The Bonny Cottage By The Sea

We love Bonny Cottage. It's perfect for vacationing with our dog and it helps it's one story. The yard was gorgeous and in full bloom, the gardener is so sweet, we got to meet her. They have night lights and a surge protector. All the kitchen utensils, pots and pans you can need. Also ladies, a hair dryer, save you some packing room. View of the sunset from the deck was amazing.

My daughter and I loved staying in the cottage with our dog Charlie. It was everything we hoped for and more - the place, the location, the property, the convenience, the view. It was cozy and inviting and felt like we were in a Hallmark movie. The fireplace and candles and antiques and amenities - all the little details were thee to make our stay happy. We immediately booked again for a summer vacation in July.

A nice small cottage at the top of Happy Hill. For two people and no pets, the cottage was of adequate size for a six day stay. Property was clean upon arrival. The decking and outside furniture has been updated since the photos on the website, and is a very nice addition. Wonderful views off the decks, and the neighborhood is very quiet and peaceful. The kitchen is well stocked with utensils, cookware, etc. There is a both a charcoal and propane grill available - however, the propane tank was empty. So we wound up using the charcoal grill, as there was charcoal and lighter fluid available. One annoyance - several light fixtures that had multiple bulbs had one or two burnt out bulbs. We couldn't find any bulbs in the house, so left a note for the property manager. Overall - a pleasant stay for our Thanksgiving.

The cottage was accurately described clean and well maintained. Excellent customer service as well as booklet inside cottage filled with info on the place as well as surrounding communities. I would absolutely recommnend this cottage.Happy with the town the food was always good. The Scarecrow Festival was so much fun! Always a beautiful town!

Our second stay at this house since July 2019, much has been cleaned up and was much nicer. New patio furniture was Greatly appreciated. Still really needs new flooring. Love the gardens and neighborhood. Warm, comfortable, easy to relax there the entire time.

Well, we truly enjoy staying in the Bonnie Cottage, best yet is that it is just steps away from family on Happy Hill.....also truly love the decks and patio views of the ocean. At night one can actually hear waves crashing down on Moonstone Beach Rd....all will love this tranquil place to stay and Cambria to walk and enjoy all it has to offer....

Our favorite house. Have been staying there for over 10 years.

My husband and I enjoyed the stay at the cottage. The property manager was very helpful, supplying an extra key when we were locked out. They gave us a goodie bag with helpful info and map about services and attractions in the area. They even provided a list of trails friendly to dogs since we brought our pup. The fenced yard was great for the dog. The kitchen was well stocked with pots, pans, dishes, cups and utensils. The beds were very comfortable. It was decorated for the holiday which made it very homey. Loved the gas fireplace and candles. Since we visited over a very wet Christmas week the deck and patios were not used. But would love to return when weather is better and enjoy the view of the ocean from the deck.

We loved this darling cottage so much and are still talking about how much we loved staying there! We did not want to leave it was so cozy and comfortable and located in Cambria that has so much to offer! Beautiful beaches, parks and some of the best restaurants not to mention great shopping. We will for sure be back! We loved the fireplace and watching the beautiful sunsets in the evenings. We even saw a porcupine in the meadow out the window when we were eating breakfast. Our stay was magical!!!

Unfortunately the place has a severe mold issue along with fleas. So I can't recommend it at this time until this issues get resolved.

Manager's Response

Cambria location is quiet and a great hub for the SLO area. Rental was very nice. Well equipped. Comfortable, Patio areas were perfect for breakfast in the morning and a glass of wine in the evening.

This is the only place we ever stayed in Cambria. It's a period cabin with lovely patios and decks. The home was all you need. It's not new and modern. It's older but clean. The carpet it's light and as you can imagine has a few stains near the kitchen area. For us it's a second home and where I was married 23 years ago. When you sit on the deck and watch the sun rise or set you'll understand the beauty of Bonnie's House.

Recently returned to our go to our favorite getaway place, and rented a cottage where we could relax with our dog. The patio under the a huge oak was just the place to barbecue, eat, relax, and play games. Everything we needed was easily available, with comfortable beds, a warm shower, and a location near everything.

My family has stayed at this location for over 10 years (once or twice each year) and every year more items are updated (furniture, internet, digital TV, kitchen amenities, etc.). Close to the top of Happy Hill and within easy walking distance to west end of Cambria and to Moonstone Beach. The office staff are professional, friendly and very knowledgeable of all their properties.

All around wonderful place. Very clean. Decorated nicely. A comfortable, relaxing experience. Nice garden with many places to sit and enjoy the flowers and greenery. I would definitely stay here again. And the management company was a pleasure to work with. Hearst Castle is a must. And shopping in town is a fun experience. The employee's at Linn's Restaurant are the nicest, friendliest people ever!

