“Wonderful spot for a quiet escape!”

person found this review helpful

My husband and I spent Sunday and Monday nights at the Gearhart Ocean Inn and LOVED it. Our room was charming, cozy, and comfortable. The Franklin stove warmed the room very nicely, the bed was very comfortable, the two bedside lamps were bright enough for reading (we've found this to be a problem in other hotels), and everything worked.

We enjoyed the special touches of hospitality: saltwater taffy, sparkling cider, microwave popcorn, and hot chocolate packets, in addition to Torrefazione coffee and several kinds of tea. Reading materials were on the bedside tables, and an emergency kit for power outages was in the dresser. There were plenty of hooks in the bedroom and bathroom for clothes and towels. Really, nothing was overlooked! It was a perfect getaway for two worn-out people who just needed to relax.

A fairly large DVD library is available at no charge, and wireless internet is free in the rooms. There is a large garden area with tables, chairs, and a fire pit.

The office staff was welcoming and helpful. Melissa was on duty most of the time we were there, and she answered my numerous questions about the area patiently and with a smile.

I can't wait to go back!

Room Tip: We stayed in an end unit, and there was no one in the room next to us--so we had the peace and quiet...

“Cape cod like retreat.”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 24 October 2011

I love visiting gearhart. The grassy beach, the bakery and nearby golf course. Everything is right there for a weekend getaway. There is even a small store if you need supplies. The rooms reminded me of Cape Cod and were really comfortable. We even brought our pets. We drive in from Portland and this is a great place to land if you are like us and trying to avoid staying in Cannon Beach with all the tourists.

“More than I imagined”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 8 September 2011

This place was incredible! The location was excellent and the customer service was even better. The Inn provides complementary DVD rentals and beach cruisers. The Inn is located minutes from the beach which allowed easy access at sunset and sunrise. I would highly recommend this to anyone!

“Can't wait to return”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 29 July 2011

Love, love, LOVE this cottage.

Location is AMAZING -- just a 5 minute walk from the gorgeous beach and a 5 minute drive to the quaint town of Seaside. It's clean and comfortable, and was fantastically decorated. The backyard was also a great perk; loved being able to have a fire!

Also, the woman who works for the cottages was extremely nice, and it was a pleasure to deal with her.

Would recommend this place, and will definitely be returning :)

“Great Place to stay”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 29 July 2011

My husband and I and our dog have been staying at the Gearhart Ocean Inn the past 5 years and have loved it! Not like the crowded and loud hotels in Seaside. Very pet friendly and they even leave a dog basket in your room which my dog enjoys the biscuits. Nice little area out back to walk your dog and sit and enjoy. Even has a barbeque. We like Gearhart because it is quiet and you can drive your car on the beach. The staff are the best!! In the past we have stayed on the days that the bakery was closed but this year we stayed earlier and the bakery was open and I highly recommend the danish! Would never stay anywhere else.
