What a wonderful, beautiful place!  We love the accommodations and you have thought of everything we could possibly need.

This is the first time our combined family has rented “a house at the beach”…What an awesome place to start!  You thought of everything… (Wish I would have asked ahead of time about toddler/baby equipment…could have left half our load at home!)

We had 4 generations here, from 6 months to 81 years and everyone enjoyed their time away from “the world outside”!  I’ll see what is open this summer and we’ll be back soon!

Thank You for letting us stay at your Mansion!

We had a wonderful time in your beautiful beach home.  Our children 5,3 & 10 months enjoyed the playroom, dollhouse, & Wii.  Our family came together for a relaxing vacation, 9 adults & 5 children and we really did get to relax!  Thanks again- What a charming house.

Family Reunion.  For us vacation means “the beach”-and so we keep coming to reconnect with our ancestors-our “Family Ghosts”.

Cecilia + Pat bought “Rose Cottage” in Long Beach in 1905 or so.  They brought their kids Theresa & Will.  Theresa married Oliver Breeze, and had Herman.  Herman married Helen and brought their daughter Helenmarie.  Helenmarie  and husband, Jack Clynch introduced their kids-Cecelia, Fae, Molly, John & Claudia.  They’ve came and brought significant others and children (5 of them).  We have had good lodgings thru the years.  But Bloomer House is the best!! 

This time there were 14 of us- ages 76 thru 4-and all of us found something special to enjoy here.  We’ll be back!

Thanks to all who make this beautiful experience available!

Sincerely 3 generations!

Had a ball!!  Sixteenth  Annual “ Girls Weekend”.  The kitchen is better equipped than most of our personal homes! 

Ten long time friends found the space to gather together and to have solitary moments and peace.

We have treasured our time here and will leave with fabulous memories of our gatherings at the Bloomer Mansion and of Long Beach Peninsula.  Residing from Camino Islands, Redmond, Paulsbo, Beaverton, Columbia City, Lake Oswego, and Eugene OR.  We take the memories of another time of rejuvenation, love, sorrow, laughter, hope, joys especially of sisterhood!

We love all the time together every year, from our various locations and walks of life.

This has been a challenging time for some of us and being together in this wonderful space has been perfect!  Thank You!!

Had a terrific time here celebrating Birthday Party of Norine (90th) Larry (60th)Nicole (30th) and baby Nolan (1year).

The treasure of it all was that its being together and “well”-we had Stu with Nicole from The Yukon-baby Jeremy and Christina from Calgary-Laurette and Jerry from Port Townsend.  Thelma from Calgary Larry and Joyce from Victoria BC and myself from Victoria (Norine)-We planned to be tighter in 4 cars- that was all we needed.

Thank you so much,

We had such a wonderful time during our stay here.  We always come down to Long Beach for the Annual Rod Run weekend and it is always difficult to find a house big enough to sleep all of us comfortably.  But you did it!!

We loved all the touches, and thoughts as to what we as guests could possibly need.  I think we found and used each and every one of them.

While walking through the house during our annual Chili feed up to 20, the entire house was beaming with laughter and memories.  I ‘m sure we weren’t the only ones that have shared a similar experience with their loved ones.

Thank you so so much for opening this beautiful house up to families to share the great heritage and all of the antiques.  It was great to take a step back in time.

Thank you, Thank you, Thank you!

The Hutchinson-Dougla-Macuk-Conlin Clan gathered once again for a week of beach walks, bike rides, watching movies, fabulous meals, and visits to the Humane Society.  It’s been a wonderful week in this very special house!  We have celebrated birthdays, an anniversary, and several other milestone transitions within the family.  The house has provided an extraordinarily warm & comfortable environment for all of us and we are grateful for it!

The addition of Rock Band was an addictive hit with the kids- I hope the backdrop of thumping bass for numerous hours wasn’t too disruptive! 

Thank you again for the cookies on arrival-the perfect start to a perfect week!  See you again next year!

We had a super time-thanks!  Everything in the house was great from the welcoming chocolate chip cookies to the game room to the hot tub.  The house is absolutely beautiful & we enjoyed our time here.

Seaview/Long Beach Washington has tons to do.  We took walks on the beach, walked the boardwalk, rode horses on the beach, visited lighthouses.  Took in all the shops.  Thanks so much for your hospitality!

Boardman Reunion:

Really enjoyed ourselves.  Had massive fires in the pit and cooked smores and hot dogs.  Play big game of washers and waffles ball tourney in the yard.  Long Beach, WA surprised us all in how fun it can be.  Not much you did not think of for amenities.  Maybe better flashlights, but that’s about it.   Great memories here.  Thank You!!

We loved our vacation, this house is amazing.  It gave us the chance to have our family all together and to spend the 4th of July with them.  This was the fourth house in Long Beach we’ve stayed at and by far the most amazing one.  We will be back sometime and hope to stay again.  Thank you for the warm plate of cookies they were great.   Thanks for the memories.

This was a gift for my children and grandchildren and this was the most amazing vacation to date.  The cookies were a welcoming treat.  We totally filled our days with visiting the lighthouses, swimming, kite flying and some of us actually learned to surf.  Made short trip to Astoria to the sea lions, Maritime Museum and got a special treat seeing the Coast Guard doing training recovering a dummy from a helicopter.  What a special place with a million great memories.

What a wonderful time we had celebrating my 50th birthday!  This beautiful Mansion is such a great place for a large group.  A mom, sisters, niece and a new baby on the way.  Time goes by way too quickly-if we could only figure out a way to slow it down.  We’ll definitely get together here again!

Andrew loves the caterpillar he found and wants to see it turn into a butterfly.  He is 6.  Connar loved staying here and doesn’t want to go home.  It’s a Huge House!  He is 9.  Annike loved the dollhouse and the toy closet!  She is 2 ½.  Amy, Dan, Josh and Leith all came to visit.  They live in Naselle.  Grandma Lois loved being with all the kids and wiggling her toes in the sand on the beach.  We flew kites and everyone saw a bald Eagle.

Kelda kept us all well fed and busy!  It was a great time! 

Doug and Jeanie came for dinner from Warrington.  Jeanie could really play the wonderful old piano.

Lots of fun, a great spring break.  Thank you!!  Thank you!!   Loved the cookies J

We also told stories until late into the night, visited Grampa Ray, got up early every morning and had a family walk ( Rae Ann, Mom, Tim, Robbie, Benjamin, & Nolan ) on the boardwalk.

The Barts, the Hughes, the Spences and their visiting families enjoyed the warmth, quaintness, of the house.  The walks through the pines to the beach.  The trips in the drizzles to Sids Market.  The birds, the dogs, mushrooms, berries,  and secret tracks of bears.

We celebrated a special birthday. We had a WONDERFUL time. We were especially impressed with the amount of entertaining games/toys for babies: card, Apples to Apples, etc!) This house was great.

Thank you for ordering Snow!!! Our 3 year old said “It just HAS to snow it just HAS to!! And it did—You thought of everything.

Thank you for being key in bringing our family together.