Previously we have rented other homes in Cambria all more expensive than the Bonny Cottage but none of them quite hit the mark for us. This home was a wonderful surprise. At first glance, the cottage exterior shows its age. However if you look past that you realize that it is a great little property. The outside grounds on the back side are lovely. The tree and plantings offered a serene and cool spot to relax in the late afternoon over a cocktail.On the front side of the cottage is a deck with a very good view of the ocean and sunsets. We enjoyed both options. A small suggestion: the outdoor furniture could be improved for comfort and visual appeal. The cottage feels very private.The neighborhood is attractive and was very quiet during our stay.

The owner deserves a lot of credit for the improvements made to the interior. Considering the age of this home, a complete makeover inside is evident. From the flooring, paint, furniture, kitchen, bath,, bedrooms (great bed), window coverings, gas fireplace, flat screen TV - everything was in excellent condition. It couldn't have been more comfortable and functional. The flameless candles provided a nice touch. Although not especially large, the cottage's coziness was just right. All the natural light and abundance of windows that open for fresh air was appreciated. The pictures give that homey feeling and history that almost make you believe you're part of the family.

The location was perfect. We always enjoy walking the nearby trails at Fiscalini Ranch; and walking the boardwalk at Moonstone Beach never gets old. We intended to eat out one evening but the cottage was so inviting, we cooked and dined in instead. During our stay we toured the backroads of Paso Robles for wine tasting. We recommend Whalebone winery and Michael Gill. We also visited the country Linn Farms buying pies and preserves.

The Bonny Cottage will be our choice for any return trip. Thanks for sharing your home and being d

Sweet, comfortable cottage with a fenced yard for our pups!

An older, very cozy home with a beautiful garden and view that made you feel secluded (even with close by neighbors) was the perfect getaway. No more than a 5 minute drive to the beach or town (and certainly within walking distance if you don't mind the hilly area), overall great location. Definitely recommended this house to our family and will be staying again! We also highly recommend trying Linn's Bakery for breakfast!

The staff I spoke with regarding questions about the property were great and were very helpful with bringing over a hair dryer when the listing didn't have one.

Stayed with our daughter and son-in-law over Thanksgiving. The kitchen had everything we needed for a full menu. Kids pronounced the house cozy and comfortable. Great view of the ocean. Lots of wildlife visited us. Thanks for being pet friendly.

SWEET COZY COTTAGE ALL ON 1 LEVEL. 3 DIFFERENT DECKS TO SIP WINE, ENJOY A CUP OF COFFEE OR JUST VIEW THE OCEAN.
ONLY COMPLAIT WOULD BE A FAINT MUSTY SMELL AND A FEW COBWEBS IN THE CORNERS. OTHERWISE A PERFECT VACATION.

The log cabin met all our needs and was cozy and comfortable.

The home is immaculate with the TV, internet upgraded and the kitchen well supplied with all the necessary, pots, pans, containers, even spices and lots of teas and coffees to choose from. Happy Hill is one of the best locations in Cambria--little or no traffic, short distance so you can walk to downtown. Very comfortable beds, large front porch and fenced backyard.

Great cabin and yard for a dog. Clean and a great location

Historic cabin site with lots of potential, large property, circular driveway, 3 patio's quite and peaceful. Lots of birds and deer. Nice view of the ocean from 2 of the patio's and driveway. Kitchen on a slant, curtains in kitchen, dinning and living room are old. Front patio area the wood bends and felt like it would break. Heater worked well, wished we could have stayed longer but had to get back to work.

Beautiful cabin with all the amenities. Lots of wildlife to enjoy such as wild turkeys, quail, squirrels, blue jays, and finches. My wife and I enjoyed are three week stay very much!!!

Relaxing, beautiful, scenic setting. We were very pleased with our stay.

PERFECT LITTLE LOG CABIN IN GREAT LOCATION. SET A LITTLE BACK FROM THE ROAD FOR PRIVACY. SINGLE LEVEL SO EASY ON THE KNEES. WONDERFUL VIEWS FROM BOTH FRONT AND BACK DECKS. HUGE OAK TREE OVER THE BACK DECK TO RELAX AND ENJOY A GLASS OF LOCAL WINE. VERY, VERY CLEAN AND EVEN NICER THAN THE PICS. HAVE STAYED 2 YEARS AND WILL STAY AGAIN NEXT YEAR.

My son and I (sometime accompanied by our Golden Retriever) have stayed at this property over the past 12 years and each time we visit there are some updates by the owners to make the home more inviting. A complete kitchen with all utensils, gas stove and microwave, wi-fi and cable TV, two relaxing patio areas, and within walking distance of downtown, parks and beaches. Very well maintained and the management is outstanding in providing any needed information or assistance.

The property is in need of repair. The backyard wood patios need maintenance. The shower needs to be updated and fixed as well. The only redeeming quality is that we now appreciate staying in Marine Terrace much more...

relaxing, wonderful air qualty and lovely ocean view...walking distance to most things.
