We had a lovely stay here - the place was clean and looked like the photos. I liked that they had a binder with suggestions for what to do in the area - we took their recommendation for a specific hike in Montana de Oro and enjoyed the view from the top.The town is small and quiet, but very cute and has some great bird watching. Perfect for the mini vacation that we were hoping for.Thanks for a great stay!

The cottage is located in a great area making it easy to explore the surrounding neighborhoods and the Morro Bay area. It’s also close to Pismo Beach. The cottage was my granddaughter’s favorite part of the trip. Leslie was very helpful when I had questions. Would definitely stay there again.

The property was in a good location for our visiting five cities surrounding Los Osos and visiting a friend in Los Osos. It was hard to find after dark as you have to turn into a dirt parking lot with not much in the way of lighting. But we figured it out. The main bed was comfortable. The chair bed was not. Cute kitchen. It was what we needed for our stay...

My husband and I visited with our dogs and were not disappointed. The cottage was exactly as described, and the location was perfect for a 4th of July weekend away from all the fireworks. It was quiet, convenient, and clean. We enjoyed our stay and would definitely return again next year.

Quiet and close!

We passed through on the way down from further north in the state, and this was a great option for us. A small, quaint, and clean stop for a few days. Close to bay, walking to all of the local restaurants and shops in this sleepy beach town + Morro Bay adjacent for beaches. Close to state parks and mountain biking + lots of friendly people and dogs.

Great stay and so quaint!

Great stay! Cottage #5 was so cute and so accessible to the town. Easy access to kayak (we brought our own kayaks) and the local restaurants and shops. Easy to get to many places (we went wine tasting, hiking, biking, kayaking). Cottage 5 has a fire pit, too (wood burning, not propane). The store across the way has wood for sale! Overall, a great stay and very relaxing-would love to come back!

The cottage was exactly as described / photographed. Checkin was easy (we received a door code the day before check-in), and having a dedicated parking spot really streamlined the load-in. The entire house was clean and well laid-out. Communication with our host was pleasant and prompt, and they were very accommodating. The area felt very safe, and we loved walking around the local shops, cafes and restaurants. The farmer's market on Monday is worth your time as well. I'd certainly stay here again!
