About this cottage rental
Are you seeking an authentic experience, one that gives you the true sense of a place — where you feel at home, as if you’ve always belonged?
The Green Cottage has water views that go on forever! It is a vintage beach house that sits at the water’s edge at the southern end of Morro Bay, on California’s Central Coast. It is a romantic vacation rental for two, beautifully refurbished and filled with art, antiques and hand-made quilts. It offers comfort, privacy, solitude and views that go on forever.
It is the perfect hideaway at the end of a small peninsula tucked away in a quiet residential area of Los Osos. Our part of California is off the beaten path and we like it that way. We live our lives a little slower than the rest of the world. That gives us time to see more of what there is to see and to experience more of the things that are authentic and meaningful — all far, far away from fast-paced big-city lives.
There is something here that evokes reminiscent images of days gone by. Ice cream shops, a famous cookie company, boardwalks, local cafés only locals know about, wineries, art galleries, saloons, hiking trails and deserted beaches perfect for long walks and collecting shells.
Originally a fisherman’s cottage from early 1900s, the Green Cottage has old world charm with today’s comforts. It features the most sought-after attractions in our area: privacy, unobstructed views of Morro Bay, Morro Rock, Baywood Park, and the mountains beyond. This single-story, cozy cottage is irresistibly charming, with emphasis on comfort and view. It provides you with the opportunity to immerse yourself in nature, in romance — here in “the middle kingdom” as National Geographic once called this region of California. It is a natural escape, a refuge and home base for exploring the beautiful Central Coast and all it has to offer.
The Cottage features an open plan interior with an eclectic style of décor, including contemporary and vintage pieces, with the addition of family heirlooms to add just the right amount of coziness and comfort. Step inside and make a cup of tea or cook a gourmet meal in the fully-equipped kitchen to enjoy by candlelight or under the stars on the Cottage deck. Curl up with a good book in the corner reading nook, peruse the original art on the walls, and discover handmade baskets and carvings from Africa, the South Seas, and local Native Americans. Enjoy a glass of award-winning Central Coast wine as you sit quietly on the deck and watch the pelicans, herons, snowy plovers, egrets and peregrine falcons while the sun slips silently into the horizon. At day's end, snuggle into the comfy bed for a restful, relaxed sleep.
The main room includes a king-size premium bed with a handmade quilt and pillow shams.
Beyond is the seating/living area. Your eyes will follow the light, past the breakfast bar to the kitchen/dining area and to the water beyond. You will notice the Cottage gleams in spotless silence, which accounts for 337 5-Star reviews, 6 4-star and 3 3-star reviews (VRBO, plus two other platforms). Off to the side is a separate area — the “Quiet Room” — with a single bed, dressing area, closets and dressers. The bathroom has a separate entrance off the living area. The pantry, off the kitchen has cooking supplies and a European-style washer/dryer.
When you step out onto the deck — be warned — you will not want to leave. There you can sit for hours with your coffee or glass of wine and look down along the shoreline, across the bay to Morro Rock, to the sand dunes and the surrounding mountains.
If you want to connect with the outside world, we make it easy with fast free Wi-Fi. But we suggest making contact on a more personal level by taking a walk along the water and seeing where life takes you. In that way, the Cottage becomes your inspirational refuge.
Whether you are looking for action, adventure, peace, solitude or romance, the Green Cottage offers you a ‘road less traveled’ experience that you will want to return to again and again.

Our stay was excellent! We spent a lot time on the back porch enjoying the magnificent view and all the wildlife. The cottage itself was immaculate and had everything we wanted for taking care of ourselves, for cooking and enjoying. We will likely be returning.

Absolutely delightful stay. The cottage is impeccably maintained, it’s right on the water and it’s totally charming.
Manager/owner Pandora is very friendly and helpful.

This is the perfect place to watch the passing of time measured by the tides Pandora has created an oasis full of so many treasures It’s like walking into an artists studio

We loved it and are booking it again

The cottage is a real gem. We spent 4 days there and this was the first location ever that I did not want to leave. Pandora is amazing and began informing us about the area and events long before our arrival. Absolutely clean and comfortable. The cottage is just as it appears on the website but the experience of staying there was more than we had imagined, I can't wait to go back! I highly recommend for anyone looking for some peace, natural beauty and a place to detox from the rest of the world.

I really loved the cottage. I stopped in Morro Bay on a road trip. Taking pictures all over California. From the deck of the amazing cottage on Morro Bay I got some great pics. The host is amazing. The attention to detail of the cottage stood out. If you want a beautiful secluded place you can't beat The Green Cottage.

