This is a beautiful old home run by a wonderful host ! Having never stayed in an actual bed and breakfast before I wasn’t sure what to expect. But Charlotte blew us away!! By the time we left after just 3 nights I felt like she was a new friend! She provides a full breakfast each morning but we were just using the house as overflow accommodations for a cabin we have in ocean park, so we declined breakfast for the 1st two days. But Charlotte insisted on making a peach cobbler to send with us the 1st day and then apple dumplings the second day. This is in addition to sending a plate of cookies the day we checked in since we wouldn’t be around as much. The 3rd day we stayed for breakfast and Charlotte invited our adult children to come (they were staying in the family cabin). They loved meeting Charlotte and her sweet pups! I could go on and on with details about how she made our stay the best ever. The house is incredibly clean and the spacious rooms are decorated with antiques and family pictures and culture. Every room has its own private bath which is a welcome bonus. It has a huge porch wrapping around to relax on no matter the weather. Charlotte actually lives in a cottage just behind the house so you don’t have to worry about bothering her with your comings and goings, but I’d bet she’d pop in to say hi and see if you needed anything. |We will definitely be passing her info on to other family and friends!!|The only small drawback are the stairs to the upper rooms are quite steep- however there is a wonderful suite on the 1st floor to remedy that! The location is walking distance to the beach and to Jacks Country store - where if they don’t have it, you don’t need it! It’s a must visit! |I honestly am not certain that I want everyoe to find out about this hidden gem in ocean park! I’m afraid she’ll be booked a year out! |Thank you Charlotte for making our...
Read moreI stayed at the George Johnson house for a few days in September. Your host Charlotte’s 1913 Craftsman house in Ocean Park is an absolute gem. From the moment you arrive, Charlotte makes you feel genuinely welcome—her warmth and hospitality set the tone for a truly relaxing stay. She’s also a wonderful cook, and her homemade breakfast is a highlight you won’t want to miss.||The house itself is full of charm and character, beautifully maintained, period decorated, and perfectly situated, just a couple of blocks from the beach. The quiet, laid-back vibe of Ocean Park makes it easy to unwind in your room, the welcoming living room, out on the wrap-around porch, or in the garden, with Dahlias and roses blooming in season. Head out to explore the peninsula, the restaurants and vacation spots in Long Beach, or the Lewis and Clark Center.||If you’re looking for a peaceful getaway in a historic home with a fantastic host, this is the...
Read moreWould highly recommend staying at the George Johnson House! Charlotte is the most gracious host who went above and beyond to ensure I had the best vacation. She even taught me how to go clamming and how to clean the clams! Charlotte knows all the hidden gems on the peninsula and is more than willing to share. She's also an amazing cook and baker! She made me a side of peach cobbler for breakfast! Although the house is gorgeous and so comfortable, Charlotte and her dogs make it such an inviting home. Falling asleep to the sound of ocean waves and waking up to the smell of the fresh ocean breeze was incredibly relaxing. I might have gone for the clam festival but my stay at the George Johnson House was the absolute highlight of my trip. To anyone looking for the perfect getaway, I highly recommend staying at the George...
