The Pilot House by AvantStay | Stunning Home Right On Arch Cape Beach!

Welcome to The Pilot House, an AvantStay home!

Spend your next family vacation at The Pilot House, a quintessential beach house perched on a bluff overlooking the Pacific Ocean and Arch Cape beach. This treasured escape is tailor-made for those whose vacation plans include board games, family feasts, oceanfront BBQs, and long, leisurely afternoons on the beach.

To make your vacation dreams come true, the Pilot House's garage is brimming with beach goodies (including beach toys, beach chairs, and more). Its kitchen cabinets are fully stocked for cooking up your favorite menu. Its expansive dining room table seats 8 in ocean-view comfort that can last long after sunset. And access to the serene beach is just 1/2 a block away.

In the comfy living area, an oversized, wraparound couch is your front-row seat to storm-watching in winter and glorious summer sunsets. Pull out a deck of cards, a puzzle, a board game, or that craft project you've been saving and make use of the four-person game table. A crackling fire in the wood stove completes this area's snug, soothing vibe.

You could spend your entire vacation cozied up together at The Pilot House. But should you decide to venture out, Cannon Beach is just ten minutes up the road.

SLEEPING ARRANGEMENTS
The Pilot House sleeps up to six guests in three bedrooms. All beds are wrapped in soft, high-quality linens.

The Primary Bedroom features a cozy queen bed; an adjacent bathroom has a soaking tub.

Two more bedrooms sit at the opposite end of the house—one with a queen bed and the other with twin bunk beds, perfect for your little pirates. Outside these two bedrooms is a sitting room with a flat-screen, cable-equipped TV for sports highlights and your favorite Netflix series.

A second bathroom with a walk-in shower and stackable washer and dryer is located nearby.

Walk less than a block to discover the unspoiled coastline of Arch Cape, with tidepools, waterfall and caves at nearby Hug Point. Or drive a bit to hike Neahkahnie Mountain, kayak in Nehalem Bay, explore the artist towns of Manzanita and Cannon Beach, horseback ride on the beach, or surf at Short Sands beach.

Personalize your stay by taking advantage of the concierge services offered to all Starfish Vacation Rentals guests! Whether it’s pre-arrival grocery shopping, in-home chef services for that special occasion, or an afternoon art class, we aim to make your stay at The Pilot House as convenient as it is classic.

Sweet Ocean Retreat
Friends celebrating turning 60! The Pilot House was perfect. Enough space for us as well as great views of ocean tides inside and outside. Watched the moon rise off the ocean and sunset. Great walking beach. Everything you need to cook dinner was available. Highly recommend The Pilot House

Coziest Beach House, Perfect Location
While the wind blasted off of the ocean just outside our back door, my family and I stayed warm and cozy in this perfectly outfitted beach house. We enjoyed the amazing views, comfy beds, closet full of games and puzzles, well-equipped kitchen, and overall charm and vibes of this special house! The location is a quiet neighborhood perfectly placed between Manzanita and Cannon Beach. We hiked at nearby Oswald West State Park and used the little trail a block away to access the beach. Everything was clean when we arrived, the AvantStay team was very responsive, and check-out process was a breeze. We will definitely be back!

Not to be missed (Reviewed by Husband)
Remember a time when drywall wasn't an option, and wall coverings were wood?. Well enjoyed. Such a special offering this place was sentimental and comfortable. I would definitely would love to go back, Our three teenagers even liked it (I think) First of all there was firewood and the firewood was a treat to use. It was fully seasoned and the fireplace made me feel like a king. A Blaze King! I would love to know who manufactures the bath as I want to put one in my house, and the Kitchen sink is a pleasure to use.; I also want to put in my house that I am currently building. Our family even finished a puzzle. I wanted to frame it! But we put it back to be enjoyed by another. The beach was good but the house was great.

Best View in Arch Cape
This house is charming. It’s efficient and well maintained but a renter doesn’t even notice that because the views are among the absolute best on that beach. Beach access is a breeze and everything is comfortable for the whole family.

Relaxing family getaway
This is an amazing home at the perfect location: sort of a Goldilocks property. It’s the right size and the beach access is very close. Arch Cape is a small town so the beach is not too crowded but close to both Cannon Beach and Manzanita. This is our new favorite coastal rental.

Very clean, ON the beach, beautiful sunset. Great house, manager was very good with getting us information. I love Arch Cape area, you can hear the waves from the house. My only draw back is the neighbors are 6 feet away... the windows on the side are looking into their window

Almost perfect.
Best part of the stay was the view. Trip would have been perfect if the back room bedrooms were nicer and there had been beach toys, towels and blanket or chairs.

Wonderful weekend!
Wonderful location. Out of the hustle and bustle of the beach towns but easy enough to get to. Just a block from the beach access. Love being able to look out the windows and see the ocean. Clean and comfortable house. Love all the pictures and maps on the wall. We will be back!

Beautiful incredibly well furnished home with stunning views
The house is setup with two distinct sides that would easily accommodate two families. There is table seating for twelve, and this is the best stocked kitchen I have experienced with any home lodging. From muffin tins to pancake griddles, to shellfish utensils and place settings for fifteen easily, the items were quality pieces and made for great home cooked meals. Between the seven of us, we never ran out of hot water for showers and the bathrooms are lovely. I would only ask that there be lights to illuminate the drive. Thankfully, the home is right at the T-intersection, however, lights would have made for an easier and more welcoming arrival. The views are to die for, the bits of history in prints and maps throughout are very interesting. WiFi worked well, TV (if your kids can’t live without it) worked well also. Bedding, towels, pillows are all plentiful and good quality. Blue tooth speaker for background music while dining, playing board games, or just sitting together taking in the view was a great touch. We had a wonderful stay, thank you!

Warm and Cozy in Winter
This was the perfect place for our family of four (college-aged kids) to relax together away from "it all" for the week before Christmas. Everything about the house was cozy and welcoming. The owner's attention to detail couldn't be better: an amazingly well-outfitted kitchen, logs and matches by the woodstove, pillows and sofa throws spread about, comfortable mattresses, and a deep, quick-filling bath tub. The beach is a half-block away public access, but that wasn't a problem. Because of the tide schedule, most of our walks were up at Cannon Beach, anyway. Note: we liked the map on the north wall of the livingroom area so much, we ordered it for our daughter for Christmas!

Home away from home, but with a better view!
My Uncle was visiting from Georgia and 6 of us fit very comfortably in the Pilot House. We loved how there were separate spaces/rooms to spread out and ones to join in & be together. There were wonderful amenities, fully stocked kitchen, towels & linens, everything you need to live at home away from home. It is not a handicap accessible home though, especially the shower, which was a little small, but still very nice. We have woodworkers in our family, so we enjoyed all the wood paneling of the home which gave it a cabin-like feel. The beach access was only half a block away, which was really nice. Make sure you have shoes to walk over the rocks before you get to the sand! Our favorite thing about the Pilot house, of course, was the view! You just can’t beat it. We enjoyed sitting on the deck, watching the sun rise and the sun set. Just breathtaking. We enjoyed watching the little bunny rabbits dart about the yard munching on grass & shrubs. Thank you, Carol, for opening your home so that others can enjoy a little home away from home on the Oregon Coast!
