Knole House

.

We were not actually able to come for our visit due to Covid. Our initial dates were cancelled due to stay at home orders. Instead of refunding or crediting our stay, we were booked for another week without any notice. Our family was not able to come due to work commitments (we are health care providers) so we paid for a trip that we were not even able to enjoy. Overall I have had a good experience with Homeaway, but definitely not this time. I am sure the home was lovely, but honestly I can not comment as I was not able to come. Homeaway should recognize that they can not simply pick alternate dates without first asking the travelers.

We rented this property for our sons 3rd Bday party. It was amazing. The local fire chief even gave my son a ride on the firetruck! Property management people are amazing and on hand constantly. They even allowed us to blow up a bouncy house for the kids! The walk to beach only takes 3-5 minutes and the views from the house are amazing! The pictures truly do this property no justice! Was such a magical time and we we will be returning for certain! Only complaint is that some of the hot tub jets didnt work.

We enjoyed a great stay with our family and friends.

We had a wonderful time with our family at the Knole House. The location was perfect with a great view and short walk to the beach. The home was really nice.
The only things that could be improved were the cleanliness when we arrived. There were also a few things that needed to be fixed.
I would have like to have a floor plan of the house indicating the number of beds in each room so that we could figure out the sleeping arrangements before we got there.
Overall, we made some wonderful family memories and I would recommend it to others.

The perfect place for a Ladies Getaway. This was the third time I have rented The Knole House and it never disappoints. I wanted to share this wonder house with my friends. We all had a great time visiting the local shops and tried out a couple of restaurants. So much to see and do in a very short drive. Loved the hot tub and the peace of the beach. Already planning my next visit.

We had the best time, this beautiful home offers so many things to do, as well as easy beach access, and close to the town if Long Beach. The home was very clean and cozy, kitchen has everything you need, beds are very comfy, very nice place to stay!

We were delighted with our stay at the Knole House. We had 10 adults and 5 children ages 5 and under. We enjoyed the game room, hot tub, short walk to the beach, BBQ and large kitchen.

Manager's Response

There were 20 of us...beds for everyone between the main house and guest house. Both were beautiful and private and the surroundings are breathtaking. I had a few questions while there and the property manager responded immediately. The location is only 5 minutes driving from town and only three minutes walking through the dunes to the beautiful beach. Our weather was also the best! Overall our experience was delightful!

Our first family reunion, 12 with adults and kids and 2 dogs had great time enjoying our stay. Lots of stuff for kids, had beach almost all to ourselves. Look forward to returning.

We have used bloomer estates rentals in the past. This is one of the nicer larger homes we have rented. There are some areas they were still fixing ie door jams , some walls. The kids room was great( hides the grandchildren’s mess) but a bit away if the children are too young. Short walk to the beach,wonderful views for those who can’t walk far. No beach stickers so you can go barefoot (some rentals have them). If you have a larger group of people who want a comfortable well stocked home. This will most definitely fit your needs

We love Bloomer Estates! We've stayed with them in 2 different houses over the last three summers and every time they have been exceedingly kind and responsive to our needs. When a doorknob broke at our last house they sent out a lovely young man to fix it within an hour. All the houses are very clean, well equipped and generous with cooking utensils, toys, games, linens, etc. Haven't booked any other company since we found Bloomer Estates!!! Book with them you will not regret it!!!

Manager's Response

The house is fantastic and the beach even better. Room to spread your wings but still have your privacy. This house has it all. A short walk to a wonderful empty beach. Love this place.

Manager's Response

Beautiful place that met all our needs & expectations. Ample room for our group of 10. Very comfortable beds. Dining room large enough to seat 10. Well equipped kitchen, actually above & beyond our needs but not complaining. Fun game room and a close walk to the wonderful beach. Hot tub ready for use & a welcome soak. Kathy answered questions immediately & got our technically challenged group set up with TV & DVD player. We had a great time Thanks!

Manager's Response

Rented the Knole House and Beach House together for 17 adults and 2 toddlers. It is a beautiful, comfortable house that had everything we needed and more. Easy walk to the beach, gorgeous views of the ocean, comfortable sleeping options and plenty toys for kids and adults. We really enjoyed our stay here.

Manager's Response

We have rented vacation property from Bloomer Estates for 7 years in a row now. We have recommended them to friends and we have every intention of enjoying their properties for the foreseeable future.

The people are awesome and they actually take care of their properties.

Manager's Response

Nice, big place. Nicely decorated. Great play room in garage. The bedroom above the garage was a little too far away for our youngest - too far from mom. It looks like they are finishing up some remodeling as there is some painting to finish up and the front screen door is missing. All in all we are very happy with this home.

