Over a hundred couples or small groups from four countries and 19 states chose the Gull House for their getaways these past two years. At least 4 engagements testify to the romantic possibilities! We invite you to read our guests’ comments before you choose that special place for your honeymoon, anniversary, family get-together or friends’ weekend.
The Gull House is completely secluded – you will not see another building – only the rocks, ocean, birds, seals and surf. Our guests tell us they love the feel of the house – its unique privacy, spectacular view, complete kitchen, telescope, hot tub, and first class housekeeping.
Wonderful for your romantic retreat, the Gullhouse offers the serenity of private intimacy in beautiful surroundings. Tucked away at the end of the road and atop a bluff there are dramatic ocean views from inside and out.
A comment from our guests:
"At 33 years of marriage, living overseas doing a lot of traveling, not many places can top this. Hot tub was great. This whole experience was even more than we expected and we are hard to please." Curt & Mary Jo, Ashland, Oregon
Located just cross the street from the Seal Rocks you are a short walk from the beach where the tide pools, during low tide are magnificent. The sea life is so abundant in this area that the biologists from the Hatfield Marine Science Center come here to collect their specimens. The seals love to sun themselves here on the rocks; binoculars and a spotting scope are available for your convenience.

It was awesome not having to leave the house to watch the ocean; what a priceless view! We too enjoyed the hot tub, playing games and watching movies. The house is very comfortable and had everything we needed. We loved the Yaquina Lighthouse and saw lots of seals there. We even took a little swim in the ocean!

We really enjoyed the house, the hot tub and the view! Your movie selection is awesome. We had fun going to Old Town Newport and the museums and hanging out in the hot tub looking at the moon and the stars. We cooked up some yummy stuffed mushrooms, crab cream cheese puffs and steamer clams. Great weekend for movie watching and hanging out with friends. So glad we came down here. This was an awesome 29th birthday. Hope to come back again. Also wish we had a king sized bed at home. The robes are a welcoming touch.

We rented the Gullhouse through Airbnb.com and had a WONDERFUL time! The house was so cozy, the view OUTSTANDING, and the hot tub HOT! We went climbing on rocks, explored tide pools, and even rented wet-suits since the water was still warm! The house was equipped with everything you could need. LOVED the bathrobes!

We had a delightful visit, even though the weather didn't cooperate. Even on cold, rainy nights, the view was stunning. We couldn't have asked for a more relaxing, intimate place to celebrate our anniversary. We're already looking forward to our next visit.

Awesome. Just Awesome. My sister and I have had the best weekend. Gullhouse has everything you could need! The view is beyond words as is hearing the surf hit the beach. Going down to the beach at low tide is a must to see the tide pools! The hot tub at sunset -- BLISS! Staying here is good medicine.

We've very much enjoyed our few days here, watching the waves, sunsets and (last night) seals. Our favorite day was going to Yachats and the Little Log Church (there's a beautiful Victorian crazy patchwork quilt there), then on to Cape Perpetua with it's views, Devil's Churn and blow hole. Lots of photos. Now we're off inland to see what Oregon has to offer along the Cascade Mountains.

The beach brought our "pirate souls" to life - the hot tub at sunset was our Margaritaville - sleeping with the seagulls and the feel of salt air was amazing! Footnote: S family's official "Lighthouse Count" including the books in the Gullhouse was 171 - recount may be necessary - we were wine tasting and counting at the same time. "The Stars are Like Christmas" The Quietness is like Heaven." Olen and I (the parents) also got to enjoy your very comfy home and the spectacular view of the ocean and listening to the waves in the quiet of the night. I loved the comfortable bed, down pillow and comforter. The Driftwood King enjoyed his stay - and is now leaving the building. He leaves you a sea cairn he personally makes - hang and enjoy the beauty of his humble/peaceful people. Treat my people well -they bring good luck!
