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.

This is our second stay here and this time around we were able to explore downtown Los Osos, and the surrounding area. The weather was beautiful at this time of year. One day of rain but we were out exploring. The cottage is nicely appointed with all of the items needed to enjoy a home cooked meal. The bed is very comfortable. There are video to view also and books to read. Very relaxing, quient ,and peaceful. A great place to get away from it all.

Adorable “shabby chic” cottage in a great location. Had everything we needed for a relaxing getaway. The bed was super comfy & the gas fireplace took the chill off the morning's cooler temp. Walk to Elfin Forest and a short drive to parks for hiking, restaurants, and entertainment.

Very close to Morro Bay or Los Osos waterfront. Small restaurants and lots of charm.
The king bed was great and so we're the furnishings.

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.
