Good, convenient, and comfortable stay.
We had a lovely weekend at this property. It was conveniently located with great amenities and comfortable rooms. However, one aspect that had a marginal impact on our stay was the presence of the owners (or possibly other tenants) staying in a separate area upstairs, which we were not expecting. This might be fully disclosed in the listing and we simply missed it. While the upstairs occupants were completely respectful and minded their own business, we could still hear them through their windows, which made us a bit self-conscious about using the outdoor amenities. As a result, we ended up spending more time indoors than we had planned. Despite this, the place itself is fantastic, and we would highly recommend it.

Celebrate birthday
The property was very nice, but I had a few issues with the property and the owner. There were rats at night in the back yard next to the hot tub, and the driveway was very steep. I also learned that the owner is living on the second floor of the same building. I booked this property for 6 people, but we ended up having 3 extra guests. The owner then let me know I was required to pay an extra $300 for them to stay or my reservation would be canceled. Also they could not stay more than one night and had to leave by 11am the following day. We had an entire extra day that our guests are not aloud to stay, so we ended up all leaving a day early at 11am with no refund.

Amazing views
Cute beach style house, unfortunately it was raining our main day there so we couldn’t check out too much of the beach and woods area but it cleared up enough for us to checkout the tide pools which were spectacular. Master bed was a little uncomfortable but no bed is as comfy as home. Owners gave great instructions and the hot tub was warm so didn’t have to wait to heat it up. Perfect house for a family getaway or just friends to hang like us!

amazing stay and location
We spent almost a week with family visiting from abroad. We had a great time. We enjoyed the kitchen space a lot as it was greatly equipped with all the tools to prepare a full Christmas menu. The sofa and the armchairs were so so confortable. The hot tub and the view were a real treat. The house was clean, however cleaning can be improved in spaces like kitchen cabinets, under the beds or in the corners harder to reach. Overall a great experience. Definitely recommended.

Our family of 5 was very comfortable at this property. Check in/out was easy. Property looks exactly as shown in the pictures. The neighborhood is very peaceful, great for a relaxing vacation. Best part are the amazing views of the ocean and a quick drive to the beach. Thank you!!

Lovely home near the beaches
We loved this property! It was nicer than the pictures showed. The living room had lots of comfy couches and the wifi was great. If you have an adult on the bunk bed, our lady found the bottom bunk a bit soft but that's a personal thing. Loved the back yard and hot tub - very nicely done up out there!

Excellent house in a quite neighborhood. The property was very clean and exactly as described on the website. The beach is about a 20 min walk but there are other options 5 to 10 min drive away in Halfmoon Bay.

This house is amazing! Between the two outdoor sitting areas, the fire pit, the hot tub, and how comfortable the inside is, you never have to leave the house. But if you choose to, there’s a lot of fun activities within a short distance.

Fantastic stay, great views, lovely house and a superb host
This stay was a quasi-"stay-cation" while our (wife and self) home was undergoing a remodel. It could not have been a better arrangement. The spacious house (three bedrooms) is easily accessible from BART and San Francisco (<10 miles to BART), has great views, has interesting places (state park, restaurants, a small store) within walking distance, and is a quiet and comfortable place. The patio, fire pit, etc. are great extras. There is a dedicated driveway for parking, and a small deck atop the house from which to view the ocean and whatever birds might be around or residence. The host, Kathy, is responsive, helpful and an all-around wonderful woman. For those not from the Bay Area, there is ample shopping in Pacifica and Half Moon Bay, a wide variety of restaurants in the area, and a stellar number of county parks and preserves to wander. Suffice it to say that we and several guests wandered a redwood preserve and saw whales and flights of pelicans at a state beach, all within three hours. Sad to say, the tine there was all too short, but it is a great memory. We were spoiled. We cannot recommend the property and owner highly enough.

Comfy, charming, and relaxing!
My fiancée's mother hosted an engagement party for us at the Moss Beach Distillery last weekend. I'm from LA, so I flew my family up for the party. I wanted a nice place in Moss Beach, close to the restaurant, and somewhere my family could spend some quality time together. Kathy's house was absolutely PERFECT!! The house is very clean, comfortable, and has darn near everything you could need! We LOVED the fire pit and the jacuzzi outside and appreciated a well-outfitted kitchen to cook in. The living room sofa sinks in a little due to there being a pull-out bed, but other than that everything worked well for us. We had an awesome time and would love to stay here the next time we're in Moss Beach. Thanks again Kathy!

Comfortable Family House
This home in Moss Beach worked very well for a family vacation. All the necessities were provided, the view is lovely and it was easy for young children to play safely (also a great children's park just down the hill). Our only complaint is the couch is very uncomfortable leaving just two chairs for the adults (we were four). Enjoyed this home and would return.

Beautiful place
This house is really nice! The decks are great places to spend the evenings. The top deck has a beautiful view of the ocean - wonderful for relaxing with a glass of wine. The bottom deck - wow - it has everything you need for an outdoor barbecue. The inside is just as nice. Very comfortable! We will definitely rent again!
