Enjoyable Stay!

Really had sucg a lovely time at the Orchid Cottage. Came with family for our annual summer vacation. The house was very comfortable! The beds were probably the best. My husband and I have never slept so well on vacation. Hopefully we will be able to visit the cottage again soon.

Fantastic stay!

We loved this place! Exactly as advertised and the owner instantly answered all our questions. The kitchen was one of the best equipped I’ve ever seen and we were able to cook many meals here and saved hundreds of dollars on dining out costs. The hub tub in the back was an added nice touch and we enjoyed it every night. Finally, this house was ideal for our medium size dog. She loved the back yard and was very relaxed here. We will definitely come back.

Peaceful trip

Very happy with this place! The beds were very comfortable, the spa already heated, and the kitchen had everything I needed. The location is great as well, we walked to the beach and there is a lovely walking path off of the beach too. Only complaint would be that one of the bedrooms also has a dresser in front of the door and it blocks some of it. Not a big deal but a bit annoying when we needed to get baby in the middle of the night, we had to remember to not run into it.

Enjoyable Stay!

The house is very comfortable. The yard was perfect for our little dog, thanks to the little wire fence that we could place in front of the carport. The stars are amazing. It's located in a quiet neighborhood. We would stay there again!

The Perfect Home Away From Home

My husband and I, and our two pups loved our stay at Barron's home. It's difficult to find somewhere nice to stay with dogs and we have finally found it here. The home is exceptional, it has everything you need: well stocked kitchen, comfortable with the most amazing beds, you'll feel like you're sleeping on a cloud! Great yard for dogs with a rollout fence so there are no worrys about leaving the dogs loose. And there's the hot tub and fast wifi. We've found a great place we look forward to coming back to!

Small house with great benefits

The place has everything one may need to stay comfortably and care free with close proximity to Pacific Ocean. It is better to stay with a close family or friends. Space is not big, but clean, has front porch and cozy backyard. Ocean, supermarket, walking trails in walking distance. Very quiet place.

Comfortable stay

House was comfy with super cozy beds and linens. Weather was unfortunately terrible the entire time, and it was not an ideal place to be when you can't go outside (not a ton of light inside), though patio and yard would have been great if weather allowed. Hot tub was a pleasant bonus. House was well appointed with amenities and extras, making the stay easy.

A Mixed Bag Near the Beach

This rental has some great upsides, especially its convenient location near the beaches. We really enjoyed relaxing in the hot tub after a day out, and the bed and linens were exceptionally comfortable, making for a great night's sleep.However, there were a few significant drawbacks that impacted our stay. The living room felt very cluttered, with far too much furniture packed into a small space, which made it less enjoyable to relax in. We were also disappointed by the lack of beach supplies; it would have been helpful to have chairs, an umbrella, or towels readily available given the proximity to the coast. The outside vegetation also didn't quite live up to the photos – it appeared a bit neglected and dead in some areas. Finally, we struggled with the heater, as we couldn't figure out how to turn it off, which was uncomfortable at times.Overall, while the location and amenities like the hot tub and comfortable bed were definite highlights, the issues with the living room, outdoor aesthetics, and heater kept this from being a perfect stay.

Very nice cottage, well supplied and very comfortable.

We had a very nice stay with our two dogs. It is a lovely cottage on a quiet street. The kitchen is fully stocked with all sorts of food and staples that are included in the rental. The only downside was that although it is pet friendly, the backyard is not enclosed. As far as the dogs were concerned an enclosed yard would have made their trip!! My husband felt that the refrigerator was a bit noisey which interrupted his sleep but it didn't bother me! The beach is definetly within walking distance but that particular beach access does not allow dogs as it is a plover nesting sanctuary.

The house was super clean and comfortable, the beds were amazing in the living room , the couch was big and plushy. The kitchen was fully stocked with anything you need to cook with along with a nice size refrigerator and good working stove. This was a great launching pad for all the adventures in the Morro Bay area.

Peaceful Visit

It was a lovely stay in a quiet neighborhood. There are many things to do within a 30 minute drive. There are even a few restaurants that are within a short walking distance. The kitchen and house were fully stocked and we were very comfortable. There was great communication with the owner. I will definitely book here again!

A Very Nice Weekend

Super clean. Great amenities. Well stocked. Fantastic location. The only two reasons it didn’t get the highest rating across the board are because we arrived 45 minutes early and were told we couldn’t check in early even though there was no activity at the house and the property is not fully fenced so when I sat outside with my dog I had to worry about something catching her attention that might cause her to run into the street. Other than that I only have great things to say about The Orchid Cottage.

What a gem!

Great little cottage by the beach. Well stocked gem of a place! 5 minute walk to Morro Strand beach. Great rear yard and front deck for our dog. Although the carport area of the rear yard is open, the spool of wire fencing and a couple chairs worked perfectly to create an enclosed space for our pup! Hot tub was really nice to enjoy in the evening. Super comfortable beds! Overall a great experience! Highly recommend
