Pelican Hill House
Our stay at Pelican Hill House was peaceful and the house had everything we could need. We especially enjoyed the art supplies, board games, books, and yoga mat. Spotlessly clean and the bed was so comfortable. This was a magical stay that allowed us to disconnect and recharge. I seriously can’t recommend this airbnb enough. I hope to return soon!

Ocean View Spa House
Rebecca was an excellent host. Her place was even nicer than the listing: Amazing views, comfy beds, awesome access to trails for hiking and delicious restaurants if you don't feel like cooking.

Ocean Front Beach Cottage with Hot Tub & Fireplace
Absolutely breathtaking views, very comfortable, easy getting to/from, and plenty of nearby conveniences. The beach is perfect for walking, playing in the sand and water, and people (and dog!) watching. Wonderful relaxing weekend - thank you!

Award-Winning Forest Getaway: @thesearanchhouse
Absolutely beautiful spot for a relaxing couple of days outside of the city. Gorgeous property surrounded by tall tress - if you're looking for a peaceful getaway this should be at the top of your list. Looking for an opportunity to return.

Large 4 BR coastal home with amazing ocean views!
Just arrived home from a great stay in Bodega Bay. Kevins place was perfect for 3 couples celebrating a 60th birthday! We all had our own room and bathroom which was perfect. The house was in a beautiful neighborhood with the most amazing views! There were cows on the other side of the fence and deer every morning! Magical! The house had everything we needed and looked just like the photos. We would stay here again! We highly recommend calling Bob at Bodega Bay kayaking! We had a blast and he was great! We also went to Drakes Fireside for dinner. Delicious! And Fishetarian for lunch! Yum!! So many beautiful hikes! We loved Bodega Bay!

Knix's Cabin at Salmon Creek
The air bnb was comfortable, the host was thoughtful, and I would a million times over recommend staying here. This air bnb was walking distance from the beach and I also got to see wildlife! Saw a few California quails and a fox all while sitting on the day bed in the kitchen. Mary was very communicative and it’s obvious how much she cares about her guests’ experience.

Panoramic Ocean views, Walk to Beach & hot tub
Lots of sea birds at beaches. Deer and a bobcat seen near the house. Very cool

Ocean Road
We stayed here a few years ago and once again it did not disappoint. Jon's home was so comfortable and cozy we didn't want to leave. We would love to stay here at least once a month however, that is not our reality. The view and the sound of the waves are so amazing. Thank you so much for sharing your slice of heaven. David & Lori

Amy's Local BNB - walk to town **and hot tub!**
This is the perfect stay in Sebastopol. The location is in a beautiful neighborhood with easy walk to bagels hardline, shopping.’ The space is bright with great storage light and fully stocked kitchen. This was our 2nd stay and we hope it’s available in future. Perfect stay.

Modern mid-century-inspired, Deer Ranch
Amazing retreat in the Redwoods - the property is quiet, has beautiful views of the redwoods with both outdoor sun and shade spots, and has a cool interior. Pool was perfect for cooling off on a hot day. I would stay again! We stayed in May, and while the yard was mowed, it had a type of grass that was very prickly so not barefoot or dog friendly - so we weren’t fully able to enjoy the expansive yard space.

TimberTales - A cozy log cabin | Magical lakeviews
Stayed here a second time, can’t keep thinking about the amazing view that I get to share with my family. Definitely recommend to anyone who wants a peaceful and majestic place.

Rustic Beach Cottage with Hot Tub on Tomales Bay
Absolutely Loved Our Stay at Rustic High Tide Cottage! This place is a dream for nature lovers! The location is perfect for hiking and kayaking—so much to explore right from the doorstep. Falling asleep to the sound of waves crashing beneath you is pure magic. We woke up to beautiful natural light streaming in every morning, and even got the occasional friendly moo from nearby cows—such a charming touch! The host was thoughtful and attentive, making sure we had everything we needed. We didn’t want to leave and can’t wait to come back!

