Stayed at the property for four days in January, 2024. The house was clean and well appointed. Nothing too fancy but then again, we weren't here for fancy, we were here for the ocean and that we got plenty.
The view is just amazing and every day we gathered in the back to appreciate the sunset. We napped by the ocean, we took walks to a local part. Basically, we had a very relaxing vacation.

This was an excellent place for a group of us traveling from different area to come together. Convenient, STUNNING location. House was well stocked and we decided to cook in most meals to enjoy the ambiance and visit! I’d say as the property is a little older, you have the normal wear and tear expected… otherwise fabulous!

The initial impression was this place is a bit dated. But I love Mid Century Modern. It was perfect for a family wedding/reunion of family visiting from out of State. Very clean, beautiful ocean view.
Perfect setting to sit, laugh and reminisce.

We had the perfect stay!! As soon as my family entered the house I knew it would be a great stay based on their reaction. The view was spectacular, the neighborhood was fantastic and luckily the weather was beautiful for our stay. All of the amenities were there however we spent most our time in the back watching the wildlife, otters, seals, many birds including thousands of our favorites the pelicans. Make sure to bring your binoculars. We are already planning our next stay at Sunset Palisades.

If you are looking for a great place to stay with no frills, this is it. Wonderful location and great backyard to enjoy sunsets. House was built in 50s and it is a bit funky, but don't let the age fool you. It was perfect for our family weekend. There were bikes to use, and kayaks. Be advised that there are stairs to the water, bit the staircase was blocked off due to unsafe cliffs. We would rent again for sure!

Amazing Views
This was a great home for our stay and the location couldn't be better. The property was very clean and well stocked. Had use of beach chairs, bikes, barbeque, and many other items that really made our trip more enjoyable. The home was fully equipped and well stocked for cooking. The view from the backyard is amazing!!! Plenty of seating to enjoy sunsets and sunrises. Overall, this is a place I would stay at again.

Very old school house frozen in the late sixties. Comfortable and right on the water. Great tide pools below the house at low tide. There is a short surf break right out back but Shell Beach is a better option and a short walk. NO DISHWASHER!!!

The location is perfect. We loved sitting on the back patio drinking our morning coffee with the ocean waves crashing just over the lawn. Will stay here again!

The absolute best thing about this house are the ocean views. I could sit on the back deck all day and night, gazing at the sea. Also, there hiking trails nearby.
The house is definitely “retro” but I liked it. Comfy beds and furniture.

This house has outstanding views of the ocean and the backyard is the best spot in the house by far. The house is funky and fun with plenty of space, though it is very old and outdated. I wish it would have more simple updates like screens in the windows. However, the stay was very pleasant and the neighborhood is fantastic. Definitely would stay again!

The property was exactly as advertised. The ocean view is amazing, the house is comfortable and was big enough for the seven of us, and it was an easy walk to the beach and restaurants near by.

The house is clean and had all of the things we needed including beach chairs and a bbq. The view is spectacular and shell beach is just a short walk away. We sat on the deck and enjoyed the weather, wine and watching sea otters, dolphins and wales. We had a very nice time and the host is very friendly. Thank you! We will be back!

Pros: The location was amazing! Beautiful view of the ocean! Clean. The beds were like giant pillows. Very comfortable. The showerhead has an amazing setting that makes you feel like you are under a soft waterfall. There was a game that we played, "Quelf", so much fun. We laughed so much. Close enough to the grocery stores and restaurants. Great community. The backyard is as pretty as the pictures. Very relaxing to sit outside and enjoy the roaring of the waves.
Cons: As stated by others, the house is a bit dated and there is no sand (beach), just rocks, so we drove to the beach, but it was super close.

The reason to rent this home is for the incredible ocean view, with the ocean maybe 30 feet below the edge of the backyard. Sitting outside and listening to the waves is mesmerizing.
The house is clean but old. But old can also be charming. And since you spend most of your time in the backyard enjoying the view, it is a great escape.
This is probably better as a rental to adults because of the drop to the ocean (it is fenced but I would be concerned about young kids). From an adult perspective, the view makes it all worthwhile.

This home was absolutely stunning! We spent 4th of July weekend here. The pictures don’t do it justice. The views from the house were absolutely stunning. I can’t get over how beautiful the view was. The Private access to the ocean was so nice & relaxing. We saw dolphins and otters from the backyard. Mckenzi was a great host and very accommodating & responsive. The home is located in a very nice & quiet neighborhood. We used the kayaks in the garage & loved it. We also met the neighbors on the left side (they were kind & nice) everything was nice and clean if I could give this house 10 stars I would. We all slept very comfortable & enjoyed our stay. Thank you Mckenzi!

This property was perfect for a relaxing family weekend. My only regret is the beach has no sand, but is instead perfect for tide pool wandering at low tide. No problem, Pismo beach is minutes away and perfect. The view is truly fantastic and we would return in a heartbeat. Thanks, McKenzi !