Manager's Response

This was my second stay at Knole House. The house is so comfortable, clean, and well stocked. The convenience of a washer and dryer is invaluable. The location is great. I personally love the hot tub. Easy access to the beach. I really can’t wait to go back.

Great house and guest house for 14 people ranging in age from 4 to 68. Fully equipped house and very clean. Loved the game room! The jacuzzi was leaking, so we had to keep filling it with water, but it still worked and served our purposes. Our daughter got stuck in the downstairs bathroom by the master bedroom because of the old door knobs, so those should be changed. We really enjoyed our stay at the Knole House. Would definitely come back again.

Manager's Response

This House was fantastic!! I was able to impress my family and everybody loved it! We definitely will be back the few and the ocean was a dream!
The house has everything to make a family come together perfect!
I highly recommend this place ❤️❤️❤️❤️

Our group of 8 had a very enjoyable four night stay at Knole House. The home is nicely equipped. There were 3 bedrooms that worked very well for couples. There was a fun dormitory style bedroom as well. The weather was so gorgeous during our late October stay that we never used the entertainment amenities. We were outside almost all day. The walk to the beach is short, easy and a lovely stroll. We ended up cooking "at home" many more meals than we planned to because the kitchen was so well equipped. It would be nice to have a firepit on the patio for the evenings, but that is the only thing I can suggest as a desirable amenity to add. This visit provided a chance for college friends to reunite and we have some great memories to treasure from this trip.

This is the second rental we have stayed at in Long Beach. Loved the kitchen, it was large enough for all of us to cook together (had everything we needed) and including an ocean view. We noticed that the grass was cut down and that enabled us to always view the ocean from the bottom floor of the house. We come to the ocean to listen to the waves as much as enjoy the beach itself and if the window was open or you stepped outside you could hear the waves. Thank you to the property management. Considering many families rent this house on a yearly basis it was perfect and Kathleen was helpful. Hope to be back next year!!

We stayed in the Knole House for the Kite Festival weekend. This is the 5th year we have had a family vacation there. So great. Plenty of room for all of us. Great location. Nice beach area. Everything we need. Loved our stay.

Manager's Response

The exterior storm doors needed repair. There were windows that needed replacement and one main window covering in the living room. We loved the location and access to the beach. And would definitely rent this property again.

The house is gorgeous! Best view from upstairs. Stocked full of ALL kitchen needs ( less stuff to pack)! Any and everything for the kiddoes, the dogs and us adults. We want to stay here again.great hot tub. We had the best time ever! We will be back! Thank you Robby, you seem to know what we like! So many amenities to speak of!

Manager's Response

We vacation with another family each year at the knole house. The beach is so close and every person young and old loves to walk down. Bring your own binoculars (several) everyone will want to be watching the eagles and fishing boats.

The house itself is wonderful with every amenity you may need. The new hot tub is very nice.

Game room keeps kids 5-15 occupied for hours on rainy days.

Manager's Response

We stayed for 4 nights. Loved being able to access the beach off the property. The children enjoyed having a room all their own. It was a bit far away from master bedroom though. The younger children's toys need updating.

Manager's Response

We had a family getaway at the Knole house and could not have been happier. The website photos do not do justice to the beauty and style of this home. With terrible weather on the coast, we were kept happy and busy with all the amenities, including the stocked kitchen and rec room. I have to really thank Chandy. We had a tornado alert one night and she was there to answer the phone at 3am with information on where to go in the house for safety. Hope to visit again in the future!

Manager's Response

Great time.

Manager's Response

Absolutely love this place - plenty of room for 3 kids and so happy we could bring our dog. The pool table and giant dart board and basketball in the garage was well used, the short trail to the beach was appreciate and this house is very close to the town area and the discovery trail. Biked from this house to the trail - loved it!

Manager's Response

We had a lovely family vacation, the home is beautiful, nicely equipped, lots of space to be together or all alone in your, own little space in this big house.

This is the fourth year we have rented the Knole house for a family clam digging vacation. It is the perfect place to come together with key beach access, entertainment for teenagers, great kitchen for big family dinners and plenty of space for everyone.

The Knole House has everything anyone would need for the perfect beach vacation! Fully stocked with appliances large and small the kitchen is a dream, sleeping areas are comfortable, and our big kids loved the game room! Very private location but just minutes to town, this was a great weekend!

Vacation was great, we had an amazing time.

The Knole House is beautiful everything we needed was right there. We loved the private path to the Beach.

Manager's Response

The kitchen has every appliance you could want. The location to the beach is great. Also a fun game room. The beds were comfortable. We really enjoyed our stay.

