The neighborhood was amazing! Wild turkeys walking all through the streets and front yards and the deer doing the same. when looking north at the mountains you feel you're at a mountain village then turn around and your at the ocean coast. Fantastic, we had a great time.
We had an amazing stay at this home! It was impeccably clean and had clearly been recently updated while still maintaining its original charm. The kitchen was fully stocked with appliances and dishes, making it easy to cook meals, and the beds were incredibly comfortable. The updated garage was a great bonus—it featured a dartboard, shuffleboard, bar, and TV, making it a fun space to hang out. Plus, the home is located in a lovely, charming neighborhood. We absolutely loved our stay and would highly recommend it!
Clean, compact property a short walk to the Fiscalini Ranch Preserve, and situated close to beautiful Moonstone Beach. Deer and wild turkeys roam the neighborhood. The king size bed upstairs was very comfortable. Nice and quiet location to rest up and recharge.

A very nice, pleasant vacation rental. A few blocks from the beach, lots of nice street to walk. The 3rd time I’ve rented in Cambria, this place was the best! Very comfortable. One thing: no fenced area for my pup to hang out. No dishwasher but not a prob for me. I enjoyed my stay very much.

The pictures don't do this house justice. Super cozy and the upstairs loft is a dream!. Just a few minutes walk to both Fiscalini Ranch and coastal access. Bring your walking shoes and be prepared for hills! Overall, we were very pleased with the home. Beds are UBER comfortable! Thank you for making my birthday trip special :)

Reviewer Comments:
The map does not show that the house is on a steep north slope. The dusty covers were still on the outdoor furniture so first impressions were not the best. But the house was very clean with stylish furniture and well-equipped kitchen. The main bedroom is upstairs which could be a problem for some. The walk to the reserve and the ocean was amazing and close if you don’t mind steep hills.

Reviewer Comments:
The house was very clean and well maintained. The house layout is good with a bedroom downstairs, and the steps were wide for a comfortable climb. The rooms were very spacious, and the area was very quiet and restful, close enough for a short drive downtown and/or the beach. The 2 TVs were about 65” making it very comfortable for the family to view in the living room with that large lounge sofa and the main bedroom upstairs. There is an oscillating fan upstairs and many windows throughout the house for cross ventilation. The stove is electric (taking some getting used to), and the BBQ had not been cleaned in a while. The bathroom downstairs would benefit from handicap railing mimicking the bathroom upstairs. The 1 car garage has been converted to a playroom. The driveway is a challenge with its steepness and lack of lighting, but there is a flight light readily available for the walk down the driveway. Since there is no parking on the street, it would be nice to have a parking spot at the bottom of the driveway as an additional parking option. Overall, great place to stay! Enjoyed our time there.
This property is lovely and clean. Not planning to have to work on the trip but my husband got slammed with unplanned work. Thankfully there is a very nice desk area in the upper loft with good chair. The only other tables in the house are a snack counter and a coffee table. Having to work at either would have ended up hurting his back. That was much appreciated.
The house is in a nice, quiet area but is still a quick drive to town for any amenities and/or meals.
The kitchen has appropriate pots, pans, dishes and silverware. But no colander (my husband’s pet peeve) There were items like oil and salt/pepper that were most likely left behind by other people. Toilet paper supply good but no tissue at all. Small low quality emergency toiletries are provided.
No dishwasher so all dishes dirtied have to be washed by hand including any dishes you use the last morning. You may want to eat breakfast out on departure day.
The house is in good repair. The Heat/AC worked well. Decent furniture. Living room skylight is peeling. Fridge is nice, big. Cooktop is old induction but working. Washer/dryer are very old water/elec wasting machines. In a gorgeous area with extreme water shortages it’s upsetting that landlords don’t have new HE machines that help the planet. Sheets don’t stay on bed. Elastic is shot. They need items that turn a decent stay into a lovely one. New appliances, sheets, paper goods needed. Decent toiletries a plus. Otherwise a nice place.

Reviewer Comments:
My 86-year-old mother was with us. She’s in good shape but the house is on such a steep hill that walking in the neighborhood wasn’t possible. And I had to place a chair in front of the step on the deck as it is impossible to see when you are walking out the door. The internet didn’t work. We had to go into town to buy bath soap and extra toilet paper. The floor wasn’t clean. It’s an very small place. Very basic. But it is priced with this in mind, I think. It’s very reasonable for what you get and it’s just a very short drive to the beach, park, preserve, and into town. I highly suggest someone put a strip of contrasting material on the edge of that first step. Also, there were lots of huge cobwebs in the garage which was off-putting.

The house had ample space to relax. The kitchen was equipped for the amount of cooking we wanted to do, and the area was quiet and relaxing. I would happily stay again!
Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities, communication
Staying in this property made me want to retire in Cambria. It is such a great neighborhood with both a forest and beach feel. I loved how it had a really big couch for the whole family!
House was immaculately clean although we had to wait 40 minutes to check in. Kitchen was very well appointed except for scratched Teflon pans. Upstairs king suite is lovely but downstairs bedroom has comfy queen and useless sofabed/couch, leaving no place for clothes except a few cubbies in the closet. Towels were plentiful but poor quality.

Located near trailhead for Fiscalini Reserve was our charming rental. It has two distinct living areas. On the first floor, bedroom, bathroom and garage makeover with couch and bar. The living room had a large couch and TV. Upstairs was a larger bedroom suite with bathroom and open lofted area. Plenty is space four people. Kitchen is completely updated. Great front area to relax, have drinks or dinner outside. Lots of wildlife to view from patio alone. Highly recommend.
