The property itself is lovely. The noise from the highway was tooo much. My dog was afraid of the noise and we were unable to enjoy the yard or fire pit.

Fantastic beach stay option

We have stayed at this property several times and plan to continue coming back. We love the pet friendly opportunity and the fenced in outdoor area. Appreciate the close access to the community stairs. It is clean and well appointed. The garage space is a plus also.

I would say the only real complaint is that the rollaway bed for the fifth adult is not made for an adult. We had to go buy an air mattress.It is the worst rollaway bed. I think a large child would have trouble sleeping on it. But other than that, everything was excellent

very dog friendly

The house is 2 levels with somewhat steep stairs. The stairs are covered in a pho wood that is a bit slippery for the dog and because of this we slept downstairs. The bed was perfect just the right hardness. Bath room is not in the bedroom so you had to go out in the hall to access it. Everything worked quite well, TV's, microwave, coffee pot, oven, stove top ( 6 burners ) and barbecue. Perfect location in-between Cayucos and Morro Bay. Hwy 1 is behind the house but we didn't really hear the traffic. You can get to the very dog friendly beach right across the street with steep stairs and I managed with my walking stick. You could park in the garage with a regular size car but not a truck. The yard is fenced and perfect for dogs to use. There is an empty lot next door which the surfers park in early morning. We'll probably be back.

Wonderful girlfriend and dogs getaway!

This was my second visit at Steps to the Beach. Both trips were wonderful! The home was clean, organized, comfortable, open, and perfect spot for a beach getaway. Super dog friendly. They even had a pup basket, in which my dog was beyond himself excited to find a toy in! Very friendly and reliable communication. Will definitely be back!!!

Great Beach House!

Wonderful, cozy and convenient home to enjoy the beach, Cayucos and SLO. Beachside Rentals were communicative and helpful before, during and after our stay. We really liked the sunset views from the balcony and the access to a fun beach. The town of Cayucos had a delicious bakery and finding Hidden Kitchen (not too hard) was a treat! Highly recommended!

Perfect Getaway!

We came to escape the heat, this lovely home was right on the money. Very comfortable for two people or four if couples share, each bedroom has its own bathroom. The side yard was perfect for hosing ourselves and the dog off when coming in from the sandy beach - right across the street. Very sweet home is nicely decorated, we enjoyed our stay!
