Cottage holiday rentals in Big Sur

My second stay with Dian and Jay. They are great hosts and have a beautiful property.

What a beautiful and relaxing short stay we had at Sea Otter Cottage! From soaking in the soothing hot tub to playing in the charming garden, every moment was delightful. Our 5-year-old loved exploring the lovely surroundings, the toys in the house and we truly felt at home in this cozy, welcoming house. Thank you so much for sharing your wonderful space with us—we will cherish the memories made here and hope to return at some point!

Annie was a great host and the place was exactly as described and just what we needed for a relaxing beach getaway. We loved the hot tub in the backyard and the beach cottage feel of the place. Thank you for hosting us!

The place is beautiful, with a view of the vineyards and lots of trees. The house has everything you need, and it is clean and organized. It is easy to get into the house. I highly recommend it!

Booked last minute- was very pleasantly surprised! Even better than photos! Location was easy to find (drive in late at night) very easy to check in. Very walkable to everything- beach was a few blocks! Great location to get to the middle of town in no time at all. The private patio space with the hot tub was so amazing after a beach day. I will for sure be booking this place again! Also Liza was super helpful and easy to reach if I had any questions. Book here - it’ll exceed expectations!

This was our second stay here. Our daughter's family lives in the neighborhood and this is the perfect location for us to stay while visiting. It is quiet, comfortable and just what we need. The yard is very cute and we love to look at the animals with our grandchildren. We lucked out and saw the planets aligned from the driveway on the 25th, as it is dark enough to view the stars without city lights. Don and Lori are great hosts- there are treats and fresh eggs in the fridge, and everything we needed was right there. We will be back.

A wonderful place to stay in Cambria. The house was in excellent shape with 3 bedrooms. Could not have asked for anything more.

Ellen's place is a very nice quiet place to stay and enjoy a cozy day/night. The views outside are great and there are a lot of places to just relax on a cold day. the only inconvenience is the area around the property. To get there can be tricky, especially at night, and when it's rainy. And parking, especially with a large car is very hard especially if you have to reverse your way out, or reverse in, especially with the steep driveway. Other than that the property was perfect, and everything felt right, Ellen is a very nice host.

Nice spot with a lot to do around it, super friendly people everywhere. House was nice and clean and it’s in a quiet neighborhood besides the airport.

Location walking distance to the beach, right across Hwy 1, was great, and short drive into Morro. Sylvia was quick with communication. Her house had everything we needed. Had some run ins with ants in the kitchen but nothing major. Just couldn’t leave food out on the counters overnight.

Great spot for exploring Morro Bay and the surrounding area! We stayed here while on a road trip up the coast and loved it! Very quiet neighborhood with quick access to the 1; minutes away by car from the Embarcadero and <25 minutes from SLO or Hearst Castle. Cozy place with a great rooftop. King bed was great. 2 bathrooms a plus.

We stayed at Chris’s place for 2 nights and it was amazing. Such a peaceful and charming place, my fiancé and I love it! The views out the back porch were so beautiful. Chris was very responsive and catered to our needs! An easy 5 stars!!

We loved our stay at this cozy little cottage. The kitchen was beautiful, the beds were comfortable, and the deck was a perfect place to drink your coffee in the morning! Aaron was super responsive and went above and beyond to accommodate us for our specific situation. We would recommend this place in a heartbeat ❤️

Another great stay, thanks Jennifer.

Janet’s place was better than the photos. It was so peaceful and such beautiful surroundings. We love the sounds of the numerous birds on the property. My husband and I, my teenagers and pups were all very comfortable and enjoyed our stay. We had everything we needed to cook and feel at home. Janet was very responsive when I had questions. Great spot!

Another lovely stay at Sabine’s unit. I love the kitchen and being able to resume my routines in that space. Likewise, for sleeping. I sleep well there. It is very quiet at night. The air is fresh. The neighborhood is quiet and safe. It is a family neighborhood with children everywhere! Very safe! I sleep with windows open every night. It is very restful and very quiet. There is no trouble and the community is friendly.

I enjoyed the location and the peace and quiet. Would recommend tp a friend. Very charming and loved the patio area and the view

We LOVED our stay in the Calla Lilly cottage. The property is beautiful and quiet, and my partner and I enjoyed a restful weekend together. There's a short uphill walk to a gorgeous sitting place. We felt deep in forest while only being a couple miles from the highway. The place is also nearby many beautiful beaches and Carmel. Sofanya was very helpful and welcoming, and her property is instilled with her wonderful energy and charm! Our only discomfort was waiting for the place to heat up when the radiator and fire has been out. We would definitely come again and will recommend this place for others!

This was such a beautiful home in a beautiful location. Relaxing, close to restaurants but with a gorgeous kitchen to cook in also. Cannot wait for an opening to be able to stay again!!

Gloria and Greg's cottage in San Miguel was a very comfortable and welcoming place to stay on the Central Coast. It was well appointed, and the amenities included were appreciated. Having the Bison to visit was a bonus. We would definitely recommend their place to anyone looking for a place to stay in the Paso Robles area.

En provided very helpful instructions to unlock and lock the gate. The cottage was private and a good size for two people. Having parking available in the driveway was appreciated!

I couldn't have been more pleased with my stay, and interfacing with Tom. The place was clean, tranquil, and well appointed. Tom was responsive, flexible, and kind. To top it off, their two chickens were the quietest, cutest little beings to be adjacent to and were welcome companions on the property. It was such an oasis, comfortable bed, great desk, and could hear the creek just below the window. Will definitely return.

Everything was much nicer than expected with lots of extras, great beds and nice bedding. 3 Smart TV’s. Extras for cooking everything you would need. I would definitely recommend and stay here again. Walking to town is a couple blocks away. Susie was a great host and quick to respond.

Very quiet cottage, safe, tranquil, exceedingly well equipped. I would stay here again!
