Wonderful Retreat in Half Moon Bay
Our family of 7 (2 couples, 3 singles) really enjoyed our stay. There was plenty of space for everyone and great common areas for us to all be together. The kitchen is especially beautiful! We loved spending time on the deck grilling as well. The host was kind and responsive.

The location to the marina and the beach is excellent. The views from the kitchen are better than the pictures. It is a very nice location for a family gathering. The host was very responsive during checkin and throughout the stay. We will be back!

We had such a wonderful stay! The home is beautiful spacious and clean. The only thing we noticed was that the bedroom next to the kitchen could use a little more privacy-something like a barn door or sliding door would make it perfect. Overall , we loved it and we would definitely come back. Thank you

Amazing home.
My multi generational family and I were here for a wedding. John’s home was exactly what we were hoping for. Lots of room to spread out. He was exceptionally fast at returning any communications. I would love to come back sometime. The views are amazing. Thank you.

Destination Graduation with extended family
We rented this house for 9 family members so we could attend my daughter’s graduation from college. We wanted to be in walking distance of the beach (kids did Pillar Point surf camp one week!), restaurants, a grocery store, and a coffee spot. This hit all the things! It was spacious and clean and the kitchen was great. We saved a lot of money by cooking at home!
