This amazing property is located in the heart of Baywood, Los Osos. This 360 square foot cottage accommodates three guests comfortably. This cottage is within walking distance of the Bay where you can find endless trails and places to explore water activities, restaurants, bars and local brew houses. The outside patio is located right off of the front door and includes a fire pit that creates the perfect atmosphere for sitting and relaxing or roasting marshmallows with the family. If you find yourself wanting to leave your cozy cottage you can travel North towards Morro Bay, Cayucos, Cambria, San Simeon and as far as Big Sur. Traveling South will take you towards San Luis Obispo, Pismo Beach, Avila Beach, and Arroyo Grande. If you are a wine lover head on over to Paso Robles which is an award winning wine destination!!! You will not be let down by its abundance of wineries, breweries and tasting rooms downtown. (it's about a fifty minute drive from your cottage.)
