Gearhart is a Gem!

Gearhart is a Gem of a Cottage Town located directly west of Portland on the Amazing Oregon Coast. This quiet town is perfect for a Beach Day trip! Directly across from Gearhart Golf Links (The Oldest Golf Course in the NW) is the Beach access road where you can drive your Family, Beach gear & Picnic lunch right onto the Beach for a Fun Day in the Sand! When you are getting hungry you can either drive back into Gearhart to eat The McMenamins Sand Trap (Overlooking the Golf Course) or Pacific Way Cafe.... Or if you are really in for an Adventure you can drive North on the Beach all the way to Astoria!!!
