Adorable Beach Cottage only a block to the beach and a short walk to downtown

Great location. You can walk down the street to a beach access stairway. We also walked to Sea Shanty with our small dog for dinner one night. Pet friendly. Nice patio with a fire pit to hang out at after a day at the beach. Living room with streaming television. Check in and out were easy. I would stay again.

This house turned out to be perfect for our stay in Cayucos. We brought our dogs so it worked out perfectly as the back yard is nice and large. There are two neighbors with dogs who would bark at the back fence when our dogs were out there. One was a golden retriever and didn’t bark too much. The other was, we think, a German Shepard which sounded aggressive and we were worried if he got through the fence what might happen to our dogs! Although I mentioned our dogs from the beginning, they forgot to charge us the dog fee so after I thought I paid for our stay I got a nasty gram that I had to pay more ASAP or face cancellation (or something to that effect). Then, when the date was a couple of days away, I got my confirmation that stated “no pets.” I contacted them right away and they drilled me on my dogs, i.e., breed, weight, age. I was worried they were going to deny our stay the way they approached the situation. Not a good feeling. The house had a lot of kitchen items but I was surprised there was no can opener. Also, I saw on another review (in January) that the blinds didn’t work in the master bedroom and they still didn’t work while we were there. There was no soap or shampoo provided nor extra toilet paper. For the price we paid these small things should have been included, especially the TP. Also lightbulb out in lamp by bed. We liked the house, location and backyard for the dogs. Would stay here again if we are back in the area.

Great, short getaway after Christmas, but the house shows some wear beyond just the usual hodge-podge quirkiness of a beach rental.Lots of positives: The bed mattresses were super comfortable. The house had all amenities as described. Large kitchen for such a small house. Great having a washer/dryer available to use in the house. Short walk to beach.Just a couple of issues:- Back of house with the two bunk beds, washer/dryer, and second bathroom (with the shower) were not well heated (too separated from the living room furnace). Wouldn't be an issue in the summer, but is one for the wintertime (although we didn't use the bunk beds).- Blinds in the main bedroom (king bed) were broken (louvers would not close all the way). As a result, we had to use a blanket to cover the window for privacy and to block the flashing Christmas lights from house the next door. Shared this with the property manager who was not aware these were broken, but they said they would address this after our stay.

Short walk to beach. Fenced back yard for dogs. Nicely equipped. Nice clean towels. Would come back to stay again! Very enjoyable place!

wonderful little place for your family & pets. the yard was perfect. While it wasn't super close to the down town area, it didn't really matter. The not so secret hidden gem of this property is the public beach access at the end of 12th street. Amazing and very private, we loved it!

Great house and location.

Clean, cozy and close to the public access steps to the beach!! Hope to stay there again soon!!

We had a great visit. 2 blocks from beach and outdoor shower was awesome for family that likes to surf! We appreciated being able to bring our dog as well. Nice to have a backyard! Thanks. We will be back!

Overall, things were great. The house was very cute (just as the photos showed) and the location was fabulous (close to the freeway, walking distance to the beach, and a short ride into town). Not giving it 5 stars for the following reasons: while the house was generally clean, I expected the house to be extremely clean given the inflated cleaning fee that each guest is charged. All of the kitchen cabinet doors and drawers were dirty on the outside by the handles, as were the bedroom, bathroom, and front and back doors by knobs. There were cobwebs in the kitchen and back bathroom. The plastic kitchen tablecloth was also dirty & sticky. In addition, the front door, back door, and rear bathroom doors were extremely loud when opened & closed. Luckily, we had some WD-40 & resolved the issues. Finally, the fire pit tank did not have any gas. Like I said, minor things. The decor, size, and location made up for the small things. Would definitely go back.

We had a lovely time enjoying Christmas with our family at “our” little beach house. Quite easy walking to the beach and into the town of Cayucos. Our dog appreciated the fact that the cottage was pet friendly. Cute spot! Thank you for the memories!
