a haven for those allured by calm

Gearhart is a lovely, quiet town built alongside the ocean, located just three miles north of the resort town of Seaside. The open, grassy fields on Gearhart’s shore side overlook the Pacific.

Tucked amidst the dunes along the coast, Gearhart has small town charm and hospitality. It has no traffic lights, wide streets for riding bicycles, public tennis courts, and a gorgeous, unspoiled beach. The center of town is charming, with shops, restaurants, an art gallery, a grocer, and lodging in a renovated boutique inn. The Gearhart Golf Links is the oldest golf course in the Pacific Northwest, and lies just minutes from the water.
