The stay was great! Our family had an amazing time. Great views and comfortable facility. Entertainment rooms for the kids. One minor unavoidable issue was the house had a lot of noise at night from the wind causing some rattling in the fireplace upstairs and the sliding door upstairs. Not anyone’s fault at all but could bother light sleepers. Host sent out the check in and check out materials and the visitors guide which were all extremely helpful and well organized. Wonderful stay and would recommend and book again.

We are so happy to hear you had a great time! Yes there can be some sounds as it can be windy out there, you were wonderful guests and hope to host you again!
The house is in a beautiful location and the walk to the beach is not bad at all, but it’s definitely for those in good shape. The house was clean and well stocked and excellent for a large group. Our only complaint was that the pull out couches really weren’t good for sleeping and one is literally falling apart. We couldn’t find suitable bedding for the pullouts either. We ended up figuring out different sleeping arrangements. I wouldn’t include those two couches in the available beds at all. But aside from that it was really wonderful and we loved our stay! One additional thing to note is the driveway is very steep and a bit tricky to navigate - it does take two people to get in and out to guide your car, depending on which spot you get. Also the HOA doesn’t allow street parking at all - so you do have to figure out how to get your 4 cars in the driveway.

Most things were fine. The kitchen needs to be cleaned out of the old worn out pots and pans, it’s a jumble don’t know where things belong and honestly they don’t look safe to cook in. There are all kinds of utensils and spoons and little doodads that need to go.

The house was comfortable and had beautiful views. It was well stocked with kitchen, bathroom and linen items. Only a couple of call outs for the rental agency to be aware: there were fruit flies, the pool cues were missing tips and the kitchen island corner panel.was broken (unglued). Other than that, everything was in great shape.

This was our first time booking a vacation rental. The house was as listed. Beautiful clean home with plenty of amenities. The pool table in the garage was a hit. And the sunsetting into the ocean from the back porch was amazing. Thank you for amazing time celebrating a 50th birthday.

Generally clean, well outfitted and maintained. Minor issues included deteriorating hot tub cover that needed replacing, and slightly rickety grill, everything worked a the house was well supplied. Great views when the fog receded
Great house for adults and children alike. Kids room with bunks and toys was a huge plus. Garage pool table and hang zone great for evenings. Well stocked across the board. Will return!

We had a wonderful time in Dillon Beach with our group of 12! The kids really enjoyed the hot tub, PlayStation, pool table, and sharing the bunk room together. It had a nice amount of seating for meals and playing games. The house is located on top of the hill above the beach and has beautiful views of the area. While it was a little too far and steep of a walk for our littles, it only took a few minutes to drive to the beach. We also enjoyed driving into Bodega Bay to explore other beaches and do a little shopping. Nice getaway to the coast!
