Amazing Oceanside Cottage w Private Beach Lot

Amazing Oceanside Cottage w Private Beach Lot

10/10 Excellent
"Bring your binoculars to enjoy the truly spectacular view even more! Also pack (or plan to buy) extra supplies in case the “starter supplies” don’t last (TP, paper towels, plastic wrap, coffee filters, etc.). We also prefer to bring our drinking water. And for all those Tesla owners: There’s now a Tesla Supercharging station at Olema House, about a 20-minute drive north on Highway 1."

"The beach cottage was a lovely place to stay! It was so cozy and comfortable. We loved being able to walk just a few yards to the beach and taking long walks along the ocean waves. The bird life was spectacular! Proximity to the Dips Trail was also a plus, and the Parkside Cafe was a great spot for lunch. Karen was extremely responsive and a delight to interact with when we had questions. Would love to come back again soon!"
