4.5 Bedrooms, 3 Baths, 2 Kitchens, 180 degree views and a 'Man Cave'
About this house rental
Located in Bodega Bay, this lovely house for $363 per night is a fantastic choice for your next break. This is a "Family Friendly" House. Great for socializing. There have been far too many 'multi-generational' parties and celebrations here to count. The HOUSE features: - UPPER (Main) Floor has Three Bedrooms, Two Baths and a bonus Sun Room we call the 'lady cave' that has a reading chair and futon couch. - LOWER (Ground) Floor is a separate Studio apartment with its own private entrance and is complete with full kitchen and full bath. We have it set up 'man cave' style with two TV's, a pool table and hide-a-bed. - Panoramic, almost 180 degree views from the main level. You can see from Point Reyes in the South all the way through Bodega Bay, Doran Beach and Bodega Harbor to the North. - Easy five (5) minute stroll to Doran Beach. You arrive at Doran Beach on the South end where to the left are the rocks and tide pools (at low tide) and to the right the full two miles of the beach. - Full Southern exposure in the living room, dining area, kitchen, and Master bedroom. - Large rear deck with seven (7) person hot tub, patio table and gas bar-b-que. - Private rear yard behind the deck - we believe that is one of only two in the entire subdivision. Great for a little quiet time or for those of you traveling with dogs. Our GOLF COURSE SUBDIVISION neighborhood features: - Public golf course. Bring your clubs and play the course known lovingly as 'The poor man's Pebble Beach.' But call ahead and try to get a morning tee time so you don't get caught trying to play in the afternoon winds. - Public restaurant and bar called the 'Bluewater Bistro.' Just a short walk withing the subdivision from our place. The views are great, especially from the bar. - Public playground for the little ones. Next door to the bar and restaurant. - Easy walk from our house to the beach. About 5 minutes. The house was built in the early 1970's and we love that vibe as well as the family friendly vibe mentioned above. Some of the recent upgrades we have done: 1. Arcade Table - Spring 2019. Our previous one served us and the renters for seven years, but we felt it was time to get a new one. 2. Kenmore Elite Refrigerator for Main Kitchen - Spring 2019. 3. All new flooring through out the main house - Fall 2018. 4. Main living room entertainment system . Upgraded the DISH system to voice-activated and added an external drive for recorded movies and shows. - Spring 2018. 5. Club Chairs for the Arcade Table - Fall 2018. 6. Lady Cave Futon - Fall 2018. 7. Man Cave Hide-a-bed - Fall 2018. 8. Bar-b-Que - Fall 2023. 9. Entryway lighting - Fall 2018. 10. High Speed USB Charger / Outlets.

Great location and the house was perfect for our family thanksgiving.
My only observation was the number of bed rooms is a little bet of a stretch but it worked out.
Thank you for making it possible.

When contacted Jonathan was able to get BBQ grill replaced within 2 days. House was spacious with unbelievable views. Wish man cave was connected to inside of house. If you have a dog verify that the dog run fence has been replaced. Dated house but it was in our price range

House is located in a beautiful neighborhood with a view of the ocean and golf course. Convient little store/coffee at the golf course. The house is nice size with 3 bdrms upstairs and a sunroom with a futon that we utilize as a room for sleeping. There are 2 nice size bathrooms upstairs. Kitchen is fully stocked so there was plenty to use for cooking. There is a propane bbq on the deck but we decided not to use it was not burning evenly. The Man Cave downstairs was utilized for sleeping. It has a kitchen with mini fridge, stove and closet with lots of linens for the couch which pulled out to a bed. There were not much cookware downstairs but I assumed maybe it was all upstairs. We never cook downstairs. Overall it was big, roomy, and worked for us.

We had a beautiful stay in Bodega. Location was great and size of home was awesome. Plus, we could have our dog. Plenty of sleeping places, lots to do. Arcade game, pool table, views, walks, hot tub… the hot tub did not look clean. I did not even get in. I was really looking forward to it. I’m not sure the bedding was clean. The blankets and pillows were so old, the bedding was very uncomfortable. Some of the teens pulled out closet bedding to make up the futons. 2 of them heeded my advice and washed everything first. 2 of them didn’t, and 2 weeks home from vacay are still tending to rashes from an unknown breakout. We guess both girls reacted to dirty closet bedding.
The floors in corners were dusty, and the home smelled of mold. As most coast homes do, but this is extra. I was not going to review the home, but the email invite prompted me too. My hubby made a good point about re booking. As least we know what to expect… we most likely won’t return.

Great location. And this house was family/kid friendly! Easy walk or drive to the beach.
It’s definitely 3 regular bedrooms plus 1.5 areas for additional sleeping arrangements. We had 6 adults and 4 children - plenty of space. Fun!

The description of the place was accurate. It was nice and had great amenities like the pool table and the balcony and the spa it was good for a family but What it did not say was that everything was falling apart or broke. We couldn’t go into the backyard, which is one of their focal points for how great the place was because the fence was literally falling over a huge missing board with a hole in the fence and the gate was so warped it would not close, the beds were extremely uncomfortable, except for the master bedroom that was comfortable the dishwasher had broken drawers inside of it and the trash cans were full of trash when we got there.

This was our second stay at this home. It is perfect for two families. There are plenty of sheets, towels, pillows and blankets. Everything is provided. Just bring food. Kitchen has all the dishes, utensils and pots you need. The hot tub is huge. The kids will love the “man cave” as there is a pool table and two tvs. We love this home!

