Long Beach WA Peninsula Visitors Bureau


We are honored to have received these awards and nominations on our site.
www.funbeach.com Nominations and Awards

The best compliment is one from our site visitors.

Here's what some of you have had to say:


Appreciate your Web-Site---- Clean, Concise, and nice to navigate thru. Thank-you


My folks and I love it so much we are moving to Ocean Park this spring. My Dad says Long Beach reminds him of his summers at Cape Cod. For my New England Dad to say that, its something!!!! Keep up the great work on the website. I tell all my friends around the world about FunBeach.com!


...My wife and I consider North Head lighthouse to be one of our favorite side trips while visiting the peninsula...I think that you and your staff have done a very good job with the Funbeach.com web site. The added links to youtubecom are especially interesting. They are another unique way to experience all that Long Beach and the area has to offer. Funbeach.com is about the next best way to visit if you cannot be there in person. My wife and I are planning another trip to Long Beach for next spring. We cannot wait. Thank you, again!


I'm writing to tell you that your lodging guide pages (Long Beach Penn.) was simply the best, most informative, easy to use travel aide I've ever encountered. And I travel a LOT! Kudos!


I just wanted to send you a little note of Thanks. Your hotel/motel listings were extremely helpful in quickly finding a place to stay in Ilwaco/Long Beach that is handicap accessible. Sometimes finding a handicap accessible place can be very difficult, particularly in a smaller town.


Just wanted to let you know that funbeach.com is THE place to go for anything that is going on on the Long Beach peninsula. We continually utilize the site for tide information, when to go clamming, what events are taking place on the peninsula, what the weather is like, where to eat, where to stay, etc. The web site is a FABULOUS resource and public service. Keep up your great work!!!!!!


love your site, I love coming there to Longbeach, My husband and i are coming again this weekend, with our sons, It ought to be a fabulous weekend, filled with so much fun and relaxation, This will be our fourth visit since Jan 2007, We were married in Aug 2006, and honeymooned there , We just keep coming back time after time.....anyways thansk for putting this site up it sure does help...When planning your vacation.....


P
lease send two funbeach decals, we love Long Beach and want to support the website-it has great information!


What I like best is your comprehensive coverage of what to see and do on the Long Beach Peninsula as well as where to stay and where to find food. Can't really find anything I like least. It's a great site for someone visiting or planning to visit your area of Washington State.


In case you've been wondering why I've been paying so much attention to your site, I've been reviewing it for addition to the Librarians' Index to the Internet for Washington State (an annotated subject directory of internet resources) otherwise known as 'Wally' at wa.lii.org. I have entered a draft record for your site in our development database, and once finished and duly reviewed by my editors, a description and link to www.funbeach.com <http://www.funbeach.com> will appear in the list of resources at both wa.lii.org and lii.org. The latter is the parent project or site based in California.


Came across a link to your site from a Montana website. Glad I did and have enjoyed your site and various links, very much...great site...easy to use, fun and nicely set up. ...just wanted to tell you how I really liked the set up of your informative site, well done.


THANKS for your time, and keep up your GREAT WORK!! It gives me great pride to share this website with friends from afar who are contemplating a visit. If they had any doubts about coming before getting it, they certainly don't afterwards!!


First, I just want to say thank you for having this GREAT website. I don't know what I would do if I couldn't come here and look at the beach at least once a day. ( No matter how homesick I get) It is nice because my family lives there and I can see them from time to time on various web cams that you have. Thank you soo much.


We have been visiting Long Beach now for about 10 years. My wife and I truly love the area. We have been looking for our perfect spot to retire and we feel it will be Long Beach.


We LOVE Longbeach! My husband is a State Trooper and we discovered Longbeach during one of his assignments there. Longbeach has been our annual vacation getaway every year since! My little boys love the beach and what a wonderful place it has been to spend time with my family! Thank you FunBeach.com!!!


I'll be visiting my mother, on the LB Peninsula, at Christmas time and was hoping to find a church to attend during that time. I was so glad to see a listing on your website of the area churches! Thank you so much!


They tell me in Idaho that all I talk about is the beach, and ask why I don't live there. Your website is the best I can do for now, in between visits. Thanks for such a great site!


Loved visiting the peninsula. Great Place


We just discovered the peninsula this past summer. What a wonderful place! Looking forward to many more visits.


I love the entire Long Beach area. Yes, even though the locals call us puker's, the whole area is fantastic and we are always made to feel at home.
[
Webmaster's note: Wow - I haven't heard 'pukers' in a looooong time! Not quite being a local yet, having lived here full-time only a dozen years, I'll have to agree with your sentiments about the friendly nature of Peninsulans. Here's to the puke's! We make up most the population around here these days! (For you true Peninsula Newbies: Back in the day when fishing and was the dominant economy in this neck of the woods, it was common to hear a salty swab in a Macintosh and Sou'wester refer to someone without their sea legs as a 'puke'. I think you can connect those dots on your own. Fishing is still a strong arm of our economy but we've grown up... a little.]


I love Long Beach!!!!!


Moved here last Aug to retire here and we are loving it.


I have been going to Long Beach since I was a child and enjoy it as much or more now than I did then. I hope nonthing changes, keep up the good work.


We were married in Long Beach just this last August 16th!! We have found were we want to be as soon as our kids are out of school on they are on thier own!! We love it at Long Beach each time we come and visit..at least 3 times a year!


I was just in Long Beach last month, and cannot wait to return! life is a beach! :)


I have the best memories of LongBeach with my husband, now passed on. I trully like this website.


My husband and I spend as much time as we can at Long Beach. Even if only for the day. We hope to retire there if I don't find a job there before then.


i love to watch the ocean waves come in at long beach. i would even love to move closer to your lovely town.


The funnest place to play in Washington!


I LOVE LONG BEACH, JUST HAD MY FIRST EVER TRIP THERE!!! CANT WAIT TO SEE IT AGAIN!!


I really enjoy your website.


Excellent site! Great information, haven't been for a while and ready for a trip to your beautiful beach!

Just there in July. Love it!


I love the beach. It's smell, sound and the sand are just wonderful for relaxing. Wish I was there now instead of this office!


I LIVE ABOUT 4-TO-5 HOURS FROM THE BEACH, BUT I WAS JUST THERE LAST WEEKEND I TOOK MY GRANDGIRLS. WE HAD A GREAT TIME.jUST THE WEEKEND WAS NOT LONG ENOUGH.THE LONG BEACH PENINSULA IS THE BEST.


Love Long Beach. Have owned two cabins at Surfside Estates in past years.


We love to stay in Long Beach. Great community and we always have a great time !!!


Since my father introduced my family to Long beach back in the late 1970's, it has always been a paradise favorite of ours. I envy the good and kind people who reside in this beautiful, ocean front town. It's always hard to head for home after an incredible vacation in Long beach. Can't wait until the next time. Stay pleasant, and thank you for being a great community to visit.


