About Brian Mann
Brian and Leslie fell in love with Baywood Park 11 years ago, when they happened upon this wonderful hidden gem. Nestled on a little peninsula jutting out into the tidal estuary at the south end of Morro Bay. Surrounded by state parks and with the sound of waves crashing in the distance, this has been our most cherished refuge and source of peace. We are so glad we can share a bit of this special place with our guests.
Brian Mann purchased this Cottage in 2003
Why Brian Mann chose Los Osos
Close, easy stroll, to the little village downtown of Baywood Park, close to the Bay on both sides. A quiet street, with wonderful neighbors.
What makes this Cottage unique

The beach house was perfect for me and my husband. We were looking for a calm and quiet place to relax and recharge before heading home to our busy lives. The house was cute, comfortable, clean, and quiet! Perfect for what we wanted!

Everything from the welcome gate to the well equipped kitchen was set up to make a guest feel welcome and well cared for. The lovely exterior lighting ushered me in in the evening and complimented the lights inside. The table near the entry was perfect for my morning coffee and my evening wine. The bed was wonderfully comfortable, making it hard to want to get up and going in the morning. When I return to the area I will definitely be looking to stay here again.

Kitchen had hot plate and hot skillet. I was able to cook almost anything. Barbecue pit was enough to cook a few steaks with corn and baked potatoes. Microwave and refrigerator big enough to hold food for our stay. I really enjoyed the cottage. It was comfortable for 2 adults. It was walking distance from the water and several places to eat. We really enjoyed the local bar and restaurants.

We just loved this sacred space! There’s such a great energy here and the comfiest bed! All the details and character of this cottage made our stay very magical. We will definitely stay again! The hosts were easy to communicate with and they had the cottage stocked with everything we needed for an effortless and relaxing stay.

Cozy Cottage Getaway

My husband and I attended a wedding this past weekend in San Luis Obispo. After looking at several hotel options in the SLO area, I stumbled on this little gem. For half the price of staying at your basic chain hotel, we got so much more for our money. The cottage is charming and neat as a pin. The king size bed was incredibly comfortable, and we opened the windows and the french doors to get a lovely cross breeze. The kitchen is small, but had pretty much everything we needed (the Dutch door was a nice touch)! The bathroom is a good size and has a claw foot tub!
The garden is charming with lots of privacy (even though you're in the back of the lot behind another house). We loved sitting outside on the loungers at the end of the day with a glass of wine while listening to the birds chirping away.
Pretty much perfect. I would definitely come back since I really love the area. When you park in front of the main house it doesn't look special, but don't be discouraged, the cottage in the back is a little jewel.
Showed the place to a friend who ended up staying at the Hampton Inn and she wished that she had found it first!

If you want to just kick back and relax, it's perfect, if you want to explore one of the most beautiful areas in the world, you have a perfect home base. Great restaurants within easy walk or drive. Fresh Ocean air. Friendly people everywhere you go. Small mountain town type atmosphere right on the Bay.
