Greg place to stay
We really enjoyed our stay. This was our 2nd time booking this same location and is well worth it. Such a comfy place and was very close to downtown Morro Bay.

Great stay!
The property was great - ample kitchen utensils, very spacious, loved the kitchen seating with the gorgeous view of Morro rock. The location was right next to coffee shops, restaurants, and the Embarcadero. It's a 1.5 miles to Morro Rock, but the sea otter viewing is closer. We had two 3.5 year olds with us and they also enjoyed the house!

Great View and Comfortable Beds
This location is great! Two king size beds and one queen, it is far enough back that the seals don't wake you but if on the porch, you can smell and see the ocean. The View of the rock is stunning, the neighborhood is very quite and it is a small two block walk down to the Embarcadero. Only thing I did not like was the 131 extra Service Fee, as an owner of a rental home I feel that is an excessive fee for literally nothing. Shame on VRBO for charging it, that was an extra 13% of the cost. Will not book at a site that has this fee again. Numbered locks and alarms are enough - a fee for nothing is bad business.

This was the perfect set up for our family stay. Two bedrooms and a bathroom downstairs. Main bedroom and bathroom upstairs. Kitchen, dining and LR upstairs. Nice view of the rock from the dining room. Quiet location for sleeping. Beds were very comfortable. Had everything we needed for our stay. We were in Morro Bay to visit family that have a place there. Definitely will keep this on our list!

Beautiful Home in Morro Bay
We stayed for three nights and wish it had been at least one more. The home is lovely with views of the rock from the living/dining area and only three short blocks from the bay. We did whale watching, watched otters and sea lions in the bay, and drove 30 minutes up the coast to Hearst Castle and the Elephant Seal rookery. Would definitely visit again!

What a wonderful house
We had a glorious stay in this beautiful, comfortable, amazing house. The three bedrooms are well appointed and have such comfortable and cozy linens. The bathrooms are large and clean. So many windows! We love to have open windows to enjoy the coastal air and stunning views. So close to everywhere that we wanted to eat and shop and see! We will definitely stay here again!

Perfect location for walking around Morro Bay
This is a very nice, very well-furnished house, with everything you could possibly need. The three bedrooms make it ideal for 2-3 couples, or a family of 4. And its central location puts you a short walk from restaurants, shopping, and the movie theater.
