About this property

Amazing View - Haystack Rock and the Needles

This treasure is unmatched for a traditional retreat to the beach. A mile south of downtown Cannon Beach and less than a city block’s walk to the sand, you can enjoy easy access to whatever your heart desires.

The Horner Beach House was built in 1928 to take advantage of the best view of Haystack Rock and the Needles. One of the original homes on the hill, the view includes an expansive panorama of the ocean as well as easy access to the beach. The house has just undergone an extensive remodel, preserving the beach cottage ambiance while ensuring that modern amenities make your experience comfortable.

There are several nesting pairs of bald eagles living in the hills behind the beach house. They fly directly overhead on their way to hunt on Haystack Rock. A fantastic spectacle! Haystack Rock is the best place on the coast to see Tufted Puffins from April to August. The Rock also hosts breeding Western Gull, Pelagic Cormorant, Pigeon Guillemot and Black Oystercatcher, Halequin Duck, Brown Pelican, and Peregrine Falcon seen in summer and Greater Scaup and Surf Scoter in Winter.

Beautiful house and view
This was the perfect spot to enjoy Cannon Beach! Beautiful view from the house, and a quick walk down to the beach and Haystack rock. Also very close to restaurants downtown. We loved it and hope to be back in the future!

Love this little house
This is a darling, immaculate, updated 1940 cottage. Small, but perfect for us. And room for many to sleep, which would work especially well in the summer when most of your time would be spent outdoors. The view of Haystack Rock is awesome, though there are electric wires and homes blocking it a bit. Beach access is easy. It seems clear that the owners have invested in the inside; the next step might be to improve the parking, which is not ideal. Still - we are hoping to visit again. It has become our new favorite Cannon Beach hideaway.

Relaxing, great view
The view of the beach and Haystack Rock are great. We watched surfers in the morning from living/dining room area. And the waves all afternoon. There was enough room for 5 of us. Even though there’s only one full bath downstairs and half bath for upstairs it all worked out. I would book this house again in the future.

4-day getaway October 2024
This adorable restored family home clearly had a lot of love put into it and attention to details. It had plenty of room for our family of 4. Very short walk to the beach, lots to walk to in town both north and south. Didn’t do a lot of cooking, but kitchen was very well stocked. Super clean and beds were very comfortable. Easy gas fireplace to keep the house warm during the cooler nights. Would definitely go back and recommend to friends. Thank you!!

Incredible Stay
This was our first stay with family at this incredible location. The cottage is immaculate with outstanding views and very well appointed. Enjoyed a very quiet cliffside neighborhood setting with close beach stair access to Haystack Rock. You may hear elk bugling in the evenings with an occasional elk siting right off the driveway. We look forward to returning in the future! We want to thank Peggy & Amy for this memorable experience.

Great Place to Stay
We felt very fortunate to stay at this house. Though an older property we loved the charm of the cottage and the fact that the owners have continuously updated it to provide a comfortable atmosphere. I can't think of anything that we didn't find at the house that we wished they had, kitchen was very well stocked etc... It was nice to stay somewhere where you could tell the owners had very much a pride of ownership of the property. The views from the house as well as the deck were great and access to the beach was just a short walk down the hill to the public access point (which was just rebuilt).

Beautiful Views
Every time we walked into the living and saw Haystack Rock, so close, it was special. The house is perfect. Clean, well stocked and, plenty of room. A very short walk to the beach. Evening campfires, smores and sunsets. What else do you need. Loved our stay. The owners have done fantastic work, in every detail, renovating the entire house. Thank you!

Girls’ weekend
Perfect. The newly remodeled house is well thought out and beautifully decorated. We noticed every single detail. The beds were very comfortable. We left the windows open and heard the ocean all night. It is a short walk to the beach and a 15 minute walk to the main part of Canon Beach. The kitchen was the most well equipped of any place we had ever stayed. Loved it.

Gorgeous view to wake up too!
This property has a gorgeous view of haystack rock! We enjoyed watching the sunsets in the evening very much. This is a very clean property, with chairs and beach toys you can borrow for the beach. A short walk to get to public access to beach. Only drawback was that the beach access closest to the house is closed. We would stay here again ;)

About the host

Hosted by Peggy Amato

Host profile image
When we were kids we used to go to Cannon Beach because our neighbors had a house there. Relatives from North Dakota were treated with trips to the beach whenever they visited. After the death of our father, our mom bought this house in 1974 looking forward to spending her retirement at the beach she so loved. It was a favorite spot for family and friends alike.

Mom wanted to share this beautiful spot with friends and began renting. We are happy to continue making the house available for others to enjoy.
