Ocean Front in Montara, CA

Ocean Front in Montara, CA

This house lived up to its billing and then some. The view of the Pacific is just mesmerizing. The photos of the house in the listing do not try to oversell anything, they don't have to. The location is great, just minutes away from just about anything. The views are wonderful. And the house itself - as far as amenities, you'll have everything you need. Plenty of sheets and towels, the beds are comfortable, the kitchen is very well equipped with quality cookware, dishes, utensils, etc. The house is well furnished, with plenty of seating for dining and just relaxing. Nancy and Gary were exceptional hosts and gave us some great advice for shopping, site seeing, restaurants, and local natural areas for bird and wildlife viewing. Not to mention that they are just great people. We were there from mid-Sep to mid-Oct. On many a day we never left the house, sitting on the deck watching for whale spouts, which we saw on a regular basis. (Hint - bring your binoculars. What looks like a big splash with unaided eye may reveal a whale leaping out of the water or tail slapping when viewed with binoculars, or with the host's telescope on the deck.) We thoroughly enjoyed our time there and recommend it without hesitation.

It's a wonderful place to stay - being on the cliff overlooking the ocean and the lighthouse and the small beach - can't be beat. Gary and Nancy are perfect hosts - they were so kind and thoughtful. Truly an incredible month in a great place.

Great Thanksgiving At the Beach

Great Thanksgiving At the Beach

The home is beautiful and the views of the ocean from the bluff are spectacular. Nancy and Gary are warm and welcoming. The 4 star rating on cleanliness is due to there having been a lot of clutter in the bathrooms. The showers were full of open/unused product and the bathroom drawers were equally filled with opened toothpaste, partially used bars of soap, used disposable razors, tooth brushes etc. We booked the house for an entire week and hoped to be able to easily unpack and utilize bathroom space. We had to clear things out to do that. Same for the kitchen. A lot of opened/paritally used items in the fridge, limited pantry space due to the same. The 4 stars on location is due to the fact that the house is located just off the busy highway, which is convenient for driving, but the highway has heavy traffic at times and does not have much of a shoulder, sidewalks or paths. Thus, to the extent you want to leave the house to go to areas where beach access if available, the hiking trails, nearby coffee, etc. you really have to drive. Walking (especially with children) is really not easy or enjoyable.

Breathtaking Views

Breathtaking Views

The property is immaculate and the views can not be described. The house has more than enough room and extra amenities as in steam shower, massage chair and gas fireplace! The owners stayed in contact welcomed us with a personal sign and recommended numerous local restaurants. The experience could not have been better. Well if we would have been able to stay longer perhaps!

Montara getaway

Montara getaway

The views from the house are spectacular! Nancy greeted us with a precious welcome sign and nice overview of the home. The kitchen and dining in areas are quite large, and the bedrooms comfortable. Front bedroom gets quite a bit of traffic noise from adjacent, heavily traveled road. I'd offer that based on rental fees, I would recommend better towels and seating for more than two outside to enjoy the view. We had to pull a dining chair and office chair for the four of us to sit out on the deck with a glass of wine. The area is great to explore..enjoyed the coastal tidal pools, bought fish from nearby harbor for dinner, and enjoyed The Press for great nearby breakfast.

Amazing. The pictures do not capture the full beauty and tranquility of the home. Nancy’s artwork, eclectic furnishings and the proximity of the ocean/bluff’s make this a destination point, it’s so much more than just a rental.

Beautiful Retreat by the Ocean

Beautiful Retreat by the Ocean

We would like to thank Nancy and Gary for the time we could be in their beautiful house overlooking the ocean. This view is a scenic as it gets with waves breaking over the rocks, lighthouse flashing at night and pelicans hovering over the water. The place has everything we could possibly need - from a modern kitchen to beautiful art on the walls. While appearing to be at the very end of land, it is literally minutes from civilization. We appreciate our friendly and welcoming hosts.

I can't say enough good things about our stay here. Initial communication was superb and included excellent directions (with photos) from SFO as well as great information about the surrounding areas. We stayed in touch with Gary as we were delayed, and he met us as we pulled in. Everything about this place is well thought out with a great flair for fun decor. The highlight, of course, were the floor to ceiling glass door that faced the ocean. Everything was explained well by Gary and he talked about some great local attractions and restaurants. We used his directions to have a fun drive through the redwoods one day. We ate breakfast every morning at The Press the next town south. Beds were heavenly, steam shower was a nice addition and the place was very clean. The views alone are worth it. Thanks, Gary and Nancy!

Serenity Getaway in Montara, CA

Serenity Getaway in Montara, CA

Gary and Nancy were wonderful hosts. Gary provided a list of things to do in the area and recommended some great restaurants via email which was so helpful. It helped create our agenda for our stay. As my family and I arrived to the location, we were greeted by Nancy who was very welcoming. She even made THE CUTEST welcome sign which I took home because it was so cute. The following day, I met Gary who was just as nice over the phone as he was in-person. Their home is overlooking the beach and is in a prime location; close to the beach, restaurants, stores, and trails. Their home is spacious and fully stocked with all the necessities (i.e., towels, blankets, shampoo, condition, lotion, games for the family, kitchenware, etc.). Although they live upstairs, it is as if they are not even there. You can call them for anything and they are VERY responsive. My family and I enjoyed our stay very much! I see more trips to their lovely home in my future! GREAT STAY and would love to go back!!