Manager's Response

What a fantastic property and just as described. We had a rough start with a few repair issues but the staff of Bloomer Rentals was excellent, professional and accommodating to make our stay a great experience. The views are amazing and the private path to the beach was great for our kids. The house was well taken care of with comfortable furniture and appropriate decorations. Plenty of room for everyone to spread out and the reception room was a definite plus in the evenings after the sun went down. We spent a lot of time walking and playing on the beach with a visit to the lighthouses also. The kite museum in Long Beach was very interesting and worth the time. Without hesitation, I would recommend to friends this great place.

Manager's Response

Our stay, for a multigenerational, extended family gathering, exeeeded our expectations. We had a total of 13 ranging in age from 6 months to 80+ (plus two dogs) so we reserved both Knole House and Knole Guest House, but we did most of our socializing and our meals in Knole House. The house layout allowed for quiet spaces, recreation and even allowed us to watch the Seahawks together. We were challenged at the beginning of our stay to identify any amenities that might be missing and we tried - but failed! Although we cooked in for the entire stay, we never lacked for anything we needed. We've stayed in other vacation rentals we've been very happy with (and a few we've been less happy with), but Knole House stands out as exceptional. Beach access is easy and the view across the dune grasses to the surf is restful. The house is equally suited for families with children or adult gatherings. There is something for everyone. Our only negative was that the dryer was temporarily out of service during our stay, but we were notified upon arrival and were offered free use of a laundromat if we needed it. It was not a problem for us and we could have used the guest house dryer if necessary. We heartily recommend this rental and plan to return in the future.

This vacation rental was perfect in every way. From the ease of booking online to the property itself. It exceeded my expectations. The home is absolutely stunning. The kitchen and appliances, both large and small - fabulous. The beds - so comfy. The linens - so clean and fresh. The location is idyllic, the views spectacular, the accommodations - inside and out - spotless. This property accepts dogs and you would never know it. Did I mention the house was immaculate? Kudos to their housekeeping staff! The home is conveniently equipped with everything a vacationer could need. It is beautifully sophisticated yet comfortable, roomy yet cozy and has a private access to an amazing, breathtakingly expansive beach area. From the game room with pool table, ping pong, basketball and more, to the hot tub, the kites and beach, to the multiple televisions, DVD players games and movies, we were never bored. An amazingly memorable time had by all. I called the rental office to ask a couple of check out questions. They were professional, so pleasant and accommodating. I will definitely, without hesitation, rent this property again or another from Bloomer Estates. Highly, highly recommend!

Everything we could have hoped for and more -

This house has everything you need for a family vacation. The kite room was fully stocked with toys, books, lamps by each bed, kid movies and couch, perfect for the kids. The kitchen had every top of the line appliance, utensil and cooking/serving dish you might need. Feel free to be picky - they have a keurig, drip coffee maker and a french press and electric kettle. Even roomier and nicer than the photos, we really had a wonderful stay and will be back again

Our Mother/Grandmother/Greatgrandmother and aunt's first birthday after her passing was a tough one. She always loved the Long Beach area and we decided to make it a vacation/memorial for all family interested. We were 8 family members in the Knole House with other members renting the Guest house. The Knole house has a wonderful open kitchen area adjacent to the patio and hot tub. We had several get togethers over a 5 day period with all of the family members in Long Beach for the one day memorial. It was a great way to celebrate our loved one and everyone who stopped by said how wonderful the house was. I am sure many of them will be renting this place for future vacations.

Great location and home for multi-generational get together. Kids played for hours upstairs with dress up clothes and toys while parents socialized in the open kitchen and living room. EVERYTHING we needed was in the home!

Although looking a bit worn on the outside, the home quickly became a peaceful retreat. There was plenty of room to both gather as family and find some quiet time. The game room was an undeniable hit for the boys, and the kitchen and BBQ great for all our cooking and baking needs (although it would be nice to have some more basic baking ingredients stocked in the house for the rental price). Access to the beach was private and idyllic. Even with a hot weekend, the house remained rather comfortable. Town is a short drive away. Great biking with nearby Discovery Trail. Kite flying was perfect. A great family retreat!

Had never rented a house before and loved it! Private and so spacious. Hot tub and playroom were a huge hit! Grandkids learned to play ping pong. The beach was wonderful and quiet with the exception of vehicles on Sunday. Great burgers and shakes at The Corral and excellent donuts at The Cottage. I definitely recommend the Knole House!

On arriving, the spaciousness and amenities pleased adults and the kids. The kite room was fun for the youngest child while the rec room gave the rest of us things to do out of the sun. Access to the beach and the hot tub made for great fun while outside. The deck could have been larger - it was not large enough to accomodate 5 adults and two kids.
The upstairs bath wasn't easy to share - hard to know if occupied or not. A better set of locks that make it clearer when occupied is needed.

