We enjoyed seeing the cows on the side of the fence at the back. There were also a couple of cats to entertain us too! Thanks for a lovely house!!! ##### Laurie C. Stayed 4 nights in Jan 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Barbara T. Mar 3, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Life Saver We had 12 family members visiting and due to the weather we were not able to accommodate some in our home or RV. We had to quickly scramble to find other accommodations and were pleasantly surprised to locate the perfect home in our own neighborhood. The home was clean and roomy and was a perfect solution to our problem. The whole process was easy and we would absolutely rent the same home, or another through Bodega Bay Escapes again. They were very helpful and accommodating! ##### Barbara T.