We stayed at the Boardwalk Cottages on Oct 2 to Oct 6 2006. This is a great place to stay and we will be back.


I love Long Beach, I choose to come back to Long Beach for my anniversery, birthday or any other special day. Rain or Sunshine I enjoy to be in your town.


I love this [site]!


Thank you so much! The funbeach.com web is one of the factors that influenced my decision to move here--I recommend it to <anyone> looking for local info. It's the gold standard.


Long Beach is my home away from home. I have been know to drop everything and just head for Long Beach in the late afternoon and walk on the beach and all around town and drive home all refreshed in spirit and body. Hubby is renovating a small trillium trailer so I can stay longer when I come down. Can't wait.


Your site is very informative and fun to look through. I picked up brochures from your visitors center last time there and they were very helpful. thank you.


We make frequent trips to the coast during the summer months, but, would like to start a winter trip tradition as well.. We love it down there.. It has to be the most beautiful place in WA.


We have a second home in Surfside and love getting on funbeach.com so we can prepare for upcoming events, planning our trips accordingly!


This is an awesome website. I visit often. Thank you!


There is NO place like the Long Beach Peninsula. I find myself looking at your website just to fill the void of not being able to visit recently. I can remember the smell of the ocean from in front of my Grandparents house and it brings back memories of playing and digging along the beach. I will bring my family to the peninsula when we have kids just to show them how special it is. Please don't change too much, don't let the rich come in and change the place, it's too special to be ruined. I look forward to searching your site (which I think is great!) and visiting very soon. Stay Natural!


i truly love the long beach peninsula. it is my "happy place". i'd be there all the time if i could, but enjoy the webcams when i can't be there myself. thanks. :)


I love visiting Long Beach. I've been to many kite festivals and sand sculpture contests. There's so much to do there! I'm coming back in October!!


Long Beach is our favorite place to visit. We clam dig all winter and can't wait for the season to open.


I just love your site! Keep up the great work!


There is no place better than Long Beach


We LOVE the Long Beach Peninsula! We always enjoy our stay at the Long Beach Super-8 - GREAT staff! Fantastic eating at the 42nd Street Cafe and also at Dooger's! Funbeach.com is a VERY good web site - thanks !


I like the site for weather, web cams, and activities. Keep up the good work.


I love Long Beach and can't wait to come back!


My husband and I love Long Beach we spend most of our time off there and we also got married at North Head [lighthouse] last August.


What a wonderful surprise to find your site! It makes my life so much easier to plan our vacation to "God's quiet place"! I've been a yearly visitor since the age of 6, and plan on retiring to the Long Beach area in a couple of years. Can't wait to make Long Beach a permanent home!


Long Beach is one of the best places on the Pacific coast.


Love the town, love the beach, love the website.


A great website. I like the emphasis on wildlife and festivals.


Much prefer Long Beach over the other beaches!


The Long Beach Peninsula is the friendliest and most beautiful place in Washington. We spend every vacation day possible enjoying it's wonders!


i absolutely love the peninsula. it is my "happy place" i never need an excuse to come up but sometimes my excuse not to come up is that i don't have the money so it would be great to be "spotted" and win!


I'd live on the peninsula if I could get away with it, I've been coming here since I was about 3 years old, almost 50 years!


I just love Long Beach and I love your website


Wonderful site...and many thanks for showing my picture as one of the June winners. I am so pleased...


Just got back from camping at Cape Dissapointment, had a great time. Weather held out,but for one night, and hiked, biked and walked along your great trails, beach, and camp. My parents started us out on this place and we plan on keeping it up and passing it along to our kids. Thanks for a great vacation


I LOVE YOUR WEBSITE, AND I ALWAYS RECOMMEND IT TO EVERYONE!


We have Funbeach decals on our cars. Way to FUNBEACH!


Your web site is sand-tastic and has been given to our family and friends in New England and the maritime provinces of Canada. Please let us know where to pickup a decal and we will save you the postage.


I've been visiting your web site for years, love the wallpaper!! Especially glad to see with and without calendars - I've even put them on my computer at work and get compliments galore


I found your webcam site by accident, and it has mesmerized me ever since !! My job is very stressful and watching the ocean calms me. Thank you so much !! I'm looking forward to watching the international kite festival - i have been to one many years ago and it was spectacular !! Dont ever shut your camera off !!!!


...wanted to say I think the web-site, funbeach.com, is very, very well done.


I love this website and use it all the time. How can I get a decal for my
car? I have seen them in car windows and business windows when I have been
on the peninsula. I would like to advertise you, too. Please let me know... Thanks!

Where do we get funbeach.com decals? We LOVE the site. IT'S THE BEST!!

Note: Send us an email with your address and we'll put a decal in the mail to you. Stay tuned for our funbeach.com decal spotting contest!


On August 12, 2004, my husband and I were married in Long Beach.  The peninsula has a special meaning to us, and we wanted to have a close, intimate ceremony with only immediate family somewhere very private and comfortable.  It was a bit overwhelming to plan at first, until we found your wedding planner on funbeach.com.  


We held the ceremony at A Rendezvous Place Bed and Breakfast, and were thrilled with the assistance and support we were offered by everyone in the area.  The people at the visitor's bureau were so friendly and helpful, and we truly feel that we would not have been able to have the day we were able to have without the wonderful people who we spoke to.


Since then, we have referred two couples to the area for their weddings, and go back at least 2-3 times every year.  It's not just the activities, food, and beach that have kept us coming back, but the people who work there to keep the Long Beach Peninsula a great place!  Thank you!


We will be visiting the second week of July and would love to have a packet of information especially the great detailed map found on the website.  Your website is GREAT and provided us the information we really needed.  We have booked 4 nights in the area and can't wait to start exploring


What a great idea the web cams are. We are headed over there in our RV soon and I take a look at the cams almost everyday. I like the new additions---especially the coffee cam. Have to enjoy a cup while there.


Just to let you know a visitor from Seattle was just [in our business] and says [funbeach.com] is the BEST website he's ever seen and he passes it on to relatives and friends on the East Coast and in the Maritime Provinces. He couldn't stop saying it was the BEST! We're very proud!

Great Website with all the accommodations. Thank-you.


I really enjoy the website, funbeach.com and enjoy going in, and today I just noticed I could subscribe to the newsletter,  that is great!


One of the best sites, covering a broad array of services. Easily negotiated.


I love what u have done with [funbeach.com]. It's very easy to get everywhere a person would want to go... I just wanted to let you know how much i appreciated your thoughtful response.


Great new pictures for this year – thanks (I use them monthly!)


