Great House for Extended Family Gatherings
We loved staying here! The house was conveniently located and easily accessed. Ocean View Park next to the house was a big plus for our 9 year old granddaughter. There was enough space for 7 family members to spread out downstairs in the living room, music room, dining room, kitchen, and morning room, where our granddaughter slept. We would definitely recommend this property!

Perfect House
This house was the perfect place for our family to gather, dress for the wedding, relax, unwind and sleep after multiple days of activities at nearby the OVY campgrounds. It was roomy and thoughtfully stocked with books for all interests including for the little one, not to mention the playground next door. The separate area for reading or quiet chatting away from the TV room was very appreciated, plus the beautifully landscaped backyard and sauna. We were so grateful and thrilled with this venue.

Husband's birthday trip
The home is very nice size, and has all the necessary items for a comfortable stay. The back yard is very large and very nicely landscaped. It was so relaxing to sit and look out at. The home is walkable to the beach, which was so fun to do with our family and dogs. So many shells were collected. We sincerely appreciate the owners allowing us to bring our three elderly dogs. It was very comforting to have them with us and enjoy a time away in a beautiful setting!

Romantic and cozy
The place had all the amenities and the sauna was a bonus! We played two days of golf at Halfmoon bay and rested at home relaxing in the sauna, played music and just enjoyed the house. Thx. Only downfall was a response from the owner and reply time was bit slow. Otherwise it was perfect getaway.

Home away from home
As the title says this very much felt like a home away from home - we were delighted to be able to enjoy it with our own family. There is a playground d next door which you can see from the back garden. Some reviews commented that perhaps there should be some screening. As long as you know it’s there I disagree. It’s a perfect spot for parents and grandparents to keep their eye on grandchildren playing in the park!
Keith, thanks so much for all your help with booking! We d love to return!

Thank you so much!
Really appreciated our stay in your home. This was a poignant time for our family and friends to honor and celebrate our mom's life. And especially to highlight my mom's community in Half Moon Bay.
This home did not disappoint and was a very welcoming place to return to each evening as we came "home" from my mom's funeral and then doing the work to move out of her home over on Myrtle.
Thank you and hope to stay again.

Beautiful Home in a Great Location
The house is more spacious than what the pictures on VRBO reveal. Also, the home is conveniently located near many amenities (e.g., the playground is right next door and the beach is only a couple of blocks.)
This rental is ideal for families and family gatherings. The owners were kind enough to let me host my mom's 70th birthday dinner party at their place, which were so appreciative for. Thank you, Keith!

Walking distance to beach & downtown
This spacious property was perfect for 3 couples. We enjoyed the well stocked kitchen, big dining room & lovely yard. Having 3 1/2 bathrooms was a big plus.
We walked to town or the beach at least once each day. This house truly is in an ideal location.

Great Location
House is a 5min walk to the bluffs on the coast and walkable distance to the heart of Half moon bay. Kitchen was well stocked. The backyard is super cute. We really appreciated having 3.5 bathrooms.
The house is truly RIGHT next to the park. I think the house could benefit from some additional privacy hedges, but it's no big deal

Everything about this home away from home was beautiful-flowers (some real some not) were everywhere; decor was nice but relaxing. The outside seating area was gorgeous. The kitchen was well stocked for basic cooking. The walk to the beach was easy. Loved our stay!
