The house could use some exterior maintenance—our first impression was underwhelming. The front porch had bird droppings that hadn't been cleaned with an empty nest above. This was a concern with our dogs who wanted to investigate and get the droppings on them. The doormat was flipped on the grass with tons of ants underneath, possibly from spilled food.Inside, the house was fairly clean overall, though some areas like the window corners had visible cobwebs that accumulated over time and seemed to have been missed. The backyard also needed a bit more care. It would have been helpful to know ahead of time that the BBQ grill was charcoal.The listing mentioned a panoramic ocean view, but in reality, nearby houses blocked much of it.Despite these issues, we still enjoyed our stay—but for the price, we expected the home to be in better condition. A little more attention to detail would go a long way.

Perfect for a casual family holiday!

We were looking for a place where family members from central and Northern California could gather to celebrate the holidays - fro grandchildren to grandparents (us). The kids loved the solarium and the adults loved the open kitchen. All love the beach - a drive away. perfect for our visits!

Great dog-friendly large home at Dillon Beach

With two full baths, 3 bedrooms, views of the ocean and a fully enclosed yard, this home is very comfortable for a large group with dogs. The beds are quite comfortable, and the kitchen is fully stocked with all cooking utensils, gadgets, appliances, etc. We also used the BBQ in the yard; plenty of space there for corn hole! It is, however, necessary to drive down to the beach, as this home is at the top of the hill overlooking the ocean; beautiful views!

About the host

Hosted by Shiela Avakian

Host profile image
My family has vacationed at Dillon Beach for the last 45 years and we love it. My father loved the salmon and halibut fishing, my husband the golf, my son the beach and I love the relaxing atmosphere Dillon Beach provided.

Why they chose this property

We purchased this home in Dillon Beach because we love the tranquility and peacefulness that we experience when we are there. There is an abundance of wildlife around to view from the house including deer that roam the neighborhood. You can relax when you want, but you are still close to the big city. You can take day trips to Napa Valley, Sonoma, and the Russian River. We are close to Petaluma, Bodega Bay, Marshall, Occidental, Sebastapol, Jenner, Point Reyes, Tomales Bay, Marin, Guerveville, and the Muir Woods.

What makes this property unique

Dillon Beach has a great beach that is still pet friendly. You can enjoy the miles of sandy beaches or explore the tide pools and rock cliffs. We are 60 miles north of San Francisco and 45 minutes from the Wine Country. There is great fishing, surfing, beach combing, boogie boarding, clamming, crabing, hiking, biking, whale watching and golfing available.
