About this cottage rental

Stocked with the best and often forgotten essentials so you can arrive as you would to your own family beach house. We want you to be at home at Sundog the moment you pull into the driveway.

Cozy, clean and great vibe! This updated (Solar battery backup) cottage with a modern retro flair is in a very walkable location near the General Store, Coastal Kitchen, and main beach access. It is a sleepier section of the village with pastoral views from the fully fenced backyard and if you go to the far left corner of the front deck, depending on the growth of the trees down there, you get a peekaboo view of the ocean. There's even a doggy door for your (smaller) furry friend.

We've made the most of this sweet cottage, and it has an open feel and romantic, comfortable decor.

Each bedroom has a Queen bed.

Solar back up keeps the power on out here, and you know that's a big giant PERK.

ABOUT DOGS:

We LOVE DOGS (madly, I tell you) and are determined to be able to host them too, however we do have insurance restrictions on breeds (check if yours is a high profile breed), and limit two 2 dogs (3 if they're leeeetle) and 4 people max.

Backyard is fully fenced and secure with a charcoal BBQ grill, and picnic table. The birds are almost always singing here.

Front deck is huge, with Adirondack chairs and a a pup gate to keep everyone contained. We have the beach chairs, towels, umbrella, blanket, toys and all the things to make you happy down there in the sand.

We are clean and peaceful and serene, and hope that is what draws you in to stay with us!

Other things to note
No smoking (anywhere on the premises).
Please clean up after Fido.

Had a great relaxing time - can't wait to stay there again. The house is terrific, perfect for the pups and close to the beach which the dogs loved. The owner is fantastic, easy to reach and full of knowledge. She made some great recommendations for food and things to do.

Sundog Cottage is squeaky clean, beautifully decorated, quiet, and peaceful. The host is so easily accessible and congenial, as if texting to a friend. I can't think of a single thing that would have made our stay more enjoyable. Our 3-pound elderly Chihuahua very much enjoyed the fenced back patio!

What a great 3 days at Dillon beach. The cottage is exactly described as is. It’s well appointed and communication with the host was perfect. We loved walking early mornings on the beach with our dogs. Hope to come back sometime soon!

My two kids and I had a nice stay at the Sundog Cottage. The lovely cottage was fully stock, had super comfy beds, and was just a short walk to the beach and general store. It's also a perfect place to bring your pet - we brought our dog and he loved laying out in the sun on the deck and in the backyard.

We visited the Sun Dog to celebrate our fur child’s 9 year old birthday. The home was convenient to the beach and having 2 bedrooms was great because we have labs that sleep on the bed (on their fleecy blankets). We live relatively close and forgot a couple things, so when my husband went back to our house I had him bring dog beds and more blankets because despite being a dog home, we couldn’t get the dogs to relax comfortably. The fridge came with a few staple items which was nice, we were able to cook in a couple meals and ate out a couple times… it was nice to drive down Tamales Bay eat at Tony’s… which we’ve always wanted to do with our fur kiddies. It was also great to get up early and spend hours the beach while the tide was out. The wind was insane, so it was only a morning activity but exactly why we chose to stay in Dillon Beach. Overall a fun 2 night stay, thank you Sun Dog.

Yes—it can at Sundog!! This little place is magical. Deer walk right by you in the field behind the house. Owls hoot at night. The ocean is a block away. Dillon beach is like a well held secret and Sundog is the place to stay. Thank you a thousand times for sharing your home and me and my dog BeBe give you 100000000 stars.

Sun Dog Cottage is a very special spot. Lovely and bright accommodations. I was delighted that the pictures matched the reality (which sadly is often not the case)! The home was well-appointed, cozy, charming, and clean. The host was AMAZING - so communicative and easy to work with. Her welcome basket of local items was a beautiful touch. We will be back.

I don't know what to say about Valerie's lovely cottage, because it went above and beyond my expectations. First, Valerie is a wonderful host. She is so personable, inviting, and incredibly professional. I came here with a girlfriend for a solo mom getaway and it was exactly what we needed- restorative, relaxing, and just a happy place to be. The cottage itself is incredibly comfortable, cozy, and clean. There are personal touches everywhere that Valerie has put in place. The beds were very comfortable and the sheets were impeccable. When we checked in there were drinks in the refrigerator and some snacks and fruit for us- really above and beyond. As for the location, Valerie's place is steps to Dillon Beach and the general store and local restaurant. Just a note that the restaurant does close at 7pm and the items in the general store can be pricey, but it's so lovely. The beach allows dogs and Valerie's place is dog friendly, which is amazing. We didn't bring our dog, but I would definitely come back and bring my dog so she can run along the beach. If you're looking for a perfect getaway at the beach in a friendly beach town on the Norcal coast, this place is a gem. Thank you, Valerie for such a wonderful stay.

Absolutely loved the place. Within walking distance to the beach and very close to the Dillon Beach Costal Kitchen restaurant. The cottage was well stocked, very clean and cozy. The beds were fantastic. We highly recommend Sundog Cottage.

We had a great time at Sundog Cottage. Our four legged friends gave it a gold star, they loved the dog friendly beach so much, no leash required. The beach is huge and we spent two hours walking it with our pups every morning. The cottage is equipped with everything you could possible need and Valerie is an amazing host. You do need to be fairly fit and able as the cottage is up a hill from the beach although it’s only a 5mins walk. You can drive down and pay the $10 weekdays and $15 weekend parking rate. We enjoyed sitting on the front porch in the evenings after exploring the surrounding area and eating lots of yummy seafood. We are Scottish and the area reminded us so much of home. We will definitely return.

Sun Dog was so comfortable, clean, and well appointed. The proximity to the beach and great hiking made it a wonderful stay. Valerie was communicative and very thoughtful. We brought out dog Arlo, and appreciated all the little touches to make traveling with him a positive experience. We can't wait to return!

Valerie was an excellent host. She kept In touch with me before, during and after our visit. The cottage is relaxing and perfect for me and my dog. The cottage has 2 bedrooms, but I only needed one bedroom. It was a short walk to the beach. And it is a beautiful beach. We will be back!

Sundog is a very special place to stay in a very special place to visit. Dillon Beach is as funky as it is charming. We needed a quick getaway (our home is only an hour or so away) with our lab Olive after we lost her, and our, buddy Drake. It was just the medicine we all needed. Valeries was great, accommodating, and communicative. Excellent host.

Had a lovely time at Sundog. We brought our dog as well. It was great to have a fenced in yard so we could eat our breakfast outside while she played and listened to the birds chirping. Short walk down to the beach, and a convenient general store just down the street for basic food items. would definitely stay again, great getaway :)

Perfect cottage with a delightfully equipped kitchen.

Sundog cottage was perfect for our intention of getting away from hectic schedules and get in tune w/ nature and have fun, family bonding time as we prepare to become empty nesters in September. The cottage was the perfect distance from the beach and balanced beach time and cottage time on the deck or preparing delicious healthy meals in the fully equipped kitchen. We became reacquainted with the game clue and were reminded that the simple things can bring great joy!