Your new look is Awesome.  I really like the new format for the photos on the first page, and  also like how quickly they change.  The multiple-depth way of shortening your important topics list is a great improvement.   I hope your webmaster got a big raise for 2006 as he really deserves it!  See you at the beach soon, and thanks again for allowing me to dream of the Peninsula while sitting here at my computer in Portland.


I recently saw your [Beach Vacation Planner] and wanted to compliment you on such a great job! The ads look terrific and I really like the way you put it together.


Oh my goodness - They new pictures are breath taking! That will be us clam digging this weekend. And my daughter's fiance proposed to her this summer (at our house) on the beach in front of the house he wrote, "Marry Me Lizzy"........so I love the second one too. How many times have we written "I Love You" in the sand. Thanks for the memories. You
do a wonderful job.


Just wanted to let you know how much we appreciate what you do. We have a place in Seaview , but dont get to spend nearly enough time there. And its great to be able to come here and see all the things that are going on , especially love the cams ... Thanks again


My husband and I came out from the Jersey "shore" to the Pacific in June.  We had the best time!  ...It was absolute heaven.  The 5 hour flight and 2 hour drive from Portland was definitely worth it.  We often had the question, "Why did you come out here from New Jersey?"  The Pacific is much different from the Atlantic.  It's very cold and somewhat inhospitable - but with that comes the lack of crowds that we get back home.  We can't say enough.  It was a fabulous experience!  Thank you for the wonderful website too!  It was a huge resource!


I just wanted to drop you a quick note to say that as my wife and I were deciding on where to vacation on the coast this week, we were absolutely sold on the Long Beach area by how great and informative site that you have put together. I have never seen a better site that was put together to help people figure out what a vacation area was like, and what it had to offer. I would imagine I am not alone in that opinion. Great Job!


Thank you! I am a long time visitor to Long Beach ( there is just something about that place!) and it is SO neat to be able to see what is going on in my favorite place at any given time. It is almost like being there. Thanks again!


Thank you for again displaying the GIANT Cow and Pig.  We were visiting last winter and they were down.  Both of our kids cried.  They were both so happy to see them again this summer.  You have a great website, by the way, it is so well orgainized and easy to find anything we are looking for.  We will visit the Peninsula again soon.  Your webmaster should give lessons!


I forgot to tell you what a great site funbeach.com is!! I have told my friends about it.It is the first site I go to every morning and at least 4 or 5 times a day. Seeing "my" ocean helps me cope with my stressful days.And if I can ever find a way to get to WA again....it will be to stay! First stop...Long Beach! I wouldn't be able to walk on the beach again,due to severe spinal arthritis but I sure could stand,sit,smell, see and hear it! Oh,and maybe fly a kite again like I did as a child.Thank you again for having your site and bringing me as close as I can get to "my" ocean beach, at least for now.


This is a wonderful web site... loaded with information and well organized.  I've visited the area your site covers several times in the past and found your web site while preparing for another visit.  Bookmarked. Emailed link to several friends.  Next stop ... check out the wallpapers I see so many raves about.


Thanks for all the effort you have obviously put into this site!


This is a great site.  I just finished sending a card to a friend of mine as she is the person that recommended your site to us for next month when my husband and I are over there on vacation. Keep up the good work.


For a number of years I have had your pictures on my computer at work. It is always a good reminder to visit the beach. The beach with the best food is Long Beach! Having the options you now have available is wonderful. Thank you,


Great photos! And thanks for the calendar option! Keeps me getting in the car and visiting when I’m reminded on a daily basis.


I really enjoy all the choices for the wallpaper you've given us! Great shots!  Do you plan on giving the choice of having the calendar on all of them or will it stay with just one being available with? Thanks for the great variety!! [Webmaster's Note: We'll be providing one calendar image each month and hope to expand on the non-calendar images as well.]


Thank you for selecting my photo as a winner in your monthly photo contest and for sending the funbeach.com award and window decal.  The decal can now be seen on the back window of my car, where I must say it displays very smartly.   Keep up the great work with your awesome website.  I visit it often,  tell my friends about it, use your wallpaper as my monthly desktop calendar and we visit the Peninsula whenever we can.  Your beach is certainly a fun-beach for us.


I have found your calendar wallpapers  a wonderful addition to my computers at home and at work since I discovered them last year, and have been inspired to make a couple extra trips down as a result. No more calendars with the wallpaper??? Can't we have both??? [Webmaster's Note: You sure can! We'll be watching downloads to see if enough of you want both that we should continue to provide them in both formats. Support your favorite wallpaper!]

Just wanted to say how much I enjoy using the monthly calendar shots on my computer.  We have visited Long Beach several times and enjoyed the restaurants, golf, and walks on the beach.  The calendars are a great way to keep in touch between visits.

Thank you soooooo much for the monthly wallpapers.  They take me right back to Long Beach and I LOVE your town!!  I live in eastern Washington (in the desert) and it's so nice to look at my computer and see your beautiful beach.

I found your site when looking for information about Washington state. Very nice and informative. I made a link from my website, so everyone can enjoy it...Greetings from Holland

Your website is excellent and has been most helpful! ...you folks 'get it' Thank  you!

I would just like to say thank you for having such a great site. I am in the millitary and no longer live on the penninsula and it is nice to be able to go and see what is going on at home and see pictures of home. it really helps when you are not able to be home.

Your "weather" information is the most accurate in the state. Thanks! I use this website all the time !

I am writing you to let you know that your picture of the No. 1 Fire engine in the Ocean Park 4th of July  parade has touched my family more than you would know...We are all currently living in San Diego County in California, but not to my Dad's liking. He would much rather be on that long  windy beach where he grew up.

You have put together a really nice web site.  It has been most helpful.  Thanks.

We just wanted  “whomever” to know this is one of the BEST Web-Sites we have visited. Thanks so much to ALL of you that keep it current!  We enjoy it every time we can, for pure pleasure and keeping up on all the activities.   

We love the wallpaper and use it each month for our desktops.

I'm planning a short-notice weekend trip to Long Beach and found your restaurant listing to be very helpful! Nice job. I just wish every restaurant had a site as well. I'm looking forward to my first exploration of the area.

Your web site has been most handy to me, as I will be relocating to the 'Ninsula in April. ( Used to live in Portland and have visited the area for the last 10 years). I've been able to send quite a number of inquiries out to real estate places and (possible) employers, by going thru the site. Lovely work..easy to navigate, and it always loads ups. :)

The site you maintain is fabulous. We in Texas are thrilled to see all your beautiful pictures.

Hi - I love your site. I go there every day to look at the web cams and to keep up with what is going on. Long Beach is my favorite spot in the whole world. I live in Kansas right now but my heart and home are in Washington.

