This house was absolutely perfect for 4 couples. Everyone loved having their own bathroom. The house was very spacious & the views were spectacular. Would definitely recommend this house for future travel.
Our family enjoys a holiday meet-up every year. First time in Cambria. This property was the perfect (and hard to find) 4 ensuite bedrooms and a very cozy large room for an early celebration. Walked the boardwalk, strolled the town, and visited Hearst Castle. Highly recommend.
Walking distance to Moonstone Beach, you really can’t beat the location. The house was perfectly setup for entertaining our extended family. The upstairs balcony was perfect for watching the sunset with a cocktail. Would totally stay here again as 4 bedroom places up there are a premium.
8 of us adult girl cousins spent 4 nights and 5 days at this lovely home. The home was comfortable and the location perfect for us. Dinning was in walking distance and the town of Cambria less than a 10 minute drive. We all had a great time!

Home was nicely situated close to the ocean with a beautiful view. Bedrooms each had their own bathroom which was a bonus with mixed company. Living area was cozy and wide open, kitchen well stocked. Communication with property management was good.
Had a fantastic time. The house was great and the view was amazing. Had dinner at Sow ’s Ear and music at the Lodge. This was everyone’s first time beside me. I love Cambria. Memories we made.

This house was amazing for my family’s vacation in Cambria. The house is comfortable for a large group with each bedroom having its own bathroom, and a large open plan kitchen/living area. With the location to close to Moonstone beach, we were able to walk to restaurants and we walked to the little main part of town. So nice to not have to drive to get around! I also really appreciated use of the garage to park our cars.
All the reviews pretty much tell you the negatives and positives. It is an old property and at the ocean so you have mold (back porch) and stuck screens. The garage lights were out. No paper towels but I brought some. The bed was comfortable, which is important. We were looking for a great location and enough room for 4 couples. This was perfect. It was my 70th birthday with all my children so I was very happy. We want to do this every year so that should tell you something! Moonstone Beach is magical!
This house was perfect for our Dec. get away with friends. With 4 couples it was great to each have a bedroom with attached bathroom. The view is amazing, and the sunsets gorgeous. We enjoyed walking along the boardwalk and/ or beach which is just across the road.
The house was well equipped. I brought my own hairdryer which was good, since I did not see one in the smaller upstairs bathroom and my friend in the smaller bedroom downstairs also did not see one.
The only reason we would not give this house 5 stars is that the kitchen and bathrooms are from 90’s or early 2000’s, but everything was well maintained and clean.
We really liked the location of the property. It’s right near moonstone beach. It has a great view however the windows were really dirty. We enjoyed the size of the kitchen, dining & living area. We appreciated the 4 bedrooms & bathrooms. We were awakened at 7:00 am on Tuesday by a high pitched alarm. We couldn't find what it was so we had to call the 24 hour service number. A repair man came out and fixed a water leak behind the refrigerator. The alarm was a leak detector. It was fixed quickly. Overall we liked the property.
There were 8 of us (4 siblings and their spouses) that stayed at the Cambria house for a week. The house had 4 bedrooms each with its own bathroom, so it was perfect for us. There are two bedrooms downstairs and two bedrooms upstairs. The kitchen, dining room and living room are also upstairs. The view of Moonstone Beach from the living room is beautiful! The view would have been better, if the windows were clean. All of the windows and sliding glass doors need to be cleaned! The sliding glass doors were extremely difficult to open. The wheels need to be replaced.

Reviewer Comments:
Our group of four couples were delighted by each having our own double bedroom with private, en-suite bath. The upstairs King is light-filled and roomy. The upstairs Queen has an extra door that would allow the bathroom to serve as a shared bath with easy access to the living, dining and central fireplace area. The downstairs King is cozy with a fireplace, as is the downstairs Queen, also with fireplace.The living area has spectacular ocean views and ample seating for eight adults. The huge dining table is perfect for a large group for dining or games. The location offers easy access to Hwy 1, just up the hill. Walk across the street to access the coastal boardwalk and stroll to several excellent restaurants. We learned too late that the shuttle to and from the Cambria Pines Lodge Christmas Market and Lights now has four stops along Moonstone Beach, including one a block from the house. In short, this was a perfect choice for a group of friends sharing a holiday together. (Oh, yes — check-in and check-out were super easy!)

Not great as had to problem solve water main shut off, 2 BR’s exterior slinging glass windows were seized. No direction for fireplace. Batteries on TV & VCR we expired. No house book! Fortunately the repair man came quickly & had a great attitude. Between him & my husband worked together to resolve issues. The house needs any kind of espresso appliance ( stove top or electric). Milk frothier & coffee grinder needed for those who need a good coffee before leaving the house. A bit dated used furnishings. Too many throw pillows & no place to store while using bed. No hand or Stand- up mixer at all. We are big time cookin’ people a Cordon Bleu’ graduate who had to bring cast iron skillet. Great access to any type of activity. Just felt like the house truly needed a fresh lift & update.

Reviewer Comments:
A small group of old friends met up for a weekend away, midway between LA and the Bay Area. The house location was perfect for dinner on the balcony overlooking the ocean, followed by walking across the street to watch the sunset from the beach. The Cambria farmers market on Fridays was a perfect stop to pick up dinner needs to cook at the house. Morning walks on the beach , the town of Cambria just up the street, plus an easy 30 minute drive to Paso Robles for amazing wine tasting all made for an incredible weekend. The house was easy to access and had everything we needed for our stay. As an added bonus, this was the first rental in Cambria (and I’ve stayed in many) that had instant hot water, making washing dishes and showering much quicker. We would happily stay in this house again.
