Lovely spotless clean house,stunning ocean views, gorgeous sunsets. Very responsive management and owner. The neighborhood is very hilly and the teens walked up and back to the beach. Those of us with older knees and too much beach paraphernalia had to drive and pay the $10 to park. The house was the perfect place for a awesome CA beach family vacation. knees and to much beach paraf

We cannot tell you how much we enjoyed our stay at Dillon Beach.. The house was beyond perfect for us and the location was amazing! The property rental company even provided a little Thanksgiving welcome present which saved me since I forgot the sparkling cider! Thank you for the stay we will be back.

The Lookout worked beautifully for our family get together after not seeing each other for almost 1 1/2 years. The open floor plan was great for cooking, chatting and eating, playing games, etc. walk to the beach was easy. Unfortunately the week we were there was exceptionally windy which limited our beach time. That being said we had a great time and the house served us well.

Clean, with all the amenities. A beautiful view, just a short walk to the beach for leash-free dog fun. Everything we could have wanted. Comfortable, bright, lots of fresh air. Really enjoyed our stay. A couple of nitpicks: the info on where the parking is could be clearer (driveway is located on the street below), and the house can get chilly in the winter. The space heater downstairs is essential. Would stay here again, for sure!

Perfect location for Dillon Beach. Easy walk to beach and the all important General Store. Ample parking which was key for the summer when the beach crowds arrive. The parking is also great if you have a larger vehicle, which can be tight with other Dillon properties. House is clean and comfortable. Views from balcony are gorgeous. Nicely updated kitchen. The downstairs was a perfect spot for kids to have they own space to play while the grownups relax upstairs. Will definitely return.

Spent most of the weekend watching the waves...that was when we were not eating, playing games, or walking on the beach. We wish we could have stayed longer!

Kitchen is completely stocked with spices, pots etc for any sort of cooking. It is by far the cleanest, most immaculately kept rental I have ever stayed in worldwide (and I've stayed in a LOT). I'd love to have their cleaner for my house... Would definitely stay again.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We had a wonderful stay at "The Lookout." It was our first time in Dillion Beach. You can tell that the owners put in a lot of nice detail in their renovated beach home. It was walking distance to the beach and the General Store. We'll be back!

I am very much looking forward to returning to this wonderful beach home. We've been taking beach vacations for many years. We usually stay in Dillon for our dogs and the beach that allows them to run without leashes. This cozy cabin was an absolute delight! Probably the best view in the area that allows for all day viewing and sunsets that are amazing. Perfectly equipped kitchen, absolutely clean and spotless, throughout. Comfortable, cozy bedrooms and very modern bathrooms. Couldn't think of anything that might be missing. Thank you again for your jewel of a cabin. *** I loved reading the house binder which included the personal history of the cabin and all the restorations that were done to bring this home to its current modern and dazzling look!

Nice area, very cute. Not owned by an indici but a rental company that uses VRBO as a third party. We wanted to reschedule due to family coming down with Covid and another elder in the ER but was denie. We even purchased insurance but it didn’t apply because it was through VRBO and not them. I still don’t understand but did not have the time or mental energy to fight on the matter. Overall nice place. Just not the best customer service and the insurance situation was very unfair to customers.
