Feels Like Home

The decor is cohesive and attractive, the kitchen is well stocked (though bring your own coffee and other basic cooking supplies if you plan on cooking), the vibe is easy-breezy-homey-comfy. I love the houses in the old village part of Dillon, close to a wonderful general store and coffee bar, close to the beach for those long walks... so I give this location an A, even as there's only a tiny bit of ocean view. Bathrooms and primary bedroom suites are just perfect. Everything super clean and tidy, instructions and communication clear.

Great place

We stayed there for a week and loved the light common area, well stocked kitchen and outdoor warm shower. We had our dog and walked to the beach twice a day. The beds were comfortable and we loved all the books, WiFi and blankets.

Excellent Beach House

Clean. Well maintained and supplied. Close to beach (hilly - be ready to hike a little), small restaurant and small store (make sure to check their hours). Can get busy at the beach on the weekend, but plenty of room. Park at the house, not down at the beach. A great stay!

This is a lovely property - comfy, cosy and no mold! - a real plus when staying so close to the coast. Would definitely recommend it. If you plan to cook bring all your own oils and spices, etc. (which we did) as there was not much there.

About the host

Host profile image
MY HUSBAND LOVES FISHING AND HIKING AND WE ALL LOVE LONG WALKS ON THE BEACH - FOG OR SUN! DILLON BEACH IS WONDERFUL BECAUSE, ONLY AND HOUR FROM SAN FRANCISCO IT FEELS AS THOUGH YOU ARE IN THE MIDDLE OF NOWHERE...IT REMINDS US OF NEW ZEALAND.....AND YET THERE IS SO MUCH TO DO...PERFECT! WE HAVE RECENTLY SETTLED ON A NEARBY RANCH SO NO LONGER STAY AT CAMP DAVID. THIS IS THE VERY FIRST TIME WE HAVE LISTED IT FOR RENT.

Why they chose this property

WE FIRST CAME TO DILLON BEACH AT A FRIEND'S INVITATION. WE ESPECIALLY LIKED THE OLD VILLAGE AND WERE LUCKY ENOUGH TO FIND THIS LOT AND WERE ABLE TO BUILD CAMP DAVID. WE RETURNED EACH WEEKEND AND SOMETIMES FOR HOLIDAYS.

What makes this property unique

WHAT I LOVE BEST ABOUT THE HOME ITS THAT IT ALLOWS ME TO REST: READING A BOOK ON THE SOFA WARMED BY THE SUN, IT IS ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE NOT TO FALL ASLEEP.....ALL THE STRESS IS GONE. WE HAVE LOVED ENTERTAINING HERE AND NOW OUR GRANDCHILDREN HAVE FALLEN IN LOVE WITH DILLON BEACH.
