Come to Cambria, stay at our home bordering the Fiscalini Ranch. You’ll have the unique experience of enjoying views across this natural undeveloped landscape. No telephone wires, no rooftops, just picture perfect views right down to Otter Cove and the ocean beyond. At dusk walk to the end of the front yard, sit back in the bench and watch surf crashing on the rocks as the sun sets into the blue pacific.
And if the weather turns bad, just move inside. Relax back and watch the wind and waves from the cozy living room while you sit in front of the remote controlled fireplace. Or maybe watch a little TV on the 50 inch plasma, or pick a movie from our personal film library. Or perhaps a game of chess, or good book, or play one of the many board games with your family. We’ve tried to make your stay fun and comfortable, somewhere you don’t want to leave.
But if privacy is what you want, then just move up to the Master Bedroom, crack a window, and lay back and listen to the surf. Or maybe light up your own fireplace, and watch TV on your own flat screen. Pop in your own movie of choice and call it a night! Hey, it don’t get no better than this.
Other goodies, such as decks attached to every bedroom, an inside outside room for reading, napping etc, and of course all the reg. Stuff, wireless internet, washer/dryer, microwave, CD player, and access to the two car garage with a auto opener.

White Water and Ranch Views at the Otter Cove House
Year Purchased: 2007
Why the Owner Chose Cambria
It's beautiful,quiet and most of the time it has great weather.
The Unique Benefits at this House
Walking the Ranch trails, drinking a glass of wine and watching the sunset from the bench in the front yard.
Fun tours of the Castle can be taken 7 days a week, all hours of the day even into the night. It's a blast!
Elephant seals lay around on this beach all year. The big males fight for the ladies in the early Spring, it's really something to see.
Many good restaurants and antique shops, lots of fun to walk around.
This great open preserve has many hiking trails. The best trail starts right by the house and winds along the ocean bluff for one mile north then loops back on a gravel road. If you can bring a bicyc

A very comfortable home, walks on the Fiscalini Preserve, tide pooling, the Black Cat Restaurant, visiting with family and friends. All of this and more add up to a fantastic month in Cambria. I look forward to another visit in the future.

We loved this home just steps to the ocean. It wasn't a sandy beach but tide-pooling was great. There is a wonderful bluff trail on the adjacent preserve with an easy 2-mile loop. I could have easily stayed here for a couple of months. There was an extensive movie collection and many games & books. Lots of nice little touches. The owners make a real effort to make your stay wonderful. I would definitely love to return and would recommend this to couples or families. We took one day and drove down to Morro Bay and Pismo Beach for a picnic. We had been to Hearst Castle so the second day we went to the Hearst beach park and explored Cambria; did some wine tasting and had a nice dinner in town. All in all we had a fun, relaxing stay.

CAMBRIA GUEST BOOKDec 2007What a lovely place. I enjoyed it so much spending part of my holiday at your beautiful beach house. Thanks a lot. Love from Denmark.May 2008We loved our stay at this Cambria house. Walking through the ranch and tide-pooling all right out the door-what could be better? The house is so comfortable and thanks for the fabulous film library. We’ll be back... The Bridges, UK.5/17/08Dear Richardsons: What a fabulous month we have spent in your perfect home-such a great place for us. The sun room was a perfect “studio” for my husband’s art work. The house was equipped with everything we could possibly need (thanks so much for the crockpot!) We definitely felt this was our “home away from home”. we spent a lot of time “restauranting” and tried to collect as many menus as possible. Hope you and your guests enjoy them. We will be back! Thank you so much— Murphy. 6/13-16/08Thank you Bruce and Lise for letting us use this wonderful place. This has got to be the best Father’s Day gift that we have every had. (Jerry). Thanks a lot... very, very nice.July 2008Dear Richardson Family: My two kids and I have been renting in Marine Terrace for the past 9 years-once or twice a year- and always the same home. This is our first “deviation from the norm”. Thank goodness we ventured! Lovely, warm, comfy home-nice TV’s, oh so important! Flawless wireless to say nothing of “location, location, location! (No, I am not in real estate!). Hopefully you will continue to rent out your home so that we can continue to be tenants, until my kids are out of college and I can permanently move up. Thanks so much again! K.C. August 2008Came to escape the LA August heat and to experience living in Cambria. Successful on all fronts! The house was very comfortable and well equipped. The weather was cool with morning mists-just what we wanted. The ocean walks absolutely perfect with views, pelicans and seal otters. Cambria village was a delight with good restaurants, shops and activities. Thank you for letting out your home. Anne & RobOctober 2008What an amazing week we had in your wonderful home. Ours was a list minute opportunity to travel up the coast, and your house was perfect. We missed 90 degree weather in Orange county, exchanged for the 70 degrees here in Cambria! What a blessing! It was our first family vacation with our 9-month ol
