Very cute cottages, unattached to any other dwelling. Comfortable bed, nice amenities, and great communication from the owner/property manager. Easy and convenient and nice. I would happily stay again.
These cozy cottages are very efficient, clean and quiet. The beds are extremely comfortable. Lots of room to relax in and an outdoor patio for meals or just to enjoy - complete with barbeque and outdoor lights. Walk to the bay and enjoy your surroundings. Laundry next door. We highly recommend the cottages for a truly unique experience.
We had a great time, our Son book this for use. The property had everything you need. The bed was very comfortable, kitchen was well stocked. The car charger was a big plus when we arrived we were at 20% in the next morning we were fully charged. Two things that need attention are, there was a little mold around bottom of shower, also there no way to watch local news or channels there blocked. We would definitely stay again!!
Clean and comfortable. I was concerned when I learned its proximity to the town laundromat, but it wasn’t a problem at all. It was convenient to walk to groceries and entertainment. It was very quiet, except for when we carried on a bit at the baseball playoffs Would definitely recommend and would book again in similar circumstances.
These cottages are the best! This is our 3rd stay and each time fully enjoyed ourselves. Perfect kitchenette has all you need for light meals. Refrigerator keeps drinks and food cold and ready to use. Bed is comfy and spacious with enough bedding to stay warm or cool as you need. Property manager communicated with us before and during stay to make sure all was good. Located near several good spots to eat and good place to get a nice walk in. We'll be back soon!
We rented 3 side-by-side cottages for fun and relaxation in the Morro Bay area. The cottages are well-provisioned, easily accommodating three people each. A full kitchen, bathroom with shower, and a lovely patio is part of each cottage. Within walking distance are a park, a beach, a small grocery store, several restaurants and shops, and a laundromat. Nearby recreation includes hiking, kayaking, and beaches. These cottages helped to make a great vacation for our family!
Very nice small house. Very clean and close to restaurants. Quiet at night!

We have stayed here before and enjoyed it. Very conveniently located by Montana De Oro, Los Osos, and Morro Bay Rock. We like going up to Cambria and walking Moonstone. Can't be the price and the managers always provide info in a prompt manner.
Very clean unit; excellent location. However, the accommodation experience was more campground experience. The description of the unit on line was confusing; the outcome did not meet our needs or expectations. At booking, it clearly stated it was a 2day minimum booking requirement, but did not correct my entry for one night and created lots of confusion. The beautiful view was worth the stay
The cottage is small but perfect for the 2 of us plus one dog! They DID have one luggage rack and an entire closet with hangers, which we appreciated because we were there for 4 nights. The neighborhood is VERY friendly! The walk to the bay was only 8 minutes with a pooch who smells everything. Great pub {Beerwood?} with good food, great coffee shop, Thai food. We missed the bakery behind us because it's only open Fri-Monday. Short drive to Montana de Oro and Morro Bay. We loved it and will stay here if we get to return. I brought extra kitchen towels but prob didn't need them.
My husband and I (and frenchie) loved this cute bungalow! King size bed, AC, quiet neighbors, very good shower stall, and great location. Great communication with the manager too!