Country Studio Cottage Sanctuary
This is the perfect getaway spot! The photos don't do it justice, the place is surrounded by nature and has almost a treehouse feel to it. We loved the decor and felt the place had all the amenities we needed. We will definitely be back here!

Oceanside Redwood Retreat with hot tub
We had a relaxing time here. Unit was clean and was what was advertised. We enjoyed using the hot tub and viewing the scenery of the area.

Elsewhere - Dreamy getaway in the Redwoods
Elsewhere was easily one of our favorite Airbnbs we’ve ever stayed in. The scenery and attention to detail was pristine and we had a wonderful time cooking meals together and relaxing in the space. The kitchen had everything we needed including cookware and appliances that were even nicer than what we have at home, which is very rare for Airbnbs. Beautiful MCM touches all throughout the home. We hope to stay again in the future!

BodegaBayBeachHome:Astonishing Views-Ocean & Beach
This house was perfect for our family trip! We prepared all meals there and the kitchen had all the supplies and utensils we needed. Beds comfortable and the reclining sofas were great. Beach access right across the street! We also enjoyed the pool table. Weather sunny, which was a bonus. I thank you for the use of the house and definitely recommend it for a family or friends trip!

Guest Fav: Serene & unique retreat on private road
Great spot! Superb communication took us right to this lovely, peaceful home in the redwoods. Occidental is minutes away and completely charming. The house had everything you need for a fantastic stay, especially the kitchen- everything is exactly where you'd expect to find it. Large spacious Great Room, spotless bathroom, great bed, and charming furnishings. This is not a spot for children or pets which was perfect for us. Thank you Marci and Don for an unforgettable weekend! ~Michael & Shannon

Tomales Bay: Tranquility, Bay Views, Kayaks &
Our stay in Debra’s home was fantastic. My friends couldn’t stop saying thank you for finding this beautiful home. Right on the water, beautiful views, very clean and comfortable. We enjoyed every minute

Urban Farm House in Tomales
Linda’s home was a beautiful and spacious cottage in a very small town. There’s not much to do around, it’s the perfect place to stay if you’re looking to have a quiet weekend. Everything was clean and functioning, and Linda communicated very well as needed. Note that the bed is very small, something to be aware of if you’re sharing with a partner.

When Only the BEST Will Do (True Ocean Bluff)
My husband and I stayed at Brian’s place twice, 9 years apart. Both times we found the house and its surroundings incredibly beautiful and calming. The house is full of details, history and stories. All of these transport you into another space where the time flows just right and the mind would relax and recharge.

Sea Star Haven - Steps from the beach
Dillon Beach is an amazing location and this home was well located, very comfortable and in walking distance to everything.

All Waves - View from Point Reyes to Bodega Head
Location. Location. Location. The house was in the perfect spot with the best view from the living room and the patio. Just gorgeous. The house was beautifully constructed with great amenities and everything we needed for a lovely weekend. Heated floors were a nice surprise and def a plus! Loved everything about our stay, will be back soon.

Amazing View and Location!4bed/2bath
Such a beautiful home and was even more gorgeous than in the photos. Host was so responsive and kind and her home is absolutely stunning, a great place for a weekend retreat from the city. Thanks for having us!

Luxury Living in Historic Bank: Haven of Art&Music
This place is one of the more unique finds on AirBnB and I highly recommend it if you are a musician. My girlfriend and I stayed here for a few days to get out of the city and have 24/7 access to baby grand piano for some song writing and creative exploration. If instruments (including a Uke, two guitars, baby grand piano, and working hammond organ) doesn't get your creative spirit flowing the art collection surely will. Make no mistake, it's not your average dwelling and there are some compromises with regards to the kitchen/bathroom. That being said we were able to cook whatever we needed all weekend. The bed is really comfy. The location is surrounded by great hikes and serene landscapes. And to top it all off Bert was a great host. We had a great time and I look forward to returning.
