The Newhart Building helps solve a common challenge for retreat planners: finding accommodations that provide both privacy and shared gathering space.

- Large living room with fireplace
- Media room

The layout encourages the type of spontaneous conversation and relationship-building that traditional conference hotels often struggle to support.Additional Group Lodging Options

Beyond the Meeting Agenda
One of the reasons Seabrook works so well for retreats is that the experience extends naturally beyond the meeting room, with walkable restaurants, gathering spaces, and coastal activities woven throughout town.
Teams can incorporate:

- Surfing
- Tennis, pickleball, and basketball
- Spa experiences
- Team dinners and receptions

With nearly 400 acres of preserved coastal forest connected to public land, plus direct beach access and more than 30 parks throughout town, there are countless ways for teams to reset, recharge, and reconnect.
A Corporate Retreat Close to Seattle, Yet Entirely Different
For Pacific Northwest companies, accessibility matters.
Seabrook is close enough to Seattle to make travel practical while still creating enough separation from the office to feel meaningful. That combination is increasingly important for organizations looking to maximize the value of in-person gatherings.
Teams arrive without the complexity of major destination travel, and once they are here, the environment feels entirely removed from the hectic pace and distractions of daily work life.
That shift in perspective is often where the best ideas happen.