You have a great web site. I have been a viewer for a couple of years now. In fact my parents live in Ocean Park and it a great way for me and see whats is going on there and the webcams are the best part my dad has a boat in Ilwaco and I can see his boat from the cam. I had my parents go in to town and stand by heron cam and wave. In less then 60 sec. there they were! So keep the good work and keep improving

I've been cruising your web-site and absolutely love it. It's now on my regular "rounds" of checking things out. I have seen the Bridge Cam on the bridge across the Columbia... I just can't get over how beautiful that area is. I'm "in love" with that area and want to move there!

I just wanted to say that your wallpaper is awesome. I put it on my computer every month.

I love your postcards and all the options, especially the music. A great feature!

[I'm] really enjoying all these wonderful information you have put together on this site. Thanks.

We love your website, it is so full of information and well laid out.

Thank you for the webcams! My wife and I enjoy the webcams everyday! (usually several times a day) We hope to vacation in your beautiful community soon!

I have been checking your site for over a year now, I enjoy the cams the MOST. but the rest is good too. thank you for for your site.

This is one of the best websites I have used for looking up information about your community. Thank you very much!

I just got home from 10 days out in Wash ...it was so nice and great to just relax... the clam chowder was delicious, also made many trips to [the] ice-cream shop. I will be sure and come again next year, your brochure really helped...

We love the funbeach website! We visit nearly every day, if nothing else just to check the Clam Cam.

Just wanted to express my appreciation for the Clam Cam and Wallpaper. Having moved from my Northwest roots more than 40 years ago, you help me stay in touch. The July [2003] Wallpaper photo is breathtaking.

...just when i thought u had topped it u went and did it again the new web cams are awesome i love them all and now i can see right down town and i cant wait to see them i have emailed a couple times before and im sure u remember how much i love this site

...would like to thank you for your wonderful newsletters! .They are so lovely to read!  It just makes me much more excited in visiting again this year!

The Main Street cam is great! Now I have another window on my favorite place...The FunBeach site just gets better and better. Brava!

I want u to know that the new ocean sound is awsome. I love it. I visit this web quite often. I love the penisula and this is great. Thank you.

I think you guys have a wonderful website. Good Job to ALL!

Your web design is great. Easy to browse. Especially your interactive community calendar. Keep up the good work!

By the way, in addition to looking for a house for this summer on the WA/OR coast, I have been cruising websites for trips to Alaska, British Columbia, Baha Peninsula and San Diego, CA. Your website is among the best. I like the way it stays open and I can open and close it's individual pages without losing 'you'. Lets me keep open the places I like and compare them, too. Thanks for the extra effort.

...just wanted to say how much i enjoy your web page...easy to maneuver,
easy to read and the links open separately. thanks

I have had the wallpaper for the last 3 months. I just sent 3 postcards; beautiful --thanks !!
I am moving to Washington in the near future; will come to Long Beach, yes !! Thanks again for the great website

Love the wonderful things you do with your site! And postcard is a great idea!!

Well you all have went and done it again. Your web site is GREAT standing alone on it's own.. Now with the new postcard add on is GREAT. Keep up the good work.. Looking good.. A web site that has everything a person could ask for. All the information a tourist would want and more. Keep it up web master.

I just wanted to tell you I love your e-card service..Thank you for putting one up. I appreciate it

Love them all [Virtual Postcards]. Thank you. I sent my daughter the “Birding at Leadbetter” and she was impressed!

The December [2002] Desktop Wallpaper photo is terrific. Congrats to whoever took the pic. [Note: Local photographer Bill Wagner earns high praise from the entire staff of the Long Beach Peninsula Visitors Bureau for his wonderful photograph of the Port of Ilwaco at twilight. We also appreciate his lettiing Santa take a little ride through the image!]

I truly appreciate your communications. I like the calendars and change my
computer every month. Thanks again for your messages.

I wanted to let you know how much I enjoyed your web site. I have [spent] alot of time in Long Beach through the years. Your web site was very informative and very enjoyable. Keep up the good work

Thanks so much for the wallpapers - they're great images, and it's so nice to have a little picture of home (I now live in Calif.) awaiting me every morning. As always, thanks for the fantastic job you do on the site.

I have collected sand from Maine to Nedonna Beach, Oregon, will finish out then start Washington. To date I have about 900 beaches....your sites are the greatest. My hat off to you.

I think the Long Beach Peninsula Visitors Bureau website (funbeach) is absolutely, without reservation, superb. EVERYTHING one would want to find out about the area-- its attractions, events, accommodations, restaurants, properties, how to get around, what it looks like, and so on is there—beautifully, comprehensively and effectively displayed. I made a birthday dinner reservation at The Ark and will book a reservation at a Bed and Breakfast tomorrow. This visit, later in the month, will be our first visit to the Peninsula. Unfortunately, my wife and I have only one day, but thanks to the web site, our day will be filled with sightseeing, walking tours, and exploration, and approached with eager anticipation.

LOVE your web cams... beautiful to look at the ocean on the clam cam... Feel like I am actually there too... can smell the beach and feel the cool breeze... WONDERFUL... Thank you

I got tears in my eyes when I seen the web site.I LOVE IT!

Love the site - my husband and I are considering vacationing in your area...Thanks for a site that's well-organized and easy to use!

I was looking for a dog friendly cabin in Long Beach and I stumbled across your site. I just wanted to compliment you on a great website. I really liked how the links to each hotel opened a separate page - that is logical and user friendly (and you wouldn't believe how many sites DON'T do that!). It was informative and uses icons that allowed me to weed out many places. Thank you for your excellent web design!

You've done a good job creating this site. Looks nice and works well.

I just wanted to compliment you on having such a great and informative site. I wish all the visitor info pages were like yours.

Your site was very informative. I couldn't have asked for more.

Fantastic----thank you so much you just saved me by proving the fish really exist!! Have a great day and please leave the sand dunes intact----there are so few places that really are still natural beach---anyone really wanting ocean front property can come on down to San Diego and watch the beaches wash away-----of course we have the pleasure of spending millions on putting the sand back every year

Thank you very much - I'm sure we will have a wonderful time! BTW I absolutely love your newsletter - I consult it constantly - it really is what keeps us coming back to long beach! Thanks for the great site!

I was exploring your website today and I love it! I just though I would let you know...thank you for your site.

Good web site! No, GREAT web site. One of the very best I've seen. Thank you. I look at the Ilwaco 'fish cam' every day, at least once.

This site has come such a LONG way from it's start. Keep up the good works guys and gals

Wow, it's so nice to see a birding site on "Funbeach". I had no idea one could see so many birds on the Peninsula. It's a fantastic site, and we're lucky that y'all are so dedicated and talented enough to put it together. I grew up on the Peninsula and now live in San Francisco.

