My family had never visited Cannon Beach and we were blown away by the beauty of this place. The Dorothy Lou Beach home was perfect regarding location, convenience and outdoor/indoor spaces.

Everything was great, our stay at the Dorothy Lou has become a yearly tradition. The house fits our family perfectly and it’s an easy walk to the beach. The decks are great to sit and relax.

We had another very enjoyable week at the coast thanks in large part to this ideal home setting. The home and kitchen are very well-equipped and the location is ideal - a short walk to the beach; far enough from town to escape some of the busyness, but close enough to make it there and back on a nice beach walk. Sand toys our 2 and 5-year-old grandchildren, a pack-n-play for the 8 mo. old to sleep in; a wagon for transporting toys, wood, s'more and hot dog fixings to the beach. A nice spacious 2nd floor open living room/kitchen for all, and 2 nice outdoor decks, with the back deck looking out onto a green space. Ample and nicely furnished bedrooms to accommodate a large extended family. We hope to return in the future.

Beautiful location and home. Would stay again if in the area.

Our family (my husband and I, our 7 year old son, and his grandparents) all loved staying at the Dorothy Lou. The home itself is very clean and well appointed, plenty of towels and linens. Having access to the beach, amazing coffee shop, and grocery store all within walking distance made our stay a breeze. Some of our favorite memories we will take from the trip are our morning walks to the tide pools by Haystack Rock and playing board games around the table in the evenings. We would love to stay again!

I booked in for a 9 night stay this year and had a number of friends come and go over that time. Everyone enjoyed their stay. The house is very well equipped, the beds are comfortable, there is an ocean view from the living room and deck and from one of the bedrooms upstairs, the location is terrific and Karl, the owner, is very responsive and quickly answers any questions. I hope that we can come again next year.

This was a great property and experience and it enhanced our visit to Cannon Beach. The location is perfect for access to the beach, hikes, biking, shopping, etc. We would definitely stay here again when we visit Cannon Beach.

This house is perfect. Plenty of space for everyone to move around. The decks are great for catching some afternoon sun and the kitchen has everything you need. The owner is prompt with check in details and very reachable if needed. This was our 3rd stay and already have the house booked for next summer. Beach is also a very short and easy walk.

The Dorothy Lou home was ideal for our extended family vacation. Very nice and spacious 2nd floor living space and dining area with access to 2 decks. Very well-equipped kitchen. The owner had beach toys available in the garage for our 2 and 4 year old granddaugthers, beach chairs for the 1st generation, and a wagon to transport it all on the short walk to the beach.
Owner Karl was helpful and very responsive to messages.

This was a very comfortable setting for my two grown daughters and myself for a couple of days while we explored Cannon Beach. We were very pleased to be a little removed from the busier part of Cannon Beach and enjoyed walking down to the nearby pub for beers and dinner and to the two stores to get any missing items.
The kitchen seemed well stocked, although we did no cooking. The beds were all comfortable and had plenty of extra blankets available if needed. It is worth noting that there are two steep flights of stairs in this house and one flight is unavoidable if one is to make use of the kitchen and communal area of the home.

Wow! Had the time of our lives. Plenty of room to sleep our family of 5 adults and 4 children with one under 2. Had pack and play for baby to sleep in, and high chair too. Close walk to the beach. Only problem we had was it had a lot stairs, which we already knew, but the grandson broke his ankle the first day and that was a challenge. We still had a great time and I would recommend this place as a great place to stay. Thank you to the Hadley family for opening their home up to us.

The Dorothy Lou Family Home was very comfortable, well-kept and convenient, and felt like relaxing at your personal ocean getaway. The well designed kitchen was well-stocked with cookware, cooking utensils, spices, coffee filters, pantry essentials, etc. The location is convenient to most of the local attractions, including a three-block walk to the closest beach access. The ground floor bedroom suite with TV sitting area and walk-in shower was an added bonus because it made the house more accessible. We slept well in the comfortable beds. There was an abundance of hot water and large, plush towels, especially ideal for the deep soaking tub. In a quiet neighborhood with views of the ocean and Haystack, the Dorothy Lou Home was perfect for our family retreat. We look forward to coming back!

This house was Exactly as advertised and was perfect for my various groups of friends who came over an 11 day period. The location is great; a short walk to the beach, a short walk to the grocery store, a short walk to the pub. The house is very well equipped with lots of cookware, glassware, small appliances, spices, coffee filters, laundry soup - really everything. There are even good knives, which in many places is not the case. The beds were very comfortable and there was always plenty of hot water. There are 3 televisions which we never watched as we were lucky with the weather and spent a lot of time outside. There are games and puzzles as well. Parking is easy. There is a nice ocean view from the deck and the living room and one of the upstairs bedrooms. I had a couple of questions and Karl responded instantly. I would recommend the Dorothy Lou house without hesitation and hope to visit again in the next year or two. It's a great spot from which to enjoy Cannon Beach and the surrounding area.

