Location was great! We thoroughly enjoyed everything about our stay from the gorgeous views to the cozy bedrooms and fireplace to the super easy access to Portuguese Beach. The house was very tastefully done.
Beautiful house with an amazing location. The two minute walk to the beach was absolutely perfect for our family. Nicely kept house with good amenities.
This is the BEST place to stay, it has become our favorite place to go! Falling asleep and waking up to the sound of the waves on Portuguese Beach is the best! The house is super cozy, and we love the deer that visit throughout the day.
House was great! Had everything we needed. Location is unbeatable. Being able to walk to the beach was a game changer. Host was very responsive. We had an issue with the coffee machine the first morning and they had a new one delivered in a few hours. I would definitely stay again! My only suggestion would be to provide beach towels. Not a big deal, but they would have come in handy.
We were looking for a peaceful place, close to the ocean and away from the crowds—and this home was exactly what we had hoped for. What a stunning spot! The house is very well equipped, with absolutely everything you could need. The bedding is incredibly comfortable, and the pool table, fire pit, and barbecue are all great bonuses.The location, just about a hundred meters from the beach, is perfect. We even had daily visits from deer and coyotes :) And the night skies were just magical—no light pollution at all, so we could enjoy stargazing every evening around the fire pit.All in all, this stay was a truly peaceful and happy escape in the middle of our California road trip.
This is our second time staying in this beautiful property - we have made so many family memories! The views and sunsets are amazing, we played cards and board games on the deck and on the big table inside by the fire. Being just steps away from the beach was the best part for our pup - she had the best time too and will sure keep all the way home. We will be back! Thank you for giving us everything we needed for a relaxing getaway
The house has amazing views and we loved the outdoor area and fire pit. Great beach access (the highway wasn’t too busy, but cars go really fast so beware when crossing). Loved the pool table and view from the couch in the game room. Plenty of space to relax between the game room and family room sofas. Kitchen is small but well appointed. Already looking forward to our next visit!
We planned our trip to Bodega Bay to celebrate our daughter's birthday, and graduation from college. Everyone loved the home, the location was perfect, the views were amazing, and we really enjoyed the pool table! We loved how close to the beach it was. We spent the day on the beach and it was perfect. If we come back to Bodega Bay in the future, we will definitely love to stay here again!

Fantastic home! We rented this home for family during our family reunion. They absolutely loved the home, its amenities and its location.
Beautiful ocean view. Quiet neighborhood. We saw quite a few wild animals that my daughter loved so much. Easy walk to beach. First time we did not have to make any efforts to see sunset. Close to other landmarks. We really enjoyed staying in the property. Thanks a lot.

Beautiful View
Very Beautiful view and house. It was clean. But all the outdoor furniture was worn or torn which made being outside not so enjoyable.
Loved the place before, loved it even more now. Superb upgrade in adding what used to be the garage game room into the house proper with a new TV, awesome lounges and all. Missed the ping pong table a little bit, but the "trade" for an all enclosed game and additional TV room was well worth it! Thanks again and looking forward to our next stay!

The home has an amazing view. The house itself is older. The floor boards are warped, the kitchen is barely appointed and small, furniture is not comfortable. Enjoyed our time in the area.

We had an amazing stay; the location couldn't have been better—just a short drive to beautiful hiking trails and the beach. We loved starting our mornings with a scenic hike and ending our days with sunsets stroll on the beach.The outside deck was a highlight for us. It offered stunning views of the ocean, making it the perfect spot to relax with a cup of coffee or dine in the evening. The space was clean, cozy, and well-equipped, making it feel like a home away from home for us.

This house ticked off all the right boxes! Great ocean view and less than a block to a beach. The house is beautifully decorated and the pool table provided lots of entertainment lol. We all had a great time playing games at the large dining table and conversing around the outdoor fire pit. I will definitely book there again, thank you
Great stay at Bodega Bay Beach home. The property is very close to the water, the view is amazing, you can even hear the waves and there is a house fairly close that blocked the wind. We loved the extra room with the pool table, allowed us to spread out and enjoy. The house had everything we needed, only 2 complaints were the showers, which worked, but with very light pressure and the TV in the main room wouldn't work, but otherwise wonderful stay. Would also recommend that you provide coffee and filters that fit the coffee maker. Ty for the late checkout!
The house was spacious for the 4 of us and the big windows let in lots of light so it is a very relaxing place to be. The view of the ocean is amazing from the house. We enjoyed being able to walk to Portuguese Beach and stroll through the quiet neighborhood, play pool, etc. Overall a very comfortable place to stay. The host was great with communication and was very helpful when I had a question about the locking system. The one improvement I would recommend is that the house could use a decent set of pots and pans and a good knife set and cutting board. Side note: the VRBO site says that it is sleeps 8 people but the beds and the guest book on site states max 6 people and the number of beds is appropriate for 6 people.

Incredible views from both family rooms, the kitchen and the back deck. Our family of five was happy just hanging out and looking out of the window while we read, cooked, and played games on a last minute vacation before school started. The yard was perfect for our pup. There were deer that we could watch that came regularly and a bobcat sighting. The nearby beach was great for walks, the road for running and dog walking, and Bodega Bay had great offerings for coffee, pastries, food, and groceries. We had a great time and would highly recommend this property. Fabulous location and views that cannot be beat. Layout of two family rooms is great for people with kids or that just want to do different things.

We loved our recent stay at this Beach House. It was in walking distance to an amazing beach, that was never crowded. The ocean views from the living room, king room and back room were amazing. We enjoyed the fire table, bbqing on the deck and eating dinner outside. The room with bunk beds was a nice surprise! The description said it was a room with a full bed, so I was prepared to have my girls share a bed. To our surprise, they each got their own bed as bunk beds! That should definitely be updated in the property description. The pool table was an added bonus that we used every day as well. The kitchen is a little small and there is no room to store any food that you bring unless it needs to be refrigerated. It would be nice to have a cupboard to store some snacks during our stay. Otherwise it was a lovely home, very clean, and we will definitely be coming back here again!
Arrival: When we got there I couldn’t find my email with the code to get in- it was easy to get a hold of someone that helped right away. Someone even called back within minutes to make sure we got in ok- very responsive! They also had an option of ordering from a local baker- the cookies & brownies were delicious!Location: Not far from Bodega Bay so we were able to still enjoy the shops and restaurants there, yet feel away from it all. We even walked across the hwy to the trail/stairs down to check out Portuguese Beach. But really enjoyed the tidepools at Shell Beach a few min drive north and took a great hike at Bodega Head overlooking the bay. House: Gorgeous views not only from the outside deck area, but also from the living room & main bedroom. The table was perfect for hanging out and playing games- while also enjoying the view. Outside we got to see a family of deer strolling through. Can’t say enough about the beautiful view of the ocean from anywhere on that side of the house! So perfectly peaceful. At night we lit a duraflame log in the cool fireplace and played games- and could still hear the ocean. We also played a few games of pool- fun game room. But we spent most of our time in the front of the house enjoying the view and fireplace. The house was very clean and comfortable. The fireplaces in the bedrooms were a nice touch. We had such a great trip- would definitely recommend and would love to go back. )
