Overview

Originally built in 1892 (the very first home in Gearhart), this Gearhart vacation rental has been lovingly maintained and makes a wonderfully unique vacation getaway.

Perched on a full acre of grassy meadow ringed by old-growth pines, the home sits just three blocks from the beautiful sandy beach and only four from the shops and cafes of charming Gearhart.

The Latourette House has 2,500 square feet of unique living space. The sun-drenched living room has ample windows, and is the ideal spot to settle in with a good book for a quiet afternoon, or break out one of the provided board games for a little healthy competition. There is even a day bed that can be used at night by a guest.

At mealtimes, you'll find the kitchen is equipped with all the modern conveniences of home, including a dishwasher, oven with stovetop, refrigerator, microwave, and coffeemaker. Adjacent to the kitchen, the formal dining room with antique light fixtures and a gorgeous hutch awaits your home-cooked breakfasts and leisurely dinners.

A door from the kitchen leads out to the patio, with a charcoal grill for summer barbecues. Outdoor seating nooks are scattered across the wraparound deck and throughout the grassy yard, and if you watch closely, you might spot a deer or elk wandering past!

With four bedrooms, three full baths, and a unique summer sleeping porch with netting instead of glass windows, this home has plenty of room for eight guests. The largest bedroom offers a queen bed and a cable TV with DVD player, along with a private door leading out to the wrap-around deck.

The second bedroom has a double bed, a third room has a twin bed, and the fourth bedroom offers two twins with another TV set. There are three full bathrooms, one with a beautiful soaking tub and two with walk-in showers.

The upstairs summer sleeping porch, enclosed by netting rather than glass windows, is a one-of-a-kind spot that our younger guests will love! Over the years, it has become a makeshift art gallery or family journal with names and memories from the past of when the owners were kids and growing up in the home. You are welcome to view the make-shift journal, but please do not add anything to it. Please note that while the beds are comfy and the linens warm, the space does not have heat—it is wonderful for summertime sleeping in the fresh air, but not suitable for colder weather.

The home even offers wireless Internet access and a washer/dryer, so it's wonderful for a working getaway or long-term stay. Dogs are welcome with an additional nightly fee, and please inquire for special arrangements to accommodate a wedding or large reunion!

This one-of-a-kind Northern Oregon Coast vacation home has welcomed families to beautiful Gearhart for decades! Will yours be next?

We spent a week at this lovely historic beach home. We appreciate its old fashioned charm and coziness. Updated kitchen. Quiet. Easy walks to beach and coffee. Bike rides around town. Large property allows for lots of privacy. We loved it! We brought two dogs. Very pet friendly house. We hope to return soon.

Avari response:

It’s wonderful to hear that you enjoyed your week at our historic beach home, Amy! The charm and coziness of the Latourette House really do create a unique atmosphere, and we’re glad you appreciated it. It sounds like you made the most of the peaceful surroundings with your walks to the beach and coffee, as well as bike rides around Gearhart.

We’re also thrilled that your dogs felt right at home too! The spacious property is perfect for pets to roam and enjoy. We would love to welcome you back for another stay soon, perhaps to explore even more of the area.

Our family of eight had a great time at the house. It was comfortable and the location is perfect. We walked about a 1/4 mile to the beach which is an amazing beach to experience. You’re only about 2 miles from Seaside if you want more things to see and do.

We 5 ladies had a great time there and all slept soundly, enjoyed the house and yard and location!

The location and house was great! Loved the historical home, lots of bedrooms for the 5 of us and close to the beach.

Could have been cleaner. The shower curtain on the main floor needs changing and a good cleaning of cobwebs overall. It would have been nice to know that other folks park in your driveway to access another smaller house nearby.

Avari response:

Thank you, Susan, for sharing your experience with us. We’re thrilled to hear that you and your friends enjoyed the charm of our historical home and found the location so convenient for your beach getaway. It’s wonderful to know that everyone slept soundly and made the most of the space.

We genuinely appreciate your feedback regarding the cleanliness and the shower curtain. That’s not the standard we aim for, and we’re committed to addressing these issues to ensure a more comfortable stay for future guests. We also understand how important it is to have clear communication about parking, and we’ll work on making that information more accessible.

We hope to welcome you back for another memorable stay, where we can provide an even better experience. Thank you again for your insights!

We enjoyed our stay in this historic home. The hosts were good communicators and very responsive. The description of the property is pretty accurate. There is no barbecue/grill. The one there is corroded and rusted. We brought our own large screen TV and equipment in order to watch cable news, YouTube, movies, etc. Thank you for a lovely weekend.
