About the host
Your host
This house was built in 1910, refurbished in 1988, and again in 2020. I call this my rehabilitating retreat. I have always had people living here, mostly family, but I have decided I love it too much not to be able to come to stay whenever I want. I spend half my time here and the other half in LA. Every time I come here, I leave refreshed and renewed. I am not sure if it is the ocean, the pine trees, the sunsets, or the house, but I suspect it is the perfect combination of all that makes this place so special.
I wanted to allow others to enjoy this little soul-refreshing Gem so I have decided to welcome others into my home in the hopes it can wash away some of your day-to-day grunge and replace it with a renewed energy
2020 was spent remodeling and feel I have been able to breathe life back into this old house. She responded well and is ready for new energy from those who visit.

Why they chose this property
This is a historic property and one of the original buildings in Cambria. The same builders who built this property also built the Hearst Castle. Because this house is commercially zoned, it is in the thick of shopping, restaurants, and wine tasting and is close to one of the best restaurants and coffee shop in town.
The view from the porch will remind you that "it IS the pines that make Cambria so special." The ocean is also just a short walk through the woods.
Lastly, if you have dogs, they love it here. Cambria is absolutely a dog-friendly town
