This is a comfortable house that is away from the hustle and bustle of town. Short walk to the Discovery Trail and the beach. We enjoyed having the backyard to grill dinner and to allow our dog some freedom.

Overall it's a nice place. Outdoor patio furniture wasn't clean (mossy), couch very uncomfortable and no TV's in the bedrooms but the house is cute and well laid out. Would suggest soft-white LED lights instead of daylight bulbs since they are stark white.

I loved it but I think it would be great if you posted how long it takes to walk to the beach that would help grandparents walking with grands. It was lovely. Very quiet neighborhood. Very nice home. Wonderful mangers of property. I was mistaken as to how close it was but it worked out GREAT. We will most likely rent again thanks for the wonderful stay

House was just what we needed! Good location, enough rooms, allowed animals. Downside was that it was very surface level clean. It was quite dirty/grimey and needs a really good deep clean/shampoo the carpets or take the carpet out. My nephew is 10 months and when crawling the dirt had come off the carpet/floor onto his clothes in the areas that rubbed the floor. Definitely needs some TLC. Only other thing was the temperature downstairs was pretty cold and had it of been any colder out idk if it would have been manageable/comfortable. Overall good experience, soft beds and nice place to stay

We found that the house was comfortable for a family stay. It had many nice touches. Great for kids and pets. Wonderful location. Quiet neighborhood. Not far from beach. Long Beach is a lovely vacation spot. There are many historic markers and notable spots from the Lewis & Clark expedition. The beach is also known for kites. The property was fairly well maintained but needs more attention to the details. 2 of the bedrooms had no where to unpack clothing except hang on hangers. The backyard is not escape proof. The master bath toilet was backing up. The Property mgr brought over a plunger. Towel rack in master bath was not anchored on wall. Shower in master bath tub didn't work. Master bedroom lamp did not work. The IKEA foam mattresses left me achy. The bed frame had amateurish repair. The backyard grill needs to be replaced. It is clean but looks unsafe. We did not use the grill. The propane tank was empty.

Rating Details: The property manager was very unhelpful. The vacation rental was very dirty. I was somewhat unhappy with the location. I was very dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: REVIEWS ARE FAKE FROM LOCAL RESIDENTS!!!DIRTY, UNPROFESSIONAL, and worst of all, false advertising. House was advertised as having a separate office for a workation house. Turns out there is no such room. Also, at midnight the entire closet in the master bedroom can crashing down - turns out they didn’t even hang an entire closet in STUDS! Can you believe that!?! It could have fallen on any of my four children - AND THE FILTH! Sticky dirty counters, dust everywhere, greasy fridge handles and stove, just awful and gross. I’ve give this place four chances and same on me for giving them so many. I warn y’all, take a close look at their “cleaning” and you’ll see it isn’t clean at all. WORST experience thus far with bloomer, the past vacation there was DOG POOP IN THE LIVING ROOM STILL? And they said they cleaned? Yeah right!! Should have never given a second chance after that, but we did and honestly, shame on me DO NOT GO THRU BLOOMER, their reviews are fake from friends and local residents!!!!!!

We had a very relaxing and comfortable stay at the Whale House. Everything was in perfect condition and the fully fenced backyard was a major plus for our dog.

Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was more than happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The Whales Tale was a fabulous home for our Christmas vacation. Lots of sleeping room for all of us, the 1/2 bath downstairs was super handy and the fenced back yard was perfect for the pups. The kitchen was large, but there could be more silverware and cookware. The skillet was great for breakfast. The walk to the beach is quite a hike, but the trial is nice and easy. We brought puzzles and toys after reading other reviews that the house does not have many. Overall a wonderful stay despite the weather! Bloomer was in touch with us to make sure we were comfortable during the power outage and responsive with any questions for concerns.

Our first impression was good, but if you plan on cooking, bring your own pots and pans. The kitchen is poorly stocked. The kitchen was clean though. We were frustrated when it came to showering and towels. There was one wash cloth in the entire house for four adults to share. I texted the management company to see about getting more, but never got a response. Over all, a nice enough house, but we wouldn't stay there again.

It was a very nice house but there was dog hair on the furniture and we had to cover everything up due to allergies. There also needs to be more silverware and dishes for larger groups.

Great property -- well-kept, quiet neighborhood with easy access to the beachside trail, and a short drive to the town center and main boardwalk. Plenty of room for two adults and four kids, great open layout for cooking + interacting, and lovely back yard with grill and fire pit (s'mores!!!). We had a fantastic time staying here and would definitely do it again.

The house was very clean! There were amidites I didn't expect and was glad to have whether I used them or not. Clean bedding, and having a nice washer & dryer was great. Here was my only downfall. Only one TV and it was a Ruko. I'm an Xfinity person so trying to find the programs I watch was very hard if not impossible. However the worst part was we had kids that don't watch what we watch and a small seating area living room made that difficult. I suggest a second tv be added to the downstairs spare room would have made a big difference. The second major issue to us was NO PARKING on the street, where there was cars parked on the street. The guy that was directly across the street from us parked his jeep directly in front of our driveway and that made it difficult to back out a truck. We drive trucks. We did fit our smaller vehicles in the 2 car garage. We all traveled down separately because we all work different hours. and were not able to condence that. Lastly, the windy beaches really put a damper on the kids enjoying the beach. So would we rent a house at Long Beach again? No. Next year its lake from property. Sorry Long Beach.

Great house for my family and another family to stay out. Fenced in yard for the dog was great. The area was a little out of the way from downtown, but a great location for a quick walk to the beach. We'd definitely stay again.
