Crosby House B&B

Second visit to the Crosby House for the Festival of the Dark Arts Beer Festival so we got together with 2 other couples and rented the whole place. This was the best idea ever, no awkward breakfast convos with strangers, we got to pick our own time for breakfast, we had the whole balcony to ourselves, and the house felt so comfortable. The owners here are amazingly kind and have created an atmosphere that is historic, completely in keeping with the age of the house, and welcoming. Breakfasts are superb and they accomdate food alergies extremely well. Plenty of games and some movies in case you want to just relax in the living room. A wonderful coffee and tea station upstairs including fresh baked treats. This is our go-​to lodging for all of our Astoria getaways.

Beautiful old house and Theresa is a gracious host! The pictures really don’t do it justice. Breakfast was delicious and there is a patio for all to access (and one room has a «private» balcony that is adjoined to the other space) that overlooks the river. I could hear the sea lions barking while enjoying a morning tea. There is a coffee bar upstairs with all sorts of tea and coffee that you can access at any time, along with a communal mini fridge for storing wine and leftovers. Oh, and cookies in the afternoon!
We stayed in the Tongue Point room and it was the perfect size for two with a spacious bathroom. Had a chance to peek in the other rooms and we would have been happy to stay in any of them. Plated breakfast is at 830 and served «family style» (I.e., you’re all sitting at the same table), but no forced interactions. With all that the Oregon Coast has to offer, Astoria isn’t necessarily a place I’d return — but if I did, I’d stay at the Crosby House.
Tips: Two bottles of water were waiting for us in our room (the first night only). There was a bottle of shower gel, but no shampoo, conditioner or lotion. Bring your own!

We spent a simply wonderful weekend at the Crosby House. This lovingly restored Victorian home is the perfect combination of historical charm and modern amenities. The Innkeepers are exceptionally friendly & accommodating, the rooms clean and comfortable, and the breakfast is top notch.
We stayed in the Waterfront Room which faces the Columbia River and has a private deck. We loved being able to watch all the hustle and bustle of the docks while relaxing in our pj’s with our morning coffee.
The Inn is centrally located and within walking distance of the Riverfront Trolley, Brewpubs, restaurants and lots of funky little shops.
One word of warning though, the River traffic can be a bit noisy and it runs ²⁴⁄₇. Our first night a thick bank of fog moved in which resulted in us being serenaded off and on by the fog horns of the Tanker ships as they went up river. We thought the experience was pretty funny but make no mistake… it can be loud! If you are a light sleeper you might think about opting for one of the other rooms. No doubt they are quieter.
