Can't beat Morro Bay in early November
Excellent location. One block from a great coffee shop and three blocks from the marina, seafood restaurants and a terrific breakfast spot. Three comfortable private bedrooms. Would happily stay there again

This was the perfect set up for our family stay. Two bedrooms and a bathroom downstairs. Main bedroom and bathroom upstairs. Kitchen, dining and LR upstairs. Nice view of the rock from the dining room. Quiet location for sleeping. Beds were very comfortable. Had everything we needed for our stay.

Just as Pictured
There were no surprises and it looked exactly like the photos. The beds were very comfortable and the neighborhood was super quiet. One of our favorite things was walking to the neighborhood Scout coffee. We had a little snafu with the Alarm when we first got there, but the owner was very responsive and got us in touch with the Alarm company right away.

Beautiful Home in Morro Bay
We stayed for three nights and wish it had been at least one more. The home is lovely with views of the rock from the living/dining area and only three short blocks from the bay. We did whale watching, watched otters and sea lions in the bay, and drove 30 minutes up the coast to Hearst Castle and the Elephant Seal rookery. Would definitely visit again!

What a wonderful house
We had a glorious stay in this beautiful, comfortable, amazing house. The three bedrooms are well appointed and have such comfortable and cozy linens. The bathrooms are large and clean. So many windows! We love to have open windows to enjoy the coastal air and stunning views. So close to everywhere that we wanted to eat and shop and see! We will definitely stay here again!

Lovely home, responsive host
This is a lovely home. Only hiccup was the house wasn't cleaned from previous guests upon our arrival at check in time. We were really all hoping to have a rest so it was a disappointment, but Host got the cleaning crew over quickly, and 3 hours later we were in, and the house was in great condition and very comfortable. Host also gave us a small refund for our inconvenience, and was very responsive via text to the couple of other questions we had along the way. The test of a good host isn't that things go wrong, it's the response when they do. Lots to love about this home; we esp enjoyed the location, the upstairs tub, and the comfortable beds. Check out the Buttercup Bakery just down a couple blocks. Yummy treats and granola!

Graduation weekend
Our son was graduating CalPoly SLO this weekend. We were unable to find any accommodations in SLO and were hesitant to be far from campus. It turned out to be an outstanding choice to be in Morro Bay. Fewer crowds and no traffic. Plus our place had a nice view of Morro Rock and Bay.

everything almost as listed
Location was good. Good view of the water (when the sky was clear) and Morro Rock. Walking to shops, restaurants and waterfront was a daily activity for half of us. Stairway to upper floor was not for mobility impaired (as identified in other reviews). Listing said hot tub, but we never saw one...just a whirlpool bathtub. Laundry on site, but only available if you are staying a week or more. We are game players, so we had to do a little ceative furniture rearrangement for the for of us. Communications was execllent, but most could have been handled with a 'how to ' book.

Perfect location for walking around Morro Bay
This is a very nice, very well-furnished house, with everything you could possibly need. The three bedrooms make it ideal for 2-3 couples, or a family of 4. And its central location puts you a short walk from restaurants, shopping, and the movie theater.

Love Morro Bay, Great Location and Views
This property has such great potential. In town, easy walk to anywhere in town, lots of room, great vies of the rock and ocean, well appointed and furnished. The house is exceedingly quiet and whatever is outside has to be loud before the interior peace is interrupted. Just a few nits. Please, work on the interior lights to make things brighter (many bulbs burned out or so dim the rooms are sort of dark). Though there are closet cabinets in two rooms, had to move a lot of spare linens and blankets stored in them in order to be used. Otherwise, a great location in a great town to relax in.

Great location, odd about no propane
We stayed in this lovely home in early October. It is very tastefully furnished, and the view of Morro Rock is wonderful to wake up to each morning. As others have mentioned, the kitchen, living room, master bedroom, and bathroom are upstairs. The other 2 bedrooms and bathroom are on the entry-level floor. Be aware that this home is not a good fit for those with mobility issues. The reason I only gave the home 3 stars is because of the fact that the owners do not supply propane for the outdoor gas grill. There is a sign in the kitchen that says renters have to buy their own propane if they want to grill, but there are no propane vendor suggestions provided. We have stayed in VRBO’s all over California, and this is the first time that we have ever seem an owner provide a grill, but no propane. It just didn’t make sense to us. The weather was unusually hot for Morro Bay when we were there, and we wanted to grill one night. But the propane tank was empty, and we weren’t willing to buy an entire tank of propane for one meal. It was pretty frustrating and disappointing, actually. I think at the very least, the owners should be clear in the VRBO listing that propane is not provided, so that renters can plan accordingly. To end on a positive note: being so close to restaurants and having a parking spot were big pluses. Morro Bay is a great vacation spot!
