House is in very good condition. All the rooms have good furniture. Kitchen has nice appliances. Appreciated that host provided free coffee. Location is very good. It is right across from a nice beach and not too far from San Francisco. We had a very comfortable stay with our family.

Very comfortable home. Perfect for a family. Host was great. I would say it is next to highway 1 and has excellent windows and but be prepared for some traffic and lights from cars. Easy location for going to San Francisco without the big city

Perfect weekend getaway

We loved our short stay at this property. It is steps away from Montara state beach. The beach is not very safe to swim in but it is beautiful and a nice place to relax. The highlight in our opinion are numerous hiking trails within 5-10 min driving distance with amazing views of the ocean. There are also plenty of great restaurant options a short drive from the property. The house was very clean, welcoming, and comfortable. It was the perfect place return to after spending our time hiking and enjoying the beach and natural beauty of the area.

Lovely place to stay.

Comfortable place in a great location. Loved being across the street from the beach. Had a lovely stay. Only down side was we discovered the refrigerator was not working. But we were only staying 1 night and host was very responsive so I would feel comfortable booking again and trusting host would take care of any concerns. when

Magical place to stay

This property is absolutely amazing. The location is ideal. San Francisco is just a few minutes away, but the home feels secluded. Several beautiful beaches and magical hiking trails are within minutes. My favorite was Seal Cove. There was also a gorgeous hike with amazing views right behind the property. The home is so comfortable. It is large and very spacious. Everything is newly renovated, so clean, and just beautiful. We had so much fun and slept so well every night. The kitchen has everything you could need and all appliances are new. It is such a cozy, charming home. I would highly recommend.

The house is very nice, clean, and near the beach. The host was very easy to communicate with and always friendly, accommodating, understanding, and timely with responses to any issues I had. The house has nice views of the beach from the second floor. Plus, the host is pet friendly, which was key for us since we were there to compete in the World Dog Surfing Championships that weekend.
