We keep coming back because this has become our pup’s favorite staycation spot. He loves the large yard, watching the trails from the windows, and exploring the nearby beach and hiking trails with us.The home is simple, comfortable, and has everything needed for a few days away. During our last stay, the yard had become overgrown with foxtails, which can be dangerous for dogs. The owners responded quickly and sent a gardener, but the clippings were left behind, so we weren’t comfortable letting our pup run freely.A few improvements, such as working windows for enjoying the ocean breeze and a fire pit in the yard, would make the experience even better. Overall, we love the peaceful feel of Montara and look forward to returning.

Thank you for your feedback. We're glad to hear you appreciated the location and found it convenient for beaches, and hiking. We look forward to hosting you in the future
Close to the beach, quiet, no issues checking in or out. Bed was super comfortable. Loved looking out at the beach and seeing the water. I could not figure out how to turn the lights on or if they’re were lights at all in the backyard on so taking dogs out at night was a little difficult. The gate at the end of the driveway doesn’t meet the pavement, so if you have smaller dogs will have to watch very closely that they don’t crawl under.

Great place to stay in Montara.
This beautiful studio was the perfect place to stay while we visited Montara! It gave us access to Half Moon Bay, the beaches and Pacifica. The studio was spotlessly clean, well appointed and the view of the mountains and ocean was incredible.

Great location a block from the State beach and a trailhead for hiking and biking with beautiful ocean views. The house is lovely, and quiet with a huge yard and it was great to be able to have my dog with me. Would love to come back again.
