Walk to the Beach & Coastal Comfort in Gearhart

Steal away to the North Coast & book your stay at this charming vintage 1914 Gearhart beach home! With 4 bedrooms, 2 baths, a well appointed kitchen and all the amenities you've come to expect, you will feel right at home at ‘Tarry by the Sea.’ Whether it's for vacation or an extended stay, remote work or school is a breeze with 300mb+ per sec wifi. Located mere blocks to the idyllic historic downtown, with walking paths & beach access nearby, your trip will be sure to be memorable!

Comfortably sleeping 8, this vintage home has the quaint beachy feel of New England & Cape Cod with all of the modern updates you’ve come to expect to have on a cozy getaway!

The main floor features a generous living room with plenty of space for movie nights or conversation long into the night around the gas fireplace. The original warm fir wood beams and paneling flow from the living space to the roomy dining room with its original vintage light fixture & pie keep. With seating for 8, plus space in the corner for the puzzle table & light, there is plenty of room for meals, puzzles & card games throughout your stay.

In the summertime, living space expands from the living room out to the remodeled-now-enclosed porch! With a long rattan couch ideal for summer afternoon naps, this space is a favorite among our summer season guests. A quiet space to curl up with a good book or enchanting evenings with the string lights lit, this is a spot for rest and relaxation. Out this french door provides direct access to the firepit and Adirondack chairs on the west side of the house. (Smores sticks are in the kitchen silverware drawer!) Don't forget morning coffee on the front porch. The sun comes right up and the house blocks the wind, it's a perfect perch!

Back inside, the chef in your group will appreciate the very well-stocked kitchen. From the kitchen aid & Cuisinart food processors to the 8-quart instant pot, you’ll have everything you need to prepare large meals. With its slab granite countertops & quaint open shelving, the fully equipped kitchen comes complete with all new appliances: gas stove, dishwasher, microwave, and refrigerator. Crate & Barrel dishware, copious amounts of coffee mugs, French press, tea kettle etc., this kitchen is ready for you. Continue through the kitchen to the mud room, perfect for ushering little feet indoors fresh from the beach. Use the water hose outside first to hose off, then swimsuits and your beach towels popped into the washer and littles into the main floor full bathroom with its bathtub/shower combo.

Upstairs, four charming bedrooms with high thread count sheets, duvet covers, down comforters, warm throw blankets and piles of pillows await! The primary bedroom has additional comfy chairs & TV #2. Ideal for those who want to watch something different than the downstairs crew or who just want to get away for a little rest. Bedroom 2 is also a queen bed with an overstuffed chair perfect for reading or a nap! Bedroom #3 in the back left is a queen bed and bedroom #4 has two twin beds with non-down comforters. Each bedroom has additional blankets for layering and free-standing fans. Open the windows at night to hear the ocean! The 2nd bathroom is on this floor and features an expansive step-in shower, soft white fluffy towels, drawers and shelves for toiletries storage.

Other amenities include a washer/dryer, iron, in-room fans, two flat-screen TVs and Blue Ray/DVD player, internet access, games and puzzles galore.

Gearhart Charmer!

Classic older Gearhart Cottage. Location and outside property were perfect. The home had comfortable beds and was well equipped. Only issue is that it’s an older structure with very little sound insulation, but that is part of the delightful charm of a Gearhart Cottage!

About the host

Hosted by Claire & Mark

Host profile image
We live in Portland and have always vacationed along the Oregon Coast. Whether it was in an RV hitting up all the antique stores, or us kids loading up on old books and reading all the way along hwy 101, the beach has very special memories. I (Claire) have been coming to Gearhart for beach get-aways with friends for years. I never knew we would find this neglected vintage home and have the opportunity for my Dad and I to restore it!

Why they chose this property

Gearhart has been the destination of choice for years and years. Whether for a week long stay or just a cup of coffee and a quick walk before returning to Portland, this has always been a very special place.

We wanted a place where we could be within two blocks of the cafe and quick access to the beach.

When we saw the beautiful dark wood, exposed beams and all of the charm we knew we were done for. Restoring this wonderful 100 year-old vintage home has been a labor of love and we are thrilled with the beautiful result. Oh how we hope you adore it and return year after year!

Tarry was pretty much abandoned with just a few summer visitors each year. So when we purchased her in 2013--we had our hands full just getting everything up to speed. Gutting the kitchen to the studs, installing insulation & new 2' blinds to go with the brand-new windows throughout were just a few of the big projects. This year, we rest. In 2015 the front porch gets a complete overhaul and then the exterior will get it's new paint job--beautiful coastal gray, white trim and dashing red on a new front door.

What makes this property unique

I've always dreamed of a place where family and friends gather, create new memories, rest and get away from the crazy pace of life.

The new windows let the light pour in, the wonderful bedrooms make a bookworm want to read all day, the gleaming original fir floors all reflect it's 100-year old charm.

Enjoy the encased summer porch, the two huge yards, the fire-pit and the perfect proximity to golf courses, McMenamin's pub, the cafe & restaurant. Walk on the beach or further down, drive on the shore. Hunt for whole sand dollars and dream, rest, read, puzzle and connect in this very special home.

Situated on 1/3 of an acre, there is plenty of room for football and the outdoor fire-pit is the piece de resistance after a day at the coast.
