Husband's birthday trip
The home is very nice size, and has all the necessary items for a comfortable stay. The back yard is very large and very nicely landscaped. It was so relaxing to sit and look out at. The home is walkable to the beach, which was so fun to do with our family and dogs. So many shells were collected. We sincerely appreciate the owners allowing us to bring our three elderly dogs. It was very comforting to have them with us and enjoy a time away in a beautiful setting!

Romantic and cozy
The place had all the amenities and the sauna was a bonus! We played two days of golf at Halfmoon bay and rested at home relaxing in the sauna, played music and just enjoyed the house. Thx. Only downfall was a response from the owner and reply time was bit slow. Otherwise it was perfect getaway.

Home away from home
As the title says this very much felt like a home away from home - we were delighted to be able to enjoy it with our own family. There is a playground d next door which you can see from the back garden. Some reviews commented that perhaps there should be some screening. As long as you know it’s there I disagree. It’s a perfect spot for parents and grandparents to keep their eye on grandchildren playing in the park! Keith, thanks so much for all your help with booking! We d love to return!

Thank you so much!
Really appreciated our stay in your home. This was a poignant time for our family and friends to honor and celebrate our mom's life. And especially to highlight my mom's community in Half Moon Bay. This home did not disappoint and was a very welcoming place to return to each evening as we came "home" from my mom's funeral and then doing the work to move out of her home over on Myrtle. Thank you and hope to stay again.

Beautiful Home in a Great Location
The house is more spacious than what the pictures on VRBO reveal. Also, the home is conveniently located near many amenities (e.g., the playground is right next door and the beach is only a couple of blocks.) This rental is ideal for families and family gatherings. The owners were kind enough to let me host my mom's 70th birthday dinner party at their place, which were so appreciative for. Thank you, Keith!

Walking distance to beach & downtown
This spacious property was perfect for 3 couples. We enjoyed the well stocked kitchen, big dining room & lovely yard. Having 3 1/2 bathrooms was a big plus. We walked to town or the beach at least once each day. This house truly is in an ideal location.

Great Location
House is a 5min walk to the bluffs on the coast and walkable distance to the heart of Half moon bay. Kitchen was well stocked. The backyard is super cute. We really appreciated having 3.5 bathrooms. The house is truly RIGHT next to the park. I think the house could benefit from some additional privacy hedges, but it's no big deal

What it feels like to live in Half Moon Bay
We enjoyed this property very much. Unlike the other rentals that might photoshop their images, the reverse is true here. The place is better in person than the photos. We were pleasantly surprised at how nice and large this place was. It’s very clean, has a quirky layout with quirky items. It feels like a home converted to a rental so there are interesting items in the house to explore such as decor, books, games and a record player, which we thoroughly enjoyed listening to one evening. (Ella Fitzgerald, Paul Simon, Fleetwood Mac and John Lennon to name a few). We loved sitting in the back garden and patio among all the beautiful plants and flowers that are well taken care of. We personally enjoyed having a children’s playground next door as it provided lively sounds of a good time being had. Lastly, the location can’t be beat. It’s in the heart of the neighborhood. Walk outside and turn right and walk straight to Half Moon Bay Coastal Trail for walks atop the cliffs and beach. Twenty minute walk in the other direction takes you to main street with novelty shops and restaurants. Pro-Tip - we were there for a wedding and several of us needed to get ready at the same time. The upstairs bathroom has Jack and Jill sinks and one long, large mirror - this came in very handy accommodating everyone.
