Comfortable Modern Gearhart Retreat - Family Friendly, super location, updated
Come escape to our Gearhart Retreat - one level, updated throughout, great for couples, families, friends. This comfortable beach house getaway is conveniently located two blocks from the beach trail head and nearby the center of town including a bakery, market, coffee, wine, and more. McMenamins and Gearhart Golf Links is a short distance north. Enjoy a bike ride around down, play tennis, basketball or pickleball at the courts in town. Bring your gear for fishing, clamming, or crabbing. The walks are peaceful around this delightful, sleepy town of Gearhart. It's just a short drive to explore Astoria, Seaside, Cannon Beach, where you can enjoy a more bustling experience with many shops, activities such as arcade and bumper cars, outlet mall, breweries and other great eats, historical sites, and more
The house is nicely laid out with three bedrooms and two bathrooms as follows:
* King bed with ensuite bathroom
* Double bed
* Two twin beds
The hall bathroom provides a bathtub, while the master bathroom provides a good size, curbless shower.
The main area has a great room concept with the living room, dining area, and kitchen all in one. The living room provides a quiet area with a second television, gas fireplace, books, and view out the front of the house. The family room is spacious for all guests to be seated comfortably to enjoy a show, movie, or board games. The kitchen is well stocked with pots, pans, utensils, dishes, drip coffee pot, toaster, microwave, waffle maker, rice cooker and NEW stainless steel appliances. There is a second refrigerator in the garage.. Please inquire about special needs for your stay.
The large, sprawling, unfenced, professionally landscaped yard is a wonderful multipurpose area. The level grassy area can be used for recreational activities. The patio provides an outdoor table and grill with adirondack chairs. The view alone is serene and enjoyable.
The house is pet friendly (with a pet fee and owner approval). We ask that pets not be left unattended unless in a crate/kennel and are not allowed on the furniture. Bring your own recreational equipment and feel free to use the garage as storage.
The house is accessed with a keyless entry. Wi-Fi is provided. Two televisions (with an Alexa fire cube and a Roku) and an Alexa speaker are available. It is all set up to stream your personal streaming services such as Netflix, Apple TV, YouTube TV, Hulu, etc. There is a DVD player for movies.
We look forward to hosting you in Gearhart, a wonderful Oregon coast gem, where great memories are made. Gearhart has been a very special place for us since we acquired this house in 2005. We would love to welcome you into our house to enjoy as your own.

We are excited to share our new, modern space with you - updated throughout. The Gearhart Retreat provides a comfortable great room set up with updated decor and furnishings.

Come relax in the cozy living room with a new gas fireplace, additional TV with Roku, and a wall of books to share. The family room is spacious with a large screen television (fire cube and YouTube TV provided) and seats all comfortably. All bedrooms have new mattresses with a layout as follows:

- Bedroom with full bed
- Bedroom with two twin beds
The large yard provides a multi purpose play area with a tasteful surrounding garden. The patio hosts a table, chairs, and a grill. The large grassy area is great for games and a play area for kids. The two car garage is useful for storing bikes and other gear. There is ample room to park three cars in the driveway.
We take great pride in our house and continue to add personal touches to make your stay more enjoyable.

About the host
Hosted by Tara Fullerton
Hello! My husband and I are both native Oregonians and have enjoyed the Oregon coast all our lives. We reside in Portland and took on this Gearhart project in 2004. We take great pride in the countess hours of turning this aluminum siding, dated house into the modern, warm house it is today. Two years after acquiring this house, we hosted our nuptials in the backyard in 2006! We now have three young spirited boys and a very busy lifestyle. When we find time, we love to escape to Gearhart for relaxation. We love to relax in the comfort of our house as well as enjoy the outdoor activities such as hiking, clamming, golfing, biking, and endless walks with the most scenic sunsets and wildlife sightins. We are so grateful for Gearhart!
Why they chose this property
What a strike of luck to discover Gearhart! We love the charm of Gearhart. It's an easy drive from Portland (our home) and is conveniently located to all the beautiful north coast towns of Seaside, Astoria, Cannon Beach, Manzanita, and more. We enjoy the quietness and family friendly environment with outdoor activities. The beach is serene and peaceful, beautifully set back from the houses by the dunes. The community is friendly and warm. Whether is breathtaking walks, runs, biking, yard work, or enjoying some downtime inside near the fireplace during a good storm, great memories are made here!
What makes this property unique
Location! This one level house is centrally located to town. We love walking for coffee, yummy pastries, wine, and dining out. There are lots of activities nearby such as golf, tennis, pickle ball, basketball, clamming, and more. Once in awhile, you catch a glimpse of wildlife (elk, bald eagles) around the area. The peaceful beach is a short couple blocks away. It’s one of the most picturesque beaches on the Oregon coast!
