Beautiful maintained home in quiet neighborhood and walking distance to the beach. Well equipped home for all my family needs.
5.0 / 5.0
Pam was easy to communicate with, responding kindly and quickly. The house is comfortable in every way with including the bed, the garden, the living room and the well appointed kitchen. The house how quite a few pieces of art, ceramics, small sculptures, books and memorabilia but it is not at all crowed and made the house feel like a home. The location was excellent for quickly getting to walks above and on the beach as well as for restaurants, and yet it was extremely quiet. The fact that it is quite close to Rt 1 could have meant we would hear road noise, but with the bedroom windows closed we didn't hear a drop and even with them closed there was rarely audible road noise.
The only inaccuracy re: the listing is that it stated that there was a hot tub, there is not. There is a one person jacuzzi tub. Luckily, I had inquired when I didn't see evidence of a hot tub in the photos, so this was not a surprise.

The cottage was beautifully appointed and immaculate. Very cozy living space with a well-equipped kitchen. My husband and I love to spend time near the sea and this cottage was very close to our favorite beach. Communication with the host was very pleasant. I highly recommend a stay at Grace at the Sea for a relaxing and fun vacation.

We had an amazing stay at this cozy cottage like house! As a mom of two littles I'm a bit picky of location, and this place felt very safe! The house, beds, and furniture were really comfortable. My two little ones say this is their favorite place we have stayed to date and "it feels like a happy home not a hotel" as they put it so well. The house had everything we needed and more. The outdoor spaces and the upper deck are a major highlight! We spent so much time outside enjoying time among the flowers. You can see the beach off in the distance a bit and could definitely walk to it (maybe 10min walk) but we chose to drive as it was a bit more than just a stroll down the street. It's only about 15 min from goat Rock beach which was our preferred beach. The host was great to work with and she was beyond friendly and helpful. We will be staying here again on our next visit to the area! Thank you!

We love staying in Salmon Creek at this great little house. We have stayed here for several days on several occasions. Pam keeps the place immaculate and fully equipped. Quick walk to an amazing and wild beach and a new regional park in the hills across Highway One. We plan on staying here again in our annual trek to the Sonoma Coast.

Perfect reset for me and the kids! The cottage was well taken care of, with everything we needed. Great DVD selection as well! Super close to the beach, horseback riding, and golf.
Thank you, we’ll be back.

Comfortable. Clean. Quiet. Well stocked. Homey with lots of decorative items around. Close to beach and walking trail. Good restaurants in the area. Wish we could’ve had a fire, but totally understand the wildfire danger in California.

We loved the location and cottage itself. Cozy and warm, and we could hear the ocean at night! Pam is lovely and left us lemon bars made from the lemons from her backyard tree. FYI, there isn’t a second, separate bedroom; the second bed is in the living room. I didn’t see that in the online description

Thank you Pam for allowing us to stay! It was a safe, cute, immaculate place to land to visit with our son. We sat outside and ate and star gazed and were wondrous of the sounds of the surf. Great to see the surfers lined up from there even if they looked like ants. You are a fabulous host and we are so grateful to have found you!

Great space. Beautifully decorated with beach vibe. Close to bodega bay in quiet, quaint neighborhood. Host was very friendly and responsive to question. She even left us the best homemade chocolate chip, walnut cookies.

We really liked the house. It's in walking distance from the beach and in a very quiet area. Very responsive host. Our toddler had great fun using the beach toys which were available in the yard.

The property is immaculate. Not just cleaned by a service but obviously loved and well kept. The second floor bedroom has views of the water. Salmon Creek is just outside of Bodega Bay requiring driving but was a great home base for our explorations (hiking on Bodega Head, Schoolhouse Beach and Doran Beach). The beach at Salmon Creek was a bit more sparse and favored by surfers for the waves, which weren't great for our little kids. The host was very responsive. Highly recommend this vacation site.

I had read nothing but 5-Star reviews, so we booked. It was such a pleasant surprise. It felt better than the pictures. The area was fabulous, the cottage was adorable and very cozy. We would highly recommend!! The host left us a lemon loaf which was so delicious! Also gave us recommendations for a community to visit between airport and cottage. LOVED the entire experience.

