This cottage is special. Yes it's quirky but it was very clean, it has no AC so it heats up in the afternoon but who cares? Go outside and sit so close to the ocean you can feel it and taste it when the tides coming in and those waves are splashing. We saw so many sra birds, and an Otter on our last day. The location just cannot be beat. Rent it and feel the healing power of the Ocean.

This house "grew on us" and we ended up really enjoying it. All of the 10/10 ratings are on the mark. The view is great. The Friscalini Ranch Preserve is beautiful. Try Linn's restaurant. One caveat that I was surprised no one mentioned, maybe because of the mold disclaimer that required initials, We experienced no mold, but there was a mildew odor that I had a reaction to. Allergy medication and airing the place out took care of the discomfort.We would go back. It's delightful.

This place is fabulous and if I win the lottery I am making an offer. I watched otters and dolphins frolic while the birds flew by. Everything is perfect, I wish I could come back soon but it will have to wait for now.

We loved this beach house in Cambria. We love the beautiful cove & the unmatched view. It's close to everything in the area & fully worth taking at least a day to stay home & enjoy the beach & house. We will definitely stay here again next time we visit Cambria.

A truly special house

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: A pretty perfect week in Cambria. Rental was easy - clear instructions, easy key pick-up, etc. House itself was beyond expectations. Staying at this house felt like being let in on a secret - such a unique and special destination. Cambria itself is easy to love, full of beauty. 5 hours away from LA, might as well have been 5000.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: A piece of my heart remains at the Oceanfront Cottage. It literally sits on the edge of the ocean. The pounding of the waves lulled me to sleep each night. We had several encounters with deer and wild turkeys in the neighborhood, which made the stay extra special. The cottage itself is quirky, creative, cozy, and has everything you will need. Highly, highly recommend!
