Some stays feel like a true escape the moment you arrive, and Siletz Sanctuary is exactly that kind of place. Perched on piers above the beautiful Siletz River with water on three sides, this one-of-a-kind retreat offers a peaceful riverfront experience unlike anything else in our collection. Originally a historic cannery icehouse, the home blends rich coastal history with modern comfort, creating an unforgettable stay just minutes from Lincoln City, Depoe Bay, and the best of the Central Oregon Coast.

Few properties offer the kind of immersive setting guests find at Siletz Sanctuary. Surrounded by river views, forests, wildlife, and peaceful water movement, the property feels private, calming, and deeply connected to nature. It is the kind of place where guests can truly unplug, slow down, and settle into the rhythm of the river.

One of the most remarkable things about Siletz Sanctuary is how secluded it feels while still being close to everything. The property sleeps 6 guests with 2 bedrooms and 2.5 bathrooms, making it ideal for couples, a small family, or friends looking for a peaceful getaway with room to relax.
Guests love the spacious decks, cozy interiors, and the simple joy of sitting above the river with coffee in the morning or a glass of wine in the evening. The atmosphere here is less about hustle and more about slowing down, watching the water, and enjoying the calm beauty of the river valley.

Staying at Siletz Sanctuary puts guests close to fishing, hiking, Lincoln City beach days, whale watching in Depoe Bay, Cascade Head trails, and all the beauty of the Central Oregon Coast. The river itself becomes part of the stay experience, creating a retreat that feels both adventurous and restorative.
