Lovely, cozy house in Cambria. Our family enjoyed our stay, and appreciated the well appointed kitchen for meals. Large outside deck was perfect for reading and enjoying nature. We even saw a group of deer walk placidly through the yard. All in all a good home base for a trip to the central coast.

The home was nice and the location was good. House did not have one working outside light. Literally the reason I booked this house was the deck so we could bbq steaks and have a place to sit outside. It was way too dark to do that so it was a major bummer. When I called, the man I spoke to was a little gruff. And who wants to sit around and wait for a guy to come and look at fixing the house you spent so much money on so we opted to just change our plans. But the house itself was clean and the beds were comfortable.

The Brocklebank house met all our needs. The house was clean and everything was in working order. The neighborhood is super quiet and we will definitely consider coming back.

Wonderful home in the relaxing central coast town of Cabria. Home was well appointed and easy to stay in. Cute downtown with interesting shops, local beaches and nature areas a plus. Check in Check out procedures very easy. All in all a great stay!

We really liked the location and layout of this home. Everything you could need for a trip was provided; plenty of kitchenware, diningware, towels, blankets etc and all in nice condition. It had a nice deck that we sat out on and had lunch a couple of days.
It should be noted though that the dishwasher wasn't great, didn't really clean the top deck; the fridge, microwave and oven could do with updating, and the gas pressure was pretty bad on the stovetop meaning it took a while to heat anything up. We also had some issues with no hot water, however the agent was super responsive when we reported it and came out within an hour, thank you!
Overall the issues were fairly minor and we really enjoyed our stay.

This is a well-stocked, comfy, cozy home a 5-10 minute walk down to a beautiful beach. For three of us staying two nights and just wanting to hang out, it was perfect. The fireplace worked great; the kitchen had pretty much all we needed to make some breakfast; WiFi was easy; the beds were pretty comfy; there were cards and games and puzzles (it was rainy!). The yard was beautiful and I wish the weather had been better so we could've enjoyed it.

We enjoyed our 3-day stay at this charming, older home in a nice quiet neighborhood. It was comfortable and homey, with the sound of the surf in the distance, and well-established trees and landscaping in this area. We and our dogs enjoyed the large yard and quiet side street for walking, when we were not all exploring Cambria and surrounding areas. Thank you for sharing your home!

Reviewer Comments:
Although in a good location and welcoming to dogs, renter beware. Interior walls and doors have grubby spots and scratches. Bedrooms and corridor have old carpets with an odor. Bed was uncomfortable. A set of window drapes looked like they had been wet from a leak and were starting to grow mold. Outdoor table cover was torn in several places and table needed to be cleaned before use. The rear yard it overlooked was uncared for. On Saturday a nearby party venue played loud music until 10pm. Some effort has been made to make living area comfortable, and although the house has some charm it is teetering on the brink of being unacceptable. It needs more attentive maintenance but even better, updating.

Charming older home in great neighborhood. We reveled in the ability to hear the waves roll (and crash) on to the shore and enjoyed a peek-a-boo ocean view from the deck. House was well-stocked for cooking, even Christmas dinner. Would absolutely stay here again.

Reviewer Comments:
This home is a bit more run down than it appeared. It was well stocked with coffee maker and extra blankets which were newer but there is outdoor furniture for a dining table. the bedrooms have older carpet and are a bit musty. it was pretty well cleaned though a few cobwebs in corners. I actually did not mind the oldness of the house but just was not prepared based on the other reviews. All the legal papers after the purchase was a bit strange as well.

We just got home from 5 days away at this property in Cambria. I have stayed in Cambria numerous times, but always at one of the hotels on the ocean. We wanted something a little more private and down home. This was exactly that. The house is definitely a home and we felt comfortable having our dog there as well as spending a lot of time just chilling on the deck, wandering around the neighborhood, and enjoying being away. This house is older and has a long history of being a family retreat, as their guestbooks attest. It was exactly right. Thanks to the family that’s made it what it is.

We were visiting Cambria to take my daughters engagement photos and rented this house for the weekend. You always take a gamble when you are trying to stay within everyone’s budget, but this house was perfect. There were six adults and two dogs and we all had our own space which was nice. One bathroom was a challenge but we made it work! Also it was amazingly close to downtown Cambria we could have walked if we wanted to!
Thank you to the Brocklebank family for sharing their home!

We had a nice stay at the Brocklebank house. Although this house is rated 4 stars I'd say it's really a 3 star property. I've stayed in several 4 star properties that were much more updated and had better amenities. The home is in a good location. Close to PCH, walking distance to Moonstone Beach and near downtown Cambria.

First time staying at this property. Nice home in good condition. A little noisy with the Cal Fire station next door and quite a bit of every day traffic. Scenic Coast was great and responded quickly to a minor problem,,,,coffee maker died but we had a replacement at the house within hour. Wish they had a tv in the bedroom and the gas grill is on its last legs. Nice house and dog friendly.

Spent three nights in Cambria in Oct 2020. The inside is quaint, and the owners have obviously been making upgrades. The dining room and family room have new hardwood floors, and the stove appears brand new. Furniture is clean and good. The kithcen linoleum was torn and worn a bit, but didn't bother me. I am sure a new kitchen floor won't be far behind. The outside deck is rustic, but the outside table and chairs were covered and in new condition. The BBQ is old but works. No air conditioning but usually not needed in Cambria as it is cool. Record setting 90 degrees during our trip though. Found a small fan in closet to cool house at sundown.Very quiet. Up a hill from the beach, but plenty of parking if you drive your car to the beach like I did. Saw a deer in our the neighborhood.

We enjoyed our stay at this well located home. Nice to walk in the neighborhood and also easy to visit beach and Fiscallini Ranch With the dog. There is a almost deserted dog beach in San Simeon that is a must visit. Also can recommend Stolo winery as a good place for a mid pandemic social distancing picnic/wine tasting. House was clean and comfortable. Thank you!

Our family really enjoyed our stay in Cambria. The home is only a 10 min. walk to the beach and a short drive to lots of great activities and to the town center. The kitchen was fully stocked. We used the table on the deck for most of our meals. The home did smell a little musty as it probably hadn't been used in some time.

Vacation with kids and a dog
This little house was perfect for our needs. It's just a short walk to Moonstone beach, or a quick trip by car. Loved the fireplace for the colder nights. It was a really convenient place for our family. There were also a lot of puzzles and games and good Wifi, so we had all we needed on our vacation.

Cozy and serene
I rented this house for myself and my 2 boys. The neighborhood was perfect, quiet and residential. It is on the same street as Cal Fore, so I felt very safe! We met the neighbors, very friendly. It is a 10 minute walk to the West Village, we drove to the East. I cooked every morning and evening, and the kitchen was very well appointed. The property was spotless, too. The house is older, but I liked the charm. My only suggestion would be new mattresses and a few more hand towels. I would definitely come again!

Nice little quiet cottage nestled above Cambria main street a very enjoyable stay.
Furniture is a bit dated and house smelled a little musty. Door locks could use some attention. A well appointed kitchen. House sits on a very quiet corner just below a Cal Fire station.

Great stay at the house. Location is excellent as it is just up the street from the water and shops but far enough away to be protected from the wind and to experience some of the local wildlife (herons, deer). My kids fell in love and didnt't want to leave.
