Take in unforgettable views of Bodega Bay, Bodega Head, and the open ocean beyond at this light-filled home in Bodega Harbour. This is the Northern California Coast at its finest, with a trail across the street leading down to the beach and a private hot tub waiting to welcome you back home.

Bodega Harbour is a beautiful community in Bodega Bay built around a Scottish-links-style golf course, which you'll have access to half a mile down the road. The house is about two miles from the wharves and restaurants in town and a few miles more from the rugged beaches between Bodega Bay and Jenner. This is also the perfect spot for day trips - to oyster farms on Tomales Bay, the windswept shores of Point Reyes National Seashore, or even Muir Woods.

This home is wonderfully unique in the windows and nooks that seem to wait around every corner, providing lovely spots to escape and relax. The great room is upstairs on the top floor, offering generous seating, picture windows that frame the water, and glass doors that lead to the deck. Prepare homemade meals in the kitchen with stainless steel appliances and gorgeous countertops, sit down for dinner at sunset while watching for whale spouts on the horizon, and stream movies in the evenings in the warmth of the pellet stove.

Spend your mornings with coffee and a newspaper outside in the sheltered courtyard, escape for an hour or two to send emails at the desk workspace, and reserve the evening hours for stargazing from the hot tub on the back deck. When it's time to turn in, you'll find that each bedroom has a TV, and three have en suite bathrooms - including a primary suite with a balcony overlooking the bay. There's another sleeping space in the remodeled basement, which includes two tri-fold futon mattresses.

Needs TLC

Location is amazing! House needs work. Electrical, stained couches, mold and overall TLC. The listing also says a queen bed in one of the rooms, but it’s a set of trundle beds.

Peaceful oceanfront retreat

My recent two-night stay at this stunning oceanfront property was absolutely incredible! From the moment I walked in, I was blown away by the breathtaking ocean views—waking up to the sound of waves and watching the sunset from the living room was pure magic.The property was impeccably clean, with modern furnishings and everything I needed for a comfortable stay. The location was perfect, offering both privacy and easy access to nearby attractions. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a luxurious, peaceful escape by the sea.

Save by the view

The location was perfect, 5 minutes walk to the beach with breathtaking view.Unfortunately, I can't say the same thing about the condition of the house. There were ants almost everywhere, especially in the kitchen and the sitting area upstairs. There was a dirty knives in the drawer. Most of the dishes, especially the serving dishes had to be re-washed. The kettle has a brown chunk of something in it. The worse part was the ants on the beds, the got into our bags, and a very large stain in the bedsheet down in the room by the garage. There were stains on the sitting area upstairs, blinds and walls.i reported this issue via text messages with pictures. Someone was supposed to call but no one ever did.The house is very unique and we don't mind the stairs, but definitely need some love and care.

The view is worth the rent by itself

Seriously, amazing view of the bay. But when you aren't staring at that, the rest of the home is well laid out and extremely comfortable. Works great for 5 of us, but could easily accomodate more. Absolutely recommend.

Family Time

Perfect place to spend time with family and if you needed time alone there is space for that. It was well stocked with supplies and we didn’t have to drive far to get to the beach.

Must experience location and awesome view.

The beach and golf shop are a short walk (a bit hilly) and their bistro/bar was a pleasant escape from the in-laws. Very short drive into Bodega to check out the restaurants and small shops. Nice getaway from big city life.

Blue Horizon Bodega Bay

This beautiful home was the perfect place to have a family vacation. We used all the rooms, even the share room off the garage (which was perfect for our pre-teens). The main bedroom with the king size bed was large enough to setup a pack-n-play for the baby. The twin beds with trundle bed was just what we needed for the 6 year old and 4 year old. We used the hot tub everyday. The kitchen table sat the whole family of ten. The view and sunset made the stay very magical, we even saw a family of deer from the balcony, between the house and the ocean.

good experience

The house was a great place to stay with family, however I think the beds beds mattress toppers are they were a little hard and the 5th bedroom should be advertised as a separate room off of the garage (Im not sure if it already is…) It was too detached from the house to put any children in so unfortunately parents had to share rooms with their young kids. However, this views and location are stunning and we loved the big kitchen table for our family of 9 to eat at and play games!!

