Take a break at this lovely, dog-friendly beach house in Gearhart, OR! With a peek-a-boo bay view and easy access to a serene stretch of sand, the whole family will have a memorable time here.

Located at the south end of Gearhart, you'll enjoy the quiet neighborhood and a short walk to the beach, as well as a short drive down to Seaside for plenty more activities.

This house has a classic and rustic feel with a touch of beach flair that will make you comfortable right away.

Enter the great space of the open living, dining room, and kitchen with wood floors, vaulted ceilings, and abundant natural light. Grab a seat on the colorful sectional and get warm in front of the fire in the stone hearth while you watch a DVD on the flatscreen cable TV with all the kids. There are two large window seats that offer a great view of the estuary, and are perfect for curling up with a book from the shelf.

The dining table under the rustic chandelier has seating for eight, with two stools nearby at the kitchen counter. Enjoy a family meal together or bust out the board games from the closet for an old-fashioned game night!

The kitchen has full, updated amenities that make cooking anything possible, and there is plenty of counterspace for appetizers while you cook. A dishwasher even makes clean-up stress-free.

Three bedrooms and two and a half baths make this house suitable for up to six. Downstairs you'll find a room with a queen bed, TV, and access to the outdoor patio. There's a full bath with a tub/shower combo across the hall. A second bedroom down the hall is great for kids - with a twin bunk bed, and two separate twin beds (four total), as well as an attached nook with a double futon and a sliding glass door for access outside.

Upstairs you'll find the master bedroom with a queen bed, an armchair for lounging, a full private bath with dual sinks and standalone shower, and access to a balcony.

There is a laundry room with washer/dryer, and WiFi is provided for your convenience. The fenced-in backyard is spacious - great for your dog if you choose to bring one, though be sure to keep an eye on him or tie up for extra precaution (please note the 40-pound weight limit and a small nightly fee). You'll also enjoy a deck, a charcoal grill for barbecuing, and an outdoor firepit for roasting s'mores and enjoying quiet nights.

This house is perfect for a retreat or a large family - walk a block and a half to the beach, where you can build sandcastles, fly kites, comb for seashells, or surf if you're feeling ambitious. Walk to the south end of the beach for a picturesque view at Cockcroft Sanddollar Point, and bring the beach chairs to wait for the sun to set into the calming waters of the Pacific.

Half a mile north from the house is Gearhart Golf Links, where you can play a full round of 18 holes with stunning views of the nearby coastal mountains. Enjoy a coffee and pastry at Pacific Way Bakery and Café, or head less than a mile south along Highway 101 for more options in Seaside.

Along Broadway Street in Seaside you'll find a wide selection of cafés and eateries, and plenty more entertainment, including an arcade, carousel, fun shops, mini-golf, and amusement rides. Walk along the waterfront to find the Seaside Aquarium to learn about the local marine life and even feed the seals!
