OUR STORY

An Enduring Legacy

History and Legacy

Before Ocean Crest Restaurant even became a dream, owner Barbara Curtright served her famous clam chowder to resort guests from a Japanese hibachi near the fire pit in front of the three original cabins. Evening bonfires featuring roasted marshmallows were a normal summer occurrence.

On The Coast

In 1963, an ocean view dining room was added to the property. Later, a "Gourmet Gold Room" served flaming entrees. The Restaurant and Lounge burned to the ground after a massive three-day fire in 2011, but returned to the coast in 2014. Ocean Crest Restaurant underwent a massive restoration and renovation that brought back the same loving owners, delicious cuisine, and attentive staff you'll find here today.

Our History

Although several hotels made their mark as tourists began to flock to this picturesque coastal town, the Ocean Crest Resort stood apart from other restaurants in Moclips, WA, thanks to owner Barbara Curtright's warm dedication and famous clam chowder.