I am 34 and have been going to Long Beach since 1966. We have a piece of property there. I learned how to drive at the beach, explored and have had many enjoyable times with family and friends. Thank you for the web site. I have it on my favorites and visit often. Now I live in Yakima and can visit only once a year. But when I am bored, sad or need a lift I can visit the website anytime and be lifted up with enjoyment. I can almost smell the air and hear the surf. Thanks again

I just wanted to let you know how much I enjoyed perusing your website. It was fun, interesting and VERY user friendly. Your lodging page was EXCELLENT......the use of the symbols made searching for the appropriate lodging very fast and easy (and the links to the facility was great!). Keep up the great work!!! I'll be back again!

I wish I could be there all the time....now I'll be happy with weekends..and living vicariously through your website.

This is a great web site Keeps me up to date on what is happening and helps me convince others to visit. Okay so I am biased but who wouldn't be if they could brag about their home town. Keep up the great work last year I had two clients decide to visit the beach after I told them how to check it out. They all enjoyed.

What a great web site. We will be visiting the peninsula at the end of this month. I printed all of the Things To Do.

Just wanted to drop you a quick note to tell you how impressed I am with your website! I work in the Internet industry and many sites aren't as well prepared or presented as yours. Kudos! I grew up at the Beach and now live in Denver. My finance and I are planning a trip to the beach to celebrate our engagement and your site is going to be very beneficial for our out-of-town guests! Thank you so much for having such a helpful site - I'm so proud of my hometown!

Your site is fantastic! We'll be visiting in late April and will be back to the site to make reservations, etc.

I just want to tell you how incredibly wonderful your website is! I had decided I would take my kids to either [another city] or Long Beach for a little vacation. [another city’s] Visitor's Bureau could learn a lot from you. You give so much information! I was able to get accurate prices for accommodations, restaurant and activity advice, etc. I love the links to the motels. None of that was available at [the other city’s] site. No toll-free numbers for the motels, either. Thank you so much for the time and effort you put into your site. It was well worth it!

Thanks for the update. We are looking forward to our visit in August. We have visited your web site and it is really cool.

the slide show was GREAT!!!!!!!!!!!! Ooooooooooohhhhhh! Aaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhh!!!

I like the "fun" cursor - cool.

I enjoy your newsletter!

Spectacular site! Thanks for all the inormation and the incredible ease of navigation!

THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR HAVING SUCH "GREAT OFFERS"

This site was very helpful to me. I love visiting long beach. Thank you!!!!!

I was so impressed by your web site early last summer that I e-mailed you to tell you so, and I've since delighted in telling many people about the imaginative, and highly informative job you've done. I might add that we were equally impressed by Long Beach itself, and are planning to visit again next summer, with the important change that we'll spend a lot more time with you than the two days we spent in August! To that end, I was really pleased to find your e-mail waiting for me. I'm most grateful to be on your 'mailing' list, and look forward to future reminders that it's never too early to start planning for summer holidays! Many thanks, and congratulations, again.

Your site is wonderful!! Really gives you all the information you could want regarding your area!!

You are all doing a great job with the site, it's appealing, easy to navigate and interesting. Everything one needs to know is there, thanks! You have a beautiful web-site. Thanks

This is a great web site, one of the best I have ever seen. Growing up we would spend at least a month every summer in Ilwaco at my uncles' summer place. I have very fond memories of Long Beach and the surrounding area. I check out the "clam cam" ever day now and found a great deal for a weekend get away. Thanks!

I wanted to give you feedback on your website. It is fabulous and helpful! I live in Marysville, WA and come down there fairly often. This is ever so helpful. I gave my grown kids a gift certificate for four days in Long Beach. They've never been down, so I printed off several items to help them find all of my favorite places. this a.m. I printed off the weather report for them before they left.

hsi site has been well maintained. It is informative and i guess serves as the best guide to anyone planning to visit the Long Beach Peninsula.

I just wanted to tell you that you have a great web page. The section on where to stay is just fantastic. The symbol guide really helped to find the right type of accommodation, especially since we have three small children. Thanks for doing such a great job.

Great website!

GREAT SITE. LOOKING FORWARD TO OUR VISIT IN AUGUST!

Your new additions of the slide shows are great!!! So nice to see the other events that I do not normally get to see!

You deserve an award! Really!

I enjoyed your site. It is both informational and a "fun" site to visit. Thank you so much!!

great site!

FANTASTIC site! We are part-time residents of Klipsan Beach area and if we are headed down from Tacoma we can see what is happening while we are down and we can see the weather to pack for and how crowded it is in downtown! Keep up the good work!

I have been searching for weeks to find the perfect vacation spot for my fiance and i. Your site is the most thorough that i have come across. Because of the ease that i am able to locate the different services that are provided in long beach we will be coming there for our vacation. Thank you for making everything available on one easy site.

Great Site! Very informative, easy to navigate & Fun. Could be a little more colorful.

A great (and colorful) looking website with plenty of information. Congratulations.

This site has drawn me to Long Beach where I hope to find a relaxing, quiet respite for me and my little dog "Pappy."

Your website was great assistance. I went to Long Beach this last week-end (12th-13th). Your website is so colorful and as I said before very beautiful, not to mention all the information I received in helping me find a room, where to eat and what to see and do. I got an excellent deal on a room at "The Breakers". I'm sure I will look to them first in the future, when ever I need a room! It was a wonderful week-end and I do plan to visit again very soon! Again, thanks to you and your website!

Nice website.

MY HUSBAND AND I LIVE FOR YOUR LIVE WEBCAMS! WE'LL BE THERE IN 3 YEARS OR LESS! RETIREMENT, HERE WE COME!!!!!! THANK YOU FOR LETTING US "BE IN LONG BEACH" EVERY DAY!!!!!

found this website through marsh's museum website! funbeach.com is now on our bookmarks, it's a fun and happy site!

This is WONDERFUL

Greate site!

To the gentleman that was so helpful when I called: I visited the website and perused the information you gave me along with what was offered on the website and was able to make a great decision. Thank you again, so much, for your assistance when I called.

It's everything I hoped for. Good work.

Great job ! Keep up the good work. Nice Website.

I love your website…very informative and I love the coupons

great site.. tons of info for our upcoming visit!

nice site

Very nice Web Page design

Thank you for your response!! What great hospitality & customer service!! I made many calls yesterday, speaking to many, all very polite & willing to help. Other names of hotels , B&B's, ect. were shared. I must have called 20 establishments! As I was about to give up, I secured reservations. Hooray!! My parents, husband & I are so excited to visit your friendly cities.
Thanks again for all the assistance given-

I so enjoy the site..You do wonderful work and I thank you so. It is a thoroughly fantastic site.

Great web site! I've found lots of great information as I prepare for my first kite festival visit.

You have a nicely designed website and I like the listings of accommodations

Great slide shows!!

This is a wonderful site. It makes planning a vacation easy, and lets me enjoy Long Beach even before I get there.

