Winter storms are here and the ocean is incredible. We have seen some whale spouts starting. Come to the only real ocean front B&B. Enjoy the tide pools at the cape or maybe find a Japanese glass float like our guests did last winter, a 16 inch one. Just four miles south of Cannon Beach, halfway between Astoria and Tillamook. Shaw's is a beach front property - step off the deck, stroll through the seaside garden, and you're on the beach! Recline on the deck and enjoy the sunshine, or sit back and soak up the view while the sound of the surf relaxes you.
Shaw's has now 35 years as a bed and breakfast. It has been a fantastic journey and we are going to continue for the forseeable future.
The guests' cozy living room is furnished with easy chairs, skylights, a sofa and more. Stretch out on the cushioned window seat and view the surf up close. During winter storms, thrill to waves exploding against Castle Rock, while a fire crackles in the fireplace. You can watch the beautiful ocean and migrating whales even from the dining area.
A garden patio greets you at the entrance to Shaw's Oceanfront Bed and Breakfast, and fresh flowers welcome you inside.
Jim and Barbara Shaw look forward to meeting you!
Activities
Besides relaxing at Shaw's Oceanfront Bed and Breakfast and enjoying Arch Cape's lovely beach, guests can have fun combing the beach, flying kites, surfing, fishing and exploring the tide pools.
In colorful Cannon Beach, just 4 miles away, visitors can enjoy local live theatre, browse the art galleries and great shops; or play golf on one of four courses within twenty minutes drive.
History buffs can enjoy Fort Clatsop National Monument, where Lewis and Clark spent the winter. It's less than 1 hour away. Closer yet is their rebuilt salt works in Seaside, just 12 miles north of Shaw's.
