About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

4.5 Bedrooms, 3 Baths, 2 Kitchens, 180 degree views and a 'Man Cave'

This is a "Family Friendly" House. Great for socializing. There have been far too many 'multi-generational' parties and celebrations here to count.

The HOUSE features:

- UPPER (Main) Floor has Three Bedrooms, Two Baths and a bonus Sun Room we call the 'lady cave' that has a reading chair and futon couch.
- LOWER (Ground) Floor is a separate Studio apartment with its own private entrance and is complete with full kitchen and full bath. We have it set up 'man cave' style with two TV's, a pool table and hide-a-bed.
- Panoramic, almost 180 degree views from the main level. You can see from Point Reyes in the South all the way through Bodega Bay, Doran Beach and Bodega Harbor to the North.
- Easy five (5) minute stroll to Doran Beach. You arrive at Doran Beach on the South end where to the left are the rocks and tide pools (at low tide) and to the right the full two miles of the beach.
- Full Southern exposure in the living room, dining area, kitchen, and Master bedroom.
- Large rear deck with seven (7) person hot tub, patio table and gas bar-b-que.
- Private rear yard behind the deck - we believe that is one of only two in the entire subdivision. Great for a little quiet time or for those of you traveling with dogs.


Our GOLF COURSE SUBDIVISION neighborhood features:

- Public golf course. Bring your clubs and play the course known lovingly as 'The poor man's Pebble Beach.' But call ahead and try to get a morning tee time so you don't get caught trying to play in the afternoon winds.
- Public restaurant and bar called the 'Bluewater Bistro.' Just a short walk withing the subdivision from our place. The views are great, especially from the bar.
- Public playground for the little ones. Next door to the bar and restaurant.
- Easy walk from our house to the beach. About 5 minutes.

The place was clean, and in a very nice neighborhood.It was about 8 minute walk to the beach.Every thing worked, but many things were older (pots, pans, utensils, hot tub, BBQ, etc.There really are only 3 bedrooms in the main house.They are bigger sized, but two of them share a bathroom.The man-cave cannot be accessed from inside the house and our one teenager did not feel comfortable sleeping there separated away from everyone.The pool table is full size, in good shape, but only had one pool cue, plus a short one needed because of lack of room for some shots.While we were there, the ice maker would sometimes make a loud noise and needed to be shut off to get the noise to stop. Which is annoying in the middle of the night.Don’t get me wrong, we enjoyed our stay.But I have stayed at other places that were much better taken care of. Still, this worked out ok for us and everyone had a good time.

The most spectacular weather out at Bodega Bay for this special family get together! We enjoyed the relaxed family centered vibe of this home. Having great soaks at night under the Milky Way and lots of laughs playing pool. Sports on the big TVs and enjoying the accessible beach from a nearby path. There were some musical folks so the piano and guitar were a special touch. Not to mention the old school video game table. The host was very nice too. Everyone had a great time! Beautiful sunsets and blue ocean views made coffee time so cozy in the am. And some of us enjoyed the golf course with views galore!

The property was great. It was ready and clean when we arrived. The view was just beautiful and the home was so roomy, with 8 of us in the house, we never felt crowded. Everyone had a great time, plenty of showers and hot water for all of us to shower and get ready for the wedding we were attending. Some played the video games, some enjoyed the hot tub. There was a slight issue with the TV and we were able to get an answer from Jonathan right away and it was simply pushing a reset button.Now, here is a little above and beyond. My sister-in-law realized she had lost a very sentimental gift from her mother, a diamond bracelet. I texted Jonathan and asked that the cleaning crew be on the look out as my sister-in-law was devastated. Just two days later, the bracelet was located. It has gotten buried in the bed linens and was found by the cleaning staff who were as excited as my sister-in-law was that it was found. Honestly like that is hard to find these days and we all so appreciate everyone for being on the look out and getting it back to us.We definitely will stay again.Thank you AllThe Walters, Yeagers and Crespos

BODEGA Bay Views

Celebrating my mother's 85th birthday. It was a great location to dine and gather. Hikes, soaks, cards, rest and lots of cooking! Wonderful beach walks and oyster roast! We did a Hawaiian Luau night and had fun. More trash bags, cleaning supplies and a house guide sheet for garbage removal would have been helpful.

The location of this property in the bodega Bay Area is awesome. The property could use a good spring cleaning and a facelift on decks, fences and gates. Could also use some silicone on sliding door runners. We would definitely recommend this property if the stated updates were done.

Ocean View

Yes, the ocean view was fantastic. Several steep stairs to get into the house. There wasn't a home guide at the house and we had to reach out to the owner to get the guide send electronically. We enjoyed the hot tub. That said, not sure how the house could sleep 12; there are only three bedrooms - a pull out couch in the sunroom and the man cave should not be considered bedrooms. While some aspects of the house are being updated; other areas are in need of repair/updating (the ice maker; kitchen cabinets; outside deck; front deck chairs). Despite this, we had a wonderful time being together.

This is a 3 bedroom house!!!!!

Imagine the embarrassment when you arrive to discover that in spite of the listing being a 4.5 bedroom, it is only a 3! There is a non insulated area with a futon and the rec room had a couch that was too short to sleep on. I think this is what they consider the other 1.5. So we utilized 2 inflatable mattresses that deflated during the night.The host was super communicative. I do wish there was an instruction binder as a previous reviewer mentioned.The location was amazing.Very well stocked house, Man cave was a fun addition.