Stayed here for 2nights in early June. WAY colder than we expected, but our fault for not checking weather. The heaters and blankets kept us warm and toasty.
The unit is clean, really quiet and has a great view of the bay. we drank coffee at the table and watched the birds at low tide. it was great.
If we had stayed longer, the stocked kitchen would've been really useful. Really relaxing for us.
nice hikes are really close. Not too far from Hearst Castle--last minute trip after husband saw the books on the desk.
Pandora was really good about communicating and asking if we needed anything.

My husband and I found the perfect venue to celebrate our 25th anniversary! The Green Cottage immediately felt like home. The attention to detail was so thoughtful. From the fresh cut flowers to the locally roasted coffee, we really felt welcomed. We spent most of our time, hiking, bird watching and enjoying that unforgettable view from the cottage deck. What an amazing place to rejuvenate and celebrate. We hope to make this an anniversary tradition!

We stayed for three days for our Son's graduation from Cal Poly. We wanted something quiet away from the crazy in San Luis Obispo at graduation. What we found was perfect. Easy drive to campus (10 minutes) in and out. The beauty of the bay and tidal waters. The wildlife, birds and deer were just some of the highlights. Tons of walking trails including the Elfin forest. Places to eat, farmers markets, local artist. ocean breeze at night, you could leave the windows open and there was no sounds, so quiet. Such a cute sanctuary, host very attentive to every need and the home had everything. We BBQ and ate on the deck at night. Our son came out one night and brought take out and we had an amazing quiet visit. Our son had seen the house many times from his paddle board adventures in the area. This is our second graduate from Cal Poly and we really wish we had found this home many years ago. We will be back. Thank you for all the care and thought you put into the home. We loved all the artwork, items from travel around the world and your family antiques.

Upon arrival at the Green Cottage we were immediately struck by the beauty and quiet of this unique bayview retreat. And the peaceful ambiance underscored our week of exploration and repose in the area. The cottage is artfully decorated and the kitchen boasts all the cookware and dishes you may need to prepare your snacks and meals. Indoor and outdoor seating is comfortable and we enjoyed restful nights of relaxing sleep. The area beyond the cottage is rich with all kinds of offerings from outdoor adventures to fine dining. Don’t think twice about booking your vacation here—you will have no regrets!

Special little place. Very quiet, right on the water. Pandora is an exceptional host. We had a memorable 3 days in the Green Cottage, capping off a 14-day trip to Yosemite, Carmel/Big Sur, and Morro Bay. Thank you, Pandora.

This was our first visit to the Moro Bay area and we found the perfect place from which to explore and enjoy all the bay has to offer. The cottage was very clean, comfortable and stocked with anything you could wish for. The bed was comfy and the kitchen great to work in. The deck, with its spectacular views of the bay, was an amazing spot to wake up to each morning and return to each evening. From the cottage we were able to easily explore the beautiful beaches, many of the nature parks and quaint towns along the coast. It was tough to say good bye after only 3 nights but we hope to return to The Green Cottage soon! Thanks for sharing your special home!

Our Special Anniversary Retreat
My husband and I wanted a special vacation experience to celebrate our 50th Anniversary.
Our two week stay in the Green Cottage turned out to be the perfect choice. The cottage is immaculate, comfortable, very well stocked and aesthetically interesting because of the eclectic decor and interesting collection of family heirlooms and art collections. But the best part is the view of the back bay, visible from every room. The owner, Pandora and her property manager, Sioux were responsive and provided several special touches that made our stay a complete success. We plan to return next year.

Simplicity, Serenity
We loved watching the tide go in and out of the bay each day; we loved watching the birds and the raccoons feed at low tide. The shower was a bit small for us. However, the cottage had a very eclectic, homey overall feel to it. We loved being surrounded by precious art and antiques; we loved just hanging out there.

Just a perfect getaway in a perfectly outfitted cottage. One could just move right in!

On the Water
Location, location, location. If you like kayaking, hiking and biking - this is your dream place. You can pull your boat into the water every day in a few seconds. Montana de Oro is a few minutes away for the rest. Walk to some great restaurants and bakery in Baywood.
This is not a modern home, but an old cottage; basically a studio with an old fashioned kitchen as described. If that’s okay with you, then this is the spot.

