Park Hill Cottage- #PH35

The home was nice and in a good location. It was clean, and the beds were cozy. We enjoyed walking the ranch and coast nearby. The home could use some TLC - the kitchen sink was leaky and the showers screeched.

There seems to be a disconnect between the owners and property management. They advertised having a grill, and we planned our meals accordingly, so one of us had to go to a local park to grill several of our meals. (We packed all our ingredients so we wouldn't have to shop while out of county during the pandemic.) I called the property management about the grill, and they contacted the owners who said they removed the grill due to safety concerns. Property management offered no accommodation for this false advertising. Also, there was a scheduled PG&E power shut-off that lasted 9+ hours one of the days. I wish we would have known prior to the shut-off, as we ended up having had to sit in the car to charge our devices. In my experience, PG&E sends notifications prior to scheduled shut-offs. However, no one relayed this information to us.

We look forward to returning to Cambria, but probably not to this home.

Great location with beautiful sunsets and the beach nearby and also the nature preserve in walking distance. Easy access to town.

The house is lovely and provides spaces for everyone to come together or find a quiet corner to read.

The property was spotless and perfect for our small family needs. It was nicely decorated. The amenities were as advertised. We only met with the management company upon arrival but they were ready for us and the check-in and check-out were simple and fast. The bathrooms were well stocked with plenty of linens and paper goods. As a long time VRBO customer this was one of the best properties we stayed in.

House was very nice. The master and one bedroom downstairs are very large!
And the 3 bedroom is average sized. Great house and the layout. The 3rd story is a small loft overlooking the kitchen/dining. Not exactly beach front or strong beach view. But it’s a great and quiet neighborhood. And it’s a short drive (2 min) to the Main Street of town or to moonstone beach.

Spacious and extremely clean, great for groups with kids, garage full of beach and toys

The house was nice and close to many amenities. We had a problem with ants in the kitchen and we purchased bug spray to try to kill them. They were pretty bad even when we made sure there was no food left on the counters. They could also use mirrors in the downstairs bedrooms.

Very relaxing, quiet neighborhood, great views of ocean, very clean.

We travelled to Cambria with friends and had a blast at this cozy home. It was great for our family (2 year old) and friends and was centrally located.

Park Hill was a beautiful home. It had a great view especially from the top sitting room. The home has everything we needed and was extremely clean. We did a nearby hike and enjoyed a few local restaurants. Our family had a wonderful stay. The rental agency was very helpful too as it was a last minute change of plans due to snow storm.

We had a great time with our family in this place. The home is spacious and the beds were extremely comfortable. We've stayed in Cambria for the last 5 years and this has been the best stay so far. It's close to the beach, has a great walk to the beach and is close to downtown. Thank you very much.

We really enjoyed the house - perfect for 3 generations for a weekend wedding in Cabria!

This home met all expectations and more! Spacious while comfy and cozy at the same time.The set up invites you to relax, spend time with family, or just look
Out of the window at the amazing views. Beds are comfortable, kitchen is stocked, and one closet is full of games and puzzles. Walking distance to the beach. A true gem!

Great, my family loves to vacation in Cambria. They love the quietness and calmness of Cambria.

We rented the Park Hill Cottage for our daughter's graduation from Cal Poly SLO. The home was beautiful and in pristine shape. Unfortunately we did not have much down time to just enjoy this home and the surroundings. Great Trip!

Park Hill Cottage was everything we expected and more to make our Cambria stay a vacation to remember. The property was comfortable for 3 people and the neighborhood is very quiet. I highly recommend this home to anyone looking for a quiet sanctuary to get some much needed R&R.

This home was absolutely perfect for our mother/daughter/sister trip to celebrate my sister's 60th birthday. The accommodations were comfortable, homey and very well-equipped; the proximity to town was great; and driveway/off street parking made for easy in and out. Just be aware it is 3 stories, with the beautiful ocean view really best seen from the top level.

It was a great experience being in this house. It's very close to Fiscalini Park and Moonstone Beach both of which are great attractions. The house was well equipped with everything and it allowed for privacy for everyone in the party.

Park Hill Cottage was clean, well maintained and filled with little nooks to read in peace and gaze out at the ocean.