This home perfectly accommodated our family, including 3 kids under age 7 and grandparents. It was cozy, yet spacious. It was bright and clean. Everyone had a comfortable and quiet place to sleep. Loved having the garage to unload and keep all of our sand filled shoes and toys. The host was very helpful, easy to communicate with, and thoughtful. It was a very quick walk to the beach. Also loved this southern side of cannon- beautiful and more quiet than downtown. The home was even better than we expected and we really hope to be back.

We loved our girls weekend at the Dorothy Lou Family Home. We had just a short walk across the street to the beach to watch the sunset and take a nice walk. Great location and nice quiet neighborhood. The house was very well stocked and laid out. The kitchen had everything that you could possibly want or need. Lots of towels in the bathrooms and nice bedding. We will definitely go back again!

The property manager was very responsive and even called to check in on us when he heard the power was out. The home is cozy with more beach views than the photos let on. Beds were very comfortable and linens of good quality. The kids enjoyed playing flashlight hide and seek when the power was off and we had a very nice stay.

It was difficult getting everyone to commit to a date but everyone was so glad we stayed at this location once it was over. Perfect location and the home was clean and fantastic!
10.0 / 10.0
We had a wonderful stay at this property! Not only was it super clean and well cared for, but the owners include such things as hair dryers, soap, coffee filters, etc.
The beds were comfortable, and the pillows were really high quality.
The location is ideal, very close to the beach, the town, but quiet enough to be a relaxing retreat.
We even saw an elk in the yard across the street (bonus!)
I would highly recommend this property, the owners were very professional and the pride they have in this home really shows!

This was our family's first visit to Cannon Beach and we thoroughly enjoyed the four days from start to finish. This house was wonderful -- very clean, spacious, well-equipped, quiet and easy access to the beach. We plan to re-book it for a week next summer. Highly recommended!
10.0 / 10.0
We used the car only once during our stay. The house was perfect for two kids under the age of 4 and 6-7 adults. We would walk to the beach in the morning ( 2 minutes), in the afternoon and sunset. Naps, lunch and dinner in between. A good grocery store was just a couple of blocks away, great coffee and bakery, a pizza place and a pub all within a block. The best beach to walk on about 7 miles end to end. Flat and entertaining with views, people and dogs. Beautiful
The house is so kid friendly with a great bath for the kids. We really appreciated the well stocked kitchen, decks and open plan.
Beach chairs, a little wagon, umbrellas and sand toys were provided.
Quiet master on the first floor was great for the grand aunts.
Washer and dryer came in handy as well as the BBQ.
Only one small recommendation. We hope the owners will buy some cheap beach towels for their clients. We flew in from Canada and California and had to purchase beach towels. We hope they will consider supplying them next time. Otherwise the family reunion was just perfect for making starfish memories!

This house is just perfect! Plenty of space for everyone. The decks are beautiful, neighborhood is quiet and easy walk to the beach. The home is stocked with everything you need and the owners are amazing and respond quickly. We’ve already booked it for next summer.

Fabulous accommodations!
Everything in the VRBO description was accurate and then some! Home is lovingly well taken care of. We had absolutely no issues.
Kitchen was extraordinarily well appointed. Bailed us out, more than once. I stayed in the king “suite” on the ground floor and slept like a baby!

Perfect family vacation location
Just a short walk to the beach, this was a great place to stay for our family vacation. There was plenty of space for six people to relax and enjoy the coast. We liked the soaking tub and the showers were as nice as an upscale hotel that we stayed at in the area. The kitchen was bigger than we expected. The house was very clean and we could find everything we needed throughout our stay. Lots of outdoor seating to listen to the ocean with your morning coffee. Close enough to walk to good coffee, a grocery store, and Moe’s restaurant. I’d definitely stay here again.

Wonderful getaway
We had family in town from San Jose and took them to Cannon Beach. We stayed at two nights at the Dorothy Lou Family home which was lovely. The house had everything you would need. Karl provided us with detailed information regarding the house, places to visit, eat and things to do in the area. We would definitely recommend staying here. We hope to return in the near future!

Updated home with easy beach access
Three levels in this home allows for everyone to have some privacy. We did lots of cooking in the updated kitchen and found every tool we needed. The large double-door refrigerator is awesome. We enjoyed the pleasant patio plus deck with a nice ocean view. At all times we felt like we were “at the beach”. We highly recommend this property.
