The property provided just the place for us and our pups to be able to enjoy a relaxing weekend! Being able to walk out the back sliders to the yard and enjoy the sounds of the ocean was just what we needed.
This home is simply stunning! The views from the backyard are incredible! The kitchen has every cooking gadget you’ve ever wanted! We really enjoyed this home and it was hard to leave even for a hike!!
It was great , clean and comfortable and close to everything but in its own nook for quiet ! Will come again. We had a few hick ups but they were fixed pretty efficiently
We loved this place! We had the benefit of being the first renters and most everything seemed new. This was our first time seeing the Northern California coast and this place didn’t disappoint. We were just a short drive to restaurants and the general store and within walking distance to a breathtaking section of the coast. Come here to relax, eat good food, and watch some killer sunsets. Even our dog couldn’t help but unwind with some long naps!

If you’re looking to stay at shelter cover please stay here! Every time my wife and I walked around the house we kept saying, “This house is perfect.” Everything flowed and worked together. The kitchen had everything we needed. The furniture was comfortable as was the bed. They even provided wrapped toiletries in case you forgot them. As soon as you open the sliding glass doors, you can hear the ocean. And you can’t beat the views from the backyard to the kitchen or the living room.I could go on and on, but this rental was pretty much perfect and if I’d come back again, I would definitely stay here.
Quelques jours de repos au calme , après la traversée des USA. L'endroit est isolé, sans réseau téléphonique, avec une belle vue sur l'océan et les couchers de soleil. Maison de plein pied, confortable et adaptée pour recevoir 4 personnes.
