Cozy Beach Cottage in Salmon Creek, White-water Ocean Views

I take my son to Bodega Bay for Coyote Camp every summer for two weeks. This is the second time that I have stayed in Salmon Creek and I must tell you, that Hattie's Cottage is the place to rent! The sweeping view of the ocean is amazing and we were blessed with more days of sun then I can ever remember. This made the Cottage even more desirable as the sunsets, viewed from the cozy living room, jacuzzi or one of the lovely sitting areas outside were spectacular. The house is well stocked and from the time you enter it, you feel like "this is home". The large fenced-in yard made it nice for me to just let my Maltese outside to roam and I totally enjoyed sitting out there with the scents of lavender and rosemary. The "crows nest" bedroom upstairs is a delight and as a quilter I enjoyed the nice touches of the quilts around the cottage as well as no maintenance fire place. As nice as a real fire is, it gets old dragging the wood in and the ashes out, and Bodega is cold, even in the summer so the no mess no fuss was nice. I like going up to this area to get "unplugged" and so I appreciate the no cell service, but for those who still need contact with the outside world the cottage provides all the amenities, WiFi, Cable, washer and dryer and even a phone that you can call long distance if need be. The owners were super easy to work with, easy to contact and provide excellent directions for the use of the items in the home as well as nice books on local places to visit. Hattie's Cottage provides the benefit of being "on the hill" in Salmon Creek, giving you views not possible from the lower streets, while still being a super short walk to the beach, a benefit that my 7 year old and I both liked (me the view, him the short walk!) I live in the San Diego area near the beach and Salmon Creek is my "get away spot" and I can say without a doubt that you will not be disappointed by this location. Well-maintained, very clean, very private, Hattie's Cottage is easily a "home away from home". For extra R and R I recommended a visit to the Osmosis Spa, a unique, wonderful experience, a trip up to Duncan Mills and Dinner at The River in Jenner.
