Take in unforgettable views of Bodega Bay, Bodega Head, and the open ocean beyond at this light-filled home in Bodega Harbour. This is the Northern California Coast at its finest, with a trail across the street leading down to the beach and a private hot tub waiting to welcome you back home.

Bodega Harbour is a beautiful community in Bodega Bay built around a Scottish-links-style golf course, which you'll have access to half a mile down the road. The house is about two miles from the wharves and restaurants in town and a few miles more from the rugged beaches between Bodega Bay and Jenner. This is also the perfect spot for day trips - to oyster farms on Tomales Bay, the windswept shores of Point Reyes National Seashore, or even Muir Woods.

This home is wonderfully unique in the windows and nooks that seem to wait around every corner, providing lovely spots to escape and relax. The great room is upstairs on the top floor, offering generous seating, picture windows that frame the water, and glass doors that lead to the deck. Prepare homemade meals in the kitchen with stainless steel appliances and gorgeous countertops, sit down for dinner at sunset while watching for whale spouts on the horizon, and stream movies in the evenings in the warmth of the pellet stove.

Spend your mornings with coffee and a newspaper outside in the sheltered courtyard, escape for an hour or two to send emails at the desk workspace, and reserve the evening hours for stargazing from the hot tub on the back deck. When it's time to turn in, you'll find that each bedroom has a TV, and three have en suite bathrooms - including a primary suite with a balcony overlooking the bay. There's another sleeping space in the remodeled basement, which includes two tri-fold futon mattresses.

Clean and comfortable with a great ocean view.

Blue Horizon is a clean, comfortable place to stay for a family vacation. The dining room and living room have a great view of the ocean, and you can walk to the beach (less than a half-mile walk).

Beautiful house

This was a beautiful house in a beautiful neighborhood! The house was quite large and clean for our family vacation. The separate bedroom and bathroom off the garage was perfect for a little quiet for some family members since the rest of the house was full of little kids. The fenced in outdoor areas were great for the kids too.

Needs TLC

Location is amazing! House needs work. Electrical, stained couches, mold and overall TLC. The listing also says a queen bed in one of the rooms, but it’s a set of trundle beds.

Family Time

Perfect place to spend time with family and if you needed time alone there is space for that. It was well stocked with supplies and we didn’t have to drive far to get to the beach.

Must experience location and awesome view.

The beach and golf shop are a short walk (a bit hilly) and their bistro/bar was a pleasant escape from the in-laws. Very short drive into Bodega to check out the restaurants and small shops. Nice getaway from big city life.

The view is worth the rent by itself

Seriously, amazing view of the bay. But when you aren't staring at that, the rest of the home is well laid out and extremely comfortable. Works great for 5 of us, but could easily accomodate more. Absolutely recommend.

We had a wonderful few days at this home. Furnishings are tasteful and comfortable. The kitchen is well appointed. Almost every window in the house boasts gorgeous views. It is an easy walk to the beach and quick drive to neighboring areas. I hope to return!
