Cove Beach is one of the more unusual spots on the Oregon Coast.  The shore slopes to the ocean with large, polished cobblestones that run most of the shoreline.  It’s a rare sight to see.  Sometimes the slope is carved into odd tiers, sometimes sloping gradually, sometimes steep.  At high-tide the ocean crashes loudly onto the steep cobblestone shore, then makes an unusual clattering sound as the waves recede and pull on the rocks.

The cobblestone slope leading down to a sandy beach. Depending on tide conditions, at low-tide there’s usually ample beach showing to walk on.  The beach is flanked by an outcropping of large rocks at each end, is about 2 miles in length and rarely occupied.  During the summer months a wide beach emerges for recreation during low-tide, sometimes you can walk around the rock outcropping at the north end to the neighboring beach, Arch Cape.  Cliffs, mysterious cove areas and tide pools can be seen.  On the south end, large boulders and tide pools occupy the shore.  Two large island rocks sit just offshore, making for a beautiful view from both the beach and house.  North of the home, you will see a pond as well, that is filled with driftwood.  This is perhaps one of the most hidden spots on Oregon’s entire coast, with very few knowing of its existence.  Please be courteous and polite when staying in our quiet neighborhood.
