Quiet beach community with multiple waterfronts
Surf Pines is an oceanfront neighborhood between the more active communities of Seaside and Warrenton. “It’s a very quiet neighborhood,” says Tim Regan, the managing principal broker of Windermere Realty Trust, who was previously a resident. “You don’t know if it’s Labor Day weekend or a Tuesday in February.” With Sunset Lake nestled on its east side, Surf Pines offers plenty of water recreation. Properties on the lake side of the neighborhood often come with private docks, while those on the oceanfront side have backyard trails that lead to the sandy Sunset Beach.
Surf Pines offers residents miles of open seashore to explore and enjoy.

Clamming on Sunset Beach, fishing in Sunset Lake
Sunset Beach State Recreation Site stretches across 120 acres of the Pacific coast, with vantage points of Cape Disappointment in the north and Ecola State Park in the south. Hikers can catch a glimpse of bald eagles perched on wooden posts, and seals sometimes make their way to shore. The shoreline—as well as the larger surrounding Clatsop County—is known for clamming, though locals can also experience the beach by car. “It’s wide and sandy,” Regan says. “It’s one of the few [beaches] left in Oregon you can drive on.”
Sunset Beach is also the destination of the Fort-to-Sea Trail. Starting in Fort Clatsop to the east, the 6.5-mile trail cuts across the neighborhood to reach the ocean, recreating the path Lewis and Clark would’ve taken in the winter between 1805 and 1806. Half a mile inland, Sunset Lake provides more waterfront recreation. The nearby Sunset Lake Campground and RV Park has firepits, picnic tables and a general store. A wooden dock overlooks a layer of lily pads, while anglers can fish for bass, trout and catfish.
With several lakes in the area of Surf Pines, fishing will become second nature.

Beachfront homes part of Surf Pines Homeowners Association
Homes in Surf Pines line the offshoots of Manion Road, while beachfront estates enjoy views of the vast Pacific on Ocean Road. Ranch-style homes—seemingly built during the 1970s in waves, and also between the 1990s and early 2000s or after 2020—can cost between $500,000 and $700,000. Sprawling single-level homes and larger, two-story houses built after the 1970s can fetch between $900,000 and $1.8 million. Houses on the coast come with trails that lead straight to the water, and many feature weathered shingles that add to the beachy look of Surf Pines.
Most residents belong to the Surf Pines Homeowners Association, though it mainly enforces safety measures, like the neighborhood's 25-mile-per-hour speed limits. “It’s not about what you can build or not build. There are no design standards,” Regan says. “It’s about maintaining the roads and the safety officer who lives at the south gate.”

Protective public school locations mitigate flood damage
Children in Seaside can begin their K-12 journey at Pacific Ridge Elementary School, which was established in 2020 and is yet to be scored by Niche. Seaside Middle School earns a 2 out of 10 from GreatSchools, while Seaside High School earns a B-minus from Niche. High schoolers can choose between a variety of electives, like calligraphy, graphic design, criminal justice, culinary arts and a food truck specialty course, in addition to extracurricular clubs for community service, creative writing and robotics.
Because the coastal area is at an increased risk of potential ocean flooding, all three schools are located on the east side of a hill that protects students from high tides.
