Wonderful place to stay in Moss Beach - right on the water, walking trails for miles, close to Half Moon Bay and Moss Beach Distillery. House was wonderful with a beautiful wraparound deck, fenced in yard, and lots of space indoors for families or friends!

The location is amazing — right on the beach with beautiful views and a quiet neighborhood close to trails and restaurants. The host was great with communication, and the furniture was comfy, but some of the light fixtures and décor were pretty dusty, and a few areas felt a little worn. The fire pit wasn’t available, and we hope the fireplaces work for winter stays. With a little extra care, this place could be perfect.
