The Drifthaven at Gearhart

"LOVELY spot in cute Gearhart. Easy walk to open, relatively private, sandy beach, and short drives to Seaside and Astoria. Was a perfect midway spot for a romantic weekend on the northwest coast of Oregon. The room was cozy and had everything needed. The staff provided exceptional and welcoming service. Felt at home here. Can’t wait to return."

"Great location, just a short walk to the beach. The motel is updated, attractive and very clean. My room had a nice new TV and beautiful gas stove heater with real flames. Unfortunately the bed was super soft, which is fine for a nap but it lacked support, it didn't even have a box spring so it sat very low. It was one of the worst night's sleep I've ever had at a motel, hotel, etc. Breakfast was included but it was unforgettable."

"The Drifthaven is a lovely little spot in Gearhart. My wife and I enjoyed our weekend stay. The rooms are very nicely sized for a couple - or even a group of 4. The location is great for being quiet and within short walking distance of the beach."

"My first visit and it’s adorable! My room was clean and had everything I needed for my stay with my puppy. I loved that I was at the end of one side of rooms near the patio deck and grass. My puppy is good but not perfect. We had to go out a lot before bed since he is a little crazy at night and takes a lot of time to settle down. I thought the dog dishes were a nice touch and that the room being fresh and clean, was also comfortable for my dog. Everyone was nice and the service is good. Loved breakfast at my door each morning. If I had to pick one thing that could be improved as a former innkeeper, it would be that if given the opportunity to check-in and out on-line, it should be seamless. I was unable to check-in before my stay and I’ve been working on using the check-out on-line option since last night and the site won’t allow it because I didn’t leave a list of amenities I did not use? Maybe it’s me but it doesn’t have to be this hard to do this from my room bed on my phone :)!! I will definitely be back because of the location, the room, the service and it’s all quite adorable."

"Wonderful stay. It was our first time visiting Gearhart and we fell in love. Our stay at Drifthaven was great. Comfortable, quiet and private. Really bummed we didn’t get a welcome cocktail, was looking forward to it after our draining drive. 4 stars because the office hours were not clear. It took us a while to figure out to get into our room when I was under the impression someone would be there. And it would have been great to been able to grab some ice before the office closed."
