About this house rental
This newly remodeled property perches over a beautiful view, perfect for bird watching or just sitting and taking in the sights. This is a bayfront property and from our cozy home you can walk down to put your feet in the water, eat at delicious local restaurants or even go to the local convenience store just around the corner. Even you are feeling like a longer walk, you can walk a bit further and explore the dunes heading towards Salmon Creek.
Our remodel has ensured that this property is safe, warm, up-to-date and comfortable. With a special focus on views, the both floors of the house open up to beautiful sights of the bay. You enter upstairs where the kitchen and living areas are designed to take in the fabulous bay views. There is also a cozy room with a comfortable queen bed on the entry level. Downstairs you can find a large master bedroom with a delightful King bed and a futon that can be folded out for extra guests. . There is a futon in the living room that can fold out to a bed for even more guests. Both bedrooms have their own private bathrooms and both floors have large wooden decks for relaxing. Please note that the stairs from the entry level to the downstairs master bedroom are quite steep so not appropriate for toddlers or people who have mobility issues.
We recently put in WiFi so you can stay connected to school or work if you need. (Although we hope you can also take advantage of the natural beauty and enjoy some time unplugged!) However, we do not have broadcast TV or a large screen in the house.
To access the bay you can either exit from the downstairs deck or walk down the stairs along the house. We even have an outside shower to wash off before you enter the house!

An amazing place with great communication from the owners. Big spacious downstairs bedroom with a spectacular view. Upstairs is modern kitchen and the beautiful sunroom with an even more spectacular view. Amazing sunset when there’s no fog. Kitchen and amenities are all modern. You can easily walk over to the general store and get anything you need including Good food from the deli but walking anywhere else is very treacherous on busy Highway one. However, if you go down the back steps to the bottom of the hill and step over a short fence to the parking lot, there is two good seafood restaurants. The really great seafood restaurants along with all the , other activities like beaches, boating, hiking etc. are all within a very short drive. We love it there! And we will be back!

We enjoyed the view in the spacious house, and the cleanliness of the house.
And the fact that it is pet friendly.
We would love to rent it again real soon.
A TV would be nice but not a dealbreaker.
Thank you for letting us rent your house.

Once you are in the house, it is like living in a bird's nest. You look out through the trees to the bay beyond.It gave such a feeling of calm. We could walk out the back and down toward the bay and all the opportunities there. The house is comfortable and the kitchen had everything we needed.

It was my friend's birthday and we had a great time. Location was awesome we walked everywhere. Plenty of space and lovely views. The place has been very well cared for and it shows.

I was looking for a place to just relax and enjoy the Bodega Bay area, grill some Hog Island oysters and get some chowder from Spud Point Crab Co. I also needed a place I could spend the mornings writing. This was the perfect house for me and my family. Will definitely book again!

We stayed one day only, not the originally scheduled 4 nights and that first morning was intensely uncomfortable which is why it was necessary to leave.
Our hosts knew we were 3 senior women who were vacationing to celebrate 2 birthdays...{one 77th and one 80th). All of us are in good health and fitter than most our age.
There was no wifi available the first day and night and trying to reach our hosts proved fruitless. But the worst part was to come the first morning when workmen showed up to clean up the grounds at the front of the property facing the bay. It has a marvelous view, which we were enjoying in our pajamas with our coffee, when workers started walking on the deck and around the side to access the front shrubs and trees. One man actually climbed the tree on the front side of the main window and started trimming the tree with a power saw!! There are no drapes or curtains of any kind in this house...so we abandoned the idea of breakfast watching the bay and went to get dressed.
That was the next surprise...no curtains in the upstairs bathroom made it possible for the workmen putting a new roof on the property next door to peer straight into that upstairs bathroom!!! What a surprise that was!! I have pictures of all of this and the ants.
With all of the noise from the roofers nail guns, the power saw trimming the tree and the gentlemen hauling yard debris around the house and deck we decided to leave to try to figure out what to do to remedy the situation.

Great location and beautiful view of the bay. WiFi but low tech (1 small old tv available for DVDs only). Spacious master bedroom down steep stairs has even better views. Beautiful glassed in room which came in very handy when it was raining.

We had a bit of trouble parking since the neighbor had paved the front of the house and we had to try and park in a small space right next to the busy highway. Also we had to spend a bit of time finding the doorway into the front porch. But from there onwards it was great stay. Bodega bay is a quiet relaxing place. The store next door was very convenient and we enjoyed their pizza which was fresh.

Beautiful view of the Bay. Kitchen was like new. Plenty of living space. Will definitely go back.

Our 2nd time staying here. It was just as wonderful as last year.

Easily accessed the wharf's grand restaurants.

