Arrival at the Shoreline Chateau

Here is the beach house that we rented for three nights in Lincoln City, Oregon.  The owners call it the Shoreline Chateau.  It was built in 1934.  It has a lot of its original quaintness but has been renovated nicely.

 It has four bedrooms and sleeps 10.  It has a kitchenette upstairs with a separate living area.  The kids had their own space up there, although we hung out together downstairs a lot.  Almost every window had an ocean view.  It was very comfortable especially by the fireplace.

Here's the view when we first walked into the house.

Here is a back view of the house with its own staircase down to the beach.

 This picture was taken with my mom in mind.  I wondered how she'd feel about that sign.

 I bought this rain coat at REI.  It was worth every penny.  I loved it and will love it for years to come.

Here's my main man.

The kids were having a ball.  This is when I knew that I didn't go wrong with buying the rain boots.

We still managed to get water in our boots at times.  But they dried pretty quickly.

The foam looks like a blanket of snow.  Love that.
