We loved our stay! Everything was above and beyond what we expected from the cozy blankets to the super comfy bed, heated bathroom floor, fully functional kitchen. All within a walk to Montara beach where my daughter had a beach volleyball tournament. Also nice backyard space if we had brought our dog which we didn’t this stay. Can’t wait to book again!

First of all, communication was fabulous, I had everything I needed to check in and check out, and the property managers were not intrusive at all. The place was incredibly clean and well-maintained. It had everything you could want and more. The location is two blocks from great hiking trails and it was so wonderful to bring my dogs, I will definitely rent this property again.

A perfect place for a weekend getaway with hubby and my Japanese Chins.
The only suggestion is to reduce the bottom gate space between the Verbo yard and the neighbors yard. My dogs are small and could have easily slipped underneath to neighbors yard. I had to place table benches on there side against gate to cover.space.

We had a great stay, the only reason we gave it 4 stars was because there was a "ring/ automatic light camera" in the backyard. There were no shades or covering for the doors that lead to the backyard. it felt like we were being watched thru the back doors.
Also, no blinds on windows,or no screen doors! Hard to open and let fresh air in without the bugs flying in the house.
However, house was very nice and clean. Quiet location and you can actually see the beach and hear the waves!

We really enjoyed staying at your cottage. It is so well stocked, very peaceful and in such a beautiful location. There are so many nice touches in the whole house and plenty of room for our small dog to run around.

The property is a clean, cozy and functional spot near the ocean, in the charming city of Montara. The people and the alpacas are friendly, and the hiking nearby is just wonderful.

It was my first time in California and my husband and I had an amazing time in Montara. The house was clean and extremely well equipped. We cooked great meals on the BBQ, walked to the beach, enjoyed the local restaurants and had great day trips to Big Sur and San Francisco. This house is a gem and we will be back!

This is a beautiful property, the location is superb across from the alpacas, and hiking trails nearby. It was extremely clean and the kitchen was super organized and had everything I needed. Can’t say a bad word about it!

Beautiful little stand-alone house in Montara! We loved the beautiful neighborhood, with a community garden right next to the alpaca farm (loved the alpacas also!) Quick drive to Half Moon Bay for shopping and restaurants, 2-minute drive to Montara State Beach. 10-15 minutes from other beaches. The home was exactly as described, and the check-in and check-out processes were simple. I had no occasion to have to contact the host. My favorite place of all the places I've stayed in Montara so far!

It's a beautiful, super clean house in a very nice neighborhood! When we come to San Francisco again we'll definitely stay again!

This whole experience was amazing. My wife and two boys (16 & 12) had all the space we needed, along with our dog! We had family staying in half moon bay at the ritz Carlton, but this was an affordable alternative just a few minutes away! We used the full kitchen to cook a huge breakfast, and went on a hike on the trail just short walk down the road. We brought some sandwiches and had a picnic in a clearing on the trail with a stunning view. The backyard is a nice little oasis with string lights & beautiful green grass. And right out the front door is an Alpaca farm! You can walk right up to the fence and sit on the little bench and watch them graze, or watch them from the rocking chairs on the front porch. We will definitely be staying here again!

We LOVED our stay. The property is adorable, well maintained and well stocked. It is in a lovely and quiet location. Our favorite part was sitting in the front porch watching the alpacas and enjoying the ocean view. Communication was outstanding. There was a major storm while we were there and they made a point of letting us know there was a generator they would start for us. Beyond 5 stars!
