A Relaxing Getaway with Thoughtful Details

We had a splendid stay at Pam’s vacation house. The location was great, and the house was comfortable and fully stocked. We especially enjoyed the jacuzzi bathtub and the thoughtful homemade coffee cake Pam baked for us. Highly recommend!

Wonderful Beach Cottage

We have been staying at this wonderful “cottage by the sea” for many years and it is just been a gift to my family. The memories shared here are forever in our hearts. Pam is an amazing host that goes above and beyond by sharing her yummy baked goods, excellent communication from booking, during, and after stay. The house is equipped with absolutely anything you would need to cook yummy meals, close to fish market and shops, short walk to beach, wonderful yard( gorgeous flowers ), and ocean views from balcony upstairs! 5 star place to stay at Salmon Creek for sure!!

Solitude by the Beach

We were looking for a quiet few days off the beaten path, close to the beach and we found it. This quiet, well kept, inviting, cozy place was perfect for relaxing and short walks to, from and on the beach. A wonderful getaway!

The Best VRBO in Bodega Bay area!

As always, our stay was a breath of fresh air, and exactly what we needed to relax and refresh. Thank you so much and we are already thinking of another stay in your lovely, relaxing home-away-from home. Love, Terri & Randy

Perfect in all ways!

We stayed for 5 nights at Pam's adorable little cottage. It was a perfect vacation spot for us away from the busy-ness of the Bay Area. The house and kitchen were well equipped, the beds were clean and comfortable, and there was even a yard for us to enjoy the starry skies. Pam was also very communicative, making sure that our stay was enjoyable. I would love to come back again!

Bodega Bay Getaway

The location of this house is fantastic! Walk to a beautiful beach surrounded by beautiful hills & the fantastic Sonoma coast and redwoods are nearby. Pam, our host, provides you with everything you could possibly need for your stay— a beautiful home with comfortable beds, surprising decor, great yard with abundant flowers and a terrific balcony with stunning views of the ocean and Salmon Creek. Pam is easy to communicate with and immediately takes care of any problems or issues that may arise. We would definitely return and highly recommend Grace At The Sea to anyone.

Comfortable, cosy & clean!

I spent 9 wonderful days at 'Grace at the Sea'. Pam is an excellent communicator and keeps her home spotless and well supplied. As a single older (!) person I felt very safe. Nice easy walks to the ocean, and then you can walk along the beach in either direction for a long way. Or walk along the more in-land meadow trail. Perfect get-away home!

Great stay as usual

We love staying in Salmon Creek at this great little house. We have stayed here for several days on several occasions. Pam keeps the place immaculate and fully equipped. Quick walk to an amazing and wild beach and a new regional park in the hills across Highway One. We plan on staying here again in our annual trek to the Sonoma Coast.

The cottage was beautifully appointed and immaculate. Very cozy living space with a well-equipped kitchen. My husband and I love to spend time near the sea and this cottage was very close to our favorite beach. Communication with the host was very pleasant.

Always a Perfect Stay! :))

Pam's Grace By the Sea has been a family retreat of ours for at least 13 years. Our 18 & 19 y/o boys have grown up playing there 3-4x/year. Her home holds so many of our beautiful family memories. Pam's home is cozy, comfy, peaceful, clean, well-appointed, and so restful! Walking distance to beach, trails, farmer's market. Pam's Bodega Bay Retreat is our family's home away from home. :))
