The Ocean Lodge, Cannon Beach

We went back to Cannon Beach, OR for the 2nd time in April 2006 and this lodge was just in perfect location, at a beach front, day or night you can hear the waves crushing! Even with the TV on! You fall asleep hearing the waves and wake up in the morning hearing the wave! We were at a corner room where we can see the south, west, and north view of the ocean. The seagulls sometimes stopped at the balcony. Though this lodge are all view rooms. We just had to get out of the door, a couple of steps, then we're on the sandy beach! That one bedroom accommodation had so much space for us ( 4 adults and 1 5 y/o), big hideaway sofabed and three or four more large chairs in front of the fireplace and the separate bedrm had this comfortable bed with lots of comfy pillows. No odor in the kitchen and bath; neat and clean. Just love the library and reading areas at the lobby. Homemade cookies and coffee 24 hrs/day and wide selection of free continental breakfast. The only thing they don't have in this lodge is a restaurant. That was fine with us because Cannon Beach has several fine restaurants nearby this lodge. The first time we went to Cannon Beach we did not want to pay more than $100 for the room and we were about 1 or 2 blocks away from the beach, had to go for a long walk to see the haystack rock, but this time we paid the bucks but it was well worth the price.
