The staff is very friendly and the place was very unique . I loved that I didn’t feel like I was in a dark box. There was so much natural light in the rooms! I still got to enjoy the day even though I was in my room. Yet there was still privacy.

Had a lovely stay in the standard king room. Room is very spacious and clean. The bed - though a bit too soft for me was cozy, with really great quality sheets. The location can’t be beat with walking distance to the beach and one block from coffee shops and restaurants. Dog friendly rooms came with bowls and even a treat for our dog! The breakfast basket is such a nice treat. Would stay here again and again.

The room was very clean, we loved the breakfast delivered to the door every morning. You could tell the owners put alot of care into the whole place. The bed in the room was super comfortable, however you could feel every single spring in the mattress of the pull out couch. All in all, excellent as long as you dont plan on using the pullout couch

Staff was great - super friendly and approachable. The courtyard is so cute and relaxing. Parking is tight, but you can park on the street. Breakfast delivered each morning which is nice - but would be less wasteful if we were asked about dietary restrictions. There were some things we don’t eat and it felt wasteful. That’s my only suggestion. We would stay again.

I just love how quiet and cozy this place at your heart in general is. It's easy to drive to Astoria to go shopping. Go out for a meal. Come back for a nap and less than 20 minutes. Also be in downtown Cannon Beach. You walk a couple of blocks and there's access to a much quieter beach than in Cannon Beach or Long Beach. And as a McMenamin fan, the fact that it's close to the McMenamins restaurant.

This is exactly what I was looking for. I am lucky to do a solo \"mom/artist retreat\" each year. The space offered a well stocked kitchen for cold foods and separate areas for the activities I wanted to do.

You walk in to a gas burning stove (that IS the heat source and attached to thermostat), music and mood lighting. Great welcome!

I can see why for some people it would not be ideal with steps, lower bed, smaller kitchen table. But for me it was perfect. Plus I loved the aesthetic.

Wish there a very brief PRINTED overview of rules/expectations. I.E. How to turn down heat, when breakfast comes, how to request items, etc.

The one big thing I really missed was a bath tub or soaking tub. That would have made the trip complete.

When we checked in our bed was soaked so they did move our room and upgrade us which was nice. We did not receive a complimentary welcome drink though. The morning pastries were too stale to eat, the couch was uncomfortable and the bed was too hard for me. It also would have been nice if staff brought fresh towels to the room daily but otherwise it’s a cute property.

Would’ve Been a Great Stay… Until the Injury

Drifthaven is undeniably charming: beautifully designed, cozy, and nestled in a peaceful part of Gearhart. I really wanted to love this place. Unfortunately, my stay ended with a serious injury due to a safety issue in the room that I feel compelled to share.
On the last morning of my stay, around 4am, I went downstairs to use the restroom. The stairs inside the room are not lit, and the banister ends on the second-to-last step, which makes it deceptive to navigate in low light. Because of the banister situation, I missed the final step, tripped, and fell hard, so badly that I could barely walk and had to go to Urgent Care that morning. My spouse had to drive out from Portland and pick me up, and I had to cut my trip short and cancel a work conference commitment due to the injury.
I informed staff immediately, and they said they’d notify the manager and follow up. I never heard back. I also submitted feedback via email the day after I left, still nothing. Between the medical bills, the disruption to my work, and the lack of response, I’m really disappointed.
I’m sharing this in hopes that management will take this seriously. Installing small lights along the stairs would be a simple fix that could prevent future accidents. I expected more attentiveness from a place that clearly puts so much care into its aesthetic and I am disappointed. I would love to stay here again, but would like the safety lights installed and for the customer service to improve first.

The decor and overall concept are really cute, and the space felt cozy, which I appreciated. That said, there’s definitely room for improvement. The unit we stayed in had an unpleasant odor, the shower pressure was weak, and the bathroom was a bit cramped—with some visible mold on the shower curtain, which wasn’t ideal. The mattress wasn’t firm enough for me, and the ceiling fan didn’t work, which made it hard to get proper air circulation. With a few updates, this could be a much more comfortable stay.

The first room (#3) felt small due to size of bed. Could hear the family next door so requested to be moved, which they were able to do. Beds and seating in both were not that comfortable (low to the ground, didn’t support our backs).
Kitchen no longer has oven. French press and water pot for coffee. Fridge pretty full of items they were selling so left little room for the items we bought for meals. Breakfast is continental only. Welcome drink was delicious,,

We enjoyed taking the 5 min drive to Seaside to check out the shops and such where it's busier but being able to sleep somewhere quiet and quaint. The staff was very nice and accommodating. The only qualm I have is that check-in is at 4 but they close the office at 6. I think staying open just one extra hour would be helpful.
