An amazing cottage in a beautiful beach town

Dillion beach is a hidden gem and pet friendly beach town to visit. This past visit marks our third stay at this amazing cottage. A perfect place with a beautiful view from its deck. Dennis is our point of contact and always

Perfect Long Weekend

We really had a nice stay at Dennis and Dan’s Surf Shack. It was easy to just drop in, with our two little dogs, and everything we could need was provided for. Great views, quiet even with the weekend activity at Dillon Beach. Our dog Frodo loves being off leash and the walk down to the confluence with Tomales Bay perfect for us. Dennis was a welcoming and responsive host. Really a lovely spot. Thank you!

A piece of paradise.....

The best beach trip we've in our life. The cottage was super cool, from the front yard to the deck with an epic view. It literally had everything you would need for a special get away. The host's Dennis & Dan are awesome. Thank you for a trip we will always remember! K & J

A true gem!

This adorable home was exactly what my husband and I needed to get-away, decompress from life, and enjoy our anniversary. We have stayed at Dillon beach many times but this is by far our favorite home. Location is pristine. The kitchen had everything we needed and more. The balcony was delightful to sit on to enjoy the cool, crisp air and the views. We will definitely be back! Thank you to the devoted hosts of this property for allowing us to stay here.

Perfect Location

The property is clean and has all of the amenities you can ask for. We originally booked the property because it was pet friendly and has a king sized bed. The bed is very comfortable. The best part of the property is the location. You are in walking distance to the beach, restaurant, and general store. We will not hesitate to book again.

Perfect getaway for two

Location whew at, property clean and well stocked. Super sweet to walk into a bottle of wine & snacks for both us and our dog. Honestly our only complaint would be that the deck is in need of some love and it would be awesome if it was plexiglassed for the view!

The Surf Cottage was WONDERFUL!

My husband and I and our 2 dogs loved it and would stay here again in a heartbeat! Dennis, the owner met us out front as we were unloading and was very pleasant. Upon entering, we were welcomed with a personalized, hand-written note, a bottle of wine chilling in the ice bucket, and snacks for us AND the dogs. Nice touch! The cottage had a fun surfer/coastal vibe and was very comfy. Kitchen is fully appointed with a large fridge, stove, microwave, coffee maker, waffle maker, full sets of dishes/cutlery/glassware/cooking utensils/pots & pans, as well as a nice array of seasonings/condiments for cooking. The front of the house has a sunny sitting area perfect for breakfast & coffee. The back deck has a wonderful view of the water and comfy chairs for relaxing or enjoying dinner and some wine. The whole yard is fenced, which allowed the dogs to move freely between the front and back of the cottage and visit with passersby. The Dog-Friendly beach (yay!) was easily accessible and about a 3–4 minute walk away. Our pups were living their best doggie lives there! All in all, it was a great stay, and we can't wait to come back.

Been coming here my whole life....best rental ever!

My boyfriend , myself and our two dogs came to stay for a couple of days for some much needed R and R.The house was perfect for our needs(including a birthday banner and birthday card for my boyfriend). The owners think of everything you might need and then some. Restful, peaceful and a great comfy bed. Looking forward to staying there again(maybe in December for my birthday).Thanks again Dennis for understanding about the date changes.

Great location and comfortable home!

We had a great time at Dennis and Dan’s place! The house is well stocked with everything you could need. They went above and beyond by providing all sorts of little treats for humans and our dog! The bed was comfortable…we got great sleep in the quiet neighborhood. The view was spectacular and the 2 minute walk to the dog friendly beach was the best! We couldn’t have had a nicer time and look forward to making this regular our quick getaway!

Delightful

It was the perfect little cottage for our beach getaway. The hosts were so thoughtful - they left treats for us and our dog. The cottage had everything we needed and was very comfortable. It is right next to a great mercantile with coffee and soft serve! And it was a quick stroll to the beach (which is a great beach for dogs!).

Everything about this place was perfect and exactly what I needed. I was looking for a peaceful place for a personal retreat and it was just that. A two minute walk to the beach, store and restaurant. Beautiful sunsets. The house was so cute and comfortable. I didn't want to leave and I hope to be back many times in the future.

Dillon Beach Getaway

This property is great. Although it's pet friendly, I felt it was very clean and no residual pet hair that you find in many places. The location is central, with easy walk to the local store, restaurant and beach. Since it's higher than the local "resort", you have a nice view of the ocean from the living room and deck. It's well equipped for kitchen use. I highly recommend it, feel it's well priced and would return.

Wonderful refuge

When I drove up, one of the hosts just happened to be there. He gave me a warm welcome and let me be on my own. The house was the perfect size, perfectly decorated and perfectly equipped. These hosts have thought of everything a guest might need. The view of the bay was beautiful. The Village of Dillon Beach is very compact and easy to maneuver. The rest of my family group ( all 10 of them) rented a large house way up at the top of the hill. The drive to and from there was spectacular. But I very much appreciated my own space at the end of each day. Thank you to my hosts! One thing, I noticed and bragged about the bowl of dog treats on the counter when I arrived ( I didn’t bring a pet). When I returned from up the hill, the treats were gone, bowl empty. 🤔 very curious…….
