There was plenty of space, the separate man cave was good for privacy, and being dog friendly was number one on the list of positives for us. Thank you for a wonderful stay!

The house was comfortable and the view was lovely. It was easy to get to the beach and the neighborhood was quiet. We ran into a few small problems such as running out of garbage bags, hand soap and TP in one bathroom. I was surprised that the host didn't respond when I messaged. We figured out workarounds and enjoyed a comfortable weekend.

The host Jonathan was welcoming and easy to communicate with. We appreciated the text before we checked in which included a guide to the house. The house is located on a beautiful golf course and we enjoyed the lovely views of the water. The rooms were spacious and the house was clean. We had a lovely weekend and wish we would have extended our stay!

We had our whole family stay together for a multi-generational get together. The keyboard, guitar, arcade game table, pool table, dart board, hot tub, barbecue, were fabulous entertainment for all of us. And the views! Spectacular! The private path to the beach was a real gem as well. We’re so thankful we got to stay in this beautiful place together. Thank you!

This spacious and clean house with a beautiful ocean view was exactly as advertised. We were a group of 6 adults, 1 toddler and two small dogs, and all had a great time. We enjoyed the walk to the beach, as well as the short drive to nearby beaches, hikes and eateries. Would return in a heartbeat!

This house has an excellent view of Bodega Bay and is just minutes away from Doran Beach. We were unable to find the five minute walk to Doran Beach trail, so it took us fifteen minutes to walk there. The neighborhood is very nice and is in the golf course literally. Three of our party enjoyed the golf course and we all enjoyed dinner at the golf course restaurant. There were nine of us and I think the house was large enough for us. There were plenty of activities to do at the house as advertised. Overall, we enjoyed our stay.

We had a family gathering for an anniversary with three generations and two dogs, and we all were comfortable. There was lots of room for the whole family to be together in, as there’s a wonderful, light filled high ceilinged living room. The views of Bodega Bay are just beautiful!! The best beach and tide pool areas are so nearby. The development is built around a golf course, and we are not golfers, but having the large greens around and behind the house is pleasant. It’s very quiet and peaceful. The hot tub holds 4-6 very comfortably. The house is older and comfortably worn, and suited us to a “t.”

We had a wonderful time with our family. The living area/kitchen is awesome. Wonderful views. Needs a real good deep clean!! The kitchen/pantry are well stocked but there isn’t any room to put our things (food, etc). There were several items that didn’t work ie toaster, toaster oven. We also misunderstood the man cave situation. You have to go outside to access. There were 9 of us and we were counting in using the 3rd bathroom which was in the man cave. No access from inside the main house. Hot tub buttons don’t work so we couldn’t adjust the temp. Also not very clean. Lots of sand in the bottom and kinda had a green tinge to the water. The house needs some upgrading. And a real good cleaning!!!The host was very responsive when we had issues!!
