Great, pet friendly place. Numerous of the houses in the area had dogs with them as well which was nice to see them around. House was clean and had ample supplies for our stay. Would book this again in the future if returning to the Watercolor area.
Good location, clean and comfortable, plenty of towels and thanks for allowing my doggies stay too.

Thanks so much, Melissa! I’m really happy to hear you enjoyed the location and found everything clean and comfy. We love hosting pups, so I’m glad your doggies had a great stay too! Hope to welcome you all back again soon!
This property was great. The host was very easy to contact and the little backyard was perfect for our pup! Will definitely book again with them!

Thanks so much, Kylie! We’re so happy you and your pup enjoyed the stay — that little backyard is one of our favorite spots too! It was a pleasure hosting you, and we’d love to have you back anytime!
My wife and I loved this place. The area was so cute and perfect. We had everything we needed and were just a quick 3 minute bike ride to the beach entrance.

Thank you so much for your kind words, Steven! We're thrilled to hear you enjoyed your stay and look forward to hosting you again in the future. Safe travels!
Stayed here with my husband and dogs, and it was wonderful. The home was fantastic and very comfortable. Also within walking distance of beach and restaurants. We will definitely be back.
Very pleased with everything. Great location, short walk to the beach. Close to many of our favorite restaurants. We had 3 adults and 2 kids, ages 9 and 14. Plenty of room for all of us. Loved the pool area. Great spot for a family with younger kids.
Home was modest but comfortable, in a central location, and just a short walk from the beach. Back yard was small but sufficient. Could have used a few more items in the kitchen (chopping board, cheese grater, etc.), but overall it was pretty well stocked. Neighborhood was nice and quiet, on a cul de sac off 30A. Would rent again!
The property was as advertised--spacious for our needs--well located for a great beach. Booking, entering and leaving were all seamless. Property could use a little more attention to being cleaned and ready--upon arrival a couple of remotes lacked batteries and front door needs cleaning
We loved the convenience of being able to walk across the street to the beach and we were just a short drive to Seaside, Santa Rosa, and other areas. The rental was just as described. It worked great for us. The rental company/owner were very quick to respond when we reached out to them. We’d stay here again!
Cool little cottage in an awesome community with pool and sidewalks and easy access to the beach and 30a bike trails. Fantastic location and responsive property management. Pictures and descriptions are accurate. The cottage was pretty basic but the kitchen was sufficiently stocked. Could use some maintenance and deep cleaning. Master bed was comfortable but the bunks were uncomfortable for the older kids (teens).

Thank you, Michelle, for your thoughtful review! We're so glad you enjoyed the location, community amenities, and found the property management responsive. It's great to hear the kitchen met your needs and that the master bed was comfortable. We appreciate your feedback about the bunks and the need for some maintenance and deep cleaning. We'll be sure to address these areas to improve the experience for future guests. We hope to welcome you back soon!
We love BeachBum hideaway! It is our third time staying there. Thank you to the Hoffmanns for helping us out during our Fall break predicament! We really appreciate it. The only issue were several lightbulbs were out. Other than that, fantastic stay and highly recommend it to others!
House was nice. Great location. We used the Santa Rosa Public Beach access. It had a wooden ramp that went all the way to the beach. It was great for our beach wagon. Would also be good if you had someone with limited mobility or in a wheelchair.
This property worked out great for what we were looking for We could bike ride along 30A each day, the pool was nice, it was a short walk to the beach, and had a yard for our dog. We will probably choose this spot again for our next trip. Also - it was one of the cleanest rentals we have stayed at.
This 2-bedroom house is an 8-minute walk away from Seagrove Place public beach. It is comfortably furnished and has a fenced backyard. It offers a Keurig and a traditional coffee maker. Both bedrooms and the living room feature smart TVs.
While the property supplies one detergent packet and limited toilet paper & paper towels, they aren't high quality. And no dryer sheets. But overall, a great place to stay!
We really enjoyed our stay at BeachBum Hideaway! The property was very clean and updated. The location is awesome, steps away from the pool and a very short walk to the beach.
The space was very clean and spacious. We had every thing we needed for the stay. Justin was very prompt when answering questions. Overall, great stay and will definitely book again!
We have in the past rented a condo nearby. This year we decided to take our dog and our teenage sons best friend. The house is a short walk to the beach, Tom Thumb, and other shops and restaurants. It was clean, well maintained, and our dog loved the fenced in area so he could roam freely. The pool was fantastic and relaxing. We had no complaints with the property.
Very spacious, clean, and pretty close to the public beach. Would definitely stay again!
The rental process was really easy. We enjoyed the convenience of being able to rent equipment like bikes and beach chairs through them as well. The kitchen had every tool needed for cooking meals. Quiet neighborhood and nice grills. Overall really enjoyed the property.