I love your website! It's one of the best I've seen...easy to navigate and full of useful content. I'm thinking of taking my daughter to the kite festival and am thrilled at how much good information I got from you. Usually I have to take lots of notes and then make a bunch of phone calls to get all the info I need, but not this time. I especially like the way the lodging section is organized - I feel like I could make a selection without even calling any of them. Thanks for making it so easy; I'm excited to come and visit.

your web site rocks.. totally..

Your Latest Slide show of the Kite Festival is simply AWESOME!!! Your Site is the best---without exception! Keep up the Fabulous work. We enjoy the Peninsula immensly and frequently visit funbeach.com just to get a fix.

Thanks for all the great info

Beautiful site! I have LOTS of company going to be coming to see me. They'll be spending LOTS of green in the neighborhood. Thanks!

Great Web Site

Great looking site gang.

This is a pretty cool site very interesting. And has lots of information. I've been coming to Long Beach since I was a kid and I always enjoy reading about the beach. I feel it's my second home in the summer months when I can get there. And when I can't this site is very helpful to anyone.

An excelent site.

How many times have I used your Fun Beach site, let me count the ways! I have lots of family who live there in the area and when I visit, I don't like staying with them! So your site helps me choose a place to stay and I've used the coupons more than once too! I used to spend all my summers there as a young girl and love to go back as often as possible but when I can't go, I just tune in to your site and it's like going home again. Thank you!

Very informational, exceptional links and calendar of events showing as you go, are an eyecatcher. Great Job !

The web site is wonderful. For several years I have tired to get advanced information on the Kite Festival and usually can only get the dates. I have friends from out-of-state and they are very interested. The Festival site is great....Thanks a lot

This website is superior with it's automatic scrolling event board and numerous photo slide show. Thoroughly enjoyable. Thanks

I love your site

Wow, what a great looking web site! Kudos!

I spent my first 18 years on the Peninsula and still have family there. I was delighted to have found your website through "Oregon References." From what I've seen, you've done an excellent job.

This is a great information source

good site!

his is a great way to find out what is happening at the times I will be visiting

Just wanted to say how great your web site is. I looked everywhere for the clam tides, starting with Washington State Department of Fisheries. All I could find was a page with tides dated 1998&Mac247;oops someone must be asleep up there in Olympia.. Then I came across your site sort of by accident, and there they were! We live in Longview but didn't visit Long Beach much until recently. We've stayed at several bed and breakfasts and attended the last kite festival. I've enjoyed the sites, activities, and friendly people.

enjoyed your site.

I just wanted to say what a fantastic website you have. It was easy to find (I did a search on Google.com), easy to navigate, and very, very helpful. I'm impressed with the organization of it, and how all of the information was easily accessible and presented in a lovely format. Bravo!

Great site. Happened upon it and now its a favorite.

this site is wonderful it gives so much great information about things to do and places to stay, plus all the great pics.

This is such a great site. We visit the Long Beach Peninsula quite often and always check here to see what's going on. Thanks!!!

Nice info about the area!

This sight is wonderful! I enjoyed by "cyberstay" very much, thank you!

I love the "funbeach" kite that follows the cursor.
This site is fantastic.

This is a fun and informative site. I visit at least two times a week!

Enjoy the web site info and cams

I really LOVE the kite trailer on the end of my pointer on your main page! The info ptovided was great and to the point, thank you. I have been to the Kite Festival before and to area as well before.

This is a very informative and easy to use site.

thank you for a nice and informative web site!

I am very impressed with the abundance of information on your site. Please keep of the good work!

Thanks again for having a web site that is up-to-date, artisticly designed, and user friendly.

This is a great web site! Very informative.

I've been forwarding the site to my friends in Portland and Seattle because they've been talking about heading to the beach too - just thought I'd share that they were also duly impressed ;) Keep up the good work!

I have enjoyed a short visit to your town and now I have enjoyed your web site. I have especially enjoyed the Virtual Tour as we did not get to see everything. Hope to come again soon. Thanks for the virtual trip.

Love this site, great job. Thank You!!

Hello, I really enjoyed looking at some of your pictures that were on the Beach.fun.com (I think that's what it was called). I haven't been to Illwaco or Long Beach since I was a little girl and your pictures really made me smile. They were also able to make a few tears fall from my eyes because you see, I don't have very many happy childhood memories except for one particular time that my mom and dad took me and my brother along the WA coast. Thank you so much for taking me back in time. :-) God Bless you all.

Nice web site... Thanks!

Nice site you have done a great job!! Please add me to your Newsletter mailing list.

Thanks for all the info and the wonderful navigation!

Pretty nice site. Found it informative for entertaining our out-of-town guests. Thanks.

GREAT SLIDE SHOW OF KITES AND THE BEACH

We had a wonderful time looking at the interesting adventure that are on your beautiful peninsula. We are very anxious to see the coupons for 2001.

thanks for the great site.

LOVE your webpage...found it very very useful. I look forward to seeing even more listings and updates. Thanks!

Wow! And a weather link too! Thanks a bunch and have a very nice year. PS my friends all love your funbeach website!

Great site - very informative.

Your site has convinced me to vacation here. I'll contact my travel agent tomorrow. Thanks

I THINK THIS SITE IS GREAT!!! I HAVE BEEN TRYING TO GET INFO ON
LONG BEACH AND OCEAN SHORES AS I AM PLANNING A GROUP GET TOGETHER OF 10-14 PEOPLE. YOUR WEBSITE IS THE BEST I HAVE SEEN. IT HAS GIVEN ME SO MUCH INFORMATION AND PICTURES TOO! MUCH MORE THAN THE OCEAN SHORES WEBSITES. YOU HAVE OUR BUSINESS. SEE YOU THIS SUMMER!

This is truly a fantastic site. Will be hard to keep this place a secret when this gets out. My wife and I are nearing retirement and looking forward to locating there hope-fully next spring. Keep up the great site. Look forward to it as one of my "favorites".

Your website is wonderful - informative as well as beautifully designed and easy to navigate. I printed off most everything from the website. Makes me want to be at the beach! Thanks again.

Excellent web site.. thanks!

We didn't see your previous site, but we feel that this site is outstanding!! We frequently use the internet to find lodging, eating places, and things to do. Your site far outdistances sites we have visited in large cities in various parts of the country. Good Job!

Your web site looks great! It is very user-friendly and attractive. I like the link to the clam cam.

I have been studying your site for about a week. We are planning a family trip to the area in early June. Since I am from Kansas City and have never been to the area your site has been a life saver. The changes are wonderful. Can't wait to check it all out in person. Thanks.

Your web site is fabulous.
I have to say that the funbeach.com site and the newsletter are just wonderful. You are doing a fantastic job. Kudos and thank you!

You asked for feedback [on the newsletter] and I just wanted to let you know I think it looks great! I plan on sending it via email to clients.

