Excellent Property with AMAZING Views
Review Submitted: July 15, 2009
Date of Stay: July 2009
We have just returned from a one week stay at Seaside Escape, in Bodega Bay, CA. This is probably a 4.5 star and maybe some would consider it a 5-star rated property. As you can see from the photos, the home is unique and takes advantage of the amazing views. As noted previously, light bulbs were an issue and not easily resolved, since the house has a variety of lighting options and just as many bulb variations. A hardware store stop in Sebastopol allowed us to partially resolve the burned-out light bulb issues, though some replacement bulbs were not readily available. The quality of the linens and towels were acceptable, but I would suggest bring your own pillows if you are picky about such things (I am). The weather was perfect for our entire stay, so to better enjoy those amazing views, we (sort of) washed the windows in the living room. We had noticed the sponge/squeegee in the garage. While the squeegee was past it's prime, the sponge portion worked beautifully. The windows seemed to be treated with a long-lasting cleaning agent, because a rinse of the hose, a swipe of the sponge, followed by a final rinse, resulted in a week-long, clean window view. Since the views are a significant feature of this property, I would suggest a regular window washing service, if one is not already being used. I know living near the ocean with the sea spray & fog clean windows may be nearly impossible.
We have rented a number of vacation rentals over the years, and this, by far, is one of the very best. While there were a very few minor issues, they were just that, minor. For the most part, this home is clean, comfortable, wonderfully designed and absolutely a pleasure to relax in. Did I mention the AMAZING VIEWS? We will return often.
