We loved our stay at this beautiful, comfortable home. The kitchen and bathrooms were the most stocked of any home we have stayed in. The bed was very comfortable upstairs, high quality towels. Lots of soaps and cleaning supplies. Easy self check-in, lovely views, comfortable living room. You can walk to the beach. I can't say enough wonderful things about this house. Highly recommend.

Lovely cottage in a quiet neighborhood in Salmon Creek. The house was spotless and the kitchen fully stocked and well set-up for cooking meals. The upstairs bedroom has a balcony and a view of the bay. The enclosed yard is very private and peaceful. This is a great spot for couples or a family getaway. The host is friendly and responsive. I highly recommend!

About the host

Hosted by Pam Hill / Property Manager PMR25-0066

Host profile image
Purchased cabin in need of love and attention in 2001 to follow my dream of one day living at the beach. Completed remodel in 2005 while living full time until recently. I am now willing to share my labor of love so that I may spend more time with my two beautiful grandchildren and daughter. I have been so blessed in my life, and 'Grace at the Sea' is a reflection of all the love in my heart.

Why they chose this property

Prior to buying this cottage, I would walk my dog at Salmon Creek (when dogs were still allowed) every weekend to unwind from the stress of Corporate America. I retired, started project and never looked back.

What makes this property unique

You will feel at home the moment you walk in the front door. The beach, the dunes, the creek............it is all the best Sonoma Coast has to offer.
