The Holly Hill Cottage was clean and well furnished. It is a bit funky in layout with the shower downstairs and bedrooms upstairs but managable.

The home is nestled in trees and yet a short drive to the ocean. For anyone fleeing HOT summer temps in their home town this area is a gorgeous respite. The bedrooms are upstairs and the bathroom has a big bathtub with a gorgeous window out to the tree tops. For a shower you need to use the ground floor bathroom.

Wonderful home in a tucked away area. Deer and wild turkey everywhere. Great location and great house.

House was very nice on the interior. Beds comfy, TV, kitchen, decor, all great.
BUT…Driveway will keep us from ever coming back! Not only is it incredibly short and steep right down to the tiny garage (which we never used.). But the driveway apron to the dirt road (which was also very steep) was a gravel and dirt ditch! No traction and lots of skidding. Gravel spraying our Chrysler 300 C, and city ordinance prohibits street parking! Recommend High profile vehicle with 4WD ONLY! .

Our stay was great as always. The cottage was clean and well stocked, although a grab bar might be useful in the upstairs tub for some. The beds are great but the view from the deck is what we come back for. Great wildlife view and a wonderful place to decompress while on vacation. We no longer consider other properties if Holly Hill Cottage is available.

Nice quaint cottage in the forest above town. Location was central to the highway, coast and town of Cambria. Large bedrooms but no fenced yard for pets, shower downstairs (very noisy fan) and bath up where the bedrooms are, but overall a comfortable and reasonably priced rental and we enjoyed our stay.

We had a very nice time. House is well appointed. Great fireplace and nice for our dog.

Older home that could use a little updating of plugs, carpet and downstairs bathroom fan, but satisfied our short stay. This place is within walking distance of the Christmas light show and market place and has a beautiful back porch area. Although I did mention some of the needed updates, we wouldn't hesitate to stay here again!

Reviewer Comments:
This house was in a convenient location for our stay this time. The house needs some TLC as to updating and repairs though. It also was sparsely stocked for the price. There is no shower in the master bathroom upstairs which was inconvenient and not obvious from the pictures. The property management company is our first choice for finding a rental. Overall we still had a nice stay in Cambria.
4.6
We enjoyed our stay very much. Checkin was seamless, neighborhood was quiet and it was walking distance (1 mile), from the preserve. The driveway is very steep, so if you have a car with limited power, it could be a challenge. The kitchen had everything we needed, but we would have appreciated knowing which garbage was the recycle one.

Reviewer Comments:
The cottage itself is quite well located, the surrounding wooded area was delightful. It was well equipped. The driveway however, was not negotiable by our Tesla. We had not been warned about how steep it is. Photos do not do it justice. Parking on the road was nearly impossible. A kind neighbor kindly allowed us the use of his parking pad.

Enjoyed our second stay at this place. Supurb location on a wooded hillside close to town, quiet with few immediate neighbors. Cozy 2 br with a single garage. Clean and well-stocked with all the essentials and comfortable beds. OK ATT cell signal and good wi-fi. (Careful not to lock yourself out in Garage or rear deck with the bathroom-type auto locking door knobs) Only downsides were several carpet stains and a very noisy exhaust fan in the lower level bath. Would definitely stay here again :)

Vacation
Most of the reviews are correct for this home but with some added thoughts. One reviewer says there are a lot of spiders. This home is near a beautiful woods and wildlife so yes, there are spiders most of them are around the outside of the home. The outside around the home could use some cleaning. The inside is just very dated and needs updating but if you don't mind older living then it will be fine. The house just needs updating but it was clean and served our purposes just fine. Another reviewer said that there were kids on a trampoline, which is true, but when we stayed they only jumped on it once and it wasn't loud if you are inside. We spent most of our time on the balcony and the woods right outside are beautiful. The deck needs updating and cleaning but the house is in a great location. The neighbors were nice. The stove is very old but it worked fine. The check in and check out process was easy and I never needed to contact the company during our stay. There is a shower downstairs and the giant tub upstairs. Both worked fine but I can't comment on the heating of the water since we didn't fill the tub. Overall, it was good place to stay but I think the place could be so much better if updated. I don't know if I would stay again. We usually find places with hard wood floors for allergy reasons. This place is all carpet. We chose this place because we booked our vacation really late in the year so all other places were taken. If it's in your price range than I think its a good place to use for a few days.

Reviewer Comments:
Good location and well maintained but disappointing for our stay. We booked for a restful vacation because of the upstairs bathtub and it looked quiet and private. The large bathtub is great in theory but there is never enough hot water to fill it even when you don't run the dishwasher or use the washing machine. Was a huge letdown and waste of money for the $13 Lush bath bombs I wasted trying over and over again to make it work. What the photos also don't show is that there is a house right next door with young children who play constantly on an outdoor trampoline. Lastly, there are woodpeckers and some kind of critters living in the external walls of the living room (just ask our pets, they were obsessed). So while this is a great location (close to town), the rental itself is not that great and we were not relaxed during our stay. We left a day early.

We love the Holly Hill Cottage. The location, wildlife, and the cottage itself are great. The area is quiet but expect woodpeckers and turkeys to make a bit of noise in the morning. Our only disappointment was to find that the soaking tube upstairs was not functional...plumbing had been removed and holes left by missing faucets were covered with tape. We were never told of this before arrival and, like a previous reviewer, hope that this will be fixed soon. If not the photos should show things as they are. Other than that we will still look forward to another visit after calling first.

We loved our stay in this cottage. It was super relaxing and cozy. It has a beautiful view surrounded by forest and wildlife including deer, turkeys and squirrels. The fireplace made it super warm and cozy. The big kitchen provided us ample room to cook delicious meals. The location is amazing! You can easily walk to the Pines Lodge and take their stairs to town. The Fiscalini Preserve is only a short hike away and you can also walk to the beach. I was a little disappointed that the upstairs bath did not work, but I'm sure it'll be fixed next time.

Great location in the trees, close to town but very quiet. A lot of nick-nacks around, and the oldest surviving Cuisineart coffeepot... but a very clean, comfortable and private location which was surprisingly close to town.

This house was well suited for spending time with family in the area. Moonstone Beach was lovely. Close to Cayucos, San Simeon Beach and Hearst Castle( closed unfortunately). If you are looking for a quiet getaway, this is it.

Everything was great. Garage and back door automatically lock you out but it added to the memory when getting help to get back in. Turkeys truly do walk around and you can sit in nature right on the porch. Town is very close making it an ideal spot.

We loved being able to wake up to pine trees and enjoy coffee on our back deck before taking the short drive down to the beach for the day. Quiet, secluded home with lots of space made for a we-can't-wait-to-get-back-there visit to Cambria!
