Along with dinner they delivered breakfast for the next morning and boxed lunches for the boat. First night: Chicken Alfredo Pasta, Caesar Salad, Asparagus, crackers an salmon dip, with fresh Marion berry pie and Tillamook Ice cream. Breakfast: Assorted pastries, fresh fruit, yogurt and granola, orange juice. Boxed Lunches: Fresh made sandwiches, apples, assorted chip variety, homemade cookies. Second night dinner: Fresh salmon, twice baked potatoes, mixed grilled veggies, caprese skewers, homemade cookies, cheesecake. Kate's arrived at our rental on time both nights as scheduled and setup everything. The food was hot, fresh, and delicious. I can't stress enough how excellent the food was. Every member in our party liked it all. The salmon was amazing. It was so nice not to worry about food after long days on the river. Thanks to Kate's for helping make this an excellent trip.

We had a buffet with appies to start. Food- was exceptional. The maple smoked salmon was awesome. The seasonal veggies were not the usual carrots and broccoli. It has squash, asparagus and green beans. The prime rib at the carving station was cooked in a pan while you waited if you wanted it well done. The food was as good as or better than the food I have had at 4 and 5 star restaurants in Vancouver. Staff- the service was amazing. They set up the buffet with nice tablecloths and decoration. We supplied the plates and silverware but they did the entire cleanup. They were friendly and one staff member took the time to help my nephew get seconds. I couldn't have asked for more. Vivienne took the time to meet with us before hand and we talked via phone and email. She even sent us a list of potential suppliers for our linens and tableware.

I reached out to The Natural Nook and spoke with Connie. I explained this to her and she put together the most beautiful arrangement incorporating pumpkins and beautiful fall flowers.

Connie took our conversation to heart and I can't say enough! The Natural Nook is highly recommended! Connie certainly understood the importance of my request. Thank you Connie!

If I could select a zero star rating I would. I live in Gearhart and expect a higher level of…read moreservice in product and in customer relations. Neither were achieved with this florist. My boyfriend lives out of state and ordered, online, what he said would 'knock my socks off'. He assured me for the money he spent I should be prepared to be swept away. He was right. I was swept away in disbelief at the lack of quality in the flowers, balloons and candies delivered from Natural Nook. I received the 'lack lustre' flowers which was odd to begin with and horrible as far as quality. It had 7, yes 7, older, opened and already dropping red roses and filler carnations. Not big, full, fluffy carnations but tiny ones added last minute to cheap bouquets. Which is what this was. 7 roses and cheap filler carnations? What is the specific name of that bouquet? But wait,,,,,,,, Next came the childish balloons that were tied to the vase. Not only were they colors you might send to 6 year olds birthday party but they were not tightly filled, bouncy or new looking. FYI, Some balloons are stored with a sort of powder so they do not stick together. This was not powder but actual dust!!! Dust!!! I included a photo or two after I dragged my fingers across them. And within 12 hours were deflated and not due to hot or cold temps but because they were so old! As though they had been in a shop window display WAY too long. And to add insult they delivered a box of candy from Bruce's Candy Kitchen in Cannon Beach that had old, broken, discolored chocolates. I looked on the box to check the expired date but it did not have a date stamp! I assume it is because the candy was made before expiration dates were required on food. I have been a customer of Bruce's for 30 years and have never seen broken or discolored product offered in their store. The only reason this florist received 1 star is for the Teddy Bear that was included with the other items was not old, dusty or outdated. When I contacted my boyfriend and told him how awful this delivery was he called them to talk about the problems after seeing the evidence through the pictures. The woman he spoke with said to be sure and tell me how sorry they were but no corrected order. No dozen roses minus filler carnations, fresh candy or at least new balloons??? C'mon. You're sorry? I think my boyfriend is sorry for ordering from them and I will NEVER use them to convey how much I care for someone. Natural Nook obviously cares nothing for quality OR customer service. They could have driven to Safeway and bought the $14.99 long stem roses and added their own vase and baby's breath as an apology. Or a gift certificate for Bruce's Candy Kitchen. Or a dozen NEW balloons. All of those options would have shown some level of care for me as a customer. I have included photos of the absolute horror of a disastrous delivery.

This is what you get when you visit Grandview B & B. Funky, old, and in those two things - charm. Sharlene is someone who has lived a nice long life and probably has many stories to tell. She is usually the woman who greets you when you arrive. Be patient, as it takes her a bit to get to the front door. Also, if you come down to the lobby area after you have checked in and try to talk to Sharlene, make sure she can see who you are. I watched a few times as guests came down the stairs to call out to her about a question and she can't move her neck as easily to know who she is talking to. :) Be kind and patient with this wonderful lady. We stayed in the Treetops Room which has a balcony where you can look out over the river and see the old Flavel home. And you can even spy the Goonies house in the far off distance. Breakfast is served at 7:30, 8:30 or 9:30 and you get to choose which one works best for you. Bagels, smoked salmon and chocolate muffins! YUM! The sweet chef was wonderfully sweet and we felt very special eating in the closed off room. If you want 1000 thread count sheets or modern amenities, this is not where you will find them. Come for the experience and the charm of staying in a very old house. I love this place and am making this a yearly traditional stop on our way to Cannon Beach.

Our room, called "Cloud Nine" came with a lovely view of the Astoria-Megler Bridge and Columbia River sunset! And in the morning, we sat in the private breakfast nook in a turret with a gorgeous view of the river!! Breakfast included fresh fruit, juice, coffee, salmon and cream cheese on a cheddar bagel, and chocolate muffins. Staying at the Grandview was a highlight of our trip, a wonderful surprise find!!

Exceptional friendly service beyond any thing I could ever imagine from this family owned business…read more Laura and Sarah are each helpful over the phone and in person. I had difficulty picking a Yelp category for this business as they are a tool and equipment rental but also do camping, clamming, party and baby supplies. "You can't take a gun on the airplane" I just hate it when people tell me what I can't do. "but it's not a gun, it's a CLAM gun" a clam tube, a clam rifle, or sucker. A clam gun is about two and a half feet long and will not fit in a carry on suit case, nor will it fit in the overhead compartment nor under a seat. Besides I didn't own a clam gun and the cost to purchase one on ebay or Amazon.com is around $50 and I needed two. The cost to check a bag on the flight is $25. So it was beginning to look like a very expensive Zen clamming trip. Ever since I saw the Youtube video, Monster clams https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EBxERHMUwrA I've wanted to try clamming on Klipsan Beach in Washington. I had booked the flight, booked the condo, and even signed up for the clam digging "lesson". But every one I talked to in Long Beach, Washington told me there was NO ONE who rented clam guns so even if I purchased two up there I would have to leave them behind. After much searching, I did find a web site for All Rents (they say they are updating the website). http://allrentsinc.webs.com/ Laura was very helpful on the phone and said yes, they did rent clam guns. I reserved two guns for the weekend we needed and slept much better knowing I had all my ducks in a row for a great weekend. When we went to pick up the diggers we were reminded that we needed to purchase shellfish licenses, which we did in Washington. The cost...for the two diggers $14. The memories...Priceless.
