We had a wonderful stay and the home was beautiful with great views. The home was set with everything you’d need during your stay especially the kitchen being fully ready for all you would need while cooking and hosting in the home. Do bring your own pillows as most of the pillows were pretty flat. The only setback was the comfort of the pullout couches/futons. There is plenty of room for the # of adults stated to sleep in the home but once the actual beds are taken the futons and pull out beds in the loft are pretty stiff and uncomfortable. The home is perfect for 6-7 adults and the kids can take the hard beds. Overall, a great place to spend with your loved ones.

Thank you so much for the thoughtful review! We’re thrilled to hear you had a wonderful stay and enjoyed the beautiful home, views, and well-equipped kitchen. It sounds like you had a great time gathering with your loved ones!
We also really appreciate your honest feedback about the pillows and the comfort of the futons and pull-out beds. We’ll definitely share this with the team and the owners as we’re always looking for ways to improve our guests’ experience.
Thank you again for staying with us. We’d love the opportunity to host you and your loved ones again in the future!
Beautiful, ample property with spectacular views and great interior lighting. Quiet neighborhood (which we loved) with HOA requirements (no off-street parking allowed). Well-stocked kitchen and plenty of fun games and activities to do on the property (pool table, darts, air hockey, hot tub, party games and puzzles). Close, but steep road access down to Dillon Beach. It was a perfect location for our family reunion of three generations. Highly recommend.

Thank you so much for the kind words! We’re thrilled to hear you enjoyed your stay at Northern Lights. We’d love to host you again!
The house was great. Very accurately described and also great views. The decor is so cute! The couches are comfy and the vibe is comfy! Amenities were great, towels, beach toys, there is a pool table in the garage, hot tub. The kitchen was so nice! There were extra sheets and towels! And it was so nice to have a fan in each room as white noise or to get some extra air, such a nice touch! The notes everywhere really helped. Also the game collection was fantastic. Also the kids room with toys was so nice!! I do feel like this host went above and beyond to make this house feel special. I would recommend that the cleaners get under the couches/beds and in the nooks and crannies! It was a little dirty in areas. The stairs are super creaky, but in addition to that the bed upstairs was super creaky. I don’t know if those things can be fixed but it made for a rough night of sleep.
We really enjoyed this Northern Lights home. The location, house, dining area, kitchen, bedrooms, game room, deck views and hot tub suited our three families’ needs perfectly. We feel blessed to have found Northern Lights and hope to stay again. Thank you!

We are so happy to hear you had such a lovely time!
The rooms were clean and spacious, kitchen very well stocked, did not use hot tub. Liked all of the different spaces in the house to allow for a variety of activities. The kids loved their room and the games in the garage. Beautiful views and location.

Lovely home in Dillon Beach!! Great kitchen/main room, nice bedrooms. Functional kitchen and relaxing hot tub. Easy 30 minute drive to Bodega Bay. Only negative -- WAY too many restrictions and communication from the management company. The binder was 40 pages. Everything was "DON'T DO THIS" or "XYZ NOT ALLOWED." Because everything had rules, it diluted which rules actually mattered and the interpretation is that they had been burned by messy/rowdy groups before, and therefore swung the pendulum back too far the other way. We had a running joke over the weekend and a betting pool on what the final fine would be (purely based on the fact that it seems impossible to stay there without incurring some sort of fine). It cut into how relaxed you can feel staying there.

Thank you for your thoughtful review. We're delighted to hear that you enjoyed the home, including the kitchen, bedrooms, hot tub, and the convenient location near Bodega Bay.
We also appreciate your feedback regarding the house binder and guest communications. Many of our policies are in place to comply with local short-term rental regulations and to help preserve the home and neighborhood for future guests.
Your comments are valuable, and we'll take them into consideration as we review how we present important information to guests. Our goal is to clearly communicate the rules that truly matter while making the overall experience feel welcoming and enjoyable.
Thank you again for staying with us, and we hope to have the opportunity to host you again in the future.
I stayed here with 11 other family members and this house was perfect for us. The community is still pretty private so it was a nice getaway for us. I would definitely recommend this place to anyone asking for a nice relaxing getaway that was perfect for my big family.

Hi Juan, thanks so much for your review! I'm glad that Northern Lights was the perfect fit for you and your family! It is a great property for a large family gathering like yours. You were wonderful guests and we hope to host you again sometime soon!
The stay was great! Our family had an amazing time. Great views and comfortable facility. Entertainment rooms for the kids. One minor unavoidable issue was the house had a lot of noise at night from the wind causing some rattling in the fireplace upstairs and the sliding door upstairs. Not anyone’s fault at all but could bother light sleepers. Host sent out the check in and check out materials and the visitors guide which were all extremely helpful and well organized. Wonderful stay and would recommend and book again.

We are so happy to hear you had a great time! Yes there can be some sounds as it can be windy out there, you were wonderful guests and hope to host you again!
We spent Friendsgiving here and loved the views and projector for a cozy weekend in. The trail to the beach near to the house was STUNNING. Highly recommend going if you stay here and the weather is nice.

What a great find, a lovely large coastal property, great views, clean and cozy, a lovely, practical living room/kitchen/dining area, plenty of space for bigger parties. Perfect seclusion if that's your desire.