We really enjoyed our stay. This reminded me of when we stayed in VRBO's years ago. This homeowner really cares about the guests. The cottage was very clean and well prepared. It also had lots of personality with paintings and other furnishings which were fun. The woodwork is beautiful throughout. You can sit on the balcony upstairs and see the ocean. The walk to the ocean is about 10 minutes and the trail to the Bodega Community Center is just across the street. I did both! Decide based on which way the wind is blowing!

Grace by the Sea was a perfect getaway for my family! Upon arrival, the cottage smelled wonderfully clean and everything looked sparkling. My young children made themselves right at home and found the beach toys and created a “secret garden” in the beautiful yard and seating areas. We had the perfect view of the sun setting over the ocean from the upper balcony; the beds and furniture were comfortable; the house was stocked with everything we needed; the neighborhood was cute and quiet and close proximity to the beach; Pam was quick to respond during initial conversations and was friendly and accommodating. We had a lovely stay and think anyone else would enjoy their time in this sweet cottage!

This was a wonderful home! Quiet, clean, comfortable, and close to everything we wanted to see and do! There is a wonderful beach and meadow trail a short walk away. We are frequent VRBOers. This home was one of our favorites!

Pam is a wonderful and lovely host. Her home is cozy and impeccable! Clean, comfortably furnished, and full of every kitchen essential you will need to make your trip feel like your home away from home. Our family of 4 (our teen sons are 17 & 18 now) has been renting this quaint cottage by the sea for 12 years, and we feel so blessed that Pam's Grace by the Sea holds some of our family's most cherished memories! It is comfy and roomy enough for the 4 of us, and is walking distance to beautiful beaches, the bike trail, and the Sunday farmers market. Enjoy wine and beautiful ocean views from the master bedroom deck, Pam's scrumptious desserts, movies from her vast collection, and the many varied books from her shelves. The Pelican Market is nearby, and there are lots of great restaurants to choose from. You can walk down to the beach through her neighborhood. Be sure to check out the lending library on your way. Every day you don't stay here is one more you will wish you did. :)) Thanks for the wonderful time, Pam. :)) See you soon!!!

The owner is always so thoughtful, leaving a snack or other special treat to welcome us. We have been coming to Grace at the Sea for years and each time we note Pam has done something to improve the place, patio, sharp kitchen knives, well stocked kitchen, with all kinds of condiments condiments,etc. She is easy yo reach of you need her. Don’t get me wrong-it was always great and improvements weren’t necessary, but have made the place even more comfortable. Its always really clean when we arrive and just a short walk to the beach. Thanks Pam

Very comfortable, clean, easy to use. Very private. Easy to access the beach. Long meditative walks along the beach were what brought us here. Brain cleaning experience.

My wife and I stayed here for our 23rd anniversary. We found the location wonderful. Removed from the more tourist areas of Bodega Bay but close enough to get to everything quickly and easily. Very relaxing and very convenient to walk about 10 minutes to the beach. The house had great amenities and Pam was very communicative. Great places to relax or read and enjoy the view - upstairs patio or backyard. We would definitely recommend this place and consider staying again!

Owner communication was tremendous. The payment dates were convenient and cancellation policy very generous. The accommodations were pristine per my wife - a high standard she sets at home. The three porch / patio locations made for flexibility outside. Plenty of clean kitchen utensils and spices if needed. Comfy couch and chairs in living area. A little out of town. There is a sonoma county park trailhead 100 yds away for a 1.1 mile trail and worth walking to the memorial bell tower. Great experience. Thanks Pam.

I had not visited Bodega Bay area until now. Everything was so close from the cottage in Salmon Creek. Very convenient to the other beaches, shops and eateries.
The cottage is well located with an upstairs view of the beach and river.
The home was very comfortable and the little extras like coffee & hot chocolate to name a few, were convenient.
The kids LOVED the jetted bathtub.
We enjoyed a crab dinner on the back yard picnic table.
Thank you Pam for sharing your home with us! Hope to be back in the Summer when its warmer. It was a little chilly at the beach.
