About this house rental

THE PERFECT PLACE FOR YOU:

BAYSIDE BUNGALOW is the perfect place for active singles, young or retired couples, or a small family who wants to be conveniently located near the WATER in Sonoma County's WINE Country—and just wants to RELAX, but.... The Bungalow is ESPECIALLY great for those who love SEAFOOD, wine-tasting and ACTIVITIES, like: SURFING, BOATING, FISHING, KAYAKING, WIND-SURFING, PADDLE-BOARDING, KITE-FLYING, CLAM-DIGGING, HIKING, HORSEBACK RIDING....SITE-SEEING AND, more! Visit the schoolhouse filmed in Alfred Hitchcock’s “The BIRDS” or historical Fort Ross, or go WHALE-WATCHING!

OR—JUST RELAX:

Sit on the beach with a glass of Sonoma County WINE, a crab sandwich and a good book. Walk your DOG on the beach or one of many great trails near the Bungalow. Or...curl up with a movie while you listen to the sound of the fog horn and waves breaking at Doran Park and Salmon Creek..

ACTIVITIES GALORE-ONLY MINUTES FROM THE BUNGALOW:

TWO BLOCKS AWAY

There are at least 4 GREAT (dog-friendly) restaurants with inside and outside seating and breathtaking views. WHALE WATCHING and crabbing or fishing charters ONLY 2 blocks away from the Bungalow.

RENT A KAYAK and just walk out the front door of the Bungalow. In 2 minutes you’ll reach the edge of the bay, where you can get into your kayak and paddle around the bay to watch the sea lions, otters and many, many, many bird species.

RENT A BICYCLE and peddle out to the Bodega Head (a 4 mile ride from the Bungalow). On your way, have a crab sandwich, calamari or chowder at Fisherman’s Cove, or take a picnic lunch to BODEGA Head and breath in the most SPECTACULAR VIEW OF THE OCEAN you’ve ever seen AT THE EDGE OF THE CONTINENT!

RENT A HORSE at FIVE BROOKS (formerly Chanslor Ranch—1.5 miles from the Bungalow) and take a BEACH ride along the edge of the waves, or go on a WETLANDS trail ride overlooking the ocean and Salmon Creek, or a PICNIC RIDE or SUNSET RIDE to the top of "Eagle View" mountain with a view that stretches south along the edge of the Northern California continent all the way to Pt. Reyes!

VISIT the town of Bodega (5 miles—Hwy 1 to Hwy 12) and see the "schoolhouse" and church where Alfred Hitchcock filmed scenes shown in "THE BIRDS” movie (available to watch later in your Bungalow). Have a great burger at the Casino and browse the galleries and gift shops in this quaint little, “walk-around” town.

VISIT the town of Valley Ford (8 miles down Hwy 1) and have a great breakfast at Estero, or an Italian dinner (pasta, seafood or Prime Rib) at Denucchi’s. YUM!!!

DOG-LOVERS can romp at the newly created, off-leash dog-park beach at Doran Park, hike down to The Pinnacle’s beach, or head up to Goat Rock and Blind beach (off-leash) for a long walk, and a picnic.

AFTER a GREAT DAY in our seaside town, come back to your cozy Bungalow pull the BLACKOUT CURTAINS closed, and watch a movie (Netflix, Prime, etc.,). Then, a great night’s sleep on a very comfortable, queen-sized, memory-foam topped mattress that 99% of our guests LOVE!!!

PROVISIONS:

The Bungalow has a combined living room/kitchen with a big, soft loveseat, lots of pillows, and throws to cuddle up in. The kitchen is fully equipped (pots/pans/dishes, utensils, spices, etc.,) with a dishwasher, refrigerator, stovetop range, microwave, Mr. Coffee pot, toaster and toaster oven. The bathroom has complimentary hygiene supplies, a tub, shower and ample supply of towels, extra towels (and "dog" towels).

We really enjoyed the bungalow. It was perfect for a short getaway with our dogs. Very convenient having several dog friendly restaurants in walking distance. The fenced yard allowed our puppies some freedom in complete safety. We plan to stay again.

Pamela was a great host, and this place is exceptionally dog friendly.

My pup and I spent 2 nights in Pamela’s abode & had a wonderful time. Neat as a pin, more than everything we needed, it felt luxurious . Communication with Pamela was great and she pointed the way to trails and dog friendly spots. I’m looking forward to coming back next time we’re in the area!

We had such a wonderful stay at this cottage and truly can’t say enough good things about our experience. The host was probably the best host we’ve ever had. She began communicating with us immediately after booking and provided clear, easy-to-follow directions to the property.When we arrived, she greeted us personally and shared great recommendations for places to eat and dog-friendly spots nearby, which made settling in so easy. The cottage itself was spotless, cozy, and very well maintained. It was also genuinely dog friendly — not just “dogs allowed.” Towels, blankets, and food bowls were provided for our dog, which was such a thoughtful touch.The cottage was stocked with everything we could possibly need. The kitchen was fully equipped, there were games and a smart TV for relaxing evenings, and so many extra conveniences like coffee, spare toothbrushes, toothpaste, lotions, and detailed information about local restaurants and activities.The host lives on the property with her dog. She provided clearly about that and what to expect, which we appreciated, and it was never an issue at all. She was the perfect balance of engaging, yet knowing when to give us our space for privacy.Five stars all around. We would absolutely stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a relaxing, dog-friendly getaway in Bodega Bay.
