A beach house is a uniquely special place -- a place where memories of friendship, family and wonderful times are created within the timeless sound of the surf. At the Beach House: A Guest Book is designed to save some of those memories. ''A guest book is a story told by many people,'' the book's creator, Sandy Gingras, writes in her Introduction. ''It's full of weather and salt and breezes. It's full of what the tide was and when the sun shone. It's who ate over... It's what we ate. It's little things mostly, daily things. But it adds up to a Life. You'd be surprised how it does. And what is ordinary today becomes a treasure over time.'' In the book's pages Gingras gives reluctant writers a gentle nudge with some suggestions, and blank pages allow for those guests with longer comments to share. An envelope at the back of the book provides a home for small mementos. At the Beach House: A Guest Book is the perfect accessory for the beach home, whether it's a week-long vacation rental or a generations-old family beach house. One of seven in author/illustrator Sandy Gingras' popular and inspirational ''How To Live'' series of gift books, the guest book embraces her themes of simplicity, appreciation, love and happiness. ''We hope that this book is more than a record of who came to visit. We hope it's a journal of thoughts and stories, a scrapbook of memories. We left empty places for photos or doodles, a pocket for a ticket stub or a feather... there's room for thankfulness to,'' she writes in the Introduction.

Customer Rating:
Summary: Wow! Just what we were looking for!
Comment: Bought this for a gift when we visited a friend's beach house--has specific topics (weather, activities, who else was there) as sometimes it's hard to know what to say!
Customer Rating:
Summary: guest book review
Comment: This was a gift for a friend and they love it. They had previously purchased a calendar that matches the guest book (which I was unaware of) and they were thrilled to have this matching guest book.
Customer Rating:
Summary: Unique guest book perfect for a beach house
Comment: I love that this book has a unique format. Instead of the standard guest book with lines for each visitor, this book has separate pages for each guest, and includes spaces for guests to fill in with tips for what they liked best, what the weather was like and other cute things. I think my guests will really enjoy reading past entries as will I.
Customer Rating:
Summary: Great book for Condo
Comment: Love the book, I have it in my condo and all the guests sign it!
Customer Rating: 
Summary: content
Comment: The format of each page is not the best for writing a synopsis of vacation stay at a vacation cottage.
