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!

Lovely
Pam was easy to communicate with, responding kindly and quickly. The house is comfortable in every way with including the bed, the garden, the living room and the well appointed kitchen. The house how quite a few pieces of art, ceramics, small sculptures, books and memorabilia but it is not at all crowed and made the house feel like a home. The location was excellent for quickly getting to walks above and on the beach as well as for restaurants, and yet it was extremely quiet. The fact that it is quite close to Rt 1 could have meant we would hear road noise, but with the bedroom windows closed we didn't hear a drop and even with them closed there was rarely audible road noise. The only inaccuracy re: the listing is that it stated that there was a hot tub, there is not. There is a one person jacuzzi tub. Luckily, I had inquired when I didn't see evidence of a hot tub in the photos, so this was not a surprise.

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. I highly recommend a stay at Grace at the Sea for a relaxing and fun vacation.

Cozy cottage
We had an amazing stay at this cozy cottage like house! As a mom of two littles I'm a bit picky of location, and this place felt very safe! The house, beds, and furniture were really comfortable. My two little ones say this is their favorite place we have stayed to date and "it feels like a happy home not a hotel" as they put it so well. The house had everything we needed and more. The outdoor spaces and the upper deck are a major highlight! We spent so much time outside enjoying time among the flowers. You can see the beach off in the distance a bit and could definitely walk to it (maybe 10min walk) but we chose to drive as it was a bit more than just a stroll down the street. It's only about 15 min from goat Rock beach which was our preferred beach. The host was great to work with and she was beyond friendly and helpful. We will be staying here again on our next visit to the area! Thank you!

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.

We loved the location and cottage itself. Cozy and warm, and we could hear the ocean at night! Pam is lovely and left us lemon bars made from the lemons from her backyard tree. FYI, there isn’t a second, separate bedroom; the second bed is in the living room. I didn’t see that in the online description
