A updated kitchen, appliances & washer/dryer will greet you along with new vanities/mirrors in both bathrooms. Pismo Beach has been named one of the best small towns in California by Travel & Leisure Magazine! Pismo Beach is Central California's Classic beach experience. Situated on California’s central coast between San Francisco and Los Angeles, Pismo Beach offers long white sandy beaches, spectacular sunsets and access to numerous area wineries. Visitors can rent rods to fish off the historic pier or grab a wetsuit to try out surfing, kayaking or body boarding. Acclaimed by Sunset Magazine as one of their ten favorite beaches, readers write 'I love to visit Pismo's Shell Beach at low tide to see hawks, pelicans - and sometimes spot an otter.' Shell Beach is located on the ocean side of Highway 101 within walking distance to the beach and two grassy parks overlooking the gorgeous Central Coast. 'Jagged cliffs add drama at Shell Beach in Pismo, CA' writes Sunset Magazine.
Close to award-winning Central Coast wineries, Cal Poly San Luis Obispo, Pelican Point and sandy Pismo Beach and pier, Shell Beach offers fun activities for all ages. Beautiful hardwood floors and sunny windows & blinds throughout the house showcase black cottage and wicker furniture. The master bedroom offers an eco-friendly mattress and mattress pad for your sleeping comfort. Fenced yard and a spacious deck in the landscaped backyard offers privacy for relaxation or outdoor dining. Black roof, front porch and exterior paint enhance the charm of this location. Central heat with thermostat control keeps you cozy on colder nights.
Our beach home offers a comfortable, relaxed environment for families or a romantic get-away vacation for two at the beach. Well-behaved, quiet dogs and children are always welcome. We have Spectrum wireless high-speed internet and cable TV! Sunset Magazine's July 2009 issue rates Pismo's Shell Beach as one of ten favorite beaches by their readers. 'Away from it all in Pismo. Why I love it: it's 77 steps down the cliffs to this small and uncrowded beach in Pismo. Bring down a great picnic.'

We fell in love with the California Central Coast! This area is a hidden gem! It’s beautiful yet not crowded. We spent lots of time at Dinosaur Caves Park and Spyglass Park. Hiking at Pismo Preserve was a favorite too. We loved being nestled between Pismo Beach and Avila Beach. We were also a quick drive to San Luis Obispo and Morro Bay.
The SLO County libraries were wonderful and allowed me to get a library card with the rental contract.
Robbin was an excellent and proactive host. She offered many ideas on things to do and checked in to make sure everything going well. The house itself was spacious and comfortable for an extended stay. We loved the kitchen and the extra toilet off the master bedroom.

Adorable Cottage in a prime location of Shell Beach. Quiet street with the ocean at the end. We walked throughout the small neighborhood and are returning again this year!

Jack (my dog) and I really enjoyed the wonderful neighborhood of Shell Beach during our October stay. House was lovely, well maintained and fully stocked for our comfort. The location was amazing, - short walks to the ocean, restaurants (our favorite Zorro's-complete with dog menu!). Robbin was a great host and very responsive. Can't wait to return!

Updated Quaint Beach House
From the beautifully remodeled kitchen, with everything you could possibly need, to the soaking jetted tub and hardwood floors, this house lives up to its description. It was a short walk to the scenic bluffs and Shell Beach. Try Zorro’s on the corner. They have a doggie menu! I stumbled upon The Lido Restaurant at Dolphin Cove Resort for an amazing dinner by the sea. Robbin was always reachable and incredibly nice. I felt extremely comfortable in this home. My dog loved it as well. Thank you!

A Lovely Respite
My stay here was absolutely wonderful. The house was larger than I expected and had great outdoor space in the front and back yards for outdoor yoga or soaking up the sun. It’s a quick walk to Steaming Bean for a cup of coffee in the morning or to one of the parks to watch the sunset over the ocean. Robbin is a great host and is very responsive to any questions or concerns. My only regret was not booking this place for longer!

