Casa Blowdega, Vintage Beach Cottage

Step into a beautifully and tastefully remodeled beach cottage with original wooden floors, lovely mid century details, solid Carerra marble bathroom, and redwood deck. Open living space with dual sliders to redwood deck, one full bedroom with one convertible dining room open to kitchen that sleeps additional 2 people, and sleeper bed in living room along with couches for plenty of comfort and entertaining potential. We like to think of ourselves as a authentic historic cabin. If you want total luxury and bling this likely isn’t for you, but if you want an authentic original cottage with 100 year charm and rustic features like original plank flooring, and lots of character we think you’ll like what we have for you. Thanks for looking and let us know if we can answer any questions for you. Hope to hear from you soon.

Weekend getaway
Stephen was great to work with. The home was clean, cozy and in a great location. My wife and 3 children really felt comfortable when we were in the house. With a family of 5 there was just enough space to spread out during the time we were actually in the house. At night, my wife and I slept in the bedroom and each child got a couch. We just brought Sleeping bags for the kids . The place had a nice touch of old decor and modern updates. We will definitely stay there again and I would recommend it to anyone looking to stay in Bodega Bay. sleeping bags

Quaint and Spot On “Old Town” Feel
Your host will not disappoint! Steve was on top of everything and what an authenticity genuine person! He loves the area and it shows! The description of this VRBO is spot on so please don’t expect more. We love “old town” quaint and sometimes quirky, this VRBO fit the bill. Thanks for everything, Steven!

Nice get away
The listing is as it says. Stephen is very nice and super repsonsive. The kitchen is very basic but it served our needs for coffee in the morning and making a pasta dinner. Bath room is small but adequate. Since it was just my husband and I , i put my cosmetic bag on the dinnig table. Bed was very comfortable and the location is very quiet at night. We were very fortunate with the weather while we were there

Nicely decorated cottage
We loved the mid-century modern furniture and decor. The beach cottage was clean and cozy. The back deck was a good place to enjoy morning coffee and the cool, clean air. My friend and I thought the front entrance pergola and planter could use an update - as it would truly be a nice welcoming.

We had a great time
My wife and I love the Sonoma Coast and the west county (Santa Rosa, Sebastopol, Petaluma, Bodega, etc.). We were looking for a central place to stay for several weeks while we explored, visited friends, and absorbed the general vibes. We were not disappointed. The property reminded me of a cabin I rented in Cape Cod years ago: a bit rustic with a lot of history, walking distance to everything I need, and the nicest owner. It looks just like the photographs. My wife in particular liked the washer/dryer, the refrigerator, the stove, the sheets, and the patio. It's about 20 minutes to the supermarkets in Sebastopol, and the scenery between the two is dynamic and beautiful. We left relaxed and energized.

Quiet Stay and Walk to Bodega Bay
We enjoyed the quiet and cozy home. We could walk down to the store easily and the drive to the ocean beach is not too far. The bed was comfortable and the shower/bath worked well. The bathroom sink could use a better hot water, otherwise all was very nice!

Quaint home in bodega bay
Great for a vacation getaway giving you access to a number of wonderful coastal hikes along the beaches and the Armstrong Redwood forest. The gastronomic access to cheese dairies and vineyards helps round out the appeal of this location in Sonoma/Russian River. The VRBO was a quaint home lacking some modern amenities like dishwashers, washing machines, dish disposal but that sort of gave it a time-machine feeling. The furniture selection is a little odd and funky with none of the couches, tables really matching from an era or color standpoint. It was still a bit chilly in early may so luckily the home had electric heaters which came in handy Initially it was a bit hard to find the VRBO especially when arriving after sunset since its located on an unlit street and there are NO numberings on the home whatsoever so luckily google maps was able to point me to the exact home. Stephen was an excellent communicator and helped us resolve an electrical issue promptly. Overall I would consider staying again. -Richard

Quiet cottage
I think this little home would be ideal for someone who was going to go hiking on trails during the day. You would then come back to a place that has what is needed to fix a casual dinner/barbeque. The living room is spacious and plenty of sitting room. Steve answers any questions quickly and has some interesting history to share. The refrigerator/freezer is large. There is a coffee maker, microwave and stove, along with plates etc.

Just what we needed, and a little cold
Blowdega was very good for our stay. It was clean, comfy for our fam of 5, and next to a playground. We had a chilly first night as we couldn't find extra blankets and the central heating. All was corrected the next morning when we asked. Things to know: (1) It's in a little quiet neighborhood and has no view. (2) The location of all the supplies is not obvious, so make sure to ask. We'd stay again!

Perfect low key beach house
My family of all age ranges have stayed here before and loved it. We are nature lovers and very low key. It’s the perfect stay for exploring all that Bodega bay has to offer and clean and close to everything.

Perfect Getaway
My wife and I had a couple days to explore the coast after a visit to my daughter and husband in Sacramento. This was a great jumping off point for our adventures to the beach, seeing redwoods, and enjoying some great seafood. Make sure a part of your stay is walking the Bodega Head peninsula—views are breathtaking. Stephen was a great host, communicated promptly, and has done great work making this property a home!

Charming cottage
We stayed here for 3 nights and had a great time exploring Bodega Bay. The house has old charm with a real fire burning fireplace and cute decor. The landscaping outside is charming and inviting; deck was set up perfectly to enjoy morning coffee. Stephen was a great host and very responsive, even when we had to call him when we got lost due to operator error inputting address into GPS;). Thank you for hosting Stephen!
