The Best VRBO in Bodega Bay area!

As always, our stay was a breath of fresh air, and exactly what we needed to relax and refresh. Thank you so much and we are already thinking of another stay in your lovely, relaxing home-away-from home. Love, Terri & Randy

Perfect California location

This was a wonderful home! Quiet, clean, comfortable, and close to everything we wanted to see and do! There is a wonderful beach and meadow trail a short walk away. We are frequent VRBOers. This home was one of our favorites!

Comfortable, cosy & clean!

I spent 9 wonderful days at 'Grace at the Sea'. Pam is an excellent communicator and keeps her home spotless and well supplied. As a single older (!) person I felt very safe. Nice easy walks to the ocean, and then you can walk along the beach in either direction for a long way. Or walk along the more in-land meadow trail. Perfect get-away home!

Always a Perfect Stay! :))

Pam's Grace By the Sea has been a family retreat of ours for at least 13 years. Our 18 & 19 y/o boys have grown up playing there 3-4x/year. Her home holds so many of our beautiful family memories. Pam's home is cozy, comfy, peaceful, clean, well-appointed, and so restful! Walking distance to beach, trails, farmer's market. Pam's Bodega Bay Retreat is our family's home away from home. :))

Great stay as usual

We love staying in Salmon Creek at this great little house. We have stayed here for several days on several occasions. Pam keeps the place immaculate and fully equipped. Quick walk to an amazing and wild beach and a new regional park in the hills across Highway One. We plan on staying here again in our annual trek to the Sonoma Coast.

Cozy Cottage

The cottage was beautifully appointed and immaculate. Very cozy living space with a well-equipped kitchen. My husband and I love to spend time near the sea and this cottage was very close to our favorite beach. Communication with the host was very pleasant. I highly recommend a stay at Grace at the Sea for a relaxing and fun vacation.

About the host

Hosted by Pam Hill / Property Manager PMR25-0066

Host profile image
Purchased cabin in need of love and attention in 2001 to follow my dream of one day living at the beach. Completed remodel in 2005 while living full time until recently. I am now willing to share my labor of love so that I may spend more time with my two beautiful grandchildren and daughter. I have been so blessed in my life, and 'Grace at the Sea' is a reflection of all the love in my heart.

Why they chose this property

Prior to buying this cottage, I would walk my dog at Salmon Creek (when dogs were still allowed) every weekend to unwind from the stress of Corporate America. I retired, started project and never looked back.

What makes this property unique

You will feel at home the moment you walk in the front door. The beach, the dunes, the creek............it is all the best Sonoma Coast has to offer.
