6/10 Okay

Liked: Cleanliness, communication, location, listing accuracy
Disliked: Check-in
Property was nice and clean for the most part. Could use a deep clean. Host requested a signed separate contract three days prior to move in. It was a word doc and therefore inconvenient. Additionally, he sent it after our refundable period had ended. If this is a requirement to rent the property it should be sent well before any refundable period. Overall, a pretty good stay but the management was clunky.

Host was welcoming. The views were excellent. We were comfortable in the great room w/ fireplace. As a group we felt that the house was a little dated, kitchen utensils needed an upgrade and the BBQ was dirty and we could not use it.

We spent 3 nights just before Christmas at The Grey Whale. It was lots of fun and very comfortable for our family gathering. It rained most of the time so we spent a lot of time indoors, playing games and using the huge kitchen to cook. It was perfect for our large family of 3 generations, lots of room to spread out and play. V very comfortable. We will return!

Beautiful views. Kitchen is very well stocked. The living room was large. Seating was comfortable and not too fussy that a family with young children would have to worry. There were a few minor issues. The bed in the master bedroom was a bit too tall for us. There is a stool to help you get in. The screen for the back slider is hard to open. There were a lot of rules in the rental agreement. It was a little intimidating but turned out to be fine.

Great family reunion

Grey Whale was a great space for our family reunion of nine adults. We loved having the pool table and the ping pong table. The kitchen was well equipped. The living room coffee table was large enough for us to work on jigsaw puzzles and we had views too! Don was very responsive and had great check-in instructions and house book.

Excellent property for a family stay!

My family of 10 and I had a wonderful weeks vacation in this beautifully located rental. Quiet cul de sac, great for the kids riding bikes. Close access to walking trails with beautiful views. Everyone enjoyed playing ping pong and pool! Kayaking is only a few minutes away, which was the highlight of our vacation. Our family would definitely come back to this property. The owner was very accessible to our needs.

Perfect Family Reunion

The house is perfectly located for exploring the Bodega Bay area. The open layout of the dining, kitchen and living room area was very comfortable and functional for our group of 7 adults to hang out in. Being within walking distance of the beach from several approaches (via the south end of Doran beach and Pinnacle Gulch trails) was extra wonderful. Thank you for helping to make our family reunion a memorable event. 3

Great property with a peaceful view. Nice lay out with plenty of room. Garage with pool table and ping pong made time for fun. The only recommendations is to provide storage bags and additional towels. And to let renters know there is construction across the way.

Great stay!

Love the bright, open areas and huge kitchen! My favorite spot was the 2 lounger chairs and ottomans in front of the windows! The bedrooms and beds were comfortable. The downstairs felt a little damp (maybe benefit from damp-rid?) and the towels were rough to touch. Otherwise, we would stay again!

Beautiful weekend in Bodega Bay

The home has many windows with great views and decks to enjoy. The kitchen views are great. There are a few minor maintenance issues that could be addressed to improve the kitchen. The home accommodated our group of 10 adults and one baby easily.

Perfect getaway

We loved our stay at the Grey Whale! The home is so peaceful, up on the hill over the ocean with amazing sunset views. The living room is so open and light, our group of 8 was very comfortable. The kitchen was very well equipped and spacious. Everything was clean, easy to use and well maintained. The hot tub was lovely and the ping pong table and billiards in the garage was lots of fun. Communication with the owner was easy and prompt. We'd love to come back.

The Gray Whale was clean and welcoming. Vista was perfect view of Bodega Head.Kitchen was spacious with 2 sinks. Not having used a 'vacation home ' before, I really didn't know what to expect. 7 guestsneeds more than: 1 paper towel roll, 1 small cube of tissues, napkins, coffee -2 tbsp & 4 tea bags, wash cloths (only 4) in rolled towels, sharpened knives, scissors. Ignore if these items are not normally provided.
