This was more of a store than a museum, but it was interesting to see how cranberries are grown, and harvested.

If you're interested in the cranberry process, this is a great place with a nice gift shop. It's very informative and the clerk at the shop was very nice.

I love the cranberry museum. I insist we visit every time we go to Long Beach. I stock up on my yearly supply of pepper jelly and wooden cranberry Christmas tree strings. I learned a little something about cranberry farming and the staff there are always very kind.

The cranberry growing and harvesting industry is potentially quite profitable and has an interesting history on both sides of the Columbia River. Though the processing takes place out of the area, there are cranberry bogs to see as you drive around. There is a store devoted to cranberry products and other places sell some things in Long Beach. This museum... More

This is a very small museum with a few interesting exhibits. You can walk out among the cranberry bogs and there a few interesting interpretive signs but it needs some help to be really interesting. The museum is very small but interesting. So if it is a rainey day and you need to kill some time, check it out, but... More

A small musuem that is well laid out for understanding the history of cranberry growing. Comes with tour of a growing bog and a demonstration of harvesting. Small sandwich counter on premises. Worth the time, about an hour plus.

We were in Long Beach during the Cranberry Festival and enjoyed going to the museum/gift shop and adjacent cranberry bog. We'd never seen a bog before and we were interested and eager to see the harvesting taking place in a flooded bog. We watched workers in their waders gathering (herding) the berries to the side of the bog where they... More

This delightful museum is free and makes a fun stop while exploring the Longbeach peninsula. The gift shop is wonderful and offers many, many cranberry related products. The museum is surrounded by fields of cranberries and seeing how they are grown is interesting.

Small, but packed with artifacts and interesting historical tidbits. Learn about the cranberry's role in regional and national history, including feeding troops during WW II, and how the wartime manpower shortage led to advances in production techniques. Self-guided field tour is very spare, but just right for kids with short attention spans. Sampling a small batch cranberry soda is a... More