The location to the beach was exceptional. We saw eagles and a bear. The eagles were expected, the bear, not so much. The house was beautiful, clean and the kitchen was well appointed with appliances and utensils. We enjoyed the hot tub each night. We had 6 ladies from mid 70's to early 20's and we all had a great time. The beds were very comfortable. There are great local restaurants we tried, The Pickled Fish and the Lost Roo. Great burgers at the Lost Roo and great specialty drinks and steak at the Pickled Fish.

The house was great, we celebrated my friends 40th birthday. The house stocked, clean and beautiful. The hot tub and location were the best, we all had such a great time.

We headed out to the Long Beach area from Portland after our son's graduation. We also had 6 relatives from China with us, their first trip to the USA! Knole house is ideally situated with just a short walk over grassy verge and dune; it was even manageable walk for my 87 yr old father-in-law who has some hip issues (so happy to find a walking cane in the front closet along with extra rain slickers). We were entranced by the views from both house and beach. The house itself is well fitted out- we loved the kitchen. It was fully stocked in terms of equipment and dishware (with a great rice cooker). The gas stove was powerful enough for stir-fry and the overhead fan dispelled cooking smells readily. Loved the bakeware too and the waffle maker was a hit! We all slept well-- bathrooms adequate with 4 toilets though only 2 showers (one up and one down). The bathrooms were readily accessible from more than one door entry via bedrooms or hallways. We had a water outage that turned out to be due to a road construction error; however when I contacted Chandry she was at our place within 20 min. with a goodly supply of bottled drinking water and on Mother's Day to boot! Groceries in Long Beach limited and basic so advise bringing own if you have diet issues. Our only disappointment was the lack of fresh fish/seafood. There are a couple outlets in LB and Ilawaco; but unfortunately two main ones were closed from May 7-14th and the razor clam digging suspended due to toxins.

This is the third time my family has stayed at Knole House, and each time we greatly enjoy our stay. The privacy and location by the beach are tops. The house is beautiful, and recently updated with very comfortable furniture. Our daughter loves the private "suite" upstairs. The game room lets us have family time together playing pool or basketball. The one time we encountered an issue (the hot tub wouldn't warm up), the management company had someone there within an hour or two and the problem was fixed. We look forward to staying at Knole House again in the future and would recommend it highly to anyone.

It is very rare that a vacation rental meets the description it gives online. This rental actually EXCEEDED our expectations! It is the PERFECT place for a family gathering!!! A lot of fun "toys" for the young and old. It really does have EVERYTHING you need! Our son is a chef in Seattle, and he couldn't believe how well stocked the kitchen was! The house was VERY clean and well kept. Most vacation rentals are hard to bring dogs to. It was very easy to vacation with our dogs here. Lots of private space to roam and well behaved dogs can easily be off leash here! This may be the ONLY vacation rental we will return to!

Manager's Response

This house was perfect for us. It was exactly what we were looking for. There is so much to do here. 4 days were not long enough. We will definitely be back.

Manager's Response

Really good place, one of a kind experience A+

This is our third trip to the Knoll House. We miss the touches of the prior owners who left many personal items in the house, but the house and features are still the same. You cannot ask for a better location. Close to town, but not too close. ON THE BEACH. This is one of those properties out on the dunes, Amazing. Let your daughter sleep in the turret bedroom and you have a princess for life. The Kite room for kids is amazing. Parents in the living room and kitchen drinking wine in QUIET while the kids are playing and running and going bananas in the rec room and kite room. Do you need to know than that.

Each year two couples take a week and head to the beach. We have been renting various houses for nearly 10 years. Our stay at the Knoll House was one of our favorites. The privacy and the closeness to the beach was just great. The kitchen could not have been better stocked with utensels. This made preparing meals a joy. For two couples the sleeping and bathrooms were just right. Also we had a great time with the pool table.
Thanks for the great accomodations.

This was our second stay at Knole House and it is the best beach rental we have ever had. Clean, quiet, private, unbelievably well equipped ( I wish I had this kitchen at home!) We will certainly return. Views of the ocean are wonderful, and there is a private path to the beach through a grassy meadow, The tall windows fill the house with light everywhere. Beds comfortable, linens ample, plenty of heat. A real gem.

We spent four wonderful days at the Knoele House. We went clamming and cooked a big batch of clam chowder and made fried clams. We picked up bread bowls from the Cottage Bakery. They had a decorated Christmas tree waiting for us, and kindly placed the gifts I had sent under the tree. My family was so surprised! The kitchen is incredibly well equipped, and the pool table/darts/ and kite room were a HUGE hit with my three teen sons.
