Beat the heat!

Great Ocean views from every room!

Marin Co Short Term Renal license P5212

The 13th of Summer is a romantic get-away or a comfy family holiday cottage on the Marin/Sonoma coast. Be awed-
Dramatic views of the Pacific Ocean, waves rushing up the shore. Grand sunsets from hug picture windows or even better from the deck with a glass of wine!

It's just a short five minute stroll to the beach.

When not watching sunsets or the sea, guests can enjoy the household surroundings. The cottage is filled with original paintings and sculpture by local artists. No need to work at a wood burning fire. An environmentally conscience gas burning stove is romantic for that fire-wood stove look, warmth and ambiance. The energy efficient gas heater keeps the cottage cozy.

Take a nap; watch the waves.! The westerly living room has an extra long down filled sofa, huge soft chair w/ ottoman and oak rocker. Lots of lamps make reading and close work enjoyable. The view is wonderful. The easterly sitting area is a cozy conversation or media area and has an overstuffed chair with ottoman and love seat.

An induction range and a refrigerator are in the kitchen. From the sink is a view of the front garden and from the stove, the sea. ATT phone service includes the continental USA is in the kitchen and master bedroom. Mircrowave, blender, food processor, Kenmore mixer, rice cooker, stick blender, toaster

New smart TV

The master bedroom has a queen size bed, blue leather wingback chair and oak dresser. Reading the paper, drinking coffee, and watching birds scamper along the shore make staying tucked in under the down comforter a morning pleasure.

The knotty pine bedroom has a queen bed and twin bed, antique oak dresser and upholster high-back chair. When standing by the windows, the bay and Bodega Head can be enjoyed. Beach chairs and blanket are in this closet

Upstairs and between the two bedrooms is a half-bath with sink and toilet.

Downstairs is the full bath with shower, toilet, sink,and, of course, a great view of the ocean.

The deck provides a great area to relax with teak chaise lounges, table and chair for taking in the view. A cozy and comfortable dining area with the grand Pacific Ocean before you makes inside dining a delight.

The comfy cottage at 13 Summer will reward you with romance and relaxation!

Check in is 4pm and check out is 11am. Note: there is pet fee of $50 for one large dog or two small dogs.

Parking is very limited in Dillon Beach. The cement drive-way along the south side of the house will accommodate one sedan or SUV. Non reserved parking is allowed across the street along the cement retaining wall. I ask that guests let me know ahead of time if they plan to plug in their electric..

Overnight guests are limited to 5 people.

Very cute beach cottage close to the sea

We really enjoyed our stay! Plenty of space for the 3 of us, great location, clean, wonderful gas fireplace for the chilly days, awesome view, great communication with host, comfortable beds, I could go on! My only hardship is that the backyard is not fully fenced in. Not a deal breaker but it would be nice to let the dogs off leash. Please note that the shower is a stall. Was a little hard due to my bad back, but doable! I would stay here again in a heartbeat. Thank you Cherry for opening your home to my family.

Recharge Retreat!

We had such a wonderful stay! The property is absolutely beautiful—spotlessly clean, well-maintained, and thoughtfully stocked with everything you could need, especially in the kitchen. The ocean views from both bedrooms were stunning and made each morning feel like a retreat. It was the perfect place to unwind and recharge after a busy and demanding school year. Highly recommend!

Perfection, with an ocean view!

My husband, our 2 adult children, and myself had the wonderful opportunity to stay at Cherry’s Dillon beach home. From the moment we stepped through the door, we were all thrilled with the place. The kitchen has everything you need to prepare your meals, the wood burning stove kept us toasty warm on the cooler days and the view from the balcony was amazing. And the beds are SO comfortable, we all slept so well. Cherry is fabulous to communicate with and was always so quick to respond to our text. I would highly recommend staying at this wonderful gem in Dillon beach and we can’t wait to return soon!

Another great visit to Cherry's warm and inviting house! It's the perfect house for sitting on the deck and reading in the sun, or going down to the beach for a long walk with the dog. Really appreciated all the kitchen supplies and the well-stocked dog towels! We can't wait to come back again.

Perfect Relaxation

We could not have asked for anything better. We needed some downtime after recovering from a cancer treatment and Cherry's home was quiet, comfortable, and charming. The location and view were just so good for the soul! Everything in the home was easy to find and use and the place was extremely well appointed. We'll be back! One thing to note: the yard is not fenced, so dogs need to be on leash to go potty.

We loved everything about the house! We felt at home the second we walked through the door. Super dog friendly house and a few minutes walk to the best dog beach we have been to. The views were amazing. The chocolates were amazing. It was the most well stocked house we have ever stayed in. We loved looking at the art and decorations around the house. We can’t wait to come back!

Cozy, Great View, Well stocked, Clean

Enjoyed our stay and Cherry is a great host. Only concern the wife and I had was the step down out of the bedrooms.If you had to use the bathroom at the top of the stairs and you forgot about that step, or it was dark, a person could trip. We left the bathroom light on as reminder about that step and left the French bedroom doors slightly open just to allow a little light as a reminder about that step. A suggestion would be to install a nightlight on the vertical wall of that step to alert people if they needed to get up in the middle of the night to use the bathroom. Wouldn't have to be that bright light and maybe even colored...blue..red etc. Overall, a nice little cozy cottage with spectacular views of the beach. At one time on our first morning we saw 16 surfers hitting the waves. Probably will come back although I wish 2 day stays were year-round. Wayne H.

Perfect Dillon beach getaway!

This house was absolutely perfect! My wife and I booked it for our honeymoon and brought our golden retriever Juniper. The place was immaculate and so spacious. The photos truly do not do the view justice. The view from the deck and living is absolutely insane, and we got to watch the sun set each night. The kitchen is perfectly stocked so we were able to making amazing meals every day, and Cherry the host was so nice and helpful throughout our stay. We will absolutely be staying again soon!

Cherry's house is so comfy and welcoming, and has such a great view of the ocean. We didn't even mind that the weather wasn't so great, we were more than happy to spend lots of time in the house. Lovely artwork everywhere you look, comfy beds, lots of kitchen equipment, the best location. PLUS handmade chocolates to welcome you!
