From the moment you enter this property, you're in for something rarely found in Cambria: Great views, PLUS just 5 minutes from all the tourist attractions Cambria has to offer, AND YET, peace and quiet.We had a very relaxing time here, enjoyed watching the sunsets every evening, and spotting the wildlife that often wanders by.

A wonderful stay!!!

We spent 4 months in the Keenen family home. The house is located in an ideal location. In a very quiet location and about 15 minutes walk from the beach. The house has been remodel with great taste. Beds are so comfortable. Richard is an exceptional host, he was able to answer all our questions quickly and even more. Cambria is a little corner of paradise that must be discovered.

Home away from home

This property is amazing. Perfect location for peaceful and quiet getaway with everything you need to stay connected, or disconnected if you wish. Perfectly appointed home with great views and wildlife everywhere. The host is very responsive and took care of everything we needed, without us having to ask. We loved the gourmet kitchen and spent many nights cooking and grilling while watching the amazing sunsets.

Happy Hill Gem!

We could not have asked for a more responsive and helpful host as Richard Keenan. Our 3 weeks in the Keenan family home were exceptional. All accommodations were as described and more. Very convenient location. Home was clean, nicely furnished, and with comfortable beds and bedding. Check out the suggestions guests have written in their guest book for some great ideas on things to do, restaurants, etc. Loved the wildlife that came onto the property on a daily basis, the gorgeous view, and the quiet solitude this rental provided. Our daughter was able to work remotely, which was a bonus. Highly recommend. Many thanks to the Keenan's for sharing their family home!