We absolutely loved the area. Great walks at shell beach, just down the road. Dogs loved it as well . Nice area for the dogs in front and back. Neighborhood is super friendly. We just moved to the area and rented for 3 months while our house was being finished— wish I would have looked to buy in shell beach.

Nice place at a great location!
It’s very obvious that the owner takes pride in taking care of this house and it’s guests. The house has just about everything for the guests to have a great stay. Robbin, the owner, very quickly responds to any questions or concerns we had. Thanks Robbin! Safe secure backyard if you have a dog.
The location of the house is just great. We explored beaches, trails, wineries, and breweries. Hearst Castle was about an hour drive. At low tide you can access the beach right at the end of the street, a very short walk. The area is very dog friendly. The are also some really nice casual restaurants within a short walk. Just a great stay!

My husband and I recently spent a month here, this past Fall.
The house is clean, comfortable, well equipped, in a safe neighborhood, just a few blocks to spectacular Shell Beach.
Our dog was also comfortable, has fenced yard in the front and back. Great location to explore and enjoy the Central Coast!

Beach House at Shell Beach
Let me start by saying the owners are great to work with. My compliments to Robbin. My wife and I found this property to be very clean upon our arrival. It was quite apparent this small two bedroom home has been well taken care of. It is located in a nice neighborhood close to everything. I enjoyed sitting on the deck in the backyard reading . Such a peaceful place. We often walked to the beach which was located at the end of our street. Several restaurants are all within walking distance as well. We were out almost everyday sightseeing and finding new places to go. What a great area. I would recommend (and have done so ) to friends, family, or anyone reading this. We are looking forward to going back.

Great find
We absolutely loved our stay at shell beach. The house was equipped with everything we needed and matched the discription. The area is very safe and beautiful with plenty to do within walking distance, and the house itself has a great fenced in back yard area and a small fenced in front yard area which was great for sitting out later in the afternoon when the sun started to go down. Robbin was also very responsive if we had a question and let us know of anything we needed to be informed about ahead of time. I definitly recommend this propert for a relaxing stay at beautiful shell beach!

OK.
I have rented places in Shell Beach many times over the last 12 years and this place is overpriced for what you get. Everything in this house is the cheap. There is no BBQ and all the deck furniture is broken. There is a pull out bed that you'd be embarrassed to have anyone sleep on. Also, the wireless is sub-par. Not even fast enough to stream Netflix without constant re-booting. Great location but there's not much else going for it.

Can't Wait to Get Back
My husband and I, with our small terrier, had the opportunity to spend a month at this home the summer of 2014. This is our second month long stay at this house in the last two years. Originally when we investigated renting in Shell Beach, our criteria were fenced in front and back yards, hardwood floors and close to the ocean. This house met everything we were looking for in a rental. What we didn’t expect was a marvelous owner, Robbin, and a fabulous location close to nearby sights and activities. In the past two years, Robbin installed all new windows and a new roof. She really is a hands-on and involved owner, which is sometimes rare for rentals. We plan to return to this home every summer.

Your home was so comfortable. There wasn't anything we needed, it was all there. Your place was fully furnished and stocked with every kitchen utensil. The view from the cliffs was breathtaking. We love that we could walk to the nearby restaurants and to the ocean. Your neighborhood was quiet and peaceful. Each room had a ceiling fan which was a real plus on the warm sunny days. The floor plan of the house made it very comfortable. My two grandsons played video games on the TV in the den while we watched the TV in the living room. The house easily accommodated 4 adults and 2 children. We all had enough space to relax. The backyard deck was a great gathering place. Again, we thank you. We will always recommend your beach house. Thank you so much for your vacation rental. We had an amazing time and the house was perfect.

Our visit in Shell Beach was wonderful! Awesome weather, house worked very well. We slept well, ate well, visited and walked around the charming neighborhood. Enjoyed the coffee roasting place up the way but ate all our meals at the house. A nicely equipped kitchen worked very well. I even roasted a locally grown pumpkin from Oregon and made a pie. Friends of ours driving up from Sherman Oaks to San Francisco stopped by and loved the place for their family. We have rented other places and always been pretty happy, but this worked for our crowd very well.
Thanks again for sharing your place!
