About this cabin rental
Anchors A-Way is a classic 1965 A-Frame. The original owners have been using it as a family getaway since they purchased it in 1976, and it's now been passed on to the second generation. It's a time capsule of mid-century modest. With only 600 square feet it's a darling little gem. The living room, dining area, kitchen and bathroom are all downstairs, and it includes 2 built in twin beds that also serve as sofas.
This house is for the young, or young at heart as it has a ladder-stairway to the loft, where you'll find the queen bed. It's super close to the beach, but in a marvelous wind protected location so you can enjoy the deck in the morning, afternoon and evening. It has as much outdoor living space as there is inside. There is a picnic table for outside dining as well.
You'll find 2 rattan swivel rockers, and a 40-inch TV on a rolling cart. It has streaming internet TV with Sling. The built in twin beds are perfect for children, or taking a quick nap in the afternoon, while curled up with a book.
I have a thing for A-frames, they've been disappearing, right and left in Florence and on the West Coast in general, as people rip them down and toss up more practical housing. I blogged about this A-frame and Helmsman's Hide-A-Way in January & March of 2013; little did I know I'd wind up with both of them in June 2013 as vacation rentals. While these 2 represent opposite ends of the spectrum, they're both fantastic pieces of history, if you enjoy rustic, funky, and fun historic houses you'll love them, as much as I do. If you're really into A-frames and oddities, ask me and I'll provide you with a self-guided tour list, to see in the neighborhood.
Since we took on this house the owners have passed on this house to their daughter. I loved hearing the family stories, telling me about swinging out of the loft (before we put in the new loft rail - it's amazing any of us survived ;-) Since we took it on 7 years ago, we have replaced all the windows, siding and re-built the deck rail benches, plus replaced the refrigerator and range. In the fall of 2023, we replaced the exterior deck.
Enjoy Burgers & Brew "where the locals hang out" at Jerry's Place within walking distance or Anchors A-Way is a short drive from the Historic Old Town Florence gift shops, the Antique District, art galleries, wine bars, coffee bistros, and fabulous seafood restaurants. Explore some of the best fishing on one of 17 local lakes, or play on some of the finest sand dunes, and state parks that Oregon has to offer.

My husband and I arrived at our little cabin on Sunday, Property is as described. I wouldn’t recommend this for anyone having issues with climbing. As you have to climb steep ladder like stairs to get to the bed to b the loft. Besides the neighbors yelling at night and the neighborhood dogs barking often, everything was peaceful and quiet with the neighborhood. Five minute walk to the gorgeous beach. Close to town and close to the local shops. This isn’t really a secluded cabin as it looks in the photos. It’s like it’s in someone else’s backyard. But still in a nice area. Would stay again!
