Location was perfect: close to the beach with beautiful views! Kitchen well stocked. Hosts responsive and welcoming. Our family of five- parents and 3 adult children- enjoyed our stay very much. If you arrive at night, be aware there are very curvy roads on the way there. The sky is amazing- we were shocked at how well you can see the stars so close to San Francisco!

The house was great. Every room has an ocean view. The game room was great for the kids while it rained. The walk from the house to the beach was beautiful as well. House was well kept, beds nice, kitchen had all the things needed, bathroom necessities were provided and the family room had games and puzzles. We did experience ants during the rain but there was ant spray and they went away after the rain.

Our extended family (8 adults 2 kids) spent 4 nights here for Christmas 2025. The house was really great: a nice big living room w plenty of sitting space, a gas fireplace, and views of the ocean, a fully equipped kitchen, a large dining table that fit all of us. All the beds were comfortable. And the entertainment options were great with ping pong, foosball, shuffleboard and lots of board games. The house was a 10min walk to the beach. All in all E highly recommend this rental. Oh and they had a little treasure hunt for us when we arrived that the kids really liked.

Thanksgiving Stay at KnotACare

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: A group of six of us (4 adults and 2 children) stayed at KnotACare over the Thanksgiving weekend. Overall, the house was excellent, and we had a wonderful stay. Its location was extremely close to the beach; in addition, there were good ocean views from the house. The house was very clean, and the kitchen was well stocked. The management staff was very responsive to the one issue we had (the gas fireplace did not work, because the gas had been turned off).

Good stay overall… many outlets in the house didn’t work or sparked if we tried to plug stuff in. The walk to beach was tough for our older family members with physical ailments so we ended up driving them down to the public area at Lawson’s landing, which cost 15 per car to park for the day.
