Why Not Tour A National Historical Landmark This Holiday?
A National Historic Landmark, Marble House is located at 596 Bellevue Ave., Newport, Rhode Island. Open daily and decorated for the holidays until January 4, 2009, this summer beach cottage is a favorite of Beach House Finds. The Newport Beach house was built between 1888 and 1892 for Mr. and Mrs. William K. Vanderbilt, as a summer house, or "cottage", as Newporters called them. Marble House was a social and architectural landmark in Newport's legendary resort of opulent stone palaces. The cost of the house was reported to be $11 million, of which $7 million was spent on 500,000 cubic feet of marble. Upon its completion, Mr. Vanderbilt gave the house to his wife, Alva Vanderbilt a leading hostess in Newport society as a 39th birthday present.
On December 27, 2008 you can spend the Holiday Evening at The Breakers with a leisurely self-guided evening tour through the historical landmark as you enjoy live holiday music and holiday sweets, eggnog and cider.
Tickets are $25.00 for Adults and can be purchased online from

Why Is Geogia On Beach House Finds Mind?
Think live oaks hung with Spanish moss that form canopies all over the island. Owning a three-bedroom three-bath house one block from the beach that is a 15-minute drive over the causeway to Brunswick, and another hour and 15 minutes to the airport in Savannah, Georgia.
Beach house finds along with the New York Times found this June Bright Cottage which is neo-traditional with the necessary modern comforts as well as the charm of beach cottages of the past. The cottage has two porches, which wrap from front to back and are accessible from every room, think hammocks, swings, and rocking chairs from which to capture spectacular views of ocean and marsh.

Kayak tours, dolphin tours and ghost tours of the local light house. Plus the island’s restaurants and boutiques are within walking distance of the house. This is truly a beach house find!

A Fall Midwest Beach Table
In the fall bring the beach indoors (and use a floor-to-ceiling view of that glorious lake as a backdrop). This setting celebrates the warmer tones found in the dunes only in the fall – celadon greens and rich taupes. Bundles of dried dunegrass anchor the table and create height, with natural stone vases and votive holders adding a soft glow. Sprinkle a collection of local shells around the place settings for a personal touch; the effect is mimicked in a charming seashell-shaped pitcher. The ceramic European dishware in hydrangea green is perfect for a relaxed alfresco brunch or lunch, with a simple, flat piece of driftwood used as a serving platter. Stylist Robert Michael Northington says “It’s a specialness that can only be found in communities by water – an easy, breezy way of living and entertaining that’s artistic, creative and relaxed.”

The tourists have returned back to home so shopping and walking the boardwalk is a shoppers delight. Fashionista and designers a like know that Venice Beach is the place to find one of a kind: art objects, hats, jewlry, clothes and accessories.