We loved this vacation. The house was extremely well- equipped and comfortable. We loved walking and running the trails at the Fiscalini Ranch Reserve and Moonstone Beach. We visited Heast Castle and the elephant seals, and did a little shopping in town. But mostly we relaxed in the very comfortable house, cooked, read, and rested far away from our hectic daily schedules. We wanted peace and quiet, not excitement and activities, and this was exactly what we were looking for.

I rented this cottage to be near the beach and the town of Cambria and it did not fail. The house was perfect for me and my family. I was most impressed that a baby gate was available in the house as my 20 month old granddaughter was also there! I would rent this place again!
It would not be good for someone with mobility issues however, as there are a lot of stairs otherwise - ideal property for us!

GOOD STAY

Everything was great, with the most outstanding weather that we have ever had in Cambria.

Beautiful home, had a wonderful time.

Great beach house with a lovely family atmosphere, a perfect home to celebrate labor day with the family. Many Thanks!

This house was perfect for our family. We had 8 of us stay there and had plenty of room. The location was great in proximity to what Canbrua has to offer. The only down part was the master bed was too soft for me and my back so I was stiff each morning. Otherwise we all thoroughly enjoyed our stay here!

Overall, the rental was in good condition. It's a cute little place in a great location!Easy walk to Fiscalini Ranch and to Moonstone Beach (both are gorgeous!)Though, it could use some new pans and TLC for the downstairs bathroom (tub doesn't drain properly). PH35 makes a good base camp.

We enjoyed our stay at Park Hill cottage... clean quiet wonderful, thank you.

We really enjoyed our stay in this spacious house. It's a very short downhill walk to the beach and in a nice neighborhood. Definitely recommend staying here.

The house was homey and extremely comfortable. It was well located and had wonderful views of the coastline. We really appreciated the three levels because it allowed the grown ups to be totally separate from the teenagers. Yet the common areas were large enough for all of us to gather to watch movies, play games and kick back as a group. I gave one less star for cleanliness because the carpet was a little dirty, but everything else was perfect. One suggestion for the kitchen, aluminum foil to line cookie sheets.

we had a wonderful time here. .3 miles from the beach on a steep road. the house was comfortable and spacious. Beautifully decorated with tons to do nearby. We would definitely do this again.

Everything was wonderful...great location! I'm coming back!!

This house was a great place to stay for a quiet week away from my 'norm.' The kitchen was stocked with everything I needed, beds were comfortable, plenty of space...the only thing I would have liked better was a better view of the ocean.

Spent four days here over the Christmas holiday with our family. The kitchen was fully stocked and made for some excellent meal preparation. The living room is great for hanging out and playing cards or just relaxing with a view of the ocean.

Note: you won't have great cell phone service. It's pretty spotty in Cambria.

The house itself is wonderful. 3 stories of space and light. From the photos it looks like it would have outside decks and amazing views. Not so. In fact, seeing the water is a bit of a stretch. It's a close walk to Moonstone Beach; accessible to all the area has to offer. But if you want head-on water views, inside and out, this isn't the house.

The photo of the property was very misleading! It showed the living room much bigger than it actually was. I would strongly suggest that the property be listed as comfortably housing 6 adults, not 8!
The property was clean, in good repair, and nicely decorated, but the towels were stained. They needed to be replaced or bleached. The coffee maker took about 25 min to run the coffee! A newer one would be great, also a dish drainer and MORE plates and silverware! We had to run the dishwasher after EVERY meal because there was not enough flatware. That doesn't save water!! Nicole is by far your most congenial, helpful, gracious and personable employee!! Several times I came into the office to this view: many people, on the phone, on the computer, until finally one would look up and greet me! That should be the FIRST response! Customers should be greeted IMMEDIATELY upon entering your office. I have rented a beach house once a year for years. I was disappointed in this one, mostly due to misrepresentation of the size. We had 8 adults. 2 years ago we rented Paradise on Park Hilll (?) and Bob Kaspar assisted us. It was a very positive experience.

This is a great place. We had an awesome time. The property management professional was very professional and co-operative. We had a little emergency situation on the day of our checkout and when I called the property management they promptly allowed to stay a couple hours beyond the usual check-out time..

property was clean. owner could update and expand cooking items. the furniture could be updated. needs new coffee maker.

I was afraid because after I rented I found a review in Yelp where they gave it a 1 star. But I found the property very nice, clean. They could update some furniture and clean the windows. The house needs more lights for sure but other than that it was very comfortable and I definitely would come back. Breem Realty was exceptionally great, very professionals and accommodated.
