My Love for the More Deserted Beaches

By Martin Cross, December 31, 2024

The Oregon Coast has always been as special place to me. I always find peace in listening and watching the waves. But rather than the long expanses of sand, I prefer the rugged cliffs, giant rocks, and crashing waves. And, even better are the less common  instances that I’m able to access a more private beach such as Three Rocks near Lincoln City which is only accessible by boat or private access. There’s something extra magical about the places where less people have even been. These hidden gems, far from the crowds, hold a special kind of serenity that I find impossible to find anywhere else.

He/Him

I've lived in the Portland-Vancouver area my entire life, so I'm very familiar with its many neighborhoods—both in the heart of the city and throughout the suburbs. A few years ago, I made the move to Vancouver to be closer to my grandkids and even closer to nature. I love how easy it is to get outdoors here, whether it’s a walk through the Salmon Creek or Burnt Bridge greenways, or a stroll along Vancouver's fantastic waterfront. After nearly 25 years of filling homes with beautiful art and design as the owner of vintage furnishings and art galleries, I transitioned my passion for finding great pieces for great people into a career in real estate. My eye for quality and attention to detail benefit both buyers and sellers alike. Having owned and operated businesses for most of my life, I bring with me a strong background in problem-solving, collaboration, and hard work. I always say, “Great things rarely come from a 40-hour work week.” If you're looking for a dedicated, responsive, and compassionate Northwest native to help you buy or sell, I’d love to connect. Whether you're searching for a Craftsman, a Midcentury Modern home, a new build, a fixer-upper, or an investment property—from single-family rentals to duplexes or small apartment buildings—I'm here to help you make it happen.
