Location and Amenities
We are right on the sand—no roads to cross, no distance to measure. The lodge sits just south of Haystack Rock, an easy and scenic walk along the beach.
Many of our rooms at The Ocean Lodge offer an ocean view or are fully ocean facing. Most of these include private balconies or patios, where mornings begin with the sound of the surf and evenings settle into the rhythm of the tide. We also have non-view and limited-view rooms for consideration; please reach out with any specific needs and we’ll help find the perfect fit for your stay.
We do not have a pool, fitness center, or full spa onsite. Instead, The Ocean Lodge experience leans into something quieter—cozy fireplaces, peaceful oceanfront spaces, and the Pacific just steps away.
For wellness options, we offer complimentary passes to Cannon Beach Fitness and Cannon Beach Yoga Arts. Ocean Lodge guests also receive 20% off at LOMA Sauna House by mentioning The Ocean Lodge, including their sauna circuit with sauna, steam room, tranquil garden, and cold plunge pool.
We are also happy to connect you with local spas or help arrange an in-room massage with a trusted area therapist.
While we don’t have a full-service restaurant on-site, many of Cannon Beach’s most loved dining spots are just a short distance away—classic pubs, fresh seafood, cozy cafés, and intimate wine bars all within easy reach.
We do offer shuttle service, pending availability. Uber and Lyft are limited in Cannon Beach, and while visiting without a car is certainly possible, most guests find having a car to be the easiest way to arrive and explore the area.
Yes, we offer ADA-accessible rooms and accessible common areas. If you have specific needs, we’re happy to help guide you to the best accommodation.
