Reviewer Comments:
We spent fabulous week in this house with family from the midwest. The kitchen is well-equipped and the house is clean and comfortable. We spent many hours out on the deck enjoying the fantastic view and beautiful weather. We even watched a Spacex launch. The only downsides are a double bed rather than a queen in one of the bedrooms and very limited parking. We’ve already planned two more stays at this beautiful house for 2026.

The house is comfortable, nicely layed out, with awesome views of the ocean from most every room. We really enjoyed sitting out on the deck. The location is great, in a quirt neighborhood, near the trails and close to downtown Cambria. Enjoyed our time in this house immensely; we will try to reserve "Whale Watchers" again next Summer.

Reviewer Comments:
This home is so well-kept and beautifully appointed and decorated. The view is gorgeous. Only slight disadvantage is the lack of parking (the garage is small and the driveway is short; don't bring a large vehicle if you can help it; there is roadside parking about 3 house lengths away). Having the bedrooms all downstairs allows family "vacation mess" to be contained and the main floor and loft to feel company ready and serene with three different conversation or get-away areas all with a spectacular ocean view! Thank you to our wonderful "host-ghosts"! Your TLC was noticed.