We watched whales , dolphins and seals from the porch. We absolutely loved the house! I wasn’t a huge fan of the actual town but with Half Moon Bay right down the road, San Fran only 30 mins and Redwoods about 40 mins away... it was perfect!

This was our best experience yet. Gary and Nancy were gracious, thoughtful hosts who accomodated a last minute reservation. They are well prepared and responsive. Their home is an absolute gem. It was very clean, the bedding was extra nice, the kitchen was such a treat—it had everything, and the view was majestic. Even the furniture was just right—large and small tables and lovely chairs and sofas. We’d be delighted to return and to refer our friends here. This was a memorable and special retreat for our family.

Other VRBOs I've stayed at have the bare minimum but Nancy and Gary's home had everything we needed that made us feel like it was our home away from home. The views are amazing and morning coffee with friends overlooking the ocean was our highlight. The entire living area has amazing views and plenty of space for our group to gather. Nancy and Gary were great hosts and I was surprised that we didn't hear anything from upstairs at all. The location is perfect, close enough to Half Moon Bay and Pacifica for a quick run to a major store if needed, but Montara is quiet and peaceful.

Our family had a lovely time at this property. Nancy and Gary were warm and welcoming hosts who made sure we had a comfortable vacation and all our needs were taken care of (down to the beach toys for the kids!) We couldn’t have asked for a more perfect setting for our Thanksgiving meal. From the kitchen to the amazing ocean views from the dinner table. It was a dream! We will definitely miss waking up and falling asleep to the sounds of the ocean.

We spent a family gathering here to celebrate my mom’s 88th birthday. What a beautiful view! My siblings don’t live in California, and they were blown away by the view we got right in the backyard. The kitchen and dining area is nice and open, and we comfortably enjoyed a “home” cooked meal together overlooking the ocean. The owners were accommodating and very responsive to any requests we had. This definitely had a homey feel, as opposed to staying at a hotel. Would recommend for a weekend getaway—thank you Nancy and Gary!

Definitely would recommend this rental. The owners live upstairs, but were super inobtrusive. We rented the space while producing a conference at the Ritz in HMB. Super easy drive to and from. Was great for my team to relax and unwind. It was a little tricky finding the spot, but so glad we selected this space. Nice patio, great views and kitchen. Easy access to the beach from the hostel a few doors down.

Nancy & Gary’s home is a perfect getaway for the weekend. My girlfriends & I had an absolutely wonderful time taking advantage of the stunning views of the ocean and listening to the lulling sounds of the surf. Simply put, everything was perfect. No need to go anywhere else ... it’s heaven!

We stayed with our two young children, mother, brother and niece. Gary and Nancy were great hosts and ensured that we were comfortable and familiar with the area. The house is in a fantastic location for local activities and only 30 minutes from SFO and SF activities. We stayed for one week, attended a wedding, Muir woods, Monterey Bay, the city, beaches and still did not get to do everything that we planned. We plan to go back soon!

Our family stayed at Nancy and Gary's house in late July and we loved everything about it. The home is as spectacular as the pictures show with plenty of room even for large groups. We really enjoyed hanging out on the deck and watching and listening to the waves. Nancy and Gary were very accommodating and easy to get a hold of when we needed anything. Gary had multiple great suggestions for us to help our son see evidence of the San Andreas fault and Nancy found a wet suit that our daughter could use in the ocean. Not only does the home have everything, it is incredibly convenient to San Francisco, Half Moon Bay and the airport. It was great getting off the plane and being at the house in 20 minutes but feeling a world away. Don't miss the tide pools about a mile south of the house!

We stayed at Gary and Nancy's wonderful getaway in Montara over the July 4th week and what a perfect experience it was. There were three of us, including my 7-year-old son and we all loved the home and the area, but being right there on the ocean, hearing the waves crashing on the shore and rocks below was the highlight for all of us. The home itself is nicely appointed, not fancy but well done and laid out in a way that really gives you multiple viewing points and areas to sit and enjoy the beautiful views. The area of the home where we stayed was on the bottom floor, which is separated from the top floor where homeowners Gary and Nancy live. The bottom floor has a door which locks and gives you complete privacy from the second floor and the only shared area of the home is the entryway. When you enter the home through the front door, you'll see two doors, one which is the private area for the homeowners and goes upstairs and the other which is how you'll access the three bedroom bottom floor. The kitchen, bedrooms, baths, and living areas were perfect for us. We found ourselves not wanting to leave the home and often just sat around enjoying the splendor of its surroundings. There is a small beach just a short walk away which is not for swimming, but good for relaxing, taking photos and playing in the surf. The sand is clean and watching the sunset from there is very special. We also found that accessing San Francisco was quite easy from Montara, it took less than 30 min and we rarely ran into traffic going that way. This home is absolutely a good base for anyone looking to enjoy the city but not wanting the hustle and bustle associated with it. To be able to have both the peaceful serenity of this home and also easy access to one of the world finest cities is quite the find. Gary and Nancy are also very warm and kind hosts who further enhanced the visit, I just can't recommend this property enough, do yourself a favor and book a stay here, I know we'll be back soon and can see making this an annual trip. Enjoy!!!!!!

Fabulous view, three full bedrooms, and two full baths worked perfectly for our group--parents, our two adult children, and their partners. The kitchen is well equipped, which we appreciated because we'd been on the road for several days and wanted home cooked meals. Nancy and Gary were gracious and easy to work with. We'd do it again!
