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.

This place was absolutely adorable. Their attention to detail surpass that of any of the big chain hotels. I felt welcomed and though my business was earned. I will absolutely come back. Oh and did I mention it was spotless!

As an East Coaster thousands of miles away, I was delighted to stumble upon The Drifthaven online ahead of my boyfriend and I's one night stay in Gearhart. Upon arrival + our stay, I was even more delighted - by the coziness, by the aesthetic, by the service (from a very welcoming Cassie). The attention to detail in the room made the stay even more special. Special shout out to Charlie and Heath for taking nearly 10 minutes just to chat with me about recommendations onward to Tilamook on our way out. Thanks all for the wonderful stay!

I was disappointed with this place, we got no welcome anything, the breakfast was not anything to write home about and the owners or managers of the place were not friendly in the least bit. Although the rooms were decent and location but I would not stay here again! Don’t stay here if you are expecting a warm welcome or goodbye! They need to take some customer service courses!

Liked how old owners rooms were decorated better.was ocean theme. I'm not sure how nudes are coastal. Bed way too low, I have bad knees and I could hardly get up off bed. Very difficult. Kitchen table and stools more like a kids table. Not comfortable at all.

This was such a peaceful place to go in between our visit from Portland to Seattle. We ended up arriving when there was a wind advisory so while we were looking forward to our beach smores campfire, we were graciously given a hot beverage option brought to our room. The service was phenomenal and we 100% would love to go back and stay longer next time.

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.

Perfect weekend getaway for 2 with great service, location, and a sweet and cozy room complete with a fireplace, wifi, and tv! Would return.

This is an absolute gem of a place! Very clean, luxury bedding, incredible snacks and delightful breakfast that is delivered to your door in the morning. Too many great things to list at this place. The location is also top notch, few minute walk to a beautiful beach and a lovely bakery across the street. There are a lot of hotels on the coast that look nice that are not. This place lives up to all of its glory. Book it.

Lovey hotel and service! Really quaint rooms and suites, lovely bed, amazing small kitchen with loads of convenient amenities!
We only stayed one night but you can borrow bikes, kits for beach bonfires and beach toys for kids! Super kid friendly and the location is amazing - a stone throw away from a beautiful park and beach!

What a lovely surprise we happened upon finding the Drifthaven. The hospitality was on point, our room so beautiful and perfect for our need of downtime. We enjoyed a welcome drink and a lovely fire in the evening in the backyard. We were called home unexpectedly and the management team were gracious to our needs to leave early. We will be back!

I can be a very picky tenant, and this place is PERFECT. If you value CLEAN, Drifthaven is it. Stylish and functional, comfortable and organized. Everything you need and in a great location. Simple and simply beautiful. I have been in several hotels and vacation rentals across the nation, and I have never been so pleased to write a review on the first night. I feel at home here. Well done Drifthaven.

My boyfriend and I enjoyed our stay here. The staff was super friendly and helpful. The location is super convenient, close to Seaside, Cannon Beach and Astoria. I would stay here again!

Stayed here for a couple of nights. Exceeded all expectations. The room was super cozy and beautifully decorated. Rachel, the woman who runs the place was very kind, helpful, and always available if we needed something. The beach is just a short walk away and it’s located in a quiet charming part of Gearhart. Would definitely stay here again and next time bring the fur babies:)

Absolutely loved our stay at this cute bnb super close to the beach. As an interior designer, the decore was super cute! Rachel and her staff were absolutely wonderful and so accommodating. I look forward to staying here again! Super comfy king sized bed and cozy linens. I have one super minor thing, a warning sign of some sort as you pull into parking lot for low clearance cars. I didn’t notice the sharp angle when I drove up just before dark. I scraped the underside of my car driving in. From that point on I angled in and out of the entry.:)

This is the cutest cottage and excellent location away from the crowds, very close walk to the beach, room was SO clean and inviting. Loved the breakfast basket each morning and the customer service from Rachel was top notch! Can’t wait to visit again.

Even though my boyfriend and I only stayed one night, we’re already planning when we can go back! As soon as we sat on the bed after a long day of exploring the Oregon coast, we knew we wouldn’t want to leave! Everything was extremely clean and we loved every piece of the decor. The staff at The Drifthaven have done exceptionally well at creating a really unique and comfortable experience where every detail has been thought of! We especially loved the basket of treats for breakfast to start off our day! Having a parking space right in front of your door is incredibly convenient but take note that you pretty much have to back out and if there are cars next to you it can get tight. That was a very small thing we felt was worth mentioning but wouldn’t stop us from staying again!

We came in early and had a real need to get into our room. Spoke to Rachel and she made it happen. Thank you Rachel and Cassie for wrangling the rooms and getting us checked in early. This is true hospitality. You guys raise the bar on what hospitality is supposed to be, thank you.
Rooms are super cool, lots of amenities, definitely a hidden gem. Keep this one hush hush.

My boyfriend and I stayed here and we LOVED everything about this adorable inn. There was so much attention to detail and the staff were so kind. We will be returning in the future for sure!
