The furniture was a little dated and locking the property on our way out was a little tricky. The property felt safe and it was super close to the beach. Spent the weekend here with my family and we really enjoyed our time. It’s nearby Bodega and Santa Rosa. Getting everywhere seem like such a short distance. I would definitely return.

A Great Stay

Stayed here for our annual fishing trip on the New Sea Angler. Very impressed, great location near the beach and a very short drive to the harbor. Super clean, comfortable beds and well appointed. Some earlier reviews referenced issues, we experienced none. A great Stay!

Pelican House was great!

Quiet, relaxing, clean property with extremely close access to Salmon Creek State Beach. Plenty of room for a family of up to 6 to stay & sleep comfortably if needed. My husband & I came here for a getaway weekend and it was exactly what we got. Close to HWY 1 for drives along the coast and exploring the area. Would stay again! Thank you!

GREAT LOCATION, older house

Location is whey we booked this house. You can easily walk to Salmon Creek Beach which is beautiful! Great for sea glass hunting too. Also an easy location if you want to split your time between Bodega Bay and the Russian River. House, furniture, beds are all well past being comfortable. Very small kitchen and bathrooms. We never cooked there, but so many good cafes and restaurants it doesn't really matter.

Nice home in the trees and walking distance to coast.

Cute and quirky home that was a short walk to stunning beach. Comfortable kitchen / sitting area upstairs with a nice game/tv room down stairs. Very tree house like feeling upstairs.

Girl's Trip

Myself, my sister and a high school friend reunited and had a wonderful tine on the west coast. We had a fabulous time staying at the Pelican House! Proximity to beach was superb. Everthing we needed for our stay was right at our finger tips. The home was very clean, and beds were comfy. Just a couple of cob webs hanging around in areas usually missed by routine house keeping. We would absolutely stay at Pelican House in Bodega Bay, again, when visiting!

Perfect Location

Easy walk to Salmon Creek Beach and a trail system within walking distance. The house itself is beautiful and in a prime location. Kitchen had all needed items to prepare meals; saved money on bringing our own food and we were lucky not to have to bring pots, pans, utensils, etc. The door lock is a tricky one when locking from the outside, but very secure. Common element in beach houses, the furniture needed attention. I understand it’s very hard clean the fabric on those couches and they’ve had quite a bit of use.

Relaxing getaway

Staying in a rustic, remote neighborhood by the beach was a perfect way to unwind and spend time with my family. It’s about 20 minutes for shopping and restaurants though a walk from the house for walks on the beach. We hiked Goat trail-about 20 minute drive on the coast, went horseback riding (outside Bodega Bay) and spent a day on the Russian River. The house was well equipped with comfortable beds and hang out area with pool table. It was a little cold when we first arrived though the central heat works. We used the wood burning stove for the rustic feel-works well to heat the house.

Operated by a VRBO competitor

The place was nice enough, though it needed someone with a toolbox to give it some love, but overall not bad, and if you like escape rooms, you might enjoy trying to find the light switches around this place!Among the fun things in this house is the basement dehumidifier that turns on every few minutes and causes the living room lights to blink off and come back on. Dress warmly if you want to play pool or watch a movie because the heat doesn't reach that room and if you try to use the two tiny space heaters in there you will trip the circuit breaker.The real problem was that the property is managed (owned?) by some company that wanted me to use their website to manage my rental rather than VRBO - no thanks. This other company was also very spammy and sent me 10 emails ahead of my stay and nine texts! That is approximately 17 too many!I signed up for a quiet vacation, not to get spammed.

Pelican House

This is a great house in an awesome location within walking distance to the beach and fun hike on the dunes. The house is roomy enough for 2 couples or families. There are 2 queen beds with their own bathrooms and the futon pulls out to a bed and there is a rollaway bed as well. Kitchen is well-stocked. Furniture is a bit outdated but still very comfty. This is definitely not an updated house but is roomy and comfy and having windows all the way around really makes you feel you are hanging out in the trees. If going during this cold rainy winter, bring wood for the wood burning stove or ask if it is provided. We would have loved to have a fire but there wasn't any wood. We had a great time and would definitely book again.

Cozy

Great spot and cute place. Lots of stairs so be weary of that. My dad is older and moves slowly so he didn’t even go to the second floor but luckily there was everything he needed on the first floor. Very cute and cozy inside. Some of the lights seemed to not work or be intermittent. There was an loudish humidifier (or something downstairs) that would kick on and off that we weren’t allowed to turn off. It also seemed to be a big power draw as the lights dimmed every time it kicked on. Pool table was nice but think the cues need some attention. Missing some tips and it’s tight in some spaces so you need the smaller cue but they were all missing the tip. Really close to places to eat and walk to the beach which was shower nice. Cleaning fee seemed a bit high especially since we weren’t really there but to sleep. But, I would go back here again. .

Nice location but neglected property

Nice location, with beautiful sun-lit living room, but otherwise underwhelming for the price. This property is not managed by the owner, but instead, VACASA, a management company. Seems like the place is suffering from neglect. Downstairs bedroom bed broke when my (petite) sister-in-law first sat on it. Seems like the slats were not the right size (I have picture to share if relevant). Front two elements on electric stove do not work. Hood vent did not work in kitchen, so fire alarm went off. Rack wheel broken on top dishwasher rack, so difficult to move. Only one rack in oven: should have at least two, and I needed a second one. Rods missing from several venetian blinds in living, so can't close when sun is streaming in. Significant water damage in upstairs bathroom: plywood panelling warped and broken (also have picture to share).
