Our passion and focus remains true: to empower our homeowners, guests, and employees to invest in vacation.

Summary Wake to the cries of seabirds and watch fishing boats motor past from your waterfront perch. This intimate studio for two sits directly over Bodega Bay on weathered pilings — the water literally flows beneath you. Sip morning coffee on the narrow deck as harbor seals surface nearby. Just steps from Diekmann's Bay Store and The Boat House restaurant. An hour and a half from San Francisco, you'll find the coastal reset you've been craving. The space At Bayside Cottage, mornings begin watching fishing boats motor out as the harbor wakes, afternoons walking Doran Beach or hunting tide pools at Pinnacle Gulch, and evenings on the deck with fresh crab and a glass of cool-climate Pinot. The single room layers living, sleeping, and dining around the bay outside the windows. A leather sofa and armchair circle the gas fireplace; a four-poster queen bed anchors the far end, framed so the harbor is the first thing you see at sunrise. The kitchenette is set up for the morning kettle and reheats — there's no stovetop, so plan to walk to The Boat House or Spud Point for the rest. A drop-leaf table by the window seats two as boats motor past. OUTDOOR LIVING A narrow wooden walkway runs along the water side of the cottage, offering direct access to bay views. The weathered wood deck with railings becomes your perch for morning coffee or evening wine as the sunset paints the water in golds and pinks. SLEEPING ARRANGEMENTS The main room features a wooden four-poster queen bed with navy blue bedding, positioned to capture bay views right from your pillow. The cottage comfortably sleeps 2. PROPERTY AMENITIES -- Studio layout, 1 bathroom -- Gas fireplace -- Flat-screen cable TV -- WiFi (note: can be intermittent) -- Kitchenette with microwave, coffee maker, and dishwasher (no stovetop) -- Deck with bay views

The neighborhood Perched directly over Bodega Bay in the heart of this working fishing village, you're perfectly positioned to experience authentic coastal California. Stroll 0.1 miles to Diekmann's Bay Store for morning provisions or grab fresh crab sandwiches at the legendary Spud Point Crab Company (0.6 miles). The Boat House restaurant sits just 0.2 miles away for waterfront dining, while Gourmet Au Bay (0.2 miles) offers wine flights and wood-fired flatbreads. For a special dinner, book a table at acclaimed Terrapin Creek (0.5 miles). Nature lovers will appreciate Coastal Prairie Trail Access (0.6 miles) for bluff-top walks and Doran Regional Park (1.3 miles) for the area's most family-friendly beach. The famous Bodega Head whale-watching spot is 3 miles south. This is Hitchcock country — the town of Bodega with its Birds filming locations lies 5 miles inland. Getting around Bodega Bay is about 90 minutes from San Francisco — a beautiful drive up 101 and out Highway 1 through farmland and coastal ranches. A car makes exploring the Sonoma Coast effortless — it unfolds for miles in either direction. Cell service is light along the coast, so downloading offline maps before you arrive is a good idea. Other things to note The cottage's unique position over the water means you'll hear the rhythmic sounds of the bay throughout your stay — from gentle lapping waves to the occasional sea lion bark. Internet service can be intermittent in this coastal area, so we recommend not bringing time-sensitive work. The 55-step descent to the cottage entrance requires moderate mobility. While there's no air conditioning, the cottage stays naturally cool thanks to coastal breezes and fog. The kitchenette lacks a stovetop, but the microwave and local restaurants provide plenty of dining options. Cell service can be limited - embrace the chance to unplug. The cottage sits on pilings over the water, so you may notice slight movement during storms. Primary renter must be 21 or older.
