

Beautiful property
We really enjoyed our stay at far cry. The property is beautiful! The only draw back was the water restriction situation that wasn’t stated until the check in directions came, it’s challenging to conserve water when everyone (family of 4) is always covered in sand and needs separate showers. Otherwise we had a great stay!

Perfect place to stay with dogs
This place is the O.G. vacation rental. The location is perfection. Great place for a relaxed stay with dogs on the beach. The kitchen was well stocked. The water situation a bit of a hassle. I’m happy to conserve but “wash dishes in bins stored under the kitchen sink and empty the water outside” definitely complicated things. Otherwise, this place is perfectly private but not fancy.

Much Needed Peace and Relaxation
Far Cry is a beautiful little property in a breathtaking location. The beach truly provides a sense of grounding and peace. The house was clean and comfortable. I had a wonderful stay with my mom, just relaxing and spending time together. There are some water limiting issues with the septic tank, not a problem for just the two of us, but may be difficult to manage with more people. Overall, it was a fantastic stay. I definitely hope to return someday.

Why they chose this property

Buying Far Cry in 1985-86 on New year's Eve was a dream come true. The house was a true fixer. Over the years improvements were made, but the integrity of the 1953 original house was maintained. A strip of the original wall colors was left in the hall way just for fun. Far Cry is in a quiet residential neighborhood. It is private without being too remote . The best part is the 180 degree view of the Pacific Ocean. I hope you enjoy my little piece of Heaven as much as I do.