Magical week on the bay!
My boyfriend and I had a super magical stay at the Green Cottage! Spent our days biking and walking around Los Osos and Morro Bay, enjoying the beautiful scenery and fresh air. The cottage was peaceful and clean and the views from the porch were extraordinary! We had a great time cooking meals in the well-equipped kitchen, listening to music and gazing out on the bay. Thank you so much for an amazing adventure. Was sad to leave.

Quaint, full of personality, and LOCATION to Montana De Oro
A perfect getaway for a romantic weekend, each nook of the cottage came with inspiration and details of it's past life. It's also minutes away from Montana De Oro State Park, so there's a lot to explore.

I’m very grateful Pandora’s Green Cottage afforded me the personal retreat I was longing for as I stand on the precipice of a new year. I sought and found solace in this grace-filled abode, and Pandora’s attention to detail made this home away from home a perfect refuge for much-needed reflection and refreshment. Thank you, Pandora, for taking such great care of your 6-generation family treasure and for your generosity in sharing it with the rest of us! Your gifts of hospitality are evident and displayed in both the obvious and fine details of your home. Your aesthetic, cleanliness, attention and attentiveness to your guests needs and all the extras you so stylishly and abundantly supply. They all boast of your great heart as a woman, mother and caregiver to those you know well and in passing, like me. :) Thank you for the way you extend your love and care through your gifts, resources and means! You are a gift to many! Blessings to you and your family.

Amazing Property on Morro Bay
My husband and I booked the Green Cottage for a 4-night getaway from the heat of Las Vegas and the sameness of staying at home. We were sold by the location on the water, detailed description and great photos. Well, nothing could possibly compare with actually entering the purple door and experiencing what has to be one of the cutest, cleanest, and most wonderfully equipped (move-in ready) VRBOs. The cottage is the perfect size for two adults. The king-size bed is comfortable; the eclectic decorations are tasteful; the kitchen, pantry and grill are ready for seaside cooking; and the deck is the perfect place to spend mornings and evenings watching sunrises, sunsets and shorebirds over coffee or cocktails. Despite its diminutive size, the Green Cottage feels open and inviting. The property is squeaky clean, inside and out. Pandora and Gary are clearly proud (and protective) of the absolutely wonderful Green Cottage on Morro Bay--we will be back!

A slice of heaven ...
Pandora and her property were magical. The cottage was everything it was advertised to be and more! I can't rave about it enough. Pandora, our host, thought about every last detail. (and she was so available and helpful). This is not just a place to stay. Instead, it is a get away/a retreat unto itself. We will definitley be back!

5-Star Everything
I'm pretty picky about traveling - I'm the type of person who always asks to move hotel rooms because of dust, noise, etc. This place is not only immaculately clean but the PERFECT vacation getaway. The little cottage sits right on the bay so you can take your laptop, breakfast, coffee right out on to the patio and it feels like you have the WHOLE bay to yourself. It's the perfect size for 2-3 people who are looking to hide away from the city for a weekend. Pandora is also the most wonderful host - she anticipates your needs before you yourself even become aware of them! This place is definitely bookmarked as a treasure.

The Green Cottage is more than just a "place to stay" .... it's a lovingly cared for home that we were fortunate enough to call home for a few days. The owner has gone well beyond expectations to ensure the creature comforts of her guests, including an extremely well appointed kitchen, a great selection of movies and books, comfortable beds, and other special touches such as fresh fruit and flowers. The cottage is super-clean! This is truly a place that is filled with beautiful treasures, art work, and a stunning view, creating a sense of spiritual calmness and contentment. If only we could have stayed longer!

Absolutely Lovely
More than a place to stay, this cottage is a work of art. It is both thoughtfully designed and intuitively appointed - everything you might need is right where you think it should be. The decor is an eclectic mix that invokes calm and curiosity. The table/housewares are a well-curated collection worthy of a lifetime. The supplemental information provided was comprehensive (bravo to the binders!) and the place was immaculate. The bed wasn't the most comfortable ever but that must be by design - I don't think people would vacate otherwise ... because of the VIEW!
The most spectacular view of the Bay can be enjoyed in seeming seclusion. The neighborhood is so quiet and, being situated between the bird reserve and the local 'Artists Garden', the Green Cottage is a gem in the treasure trove of California's Coasts. Truly one of the best vacations of my life, I would go back again in a heartbeat. Thank you for sharing your corner of bliss.
PS My 6'4" husband did manage to bump his head on the sloping ceiling a number of times but even that was charming. Well-played, Green Cottage. Well-played. "DUCK!!!(S)"