We enjoyed our stay at this home in Bodega Bay. The house comfortably accommodated our family and we enjoyed the amenities such as the pool table, hot tub, and game console. The view from the kitchen and family room is terrific, with a panoramic view of the bay and ocean. We enjoyed lots of hiking and eating fresh seafood during our stay.

Clean house. Well appointed kitchen! Gorgeous views! Hot tub.
Big bedrooms.
Comfortable living room.
Its simple as the owner says but had everything we needed and more.
The hard drive in the living room is a bit loud. Didnt bug us.
The tv has a quirk, but we had a millenial with us who figured it out.
Thank you for a relaxing vacation! We hope to come back.

All dishes had to be washed before use, dressers drawers dirty so did not use, ,gate in backyard broken and wind made it bang all night, no gutters on back so dripping at night during rain, looks like owner is in process of repairs but overall condition is poor. A group of 5 quilters and we did have a good time but would not rent again.

Had my 92 yr old mother with us. She uses a walker. gave that information and asked how many stairs into the house. Had no idea there were a couple more once inside. Nor that there was a step down into the master. Also didn't realize that the Man Cave was outside access until I started looking at reviews. And no walk-in shower in main house was a problem for Mom as she can't get her legs up over the side of a tub. That was my mistake for not asking.
However, all in all it was a great place. Views were awesome. The size of the house was perfect. It is a great house as long as there aren't physical limitations. And Mom got to look at the ocean!

This property is in a nice location, close to beach access, and very clean. Be aware that there are MANY stairs so if older or physically challenged it would be difficult. Man Cave only has access from outside which was a bummer. Amenities were great and property manager was prompt in responding to questions.

House is fantastic, lots of space to play and relax. Hot tub was awesome and had ample space for non hot tubers to sit outside and chit chat. I loved the view and sunsets the most it’s 180 degree view the 4 adult men in the group loved the vintage video game table, because it had a gazillion games from their childhood AND they could play against each other while sitting down (we are old!)🤣 the beds are good size, firm, not very comfy in our opinion, but lots of linens, blankets to keep us warm. Kitchen was well stocked. Open floor plan for living areas. Furniture was comfortable. We enjoyed our stay.

Our family loved staying here. Was the perfect house for our last minute vacation. Hot tub was great, loved the pool table and arcade table. Bed was very comfortable. Great views of the water. Would absolutely love to stay again.

The view and layout from this home is amazing. There are a lot of great ways to enjoy a stay from the hot tub to the pool table (which can only be reached from the outside...which meant not being able to use the "man cave" as a bedroom for our group.) The "lady cave" is really just a sun porch without window coverings. There is no way it would be warm enough for a winter stay even with the space heater offered. The kitchen has a lot of great gadgets and is well equipped. Parts of the kitchen could use a deep clean and you need to bring foil, baggies or tupper ware for leftovers as there really isn't any way to store those. Word of warning, there is a step down into the master bedroom and there is no visual transition. Maybe black tape or a rug would help? Took a hard fall the first night. Overall, it's a decent value. But with an almot $300 cleaning fee, it's more expensive than it initially looks.

We all had an amazing week enjoying Bodega Bay! Our rental beach house was the perfect size for our group of 10 people, ranging from ages 1 to 65, and 4 dogs! We didn't think we could find an affordable house with such a great location, but this home was it! The neighborhood was beautiful, and such a close walk to the ocean. The guys even enjoyed a round of golf on the golf course surrounding the neighborhood! The jacuzzi, pool table, piano, and game table were hits too! Thank you Jonathan for your great communication too! If you're looking for an affordable home to enjoy Bodega Bay, look no further!

Where was the 4th bedroom?
Property advertised 4.5 bedrooms AND a man cave. There were 3 bedrooms! Man cave was not a bedroom! This did create an issue for us!

We had a wonderful time in Bodega Harbor at Jonathan's lovely well-stocked home. The roomy layout offered plenty of space for our crew of 7. We loved all the amenities, including multiple TVs, a pool table, hot tub, and grill. The house is also perfectly located on a hill with views of the ocean and near beautiful hikes. Jonathan was kind and responsive to random questions throughout our stay. We will definitely visit again! Thanks again, Jonathan!

This house has a lot of space for it's comparatively very low nightly rate. The kitchen is not fancy, but adequate. They should add a few more various sized serving bowls. Master bed is very çomfortable, I can't speak to the other 2 beds. 'Man-cave' blowup mattresses had leaks and man-cave fridge was blowing warm air. Overall house just needs a quick going thru for repairs. Spa was awesome and works great and the back deck is a pleasant lounging area with the cool breeze and warm sun. Our family enjoyed the space and our time there even with a couple rainy days. We did not manage to locate the tide pools referred to, but maybe tide needed to recede further. The beach goes on forever and the various paths we took to get there were moderate if you're in decent shape. Bring your hiking shoes/sneakers for the hike up and down the hilly neighborhood streets and paths. Thanks for a pleasant stay♥️

Tweens/teens/adults all had a good time at this property! The kids were introduced to PacMan and the adults lived their nostalgic video-arcade days. Beds were comfortable, the hot water was plentiful, views were beautiful. Easy walk to the golf course. Check-in instructions were accurate and easy to follow.
