Ocean Front Cottage!! Beauty on the outside, Charm on the inside!

Beautiful, completely restored in March 2020 Beach Front home. Great curb appeal, but even better view from the ocean side. Private stairs to the beach. Full view patio doors in great room open to let in the sea breezes. Beautiful wood floors throughout. Great surfing right from the backyard. Several additional great surf breaks in short walking distance. Surf fishing from the backyard. Great kayaking. Volleyball area in the cove.

This home is a beautiful cottage built in the early 1900's and has been completely restored and updated with all of the creature comforts you need to relax and make this your get away destination. This is truly a great cottage, but there is no question that being on the beach makes all of the difference in the world! You don't have to walk the kids to the beach! They are there! The hot water shower is right there in the backyard, steps away from the beach. If you have stayed in a home on the beach, you understand! If you haven't, now is your opportunity!

The central coast is the up and coming wine region of California. Templeton, Paso Robles, Edna Valley and even Cayucos and Cambria offer many destination wineries to tour, taste and buy.

If you are not into wine touring, there are so many activities right outside your door. You may decide to park the car and just stay put for the week.

A week of R & R on the beach

The property was amazing, the outside gardens and fountains were beautiful spots to relax and get out of the wind if needed, the beach access was easy, so little preplanning and packing was needed. Beach chairs and boogie boards were available which was great because we didn't bring any. The house was unique and had the feel of a vacation get away.

Family Beach Adventure

We absolutely loved this cottage by the sea. The patio was perfect for watching the ocean and relaxing. The ocean was just a few steps away. Our five-year-old made sand castles while her parent took long walks on the beach. The town of Cayucos was within walking distance. I hope to return to this fantastic beach home soon. Betty

Nice stay in Cayucos

Nice cottage on the beach. Very clean and cozy. Two couples. We used this as a base camp to explore the area, Morro Bay, visited Hearst Castle, Ragged Point and Wineries and shopping in Paso Robles. Great views from den and back patio.

Perfect Stay

An absolutely wonderful stay in a thoughtful cottage. The location and beach were perfect, and the garden and grounds were beautiful. We fit two small families and the kids loved the upstairs loft. After a long day of boogie boarding the warm outdoor shower was an added bonus. We enjoyed fires and s'mores in the evenings. We'll be staying again!
