Get the feel of a rustic cabin without having to drive up a mountain or into the woods. This charming home on the ocean features four bedrooms with queen beds and three full bathrooms with open living space with vaulted ceilings. Snuggle up in front of the fireplace and watch the waves roll in. There is a secluded beach below and it is less than 5 minutes to walk to Dillon Beach.
This location offers some of the best views you will find anywhere on the west cost looking over all of Bodega Bay with waves crashing on the rocks and incredible sunsets. It's a quick hike to the secluded beach below and a short walk down the street to the path to Dillon Beach. Dogs only are considered for this property.

Beautiful property with a great sunset view of the ocean
We arrived on time to check in the check-in process was easy. The place was clean. The host was easy to communicate with.We had a great time although it’s raining it was still beautiful and the surrounding restaurant it was great
Our family had a wonderful experience over the recent holiday. Well appointed, very clean, well located ( Petaluma was close for supplies and activities. The house was beautifully situated. We would highly recommend the Pelicans Nest.
Going to bed with the sounds of waves crashing, waking up to that beautiful ocean was just what we needed. Just two of us staying as a home base for beach time and exploring. The house was well stocked for our needs, the beds were super comfy and very clean. Thank you!
Great location. Comfy beds and all kitchen needs met. Property managers very responsive and checked in to insure we had all we needed. Would recommend this property.
The view from this location is why you come here. Like another commenter replied, hearing the ocean crash on the rocks is what made this a great outing. I will also say driving around and finding local cheese shops, bakeries, and side of the road honor system farm fresh veggie/egg huts rounded out the trip perfectly. The whole family gave the location a thumbs up.
This house has amazing views of the ocean. It is a Rustic Cabin from the outside but modern on the inside. Great appliances and all the gear and utensils you need. Would stay again in a heartbeat. Memories of the sunsets will be our favorite forever!
Awesome ocean views! Really amazing views, house was clean and well equipped and comfortable beds. 3 of the 4 bedrooms have ocean views nice to wake up to in the morning. Boat launch is 15min drive from house. Overall awesome time and already thinking of another trip back!
We were two families with three very young kids who spent a birthday weekend at this location. The views were spectacular, communication with the host was easy, and we had plenty of space to spread out and enjoy our stay. I’m not sure that this location should be considered “luxury” as the inside is quite outdated unlike the photos, but this did not impact the quality of our stay. The short drive to Dillon Beach was also a big plus, we went multiple times. I recommend this stay.
This house is beautiful and rustic. The views are breathtaking!! Every age of the family enjoyed our stay! Thank you for have our family and our furry baby’s! The walk down to your private beach is not easy but if you take the walk the beach is beautiful!
We rented the house to celebrate my sister and nieces birthday for the weekend. The house was in good shape and had everything we needed for the weekend. It was very close to the beach and had a fantastic view of the ocean. The internet worked great and bedroom heaters were nice.
The large windows have no curtains to block the setting sun which heated up the living room and gave quite the glare. Other than needing some curtains for the big windows, the stay was great.
Our extended family of 10 (ages 73 to 11) had a wonderful stay! Yes, the cabin is "rustic" as advertised, but the location is priceless! Amazing ocean and sunset views from the bluff overlooking the private beach below. When the tide is out the scenic little beach is great for beachcombing and playing in the waves and we all spent hours down there. The little path from the back of the house to the beach directly below is a bit steep and rocky (though this 73 year old made it up and down OK) but is well worth the scramble. When we took the grandkids over to beautiful Dillon Beach one afternoon, they begged to come back to "our private beach that was way more fun"... The house was stocked with everything we needed and the beds were clean and comfortable. And as an added bonus you get deer wandering across the yard every morning! The property managers were very prompt and responsive when we called with a problem when we first arrived, and were there immediately to remedy the issue, which was appreciated. Overall we had a great time there, with lots of family memories made
Our family of 8 adults and 2 infants enjoyed our 3 night stay. The view from the house has to be seen to be believed. Beds and linens were very comfortable. The living room and dining area were big enough for us to spread out in. The kitchen was well supplied. We would definitely visit again.
