About this property
A Cool House, A Cool View
Sit back on the deck and enjoy the beautiful views of Moonstone Beach. Only a short walk to the sand for morning meditation, or a sunset stroll. This is a great spot for those who would rather walk than drive on their vacation, conveniently located between Cambria's West Village and Moonstone Beach. Come into town for some local art, dining and shopping. Bring your dog along, Cambria is very dog-friendly, and yours will love sunning on the wraparound deck, the single level spaciousness, and other creature comforts. There is WiFi, DVD/CD player. Ocean Views from almost every room, new carpet, a new Crate and Barrel high-top table with 4 chairs, a Gas BBQ for the perfect BBQ, private and quiet. Appropriately named, this is a cool house, with a really cool view!! Single level, short walk to Moonstone Beach or West Village, spectacular ocean views, deck, washer / dryer, 55 inch TV over the fireplace in livingroom, Tv in the master bedroom, VCR, WiFi Internet, gas BBQ, wood burning fireplace and garage.

The view is fantastic. Yes, the house is so cool, was spotless and well appointed, the neighborhood is so pretty. It does sit just above the highway so there is traffic noise during the day, but in the early morning and at night we could hear the surf, a beautiful sound to fall asleep by.
Spacious, clean. great location, loved the balcony and side garden.

We have stayed at this home a number of times over the years. This house has fabulous views with all the comforts you’ll need. It our favorite vacation home and our second stay here this year. We will definitely be back soon.
Space was exactly as shared. We loved hearing the ocean each night. It’s near a street that can be busy but this did not bother us. Neighbor across the street was warm and welcoming. Loved the garden and location was wonderful.
Absolutely loved this house. The deck looking at the ocean and the open windows in the living room made it the perfect place to not want to leave. 5min walk to moonstone beach was everything that we were looking for. Will be looking to stay here again for sure.
We have stayed here before and love the comfort and accessibility of this home. It's not on the beach, but the sound of the surf is magical, especially at night. IT's clean, well kept, and a really nice neighborhood.
Adorable house and neighborhood. Perfect for our quiet family. The highway noise wasn’t terrible, but had we wanted to spend more time on the deck, it might have been problematic.
We were very happy with our stay this year in Cambria. The house was clean, the kitchen recently remodeled, the layout perfect, and the view and sound of the waves at night just so relaxing and restorative. We also loved the neighborhood and closeness to the east village. We will return soon.
1st time renting a house. Have stayed on moonstone a dozen times in different hotels but this was the best with plenty of room , 2 bathrooms, full kitchen and a great view from the back patio
Great stay. The plaçe was spacious and has all amenities like. Full kitchen washing machine etc. Location was great also. No regrets whatsoever. I would note that the tvs need work to connect to Internet but not very important.

Lovely place - great view, short walk to beach, clean and spacious, well-equipped kitchen. My only comment is that it was hard to figure out how to use the TV - maybe provide clearer instructions and troubleshoot the system.

Relaxing
Good comfortable house. Wish we knew ahead of time the house was steps away from HWY 1. The walk to the beach was longer than advertised. Needs more glassware. We did relax.

The house is clean things are in good working order. The kitchen is fairly well stocked. There is only one knife so be prepared for that if you plan on cooking. This house sits above HWY 1 and there is a lot of road noise all thru the day and night I would recommend earplugs. Overall we had. Great stay.

Did we have a good overall stay? Absolutely! We have stayed in this home many times and always have a great stay.Was the vacation rental in a great location? Yes! In a quiet neighborhood, short walk to Moonstone Beach, and close to Main Street shops and amenities.Was the home clean and in good shape? Yes! Always spotless and well supplied.Was the vacation rental management staff helpful? Convenient contactless key delivery at Scenic’s shop on Main Street makes it quick and easy to get into the house on arrival. The office staff is there during regular working hours, and there is an emergency after hours phone line in case of any problems.
