(Previous Guest Comments about the Wine Down Cottage by the Sea)


“This home has been upgraded and maintained in the manner I would maintain my own home. It was immaculately appointed.”

“Very classy place! We wouldn't hesitate to stay here again.”

“The jacuzzi was awesome for warming up after an afternoon of tide pooling. We will definitely stay here again.”

“The house is scrupulously clean, furnished with comfortable and whimsical decor, and stocked with every conceivable convenience. We've rented many vacation homes with vrbo but have never enjoyed one more than this one.”

“We loved this home and it was perfect for our trip. The house was really comfortable for four people; we especially enjoyed cooking dinner in the immaculate kitchen. And our dog loved chasing after a tennis ball in the large side-yard!”

The host was super attentive and helpful. The house was cozy, comfortable and had everything a family of 4 needed to enjoy our stay. The cute little town with shops and restaurants was super close and we enjoyed everything Cambria had to offer including the gem of a find in the Covell Clydesdale ranch hidden just above town. Being a mom and used to all my gadgets and tools at home, I was very impressed with how thoughtful the host was with all that was available in the kitchen. Everything was also in good working order. Loved the beautiful touches of decor that made the house feel like a home. We absolutely loved the hot tub and fire pits too. It was great to have a relaxing soak after a long day of exploring, and safely enjoy the stars out at night. We will definitely come back to visit again!

A great house in Cambria!

We loved our stay at the Wine Down Cottage in Cambria!Great house with a nice big yard for the kids to play in. A hot tub for evening relaxation. A very short drive, or longer walk down the hill into town, and a very lovely home perfect for our family of four. The hosts were also very helpful leading up to and during our stay, very responsive to any questions we had. We look forward to going back!

I will keep this very short. Awesome location for the area. Great communication with the owner at anytime before and during the stay. Really nice, comfy cottage. Perfect for two and would be very comfortable and just right for up to four people. Very dog friendly.

Great Stay

We had a great stay at this lovely home in Cambria! The location was perfect—centrally located and close to everything. The house itself was clean, well-stocked, and had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. We especially loved the spacious backyard and the private side yard with the jacuzzi—such a relaxing touch.The only downside was that the outdoor furniture was quite dirty, and some was ripped which made it less enjoyable to sit outside and take in the beautiful surroundings. A quick refresh of the outdoor seating would make this place just about perfect!Overall, we enjoyed our stay.
