About this property

Capercallie Cottage- # LH38

Capercallie Cottage is a great way to experience the uniqueness of the central coast. This newly updated 2 bedroom 2 bath house is surrounded by a beautiful Monterrey pine forest, with a peak of the ocean to the south west from the living room deck. Come and relax in beautiful Cambria California! Steep driveway for parking.

A short walk to Fiscalini East/West Ranch Preserve and the Lampton Park tide pools, some of the best in our area.

When you're ready to venture out and explore the beautiful Central Coast you will have many options close by. Hearst Castle and Hearst Winery, perched above the San Simeon Cove, are a short drive up the coast, and the famed Paso Robles wine country is a quick drive east. Charming San Luis Obispo is a 45-minute drive south and the Big Sur Coast is at your doorstep heading north. Cambria is the perfect starting off point for countless adventures.

Relaxing in Cambria

We had a great time! The house was super clean and it was a very quiet neighborhood. Nice view of the ocean. We saw lots of deer everyday. We will definitely come to this house again.

Wonderful Stay - Great Place

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: My neice and I had a lovely stay at Capercallie Cottage. The property was as described, clean, quiet and well maintained. The neighborhood is beautiful. The beds were excellent. The view from the upstairs deck, which is accesible from the living area or the upstairs bedroom, is amazing and we enjoyed being there. The downstairs bedroom has a deck too. The area is pretty hilly and the driveway is indeed steep. I checked with the management company and they said it was okay to park in the street (which few people do in that area). This worked well. We were a quick drive to all the delights of Cambria. The management company was excellent and helpful. I recommend this cottage and would stay again.

Simple and Adequate

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was more than happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We spent a week at Capercaillie Cottage. It was clean and gave us the things we needed to enjoy our stay. While it is not as well appointed as many homes we have rented, it met our needs as a couple. New fluffy towels and washcloths would be appreciated.

Great Vacation Rental

Comfortable, clean and convenient location to the Fiscalini Ranch Preserve with excellent hiking trails, short drive to Moonstone Beach, Hearst Castle and the Elephant Seal Sanctuary and only a couple miles to the center of town in Cambria. The appliances worked great and we had everything we needed to cook our meals, do our laundry and could even watch the local news in the morning if we woke up in time. We enjoyed the views of the ocean from the deck and watching the deer graze on the back lawn. The bed was comfortable, and we had lots of closet and bureau space to store our clothing. We would definitely rent again from Breen Vacation Station in the future. Valerie & Michael

Nice Place for A Family in Cambria

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: The home was comfortable and spacious in a very quiet neighborhood, with plenty of deer as an extra attraction. The use of the garage was nice. Unfortunately, the washer was unavailable for use. Also unfortunate was the uncooperative weather, which limited the view of the sea from the house. Cambria is a nice town to visit, not far for those interested in seeing Hearst Castle. Property staff were very friendly and made checking in very easy.

We were very comfortable in this home. My only suggestion is for the owner to install a window shade or curtain on the window on the door in the ground floor bedroom.

Great little getaway

We had a wonderful time exploring the area and seeing the elephant seals. Property was clean and had a great view off the deck. Stairs and railings are not great for kiddos and it was a steep walk to and from the ocean.

Nice clean house. Relaxing stay. Driveway very steep

Nice clean house. Can hear the ocean. House is dated (think visiting your Grandparents) and upstairs furniture should be replaced because not comfortable. Beds are comfortable and bedrooms and bathrooms and clean spacious. Rental company was easy to do business and very accommodating w/ our early check-in needs. They even gave us winery suggestions that were of great help for planning our getaway. Would stay at this home again.

Cambria-a lovely place

Tranquil vista from the deck. Very quiet at night. Walking distance to breathtaking views of the ocean. The Fiscalini Ranch Preserve is a 20 minute walk and a wonderful place to walk/run. We had a very restful time and decompressed. Will return again.

Chilling out in Cambria

This cottage was ideal fro a three person group. The neighborhood was foresee and quiet with morning visits by a Mule dear and her two babies. There was a view of the ocean from the balcony and the cool fog in the morn inns and sunny afternoons were a pleasant change from the heat of Eastern Los Angeles County in August. We enjoyed visiting the natural wonders up and down the coast and Cambria is a quaint little town with friendly people and all you need a few minutes drive form the cottage. All in all an excellent vacation.

Wonderful Place

This was an amazing stay. While Cambria was pretty foggy during our stay, the wooded neighborhood was quiet and scenic. Lots of wildlife (deer and turkeys) roamed freely, totally uninterested in us humans. The house was clean and equipped with everything needed. No worries on bathroom tissue and paper towels (plenty supplied), so while we brought some of our own, it wasn't needed. Bedding was clean and fresh. Two items of caution: 1. Spotty cell phone service, but there is a land line for local calls, which did come in handy a few times. 2. TESLA car owners beware of scrapping the bottom guards. The driveway going down to the garage is steep and has a high curb, that will scrape your wheel well guards. Approach with caution. I was able to enter the driveway at an angle approach from (I believe the south end of the driveway) without scrapping the bottom. However, reverse out of the garage and driveway taking it an an angle, I was not successful in not scrapping. Do it with caution and at an angle to minimize the scrapping. 3. EV car owners in general - The outlets in the garage are 120 BUT do not run the furnace OR hairdryers if you are plugged in to charge. It breaks the circuits. Overall I gave 4 stars, but only due to the EV charging and driveway issues. Everything else was 5 stars.

A guest from BRAWLEY, CA

Comfortable Cambria Resort Cottage

Rating Details: The property manager was adequately helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. 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: This property is cozy and comfortable, but not for guests that have any physical limitations where getting up and down stairs is a challenge. The location is very quiet, and the limited view of the ocean is majestic. We enjoyed the experience of being able to enjoy the abundant wildlife in the area. We were disappointed that there was very little cabinet space to store groceries, hence most of our groceries were stored on the kitchen counter during our two week stay. The wide screen television was not HD Quality, so the television time was somewhat compromised. As avid Bar-B-Q and outdoor grilling enthusiasts, we were disappointed that the grill was not in working order. I had thought there might be issues with this property when we reserved it in May for our July vacation. In fact, I asked the management company why the property was priced the as low as it was. I think I now have the answer to that. We will not be requesting reservations to this property again.