Mice infestation!!!

Location: beautiful. House: old and needs remodeling but was comfortable. Experience: TERRIBLE!!!! Upon arrival to the house, we received a text from the property manager, saying that they were aware of mice infestation in the property. The garage door was broken and visibly open. There was trash on the floor in the garage and animals got in there and threw all the trash that was not taken away prior to our arrival. There were mice droppings in several parts of the house, including the kitchen, the cabinets, the closets, around the dining room and living room and inside the couches. We requested to be moved to another property, but they didn’t have a house big enough for our group. Due to that, we requested the property manager to have the cleaning staff come and clean the house again. We had to leave the house for half-day in order for them to come and they did a very poor job to the point that the property manager had to come back and clean again the kitchen himself! We had mouse traps all over the house, six mice were caught, and we have pictures!!! We tried several times to contact management to see what they could do about this situation and they denied the request. These was the worst experience we’ve ever had. Even though the Area is beautiful and the house is big enough to hold a big group, I would not recommend these to anybody who spends a lot of money in hopes to stay in a clean and comfortable house.

Family get away

Million dollar views- worth every penny! The walk down to the ocean might not be for everyone- a bit steep. We loved the access to the beach! We appreciated the binoculars available to whale watch. The handle in the half bath was broken and the garage door handle is about to fall off too. We were unable to lock the slider to the BBQ. We did not use the hot tub to comment. We also did not use the room off the garage. That room would offer a lot of privacy if someone wanted- kind of hidden. The kitchen and floors could use major cleaning. There are sugar ants in the drawers, counters and floors. There are cobwebs everywhere. Our rooms for each of us were comfortable. The house is laid out very well for family gatherings. Loved the large round table for meals and games. The living room spaces had plenty of room too. First time to Bodega Bay to stay and we enjoyed ourselves very much.

We had a wonderful few days at this home. Furnishings are tasteful and comfortable. The kitchen is well appointed. Almost every window in the house boasts gorgeous views. It is an easy walk to the beach and quick drive to neighboring areas. I hope to return!

Staff retreat

The home was a perfect place for our staff Retreat. Plenty of room to relax and unwind. The problem we had is with the heating system or lack of. It was a crazy windy , rainy cold weekend. The first night we were freezing! The pellet stove had no pellets and a few of the space heaters were broken. John from Vacasa was wonderful. He got to the house as quick as he could with pellets , no luck , the igniter was not working. He also showed me where the 5th bedrooom is. The next evening Cristy? Showed up in the crazy storm with two space heaters , which saved us. The sliders upstairs and the front door were leaking really bad. We had to use quite a few beach towels to maintain it. It was extremely windy. We spent the day at Bodega bay lodge getting massages and relaxing in the pool and hot tub. Overall we had a great time. We loved the big round table and all the large windows. The house has amazing views and the room upstairs is very comfortable and a great place to gather. I wish we could have gone out for walks, the location of the house is perfect. Mother Nature was in full force with thunder and lightning.

AMAZING VIEWS. We have stayed at multiple homes over the years in Bodega and this is our favorite so far. Every bedroom has and en-suite, that’s a plus! Primary bedroom has amazing views of the ocean. Bright, clean, overall a nice place to getaway and recharge. Management was very responsive.

Nice view

We had a nice time. It is located in a stunning neighborhood. Loved the views from the windows and balcony! Over all the place was comfortable. We all really liked having our own bathrooms. There are a few maintenance issues that should have been addressed… primary bedroom latch on the door was broken. It’s a sliding type door and there was a very noticeable gap where it didn’t shut all the way. That was sort of a bummer, because the room was beautiful. The place needed a few updates but I suppose for the price it is understandable. Most all our group of 8 really liked it though.
