Where the wild things play. Fish leap, river otters roll, and sunsets shimmer along this magical stretch of the Nehalem River: right outside your door. This efficient 1bd/1ba cabin delivers more than its footprint suggests, thanks to efficient design and thoughtful upgrades. Custom shutters open wide to blur the boundary between indoors and out, expanding the living space onto the covered riverfront deck- your all-season spot to watch the water, sip coffee, or stay dry on those soft coastal rain days. The cabin has been elevated above flood elevation, creating valuable space below: a single-car garage, plus room for storage, gear, or a workshop. Launch a kayak from the shoreline, cast a line from the dock, or relax while wildlife drifts past—this river changes every day, and you'll have a front-row seat. Just minutes from the coastal communities of Nehalem, Manzanita and Wheeler, and only 90 minutes from Portland, this cabin location couldn't be better! Get away from it all while not having to go too far. Short term rental may be a possibility here- buyer and buyer's agent to do due diligence.
