Great home, with an awesome layout. The kitchen area and backyard were our favorite areas of the house. New appliances and a cozy beach house make this a great place to stay

Cute Cottage!
A slightly dated, but comfortable home with a great front deck with fire pit, and a nice backyard with deck and large gas grill. Two TVs have Direct TV and Netflix. One listing says it has three bedrooms, but there are only two. Nice location about half a block from beautiful waterfront park. We had a very enjoyable stay.

An amazing place!
The house is adorable, the front porch and backyard are great, there's a garage with a little desk that was perfect for working during the stay. It's half a block away from the beach and half a block away from food. Ben was super accommodating and responsive.

Cute house with some needed upgrades
Cute home in wonderful location. Clean and very well stocked. Terrific yard for the dog. Walking distance to the water/bluff and a small park. We were winter guests, so some things came into play that wouldn't be issues in warm weather: The house could use a setback thermostat for the single vent furnace. This won't cure the need to sleep with bedroom doors open (no heater vents in bedrooms), but will make setting the temp easier. The overhead lighting doesn't light the sink, the bar or other work areas of the kitchen. It's a 1950's house, so the current lighting is understandable--would be nice to have updated. These two concerns are the most relevant. Ben was amazingly responsive to a couple other small issues that arose. A great stay for us.

Shell Beach Charm
Ben's place rocks! A comfortable cottage in an incredible location. Beautiful seaside views and entry down to the beach are less than a block away. Enjoy the fire pit on the front deck on chilly evenings. The back deck and spacious yard are great to soak up the afternoon sun. Ben was attentive and quick to respond to any questions. Well done!

Lovely home
We spent two months here this summer for the second year in a row. The accommodations were excellent as usual. Plenty of towels and linens and the kitchen is well stocked with appliances and cooking implements. We kept the French doors open all the time in both the front and rear of the home to enjoy the cross breeze. We spent every day out on the front deck enjoying the marvelous Shell Beach weather, and enjoyed the fire pit in the evenings. Ben is a responsive host and any issues were quickly resolved - during our stay, two sprinkler valves malfunctioned but were repaired immediately that morning. The location cannot be beat. Walkable to the Shell Beach eateries and just a few houses up from a small beach. We walked daily in the neighborhood and along the water. I highly recommend a stay here and will rebook again if we decide on the central coast next year.

Great location!
Very comfortable, nicely decorated cottage. Comfy beds. Doggies loved the backyard. Walking out to the street each morning to see the ocean was a treat and getting down to the beach took just a few minutes. We’d return for sure.

Cozy with Spectacular Location
This was my first VRBO experience and it did not disappoint!! The house was decorated with orange accents for Halloween & I immediately felt at home. My visit included Thanksgiving too. I was able to cook up a feast with the well stocked kitchen. My daily walks to the bluff, beach, and throughout the neighborhood were the highlight of my stay! Incredible views, kayaking tour with the local paddle shop, yoga at the Harmony House, butterflies at the monarch reserve, and walks on the Pismo Pier were other activities that kept me happy. It's was a great house for me and spacious enough for my kids & couple of friends to come visit. I hope my travels take me back to Shell Beach! I will defiantly try to stay at King's Cottage again!!
