Romantic Newly Renovated Beach Cottage
Great location. Lovely place! Great views!

Amazing Welcoming Unique Ocean Home
My Son an I did a 5 day stay. The place was very centrally located on the pacific coast. The place was very cozy, clean and comfortable with outstanding ocean views from everywhere in the cabin. Good parking for two vehicles. Weather was so so, but did not hindered us a bit. We hiked at Muir Woods, the overlook and the beach all within 5 minutes away. We were able to go to San Francisco multiple times 35 minutes to do half day lunches or dinners and Sausalito 20 minutes. Yeshi was very responsive when we communicated, but really needed little assistance. The home is older and very charming. It reminded me of my own house growing up. Would definitely stay here again.

Coastal Paradise - 5min walk to beach!
It was such a wonderful girls weekend away in Bodega Bay. The place has the most beautiful views and it is a short walk to the beach. Everything in the house was nice and in order and the hot tub was amazing. The views and location are hard to beat! I hope to be back.

Stinson Oceanfront - La Sirena
La Sirena was a wonderful rental! The location is unbeatable with great views of the Pacific Ocean and easy access to the restaurants in Stinson. The apartment was clean, comfortable, and well appointed! They thought of everything!! Will be back!!

Dillon Beach Nirvana
Breathtaking location overlooking Dillon Beach, Tomales Point, and up the rocky coastline to Bodega Bay. Our only problem was deciding where best to sit to take in the spectacular views! The house has end of the road privacy. There are 3 levels of decks to gaze from with no other homes between you and the ocean, just the seabirds gliding over the breakers below. Owners were very responsive. Kitchen was well equipped. Wonderful stay for our family of 5. Already hoping for a return trip.

Jewel by the Sea
Beautiful home and very well stocked (for those that like to cook). We visit as a family every year for the holidays and it never disappoints. You can’t beat the location and the views!

Fun, sun and serenity by the sea
My daughter, who was home from college, and I had a nice getaway at Jill’s house. The house is homey, clean, and a short walk to the beach. We loved being able to bring our pup, since Dillon Beach is dog-friendly. The kitchen had everything we needed to stay in a cook.

Classic Bungalow at Dillon Beach
This home is a gem in the Dillon Beach area. It is updated, clean and comfortable. Less than 5 minutes walk to the beach or general store that has anything you might need (plus soft serve!). The general store is part of the Dillon Beach Resort which also has a great restaurant with stunning views of the beach.

Vineyard Retreat | 3BR Home Near Sonoma & Napa
Julie is an excellent host! We had a fantastic time at the cottage and casita. The pictures and description matched the Airbnb posting and we couldn’t have been more pleased about the picturesque vineyard surroundings. Julie also added the best tiny details like robes in every room, shampoo and conditioner, and additional home supplies. Her guidebook to the surrounding area was also an excellent touch. I would definitely recommend this home for your next getaway!

Woodside vacation home at Anchor Bay.
Home was so private and serene. Being in the redwood trees was really magical. Very comfortable home with all the amenities you would need. Also close to the beach and to the small town. Had a wonderful stay and really looking forward to coming back soon.

Wine Country Cottage in Healdsburg
Well located and priced studio. Perfect for me and my dog. The fenced yard is incredible for a dog and their own dog, Hurley is super friendly and calm. Tom and Erin were really helpful and easy to be around. They made this an ideal dog friendly location.

Sundog - EV - Walk to Beach & Food - Yard for Dog
Sundog cottage is lovely! We were so happy to find that it was even more beautiful in person than the pictures. Super clean, great kitchen, deck and backyard were perfect for our dogs and just relaxing and listening to the ocean. The linens are amazing and the beds comfy! Valerie went above and beyond as a host, even left us local eggs, butter and crackers. She was friendly and easy to communicate with. Sundog is a gem and we can’t wait to come back!

Downtown Retro Bungalow Dog Friendly
My stay at Allen's place was great. It was an easy walk to the dog park, a small grocery and lots of restaurants. What really stood out was how much he really meant "dog friendly". There were toys, a dog bed, blankets to cover the furniture, towels for muddy paws and more. And the fenced in backyard was just perfect. Also, he was super responsive to the one small hiccup I ran into. Overall, I would definitely stay again.

Inverness Writer's Den
Camille was accommodating! Super friendly and non intrusive. The space was exactly what we expected! We were so happy to have our dog with us as we explored the area. Would definitely come back again!

Private, dog friendly 3 bedroom bright wooded home
The house was perfect getaway for a relaxing spring break with my two tween kids and dog. It's definitely a place you want to cozy up in and read a book when it rains. It was decorated beautifully. The master bedroom was great, best night sleep and the little hidden loft was great for my kids. Did not miss having a TV, loved the record player and it offered us time to disconnect and play a lot of board games. However, wifi was strong when the kids did want to play/watch things on their tablets. Scenery around the house is stunning and it's close by the Sea Ranch Lodge if we wanted to go out for breakfast or dinner. Not too far from Stewarts Point General Store as well which was a cute spot. My kids loved the place so much they asked if we could move there!

Spectacular Vineyard View!! SPA, Close to Plaza!
Loved our stay and would be happy to come back on our next trip

2 BR/3 BD/full BT, whole suite, parking, near SFO
The stay met our expectations. Sean was very friendly, gave us a lot of tips and also provided drinks and snacks, which was a great gesture. The area is very quiet and well located. At no time did we feel unsafe and in particular the possibility of parking in the garage was very advantageous. Therefore, highly recommended for a short stay.

Top Quality Two Bedroom Home Near San Francisco
Lovely, clean house with anything you’d need. Great location — a block away from restaurants, local shops and the main bus line — but felt very private. Beautiful front garden.

Healdsburg Garden House
Very responsive and friendly host. The property was perfect for us with our one mid-size and one very little dog, i.e., fully fenced, large yard, safe, and clean. It was a comfortable home with multiple bedrooms and nice size kitchen and amenities for prepping home cooked meals. We'd absolutely stay there again.

Cozy Garden suite 2 Bedrooms 4 Beds 1 Bath Parking
Large place with a nice patio area, close enough for a walk to the beach or the park and I had a wonderful time there, grocery store within walking distance, was able to explore most of the city and the host was so sweet

Riverside Lodge House in Guerneville
Fantastic! Hot tub, pool, river access - what more do you need? The house was well equipped for bigger groups. Kitchen was decent for cooking group meals. Great grill too. River access is a 1 min walk across the road. We saw turtles and a mink on the river

Renovated Downtown with private yard
Great stay! Convenient to Napa and Sonoma wine country and to the coast as well! Would stay again!

Wine Country Escape with 4 King beds & hot tub!
Really enjoyed our stay here while visiting wineries in Sonoma and Napa! The place felt like home and was very well appointed with everything we needed. We brought our 1 year old son along and they had many baby items we were able to use and it was easy to keep the main living area pretty baby safe for a kiddo on the move. Location was great, quiet neighborhood but still close to many wineries and downtown Sonoma. Just be aware of strict noise policy at nighttime so don’t plan to use the hot tub/fire pit super late at night. Overall was a great stay and would stay again if we come back!
