We really enjoyed our stay. Check-in was easy and the kitchen was convenient. I highly recommend kayaking on the Russian River. We had a fantastic tour guide and there were very few people around so we got to enjoy the wildlife. Being from Wisconsin, we have always poked fun at the California Happy Cow commercials. It turns out that the cows in Sonoma County do appear happy. I can't yet vouch for the rest of your beautiful state.

Beautiful surroundings, quiet, cozy, nicely decorated, well stocked kitchen, good beds & linens

Tsunami advisory on our first evening was a little scary but it ended up being a non-event. We appreciated the informational email & phone check from the rental agency. Living room furniture cute & comfy but sofa seat cushion could use a good cleaning. Oven was old, gas burners needed to be lit (a warning about that might’ve been helpful) and we could not figure out how to light the oven so it went unused. Exterior is old (and charming) but could use a few repairs and general maintenance. Interior was better but still a few areas needing attention (bathroom). Wonderful outdoor spaces. We appreciated all the coffee table books with their beautiful photographs. Thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Difficult to leave!

The house was cozy and well appointed. For the most part we enjoyed our stay. However, there was a drip in the shower that was very annoying particularly in the smaller bedroom. I called to arrange maintenance and was told someone would stop by. I spoke to the man who was to stop by and he did not have the equipment to repair the drip and said he would pass the information on to the correct person. I never heard any more from the number I called and no one came to fix the drip.There was only one sheet on the bed in the master bedroom. We had to sleep between the bottom sheet and the blanket. That didn't seem right.

Fisherman's Cottage

The cottage is quaint though is in need of some minor general repair. All doors to outside need to be weather sealed (very drafty). Some dishes/cups are chipped (in several places) and should be replaced. Yard is overgrown. Location is great, easy & quick walk to the beach. Overall it was a nice stay.

Lovely stay

What a sweet little cottage with a lovely location just steps from Salmon Creek and beach. I spent a quiet week working with great internet access and grandchildren ages 5 and 6 came over the weekend and enjoyed the cute twin bedroom and walk to beach. Would definitely recommend for singles, couples or small family. Can't wait to return!

All was as expected with one “miss”… no starter coffee! After a late arrival in a remote location to find no coffee available in the house and a late morning trip to a convenience store the only option it was a rough start. A pleasant stay all in all.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The Cottage was way cool. Proximity to the beach a five minute walk. Everything about the Cottage was as advertised. Small, but cozy, with a very adequate master bedroom. Particularly liked being a bit North of the congestion in town.

Cosy house Great location

The house is bright, cosy and welcoming. It was cool at night but the gas fireplace made the livingroom cosy. The beds were comfortable and the location is perfect: quiet, 2 minutes from the sand dunes and beach and close to beautiful hikes and great seafood restaurants. I hope we can come back to Bodega Bay.
