*COVID-19 ADVANCED CLEANING AND DISINFECTANT GUIDELINES
In light of the coronavirus outbreak, we are monitoring the situation closely with the safety of our travelers in mind. We welcome those who are in need of a safe place to stay, but also highly encourage those to follow the advice provided by the CDC and our local government at this time. The safety and well-being of our guest is always our top priority, but at times like this our commitment takes on a special significance in the light of the global outbreak of COVID-19. This is both our home and our business and we take great pride in maintaining the highest standard of cleanliness. We have instituted a 24 hour wait period before entering the home. Our cleaning vendor follows CDC cleaning and disinfection guidelines. However, all guests should also do their part to disinfect the unit. We also include disinfectant wipes and sprays for guests during their stay. We will continue to monitor the coronavirus (COVID-19) updates from the world health organization, the US centers for disease control and prevention and the County of San Luis Obispo health department and will continue to respond based on the best advice of governments, public health authorities, and medical professionals.

The “Beach Cottage” is located just 2 blocks from the Morro Strand State Beach, a five mile uninterrupted expanse of sand and waves. As you drink coffee in the morning, you can sit at the breakfast nook or on the glass enclosed front deck and watch the waves break with Morro Rock to the South and all of Estero Bay to the western horizon. One can actually see 50 miles of coast; south of Montana De Oro (Point Bishon) and north to Estero Point (north of the abalone farm). At the south end of Cayucos on Ocean Blvd, you are surrounded by headland hills and blue water. Most days you will see local professionals soaring off the tops in their para-gliders, right behind the house, landing on the flat in front of the beach…cool!
The house has been totally remodeled. Walls have been removed and sight lines were considered so that you have views from everywhere in the great room. The deck has comfortable chairs, a table for dining, gas grill and a 10’ umbrella for sun protection. The kitchen has a suite of Samsung stainless appliances, quartz countertops throughout. We also added a On Demand tankless water heater in 2018. The great room offers comfortable seating for conversation or making use of the 55” flat screen Smart TV; Premium Channels package, and sound system. The full bath has top of the line hardware, tub/shower option, water saver loo, and double sinks; storage for your personal beach towels, can be stacked in the ample storage closet. The 3/4 bath also has water saver loo, walk in shower, and sink with storage beneath. The Guest bedroom has a queen bed and is tastefully decorated with a 47" flat screen Smart TV. The Master bedroom has a Cal-King, high boy dresser, and also a 47” flat screen Smart TV.
The back yard has a quiet setting with a water fountain, succulent garden, and a gas fire pit for those roasted marshmallows and Smores. A storage shed is available for larger toys like surfboards, bikes, or things that DO NOT GO IN THE HOUSE! The backyard is enclosed and lockable. There is no garage privilege. Owners store rental paraphernalia there. NOTE...We added a space over the garage and carport in 2018 that is the owners residence. It was designed by our architect to elimate any sound transference between floors.

Wonderful home, a bit too much highway noise
Everything inside the home is pristine. The kitchen was very well stocked and had wonderful appliances. I was happy to see the gate on the front porch so my dog could lay out in the sun when he wanted. Every day my dog and l took full advantage of the quick walk to the beach. It is a fabulous beach for dogs (and humans, too). My only complaint is the home's location being right on Highway 1. The weather was perfect while I was there and I wanted to leave the front door open, but the noise from the travel ruined the peacefulness of the view, so I kept it closed most of the time. This is a great area for hiking, our favorite activity, walking around town, especially Morro Bay which still has the flavor of beach towns of the past. Cindy was a very nice host, but keeps her phone on "do not disturb" from 9:00 PM - 9:00 AM. The smoke detector went off at 8:00 AM for no reason. I tried everything to get it to stop, but it kept going for over 20 minutes, when it finally stopped. I texted Cindy numerous times, but didn't get a response her until an hour or so later. She said she was visiting with a friend and had her phone on silent. Another time I texted her at 3:00 pm asking about additional propane for the grill in case the tank ran out and did not hear back until 5 pm. I thought she should have been more available. Overall, I had a great time in the Cayucos/Morro Bay area and enjoyed the home.

A Treasure on the central Coast
We really enjoyed our stay at this remarkable cottage! Everything is updated and tastefully decorated. The light and spacious kitchen had everything we needed neatly organized. For my husband who has low vision, the walk in shower, amazing lighting and multiple windows were the best! It was hard to find a property that had all of these amenities, plus oven views, but we found it all here! Cindy was a great host, answering our questions quickly and respectful of our privacy at the same time. It’s a Shore Thing’ that we’ll be back!

Perfect accommodations
We were delighted to find this place to be everything a VRBO should be. The accommodations made us feel right at home as soon as we walked in. The proximity to all the local sites was very helpful. We especially enjoyed the nearby Morro Bay Dog Beach which was only minutes away.

About the host

Hosted by Cindy Pierce

Host profile image
Cindy and I grew up in the Central Valley of California and always loved the surf, boarding and fishing. After owning rental homes in Fresno, our home town, we decided to get into the Central Coast housing market with a full time rental in Los Osos in 2000, thinking that it was where we would like to retire, eventually. Fourteen years later, as we closed in on retirement, we were able to trade rentals when we found the Cayucos house. With a vision in our minds and countless hours of watching DIY shows, we hired an architect and a contractor to make our dream reality. In the last month, as we finished our work, we’ve had 4 generations of family spend time with us and, as you can imagine, loved the experience.

Why they chose this property

We never thought we could find a home with proximity to the ocean, views, and requirements of 2bd, 2ba, inside laundry, and a garage that was affordable. We just got lucky. When discussing a mobil home with our good friend and realtor, Jeff Blanchard, he asked us what we really wanted and he said, “There is a house…” and we came immediately to check it out. In less than 10 minutes, Cindy was ready for an offer and I said, “Hell yah!!” The financing was a bit complicated, but, long story short, we have been able to remodel the ocean home of our dreams. The house is centrally located on the Morro Strand beach and within short driving distance of many coastal attractions. We hope to move to the cottage in the future, but, for now, we will share it with a few “Ocean lovers.”

What makes this property unique

Without doubt, the view, the closeness to the ocean, and the comfort of the home are its unique qualities. The family throws their toys and towels into the wagon and we walk to the beach. Within 3 minutes, we are in sand, shoes off, wind in our face, waves crashing at our feet. Kids are digging in the sand, surfers are working the waves and couples are walking their dogs for miles. Nice place to be!
Aside from beach life, there are a multitude of other activities. World renown wine country with more than 250 wineries to visit and taste. Gather friends and let someone else do the driving. Sightseeing up and down the coast: Hearst Castle, sea lion rookery, Montana De Oro, Big Sur, Artist Colony at Harmony, fine dining in towns up and down the coast, and last but not least, you could simply put your feet up, read a book and relax... the Pacific Ocean stretching for as far as you can see.
