Cambria CA

This place was spotlessly clean and in a great location. We are walkers and would take off directly from the house. The preserve is about 2 blocks away with endless trails and also the house location is an easy walk to main street Cambria and Moonstone beach. The kitchen has everything you need if you want to do some cooking (we cooked at least one of the two meals/day to save some time and $). The neighborhood is quiet and we met some of the neighbors and they were very friendly. We had great weather the week we were there so out out door time was grand! I would highly recommend Pelican Cottage for a comfortable stay in Cambria.

Great Location!

This was the perfect house for a summer getaway. It was small enough to easliy keep clean & tidy, but with the room upstairs with its own den, bath & patio, made it wonderful when a family member came to visit for a few days. Great location- just a 2 min walk to the Ranch for wonderful walks. 5 min drive to downtown. Very nice quaint property!

Lovely Home

The house was well equipped, spacious, and well supplied. Very clean and welcoming. Well located for Fiscalani Preserve and Moonstone. The outdoor spaces (decks, patio) would definitely benefit from some outdoor furniture such as chairs, table, etc. During our stay, the only furniture outside? Two wood chaises, set in the shade, on a deck outside the downstairs bedroom. Otherwise, nothing! The location of the house made a "walk to the beach" very unlikely (it is located at the top of a rather steep hill).

Amazing Cottage

This is our second stay at this cottage. We loved it just as much as the first time! The location is great. It is just a minute or two walk from a nice hike through Fiscalini Ranch Preserve and a very short drive to Moonstone beach. The cottage itself is very cute. It is impeccably clean. It is warm and cozy. It has great spaces for sitting and reading a book with the family. It is tastefully decorated. Most importantly, the kids love it. I look forward to coming back again.

Loved It, but be careful.

One of the best places we have stayed in our twenty plus years renting vacation houses in Cambria. Only one issue. As my spouse was walking into downstairs bedroom, looking into the room, she did not see that there was a second step, and fell. She wasn’t injured, just shook up; she is 75 and in fine health. All of the carpeting is the same color, and as the step down is shallow, it is easy to not realize the second step is even there. I would suggest something brightly colored on the edge of the floor that leads to the step and on the step itself. Our entire trip was great, and we will surely rent Pelican Cottage again.

Great stay!

House was perfect for our stay. House was clean and kitchen had everything we needed. Location was perfect, neighborhood was lovely. The sitting room attached to the upstairs bedroom doesn’t have window coverings so expect to be woken up with the sun, which was fine for us since we were with our 2 year old.

Comfortable and lovey home.

We loved this comfy, cozy and roomy home. It’s in a beautiful location ½ blk to ocean views and a 5 min walk to the ocean side. We walked almost 7 miles one day. Closed to downtown Cambria and walking trails. The neighbor is so quiet and peaceful. Kind neighbors waving hello. Very clean and we wanted for nothing. We will definitely be back!
