About the host

Hosted by Erin Nelson

Host profile image
We have always dreamed about owning a beach house. We love the Monterey Bay Area and have been renting our favorite beach house that felt like home to us for many years. We hoped and prayed we would have one of our own someday! In 2014 we made a ten year goal to purchase something by the coast. We dreamed of white water views and were looking in the Aptos area. During the summer of 2019 one of our family members was staying at Pajaro Dunes and we fell in love with this area. The Copper Nest was featured as an open house one day during our visit and we decided to take a look. We thought it was so funky walking up to it because it was so high and on STILTS! But we instantly fell in love and felt right at home the moment we walked in. We knew we wanted to create a retreat and share the home with others.

Bryan is a financial planner and radio broadcaster in the Turlock area and Erin is the executive director of a children’s grief center called Jessica’s House in Turlock. They have a family business farming almonds in the Central Valley. They have four children and six grandchildren who all love the beach.

Why they chose this property

This area stood out to us because of the views! We love seeing the ocean views to the West especially during sunset and the agriculture views to the East at sunrise. We also love being able to have the recreation area and beach steps just steps away.

What makes this property unique

The 360 degree views and expert design from Conrad Asturi Studios make this home a rare find. The accessibility to Monterey, Carmel and Santa Cruz is something we enjoy. We often drive to neighboring areas when we are visiting. Dining out is one of our favorite activities and we enjoy trying the excellent restaurants throughout the area. We recently discovered the wine region and restaurants in Carmel Valley and make it a point to visit when we are here.
