About this cottage rental

Welcoming, relaxing, quiet, romantic and serene are some of the descriptions used by couples and individuals who've made our hillside Garden Cottage their Cambria destination. You can enjoy an idyllic Cambria experience in this tranquil location surrounded by Monterey Pines and terraced gardens.

An all-wood interior with streaming light from two large window seats combine with a pyramid roof and skylights to enhance a simple yet elegant interior. You’ll enjoy a cozy gas fireplace, hardwood floors, table and chairs, and a comfortable couch in the main living room. An extended window seat overlooks the forested canyon. A second window seat offers equally tranquil views. WiFi ready, and no TV. Just off the living room and down three steps brings you to a cozy sleeping nook with a firm standard size DOUBLE bed with a skylight, stain glass windows and French door to a small garden deck. You’ll find everything you need in the bright terracotta tiled kitchen and wood/tiled floor bathroom with standard-size shower stall. Premium towels and bathrobes provided. Steps away from the cottage is the large garden deck where you can enjoy the private peaceful canyon, wildlife, and distant ocean. The deck is the perfect place for morning yoga, an afternoon glass of wine, and an evening canyon sunset.

You'll find this property unique because it offers an experience of tranquility, open space, privacy, nature views and quiet surroundings, all within walking distance to Cambria Pines Lodge, East Village shops, restaurants, and the Fiscalini Ranch trail head.

A wonderful cabin experience for a non-smoking couple or individual (suitable for adults, two person maximum) needing serene retreat space and a comfortable place to unwind after enjoying a day on the central coast.

We live on the property and enjoy sharing our hillside with mature, respectful adults who are looking for a quality experience in peaceful surroundings. If you plan on entertaining, enjoy loud music into the night or smoke, this is not the vacation rental to choose.

This was by far the most quaint, comfortable, amazing stay we have ever had the pleasure of staying at. The attention to detail by Lissa and John were amazing! Everything you could possibly need (& more) were included in this little house. We did not want to leave!

The Garden Cottage was perfect place to relax, read, nap, sip coffee, enjoy birds, gentle breezes and sunshine! Every inch of the small cozy space is utilized and simply decorated. The outdoor gardens are pleasant, even when viewing from the perfect window seat. Comfy bed and quiet surroundings made for peaceful sleep!

What a delightful cottage and area. Lissa and John have thought of everything. It was sweet and beautiful. From cozy blankets to cookies and wine inside to a sun warmed deck and beautiful garden outside. It was perfect. Thank you Lissa and John. The love you put into the cottage is very obvious!

We absolutely loved staying at the Garden Cottage Retreat, and hope to visit again as soon as we can. We were greeted warmly by Lissa, one of the owners, with a fantastic plate or cookies and a wonderful bottle of wine. Somehow, we managed to stay for 3 warm and clear Spring days for our adventures in the area. The cabin was built and decorated divinely, with the guests’ comforts in mind, and we had everything we could possibly need. The gardens are beautiful, with a spacious deck and an umbrella table and chairs. Many beautiful singing birds live here. If you want peace, comfort, beauty and absolute joy, this is the place for you Can’t wait to be able to stay there again!

This property is a model of what a VRBO rental should be. It's in a beautiful location. It's meticulously maintained. And the hosts are unbelievably thoughtful. There is great mindfulness and intentionality in how they've set up the cottage -- from the house slippers to the bath robes to the umbrellas and, perhaps best of all, locally made artisan soaps, lotions, and shampoo. My partner and I thoroughly enjoyed our time here, and our only regret was that we didn't book it for longer.
