Moonglow Cottage was exceptional! It was very cozy and comfortable. Great location within 5 minute walking distance of the Fiscalini Ranch Preserve. There were wild turkeys and deer roaming around the neighborhood. Enjoyable experience overall!
10.0
The neighborhood was beautiful and we really enjoyed our stay. House is small, and kitchen was a little funky, but had places to sit quietly out on a small balcony and enjoy the wildlife in the early mornings and late afternoon. Parking was a little tricky and the streets were tight. To get to town of Cambria you definitely should drive since you need to cross 1, and moonstone beach is a hilly walk. But the property was nice, clean and quiet. Great place to stay and relax.

Our son got married in Cambria over the weekend and we had East Coast relatives extend their stay for a few days of fun on the Central Coast.
My wife and I along with my other son and his girlfriend stayed in the house while my sisters and their husbands rented another home in the neighborhood. While both houses were lovely we all agreed that the Moonstone Cottage was the best experience. Pictures in listing were accurate, lots of extra touches and fully equipped kitchen. Very organized and detailed book of instructions and recommendations was helpful for us.
Only minor quibble was a dresser used as a side table next to the bed was higher than the bed and a hazard for hitting your head or elbow getting up at night, but I understand the desire to maximize storage options.
We plan to come back to Cambria again and will definitely stay here again.

we really enjoyed our stay here. however, we were a little surprised at the access to get to living level. the stairs and walkway up to the main level were a challenge for senior renters. once inside it was great.

So glad we discovered Cambria and this house! The house was spotlessly clean, well stocked, the decor was warm and inviting. The beach, adjacent parks, and a nature preserve are all within a short walk. Cambria is a funky little town - not overly developed, no fast food restaurants, which, for us, is perfect. My only regret is we were only able to stay two nights. Definitely have to go back!

My husband and I had a great week stay here (our second visit to this home)! This home is beautiful, very clean, comfortable, and a great location close to pretty much everything you could need- the beach, nature walks, restaurants, shopping in town, grocery store, etc. The outdoor area is peaceful with a fire pit, landscaping/trees, and we watched many deer come up through the neighborhood in the evenings. Kathy was communicative during booking and also with instructions for accessing the home. We had no issues while there. Overall, a wonderful home to stay in while visiting Cambria!

As a longtime visitor to the beautiful little town of Cambria, this is one of the finest and beautifully decorated properties i’ve had the pleasure of staying. The peace and tranquility of the outdoor balcony/sitting area is unmatched and I could’ve stayed out there all day and night. Check in was extremely easy as was communication with property owner/manager and I would Love to return someday. Thank you for making your beautiful property so inviting and welcoming.

This property is beautiful and cozy with gorgeous view of the area from the great room. It is close to downtown Cambria. It is well stocked with all the essentials that you need for a home away from home.

We love Cambria , but have only stayed in a bed and breakfast. This time we chose a house. The house is lovely and well maintained. All appliances were top rate and plenty of dishes and other necessities were available. The only thing I would suggest is a few more towels. If we had any concerns Kathy the host answered us very quickly . We had a great time ! If you are seniors like us, the steps are a challenge , but well worth the exercise!

I've been to Cambria before and loved it...but this trip was extra special, it was both mine and my boyfriends 47th birthdays and we celebrated with his brother in Cambria at MoonGlow. We loved the outside amenities of the home as well as inside! Everything was perfect! Especially the turkeys and deer right out our window every morning! I can't wait to come back and bring more family!

Great vacation house. Extremely well supplied. The master bed was very comfy. The 2nd bedroom bed was nice, but very firm. The showers and water pressure were excellent. Our only complaint is that there is no air conditioning as listed in the property description. We were on a summer getaway and the option of cooling was important to us. There is a page in the house rules book, under heat category that says "there is no A/C in this house, because it isn't necessary". That may be, but it should not say there is in the VRBO amenities list.
10.0
Perfect house for my daughter and myself for our mother/daughter getaway. Loved the little outdoor patios on each of three levels and enjoyed the heat bowl in the evenings. The house was well lit inside – a rarity for houses of this ilk and appreciated the light switches being labeled. The only thing I would have appreciated having which was not there was Kleenex. I’ve stayed at many many VRBO houses, and this was the first one I found without Kleenex.

We loved staying at the Moonglow Cottage. It had everything we needed for our little family of 3. The house has its own charm and felt very welcoming. Indoor and outdoor spaces, bedrooms, and kitchen are all well thought out. Would definitely recommend this to friends and family

We loved our stay at Moonglow. The cottage is well appointed and very comfortable. The wonderful location is close to all the wonders of Cambria and the central coast.
Coming home to Moonglow Cottage at the end of each day’s adventure was a joy. The Fiscalini Ranch is just a short walk from the cottage and offers breathtaking views of the coast. Don’t pass up this wonderfully warm and luxurious cottage.

A beautiful home: perfectly appointed and kept. I have visited and stayed in Cambria many times - this time I brought family from Germany to experience the town, the restaurants, nature, and peace. Moonglow Cottage is an ideal place to stay in order to enjoy them all. 100% will return.

We visit Cambria often and are so happy to have found this rental. This is one of our favorites of the many homes we’ve rented over the years. The home was spotless upon arrival, including all of the kitchenware which sometimes gets overlooked. There really is everything you could need to cook meals at home. It’s such a cozy place to stay and we look forward to visiting again. Thank you!

This little bit of cozy was just perfect for two couples enjoying all that Cambria has to offer. The easy access to the Fiscalini Preserve made sunset watching so convenient. All the details in the house were top-notch, -- we all especially oved the luxurious bedding. The kitchen with a GIANT countertop was a great place to gather.