Great web site! Provided lots of useful information -- places to stay, charters, golf, dining options . . . what more could a first-time visitor ask?

Only genius minds bolstered by days of sun and sand could think such golden thoughts as we find in Funbeach! whenever i have a bad day i visit and immed-iately feel much better, when we plan to visit in reality, things are so much easier with the information right there on the screen. of course i still call the hotline to hear real voices telling me the latest scoop, but this funbeach is A#1 in my heart! Keep it up, you have an excellent site, wish more places would learn by your example. just a shell lover in Puyallup

On the whole the design has a lot going for it, and you deserve a great deal of credit for the hard work put in on that project. Congratulations.

I am the lady who talked to you a couple weeks ago on the phone and expressed her appreciation for your website. I have been spending several nights exploring it --- and I am still not finished! It is worth coming back to again and again. It is much better than the Ocean Shores website. Keep up the good work! You make a web visitor feel that your beach is worth visiting. There is so much to do that it would take at least a week amongst all the wildlife refuges, state parks, Lewis and Clark historic areas, and forts. The boardwalk and the sand dunes also sound interesting. I was thinking of going farther north, but now I think that I will come to your area if I come to Washington next summer. It doesn't hurt that it is also very pet friendly. Suggestion: Advertise how close your beach is to Mount Saint Helens. Say that you can visit the beach then spend a day or two visiting the monument on your way back to wherever you came from.

Thanks for the great page!

I think the new look is great! I checked out your website last year and find the new one much improved. We make yearly visits to Long Beach and I found your lodging page very easy to browse through. I especially liked the at-a-glance amenities and rates.

Hi, the site gets better every year.. Can't wait to see the finished work of art... :-))

Fun to read, and very informative. Answered all my questions. Thanks!
My husband and I own some property in Ocean Park and it is so great to get information about the area and see the temperatures. We love the Clam Cam. Does it change periodically? By the way, we live in Farmington, NM. The site is wonderful! Thanks.

You are to be commended!!! Take this to your boss, if you have one. I have never received such tremendous service from anyone. We definitely will stop by for info and I'd love to be able to shake your hand (I'll be careful 'cause you are a prime candidate for carpal tunnel syndrome).

I finally viewed the website and want to compliment you -- it's great! You really did a fine job!

funbeach.com is an incredible site - I am proud to be a part of the new wave of exciting, positive steps forward in making our area a destination.

Just checked your web site on a whim and am very impressed with the content and the way it is designed. I have spent much time on the peninsula and was raised there as a kid, and so I like seeing one of my favorite areas promoted so well. Very nice job.

Love to visit this site daily :) But your Clam Cam hasn't had a picture the last couple of days. We recently stayed in Long Beach and had a great time. Will definately return.

GREAT SITE. A LOT MORE INFORMATION AND EASIER TO NAVIGATE AROUND THAN THE PREVIOUS PAGE. GREAT JOB

Hi There! Just a quick note to let you know that my family really appreciates your web site! We live in Longview and it is great to be able to bring this site up to check things out before we drive that far. The temperature and "Clam Cam" are especially nice. The updates on clamming are a great feature too! Keep up the good work!

easy to use site. very helpfull

THIS SITE ALONG IS GREAT. A LOT VERY USEFUL INFORMATION. KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK.....

Thank you!! This is so cool.

It is my first time to explore your website. It is really cool, especially in the part of 'See a Tour' of Long Beach. I like the web design. Your page design is one of the most beautiful pages what I ever seen. Keep doing it and good luck...

I love your new website!! Keep up the good work!!

I just wanted to say that I like the look of your new web site.

New look on your website is great and easy to navigate--way to go

Great!

Very impressed with your web site. Well organized and informative.
The site is much improved. A real excellant website, alot of interesting things change from the normal list on list area sites.

Your website is extremely helpful in accessing the Long Beach peninsula. We are having a family reunion this July with 50 people coming from all over the United States. The funbeach site has been invaluable for giving them an idea of what this area has to offer. Your human support staff at the Visitors' Center has also been extremely helpful and friendly. Your efforts have already con-tributed to a much more agreeable stay for our family.

Thank you for sending the link to your site. The new site looks great, and is very informative. I am looking forward to visiting your area.

I love your new look!! This sight is one I will bookmark. It loads quickly, colors are easy on the eyes and the text very interesting. I am anxious to return to the beach.... Kudos to the residents that had the insight to hire a fantastic web builder to highlight the peninsula.

Just got back from a great stay at Long Beach, all planned with your web site. Thanks!!! We loved our cabin, ate good food and saw all the sights we had chosen from your lengthy lists of things to do! Our first internet vacation and a real winner!

It was a real treat to be brought up to date with the latest on LB happenings, keep up the good work, all of you, and please keep me on your A list!!!! We plan to be cruisin' your way this month, and really look forward to the treat.

Visitors Bureau newly designed website: You asked for our opinions, so how about this one?? How many ways can I say it's .....!!!!! Honestly.... it's absolutely incredible...you guys are lucky to have this talented lady as your webgal --- but you already know that, I'm sure!! It's BEAUTIFUL. My girlfriend across the river & I agreed .... it is one of the NICEST, bar none, sites we have ever visited on the web. You have a lot of talent, and you used it very very WELL. :)

As a Peninsula native - born in Oysterville, 1935;Graduated from Ilwaco HS, 1953 - I'm happy to have found your web site. I'll be using it to keep informed and for possible vacations "home."

It's been two years since I was last "home" (born in Oysterville). Your site and newsletter makes me very nostalgic. Keep up the good work.

i think your website is one of the best i've ever seen. i can't believe the amount of information you've put here --thank you!

very informative

Your web site is great!

I love your web page, the Clam Cam., the time and temp. just everything about it! Thank you so much for a lot of work done on it. I like knowing when events are happening, we try to go over there as often as we can.

I have just spent some time wandering through the new site and would like to send my congratulations. It is easy to move around in and contains good, pertinent information. The photography is lovely – especially enjoyed the slide show. I think you have really done an outstanding job for the peninsula and appreciate all the effort it took to produce such a well-done and complete overview of what this special area has to offer.

I like your web site, very well done

I like the new look, it is easy to navigate. Keep up the good work!

You've got a great website!

What a marvelous service you're providing! I can't say enough good things about you and your organization. Maybe we'll even stop by to say thank you and maybe have a cup of coffee (we'll buy, of course)!

Your pages are great! Thanks! See you in July!

Keep up the wonderful work. Your new pages are fantastic..I feel sorry that you didn't include a slide of Sacajawea (the lovely lady in the parade) in your slide presentation.. She should be applauded for her wonderful community spirit. Now there is a representation of our town.. She's a winner!!.............You'll see her in red, white and blue on the Fourth of July. She's not afraid to stand up and be counted.

