Absolutely beautiful 🩵

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: One of the most gorgeous places I’ve ever stayed, the view is just amazing, I loved sitting on the balcony with a glass of wine and watch the sunset. It was close to moonstone beach and to the cute little town for shopping and having dinner. And you must go to Harmony and visit the glass shop and pottery barn so fun 🤩

This house was perfect for our vacation. The downstairs bedroom with separate living room was perfect for our teenagers. Upstairs was great for the adults with the great view. Really appreciated the little extras with spices, plastic wrap/aluminum foil and even scissors in a "catch all" drawer in the kitchen.

Fabulous property

We traveled here from the midwest and invited California friends to visit. We love Cambria and this house was perfect for us. Clean, comfortable, spacious, private, ample parking, spectacular views, perfect location. It had everything we could possibly need--except table salt. It even had a Weber kettle BBQ grill AND charcoal--but it had gotten too wet to light. We really, really enjoyed it.

Perfect Floor Plan for a Family

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. We stayed for 3 weeks. We had family and friends visit part of this time. The arrangement of the house works beautifully for a family or guests. The stairs from the garage level up to the main floor are somewhat steep, but there is a good hand rail. On the lower level there is a roomy space with a bedroom, bath and a living area with door our to lower level patio. Perfect for extra family or guests. My only critiques are not serious ones. The living room sofa with, sorry, ugly slip cover, should be replaced as the cushions wont stay in place. I felt the kitchen was perhaps overstocked with pots and pans. There were no empty drawers or cupboards to store any food goods. These are minor issues compared to the overall attractiveness and comfort of the home. I would alert tenants not to use toaster oven and the microwave at the same time. This threw a breaker, but we were able to find and restore. I would definitely recommend this property as very comfortable place to vacation.

A quiet residential area and home

All four of us and dogs enjoyed our stay. The home is in a residential area and does have a sea view from a distance. The backyard is fenced for dogs, which was nice. There were a lot of deer in the area which were fun to see, but sadly, there was a young deer that was struck by a car not far from the home, and had to be put down by a sheriff's officer as he couldn't walk - so do drive carefully in the area.

Great get away for a long weekend

Furnishings are a little dated but property was very clean. Well stocked. Driveway is a little steep if you drive a RV van but plenty long enough. Community was quiet and you are a close drive to the amazing shops and coffee spots in Cambria. You can hear and have a great view of ocean.

Well stocked kitchen

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was more than happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: My family of four with dogs has been coming for a week in Cambria for many years. We always stay at a different house, and this house is ranked high in our opinion. The views are terrific from the living room balcony. The kitchen was very complete, with every tool, spatula, and pot/pan you would ever need! In addition to dining out at our favorite restaurants like the Sows Ear, the Sea Chest, Madeline’s, and the Black Cat, we enjoy preparing meals. We also appreciated the beds. They were very firm and we had good refreshing sleep. We loved the TV.There are a few minuses, including the furniture in the living room. The two armless chairs should be replaced by two comfortable armchairs. Also, the dishwasher needs looking at, as the pod is not always accepted. The main drawback with this house is the front stairs. However, you can exit the house from the back gate onto a level road, which makes all the difference. That’s what I did. if you exit the back gate, a car can just come Around the corner and pick you up. One other thing. The downstairs little apartment was very comfortable. My daughter really enjoyed staying there.

Wonderful House, Beautiful View!

We truly enjoyed our stay in this wonderful house. The view is amazing, and the location is great. It's perfect for three couples or a big family, with two bedrooms and bathrooms upstairs and a studio-like apartment downstairs. The kitchen had everything we needed for preparing meals. We would definitely stay here again!

Heavenly

This house is Perfect for three couples. While it may not be close to the ocean you have beatiful views of the ocean and can always hear the crashing waves. The house was so clean I really couldn't believe it. The only downside was the fireplace was not in working order and we were really looking forward to fires in the early morning and late evenings. Honestly this house was really so comfortable and lovely , we will definately be back, but we are hoping the fireplace will be fixed by then, ; )