Cozy place- especially enjoyed the living area upstairs when you open all the windows to hear the birds- feels like you are outside. Panna/ owner is very responsive and helpful. Needed to be in Bodega Bay for a week and also work. Wifi is very good, but a lot of my Verizon calls dropped- even on wifi calling. I would recommend taking some of the older chairs out of the lovely windowed living area. Parking and pulling in and out of parking area is a bit hard at times because of CA -1- but the trade off is the convenient location.

The views from this property are outstanding. The upper and lower levels both have wonderful views, and lots of birds to watch. The home is a comfortable space with lots of seating, both indoor and out. Right in town and a short drive to everything Bodega Bay has to offer. Added bonus, can walk down some stairs to the Marina. We will likely return to this spot.

This cottage on the bay was charming, offering spectacular views of the water, birds and ever changing weather.
The close proximity to various activities made it even more appealing.

Wonderful views, and comfortable spaces to hang out in, with a good kitchen for cooking, which we did a lot of.

We had a good stay! We felt the house could’ve been cleaner. When you pay a cleaning fee the sheets should be clean. We were happy there was a washer & dryer so that we could strip the bed and wash the bedding. The crumbling parking area was a dangerous place to pull out to the busy street. The view is fabulous and we enjoyed walking down from the house to the marina. The heaters were great which we needed to stay warm & dry in this maritime environment.

We loved being on the bay and having great views when we were at the house. Great Wi-Fi (I had to work one day, and this is a great spot to do it).
The house had everything we needed and overall this was a great trip for us.

This property is the beach-town equivalent of ski-in, ski-out lodging. You park your vehicle on the 1st day and don't have to touch it again until you leave. For relaxing, that's not so unusual, but from this house, you can walk to 2 stores, 4 restaurants, sportfishing, and kayaking in literally under 5 minutes. In 10 or 15, you can get to other restaurants, hiking trails, and more.
The house itself is nicely upgraded and very comfortable. Not one of those odd rentals where 2 people use 1 bath, and 4 or 6 use the other! Balanced layout, plenty of great details like towel racks in the bathrooms and spices in the pantry. It made for a truly special experience for my wife and me and our 2 sons in their 20s.

Spectacular view of the bay. Walk to restaurants. Owners are great to work with.

I decided to take my family to the Bodega Bay Area, as I had lived nearby about 20 years ago, and had great memories of my time there. Not really knowing what to expect, as pictures typically don’t do a place justice, that was the case for Bird Watcher Paradise 2. Walking into the property, opening the door, and seeing that view from the living room was just breathtaking. We had what we needed. Everything was clean. It was perfect for what we were looking for.
Thank you!

We felt like we were staying in a treehouse! The views are stunning. We were fortunate to have both sunny and misty days. Such a lovely escape from the heat. The location is fantastic for walking to everything. The steps out the back lead directly to two restaurants and the small marina. The only suggestion we have is to bring a robe and eye masks if you are staying in the downstairs bedroom as there are gorgeous big windows but no blinds. Overall, we had an amazing time here.

This property is very centrally located to great trails as well as the beach. It has a wonderful view of the bay which is very relaxing.

My Wife and I had an amazing time in Bodega Bay! We were blown away with the views from all over the house. It was close to so many shops and restaurants which was nice after a long day of exploring. Our Host's were extremely helpful throughout the entire process from reserving, getting to and in the house, and suggestions on things to do while in town! We cannot wait to come back to Bodega Bay!

Comfortable house on the harbor with a great view in a really cute and fun town.

We throughly enjoyed our time at the Heron’s Nest, so much so that we ended up adding days to our stay. Panna was great making us feel welcome and provided us with valuable information for our drive home amidst inclement weather. Location was perfect, right next to the market and so many places to explore nearby. We would definitely come back!

The home in Old Town Bodega Bay was perfect for our family of four and mini-dachshund. The house was extremely clean, private, and had beautiful views of the bay. We loved the fact that we were able to walk to Diekmann’s (next door) to get ice cream and whatever ingredient we needed. Parking was tight for our Tundra. However, if you follow the tips that are provided by Panna, it was simple and we had no issues getting in and out of the driveway onto highway 1. Overall, this place was perfect and we can’t wait to come back.

Loved the view and the property. The basics were great.
The downside:
1. NO TV…couldn’t watch football on Saturday or Sunday.
2. The property needs to consider the renter more. The freezer was full. No room for any of our stuff.
3. The furniture was generally on the “tatty,”used side.
4. Generally felt like we paid a lot for what we got…except that the property was in a good location and could have been fantastic.
4.9
We loved the house, had great views, and very convenient. I would love to rent it again maybe for the summer months. We are sport people so we missed not having a TV in the house. so if I could say anything negative about the house, it is not having a TV.
