We stayed for four days at the Brocklebank House and found it a relaxing place for our visit to Cambria. It's a charming older house and was stocked with everything we needed. The kitchen has a new high-end stove and oven that made perparing meals easy, and the small dishwasher works well, There are also plenty of linens in the closets and the neds were comfotable. Our daughter brought her dog, and it was nice to have a fenced in deck for the pooch to step outside. It's a short walk down the hill to the Moonstone Beach Boardwalk. There's no light at PCH, but crossing isn't too harrowing if you're careful. Fiscalini Ranch Preserve is a five-minute drive away for walks on the bluffs.

Vacation with kids and a dog

This little house was perfect for our needs. It's just a short walk to Moonstone beach, or a quick trip by car. Loved the fireplace for the colder nights. It was a really convenient place for our family. There were also a lot of puzzles and games and good Wifi, so we had all we needed on our vacation.

Lovely Getaway

This is a well-stocked, comfy, cozy home a 5-10 minute walk down to a beautiful beach. For three of us staying two nights and just wanting to hang out, it was perfect. The fireplace worked great; the kitchen had pretty much all we needed to make some breakfast; WiFi was easy; the beds were pretty comfy; there were cards and games and puzzles (it was rainy!). The yard was beautiful and I wish the weather had been better so we could've enjoyed it.

Serene Coastal Holiday

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: Charming older home in great neighborhood. We reveled in the ability to hear the waves roll (and crash) on to the shore and enjoyed a peek-a-boo ocean view from the deck. House was well-stocked for cooking, even Christmas dinner. Would absolutely stay here again.

Holiday with friends

Enjoyed the house. The dog didn’t care for the yard I guess the trees scared him. It would have been nice if the sensor lights stayed on longer as it was awfully dark when taking him out during the night.

Beautiful Location

The house itself was perfect and had all the amenities we needed. I was slightly thrown off having a separate pick up location for the keys, but that didn’t end up being too out of our way. Also, lots of Spider-friends around. We found one in an entertainment drawer, one in one of the beds, and another one in the bathroom the next morning hanging from the ceiling. Besides that this place was great!

Quiet little Cambria Cottage

Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was more than happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Nice little quiet cottage nestled above Cambria main street a very enjoyable stay. Furniture is a bit dated and house smelled a little musty. Door locks could use some attention. A well appointed kitchen. House sits on a very quiet corner just below a Cal Fire station.

We did have an issue w/working the DVD player; contacted the mgt. office; nice guy said he look into and texted that he had msg. to owners. We eventually figured a way to stream through our own Netflix accoutn. But was disappointed that the DVD player didn't work. Otherwise, overall great stay and is a recommend.

Home on the hill

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We had a nice stay at the Brocklebank house. Although this house is rated 4 stars I'd say it's really a 3 star property. I've stayed in several 4 star properties that were much more updated and had better amenities. The home is in a good location. Close to PCH, walking distance to Moonstone Beach and near downtown Cambria.

Enjoyable Cambria Stay

We really liked the location and layout of this home. Everything you could need for a trip was provided; plenty of kitchenware, diningware, towels, blankets etc and all in nice condition. It had a nice deck that we sat out on and had lunch a couple of days. It should be noted though that the dishwasher wasn't great, didn't really clean the top deck; the fridge, microwave and oven could do with updating, and the gas pressure was pretty bad on the stovetop meaning it took a while to heat anything up. We also had some issues with no hot water, however the agent was super responsive when we reported it and came out within an hour, thank you! Overall the issues were fairly minor and we really enjoyed our stay.

Renter beware

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very dirty. I was more than happy with the location. I was very dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Although in a good location and welcoming to dogs, renter beware. Interior walls and doors have grubby spots and scratches. Bedrooms and corridor have old carpets with an odor. Bed was uncomfortable. A set of window drapes looked like they had been wet from a leak and were starting to grow mold. Outdoor table cover was torn in several places and table needed to be cleaned before use. The rear yard it overlooked was uncared for. On Saturday a nearby party venue played loud music until 10pm. Some effort has been made to make living area comfortable, and although the house has some charm it is teetering on the brink of being unacceptable. It needs more attentive maintenance but even better, updating.

Large outside deck was perfect for reading and enjoying nature. We even saw a group of deer walk placidly through the yard. All in all a good home base for a trip to the central coast.
