Nice stay

The place was very comfortable and clean. It had everything we needed to make our stay pleasant. Love the neighborhood but be aware, if you’re a light sleeper the fog horn is on ALL day and night. There are all kinds of wildlife like deers, hawks, fox and lots of birds. It was beautiful. Overall we were comfortable.

Beautiful home

The house is lovely with a huge backyard deck and a large field that is frequently visited by deer, foxes and birds. The vaulted ceilings in the living room make the house feel even bigger and the bathrobes are soft on the skin after a hot soak in the jacuzzi.

In memory and honor

My kids and I decided to visit their father's favorite places in Bodega Bay. The house was everything we needed. We spent the weekend looking at the stars from the patio, putting together a puzzle we found in the house, watching movies, and visiting local beaches and restaurants. We were able to relax and enjoy our time together. My kids were impressed with the amount of books they found around the house. The only issues we had were there were quite a few spiders and all 3 of my daughter screamed at least twice, and we did a load of laundry after a beach trip but the dryer needs to be serviced. I gave 5 *s because if those were only 2 concerns I have after a three night stay, I can not complain.

Annual Fishermen's Festival

We try to attend the Fishermen's Festival most years but hadn't been since before Covid. We made it this year and thankfully found this home on VRBO. It was perfect for our needs...very comfortable inside and outside. Though quite windy on the coast we were able to sit outside and enjoy the sunshine with the deck railing providing a good wind break. The location was quiet, great for relaxing after our 2 days at the festival. Enjoyed, we'll try to book again.

Great stay!

Mandolin Wind is a lovely 2bd, 2ba home with a marvelous back deck overlooking greenery and a hilltop view of the bay and ocean. Large sliders and windows give a view from inside out over the back deck. 2 car garage for covered parking if needed, and a lovely, fully equipped kitchen for all your cooking fun. The house was clean and well appointed, and felt comfortable. The owner, Robert, was responsive and helpful with my questions, and check in was as simple as getting the key and opening the door. I gave 5 stars because our experience was exactly as advertised, and was in many ways better than we expected.

A Great Getaway

We loved the hot tub and the views. Had a great meal at Fishetarian Restaurant, fish & chips. It was peaceful and quiet and safe. What’s not to like? One bathroom sink was not draining well but we just slipped a butter knife under the stopper to lift it a bit. Then it drained. But all the other amenities were abundant, like all the extra towels as well as beach towels.

Bodega Bay Stay

We had a wonderful time golfing and enjoying our vacation. The property is dated and could use more than an freshen up. Bring your own shampoo, conditioner and body wash. Small bottles from past hotel stays and half used were available, but definitely old. More than enough conditioner. Hall shower is small. The kitchen is ample for any kind of cooking. Nice Weber grill. The spa was perfect for afternoon / evening soaks. We could definitely smell a dog in the second bedroom.

Great stay!

Great location,views, and neighborhood. Very much enjoyed our peaceful 2 night getaway at this VRBO- very clean upon arrival and hot tub was a bonus on the deck. Walked our dog to the beach from house and neighborhood was quiet and felt very safe. Only con - home needs an update. Other than that, it is well equipped and you really don’t need to bring anything but food and your suitcase. Enjoyed our stay 100%!

We loved this place so much. It felt like home. They had everything we could possibly need. The view and the quietness made it so enjoyable to just sit on the deck in the mornings. I can’t recommend this place enough. Thank you so much for allowing us to visit your beautiful home!
