Would’ve Been a Great Stay… Until the Injury

Drifthaven is undeniably charming: beautifully designed, cozy, and nestled in a peaceful part of Gearhart. I really wanted to love this place. Unfortunately, my stay ended with a serious injury due to a safety issue in the room that I feel compelled to share. On the last morning of my stay, around 4am, I went downstairs to use the restroom. The stairs inside the room are not lit, and the banister ends on the second-to-last step, which makes it deceptive to navigate in low light. Because of the banister situation, I missed the final step, tripped, and fell hard, so badly that I could barely walk and had to go to Urgent Care that morning. My spouse had to drive out from Portland and pick me up, and I had to cut my trip short and cancel a work conference commitment due to the injury. I informed staff immediately, and they said they’d notify the manager and follow up. I never heard back. I also submitted feedback via email the day after I left, still nothing. Between the medical bills, the disruption to my work, and the lack of response, I’m really disappointed. I’m sharing this in hopes that management will take this seriously. Installing small lights along the stairs would be a simple fix that could prevent future accidents. I expected more attentiveness from a place that clearly puts so much care into its aesthetic and I am disappointed. I would love to stay here again, but would like the safety lights installed and for the customer service to improve first.

Extremely overpriced!

Extremely tiny room with micro furniture. Recently remodeled. Bed was very low and extremely soft. The pilot on the gas stove in the room wouldn’t turn off and the interior temp was 79 degrees with all of the windows open. Extremely overpriced at more than $2/sqrt ft per night. Worst value ever!

We recently stayed here for a few nights with our grandchildren. We stayed in Cottage 11. We loved having access to the garage full of beach toys, chairs, BBQ, picnic tables and fire pits for s’mores! We enjoyed a delicious welcome cocktail after arrival. So thoughtful. What put this place over the top for us was the beautiful breakfast basket delivered to our door every morning. This will definitely be our forever stay when in Gearhart. Thank you!

Disliked: Amenities
The decor and overall concept are really cute, and the space felt cozy, which I appreciated. That said, there’s definitely room for improvement. The unit we stayed in had an unpleasant odor, the shower pressure was weak, and the bathroom was a bit cramped—with some visible mold on the shower curtain, which wasn’t ideal. The mattress wasn’t firm enough for me, and the ceiling fan didn’t work, which made it hard to get proper air circulation. With a few updates, this could be a much more comfortable stay.
