(Previous Guest Comments about the Wine Down Cottage by the Sea)


“This home has been upgraded and maintained in the manner I would maintain my own home. It was immaculately appointed.”

“Very classy place! We wouldn't hesitate to stay here again.”

“The jacuzzi was awesome for warming up after an afternoon of tide pooling. We will definitely stay here again.”

“The house is scrupulously clean, furnished with comfortable and whimsical decor, and stocked with every conceivable convenience. We've rented many vacation homes with vrbo but have never enjoyed one more than this one.”

“We loved this home and it was perfect for our trip. The house was really comfortable for four people; we especially enjoyed cooking dinner in the immaculate kitchen. And our dog loved chasing after a tennis ball in the large side-yard!”

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay up at the Wine Down Cottage By the Sea! We loved the location with being close to town and the beach. The cottage was also great for our dogs with space for them to play and explore. I also enjoyed sitting out on the patio or around the fire pit in the afternoons (we didn't use the fire pit though!). All communication with Diane was easy, and she was also quick to respond to any questions we had. We are definitely planning on returning in the future!

Wine Down Cottage was the perfect place for a weekend getaway in Cambria. From the moment we walked into the cottage, we felt relaxed and at home. The cottage was clean and had beautiful touches throughout, and the fenced in backyard was perfect for our little dogs. The location was perfect---minutes to downtown, restaurants and the beach. It's walking distance to the Cambria Pines Lodge where you can walk for dinner, the spa or evening entertainment. Diane was easy to communicate with throughout and checked in to make sure we were enjoying our stay. This cottage is perfect for a couple or family getaway and we will definitely be coming back.
