About this property

Waterfront 2 Bed-King/Queen , 2 Bath + INCREDIBLE VIEWS perched over Bodega Bay

Your Bodega Bay Home directly over the water!

Just imagine coming home and enjoying scenic Bodega Bay....with private bayfront balcony over the water. Immerse yourself in the sights and sounds of Bodega Bay. You'll enjoy watching the seals, heron, gulls, cormorants, white pelicans, brown pelicans and sandpipers right from your deck over the tidal waters.

You will enjoy a fully equipped, modern kitchen. Beautiful granite countertops with a gas stove, full size refrigerator and oven, microwave, and dishwasher.

This two bedroom, two bath vacation rental is part of a three unit property, and the perfect place to rest and rejuvenate. This is an upstairs unit and our guests need to be able to climb stairs. Guests that book this unit also need to be mindful of the guests that may be booked in the unit below you. The noise transfers in our historic home. We ask that you remove shoes inside (bring slippers or socks) and please, no running or jumping. For this reason, we encourage our guests that have younger children or pets to book their stay in our lower unit one.

Living room and both bedrooms are equipped with smart TV's. Guests will need to log into their own streaming apps (Netflixs, Hulu, etc.). Views of the bay from your bedroom windows...watch the sunrise as you wake up in your queen sized comfortable beds. The living room area has a wood stove to keep you cozy. Guests need to bring their own small sized wood logs (16" or smaller), duraflame or presto logs. A private balcony hangs over the water with 4 hightop chairs & a weber grill (guests please bring charcoal). You will enjoy free high speed Starlink Internet / WIFI.

We are centrally located along the scenic and dramatic Sonoma Coast. It's just an hour and 15 minutes from San Francisco, and less than an hour from Napa and Sonoma. The Russian River is just 15 minutes away, so there are literally hundreds of activities to choose from during your Bodega Bay vacation! Or you can stay put and just enjoy the wildlife and wonderful ambiance of Bodega Bay.

Our home is a QUIET, peaceful home directly on the shores of Bodega Bay. The only sounds, noise we want our guests to remember are those of bodega tides rolling in and out, birds, seals, otters, the fog horn and ocean waves crashing in the distance. Please be respectful to our neighbors and other guests. This is NOT a place to come and have a loud party.

Perfect stay in Bodega Bay! Hosts were great and answered questions for us quickly. We will 100% be back to this beautiful place. Peaceful and quiet and full of amazing views and great moments with the seals right off the deck. It was hard to leave!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the apartment on the shore of Bodega Bay. The view is outstanding, and everything was exactly as described. We particularly enjoyed using the barbeque on the deck, while enjoying the views, and found the kitchen to be very well equipped. Both bedrooms were nice and the mattresses particularly comfortable. Notes from the owners were very thorough and completely accurate. We would be happy to return.

Watching the boats coming in from crabbing… watching pelicans, gulls and loons… all from the deck or living room! Fantastic! Lots of good restaurants to choose from, but the kitchen is nicely stocked and ready to go too! Quiet, comfortable… the host always responded within minutes to any questions during our month-long stay. Very relaxing.

Can't beat the location, that's for sure. Really enjoyed the wood burning stove in the evenings while overlooking the bay. Coffee on the balcony was a fantastic way to wake up in the morning. The birds and seals/sea lions all around the bay made for a lovely morning of sights and sounds. We were originally going to stay at the Lodge on Bodega Bay, and I'm happy we chose this place instead. We ended up going to Drakes to have cocktails at the outside firepits, and then dinner afterwards. Drakes is located at the Lodge, and honestly, I think was the best part about the property. So the fact that you can drink and dine there without staying at the Lodge makes it worthwhile to look at other options like this property. Couple small issues to note:Noise transfer was in the description of the rental, so we were expecting some from the other units. The electronic fog horn at Bodega Bay goes off 24/7 every 10 seconds, and is audible through the walls. This did wake us up a bit earlier than expected. So depending on the renter, I wouldn't recommend this to anyone who may be a light sleeper.Beds/pillows weren't the greatest, and the squeaky/creaky basic frames must definitely contribute to noise transfer to the renters below. This is something I hope the host may consider improving down the road. I would not hesitate to stay here again or recommend the place to others. I always feel compelled to leave honest reviews so future renters can set their expectations.

About the host

Hosted by Krista and Steve

Host profile image
Our property features three private rental units. Having lived in the area for many years, we are happy to provide recommendations and resources for your trip to the Sonoma Coast!

Why they chose this property

We love the quiet and serenity of Bodega Bay. While the history of Bodega Bay is rooted in the fishing industry, there is a lot of activity and variety in this small town. You can enjoy dozens of scenic beaches, hiking, biking, wine tasting, fishing, golf, you name it. No wonder Bodega Bay is one of the most popular towns on the coast.

What makes this property unique

Staying right on the water is the most unique aspect of this property. Enjoy watching the seals and pelicans right out of your window or while relaxing on the deck. I love watching the changing of the tides, and watching the fishing boats pass 'At the Bay's Edge' on their way to unload their catch.
