Cute, comfortable and Well Appointed
Super cute cottages that were very well appointed. Comfortable bed, a thermostat driven gas fireplace for heat and a retro feel made this feel special. We were greeted by the host with a hot buttered rum and the next morning breakfast baskets were brought to the room. Highly recommend! It was too cold for us to enjoy the garden space but there were picnic tables, and enclosed bubble sitting area and lounge chairs. Just 30 mins from Astoria; we're so glad we found this little gem of a place.

Absolutely beautiful hotel with all details carefully considered--from the french press coffee with great mugs to drink from, to the breakfast baskets delivered in the morning, to the cute garden area for gathering. It was a joy staying here and the owners and staff are incredibly friendly, helpful and kind. Will stay here again for sure!

We were welcomed warmly and treated like real guests.
It was charming and quiet and the area around there was safe, walkable and very pleasant. It was a perfect walk to the beach. They have so many special amenities as well.
Can't wait to return.

Updates since our last stay there.
The first room (#3) felt small due to size of bed. Could hear the family next door so requested to be moved, which they were able to do. Beds and seating in both were not that comfortable (low to the ground, didn’t support our backs).
Kitchen no longer has oven. French press and water pot for coffee. Fridge pretty full of items they were selling so left little room for the items we bought for meals. Breakfast is continental only. Welcome drink was delicious,,

I love staying at the Drifthaven. They really sweat the details that make every stay special. Each room is more like sisters than twins in that they have different art and little touches that make them unique and homey. It must be said that their garden area is also so cute with a variety of seating options when the weather cooperates.
