There are Lots of amazing restaurants nearby, as well as stunning coastal hikes, you might enjoy renting kayaks and touring the harbor, or you can rent bikes in Half

We are very close to Fitzgerald Marine Reserve (Tidepools), downtown Half Moon Bay, great shops and restaurants, amazing local hiking trails.

Public transportation and Ubers/Lyfts are scarce, so you will definitely want a car! We don't recommend our place for young children or adults with mobility issues since there are two wide steps inside the home and a staircase out front leading to the front door. Please only book if you are certain everyone in your party can safely navigate the stairs.

We hope you enjoy your stay.

This VRBO is absolutely stunning and flawlessly clean! From the moment you walk in, the bright, inviting atmosphere makes you feel instantly at ease. Every single detail has been meticulously thought out, and every possible need has been fully attended to. I am extra picky about cleanliness and very sensitive to perfumes/scents, this home met me with an impeccably clean state and no detectable fragrance, just fresh clean air. There was no sign of previous occupants and I didn’t find one single thing that I would change. We always try to leave things better than we found it, but we can’t improve on perfection.

What a lovely little place! It was the perfect location to go north into San Francisco and go south down the coast! We took a very short drive to Fitzgerald Reserve every morning and drank our coffee watching the ocean. Regan was the perfect host-incredibly responsive and made the check-in and check-out process a breeze. I would stay here again in a heartbeat!

This was wonderful for our stay to the area & suited our needs perfectly. Super clean and convenient to San Francisco, Oracle Park (highly recommend, great experience there!), Muir Woods, and many other areas of interest. Very responsive host which is so important.

My sister and I had a wonderful stay at this perfect cottage and quiet location. Everything from the moment you walked in was exactly as pictured in the photos (actually, even better in person!). Super clean kitchen, bathroom, bedrooms, and outdoor patio. The place was stocked well with more than we needed. We loved the location being so close to the coast, restaurants, etc... Definitely, would consider staying here again. Also, easy booking and communication with owner!

Wonderful coastal cottage

Regan's cottage is the perfect getaway for anyone seeking a coastal getaway. The location is divine, one block away from the ocean. It is well appointed, super clean, private and comfortable. The bed is perfect for a good nights rest and if you open the window you will hear the waves lulling you to sleep.The cottage is about a two minute drive to Montara Beach, 5 minutes from Pillar Point Harbor and 10 minutes away from beautiful downtown Half Moon Bay. The small town vibe, excellent dining choices and recreation opportunities make this a wonderful place to stay. I hope you enjoy your stay as much as I did!Thank you Regan!