NICE WEB SITE BUT TOOK ME SEVERAL TRIES TO FIND IT

PRETTY COOL!!!!! Thank You. What a fantastic web page. You should be very proud. It's a winner for sure!

The web site is great! I think it's well laid out and easy to navigate. Thanks for the feedback opportunity.

Great!

Your website is awsome!

It would be real good to have a city map, so that you can see where all of the hotels and RV spots are compared to the main part of town. It would help pick the right spot if you want to be able to walk to town everyday.

This is one of the very best sites that I have visited, great work, something to be very proud of. Thanks

Great web site! Found it by calling Long Beach Visitor Bureau's phone number found in "Unforgettable Pacific Northwest Camping Vacations by KiKi Canniff, at the Pierce Co. Library.

Great sie! Easy and clear to follow what a relief!! Good Job!!!!!!

You have a grate page. Keep up the good work

This is a great site with lots of useful information

great site, lot of useful information, liked the virtual tours

wow!!I think youve got a very nice web presentation!I have spent some time working and playing on the long beach,from the Johnson House in O.P. to the old beach front in Ilwaco,it's all a jewel!!In your quest for tourist dollars try not to destroy the small town resort atmosphere.

I really enjoy coming to your site and being able to find out what is going on. Can't wait to be there this weekend.

luvit!!!!!!!

this is really neat web site

Very nicely organized Web site, good information

Great Web Site!

Very good web site. We will be there this September for a visit and will be checking the site frequently.

Great site with easy access to events, hotels, etc. I come to the coast approx. 3-6 times a year, and this is going to help tremendously with planning. THANKS!
great website!

Great Website! We appreciate the layout and very easy access to all the information we need. We'll be down at the end of July for our first, but not last, visit. Thanfs for everything you provided.

We have been in Long Beach since Saturday and are enjoying it very much. The fireworks display was spectacular..a great effort by all participants. We think the little flags lining both sides of the highway on the 4th was a special touch. And your weather today is perfect! Well done on all counts!!!

Find the site. Saw the pictures. Will be retiring on disability soon and this is just what the Doctor ordered. Looding forward to visiting and finding a home for us to retire to. This is a fantastic web site. You should be proud.

GREAT AND EXCITING SITE!! THANK YOU!

I really appreciate the email newsletter & info I received. Thank you. Looking forward to our visit in August 2000

I was born and raised on the Peninsula. I have been gone for over 40 years. Wow, I was impressed with your web site! I am planning a visit at Ilwaco High Reunion time . . . your web site was very helpful. Thanks!

Your site is really wonderful!! The design especially. Good job.

I think this web sight is great. We use it regularily!! Thank you.
We are coming down to Long Beach the 28-31st of July and have used you site to help make arrangements for this vacation. Thanks you very much

Very informative!Looking for a week getaway to enjoy with my 12yr.old daughter.

No problems, I just wanted to say that I found this one of the most clearly laid out, and helpful tourist sites I've ever visited on the web. My congratulations, and my heart-felt thanks! I wish everyone was as clever in their design abilities as you lot are!

Thanks for suggesting checking your website for photos . We found some great ones and what was realy great they are high resolution photos. The lighthouse photo will look great in the GTE Inside Look Magazine we are doing in your area. To bad all websites are as good as yours. Thanks.

Love Long Beach we visit there 5 tiems or more a year so glad to see this site love it

I love the live Clam Cam. Living in Montana we do not get to see the ocean as much as we would like, and the Clam Cam is a great way to go there. We attend the Kite Festival whenever possible and enjoy it very much. We will not be there this year, but will attend in another way. Thank you

Looks good to me but not quite warm enough.

cool web site, very helpful

My brother lives in Seaview so I'm on the Long Beach Peninsula as often as possible! But, that's a six-hour drive from Wenatchee so I have to plan accordingly! I really appreciate being able to view the Clam Cam and what the weather is doing at the moment-your ongoing list of activities is also great!

This is a wonderful site! It has made our vacation planning easy and fun. We found hotel, fishing charter and activities all quickly and easily. Thanks for having this site!

Looks very nice. Would like to see more.

It would be nice to see more landscape photos of the area...the little I've seen looks beautiful!

Enjoy this site, Thanks

Hello, as longtime visitors (every 6 months or so since 1972) we love this website as it offers vacation rentals we may not have known. We usually stay at (hotel name) but are always looking for something different. The webpage is very well done with easy access to it all even with my slow computer!! See you soon, Long Beach! :-)

Great Site! Hope I can visit soon.

great information

This is really an informative site. Thanks!!!

I enjoyed this site very much... made me wish I was there! Thank you!

loved your site My husband and I are planning on visiting this fall and are looking for a place with a fireplace and maybe a jaquizzi

I love your website. It totally convinced me to come for a short visit, which is planned for Sept. 4th.

marvelous info

I really like what you have done with this site!

I check this sight on a regular basis. I really enjoy seeing what is happening. Make sure you post the clam tides. We enjoy the beach at all times of the year.

I really like your site; however, there is one thing I would like to see changed: your large map of the Long Beach Peninsula is wonderful, but very difficult to read, and even harder to printout. can't read any of the streets, which is one thing I was really looking for. If it could be black and white, with more readable streets (perhaps a map by sections that can be more easily printed?), I think you'd have a perfect resource for people trying to site themselves in the area. Thanks!

This is a great site!

I like your website!!

I have looked all thrugh your web site and enjoyed it very much. Thanks

Great site. Very informative.
I have to tell you, your website is one of the best I have seen. Do you have any recommedations for cabins in the area? Preferably with a fireplace and ocean view? Thank you and keep up the good work!

Talofa, It sure is nice to see my home , the Longbeach Peninsula on the web... afterall , I am homesick . I love it ..and it really HELPS to see the familiar pictures , names of local buisnesses , and local hang-outs . I like the layout of the web page . My son Cameron visits the site frequently to see what's new . After all , It's not like we can just hop in the car and drive there ! we live in Ta'u , American Samoa . We haven't been here for too long.. so we're really suffering from "homesickness " as we adjust to our new surroundings and a whole new culture . Thank you for keeping us close to home via the web .

Wonderful web site. Got all of our information for 2000 of fun things to do at the beach. Keep up the good work. Keep the beach waiting for us for next year.

Is it possible to add a "send this to a friend" link on your site? especially when you pull up the maps!

This is great! I'm using your web pages to help my mom and sister plan a mini vacation!

great web site!!!!

I wanted to let you know how wonderful I think your website is. I have been providing the street entertainers throughout the summer for Summerfest and the Kite Festival. Each of the entertainers has accessed your website to see where they were going, to get directions, to look at the hotel / motel they were staying in and also to see what else was going on. Each person's reaction has been the same...."What a great website!" I wanted to congratulate you on putting together a website that is easy to navigate and is very informative.
