Great stay in Cambria
We have nothing but good things to say about Alex's Cottage by the Sea and Trails. The check-in process was easy - Alex even sends a video so you can see how to get to the entry. The rooms were clean and spacious, and we loved the deck and the beautiful, wide view from the living room windows. It was really nice to have a full kitchen, with refrigerator, oven, microwave, and sink. The location is great. Even though it's on a corner and Ardath Street does have a fair amount of traffic, it was never noisy or distracting. The Fiscalini Preserve is easily close enough to walk to and the property is a quick drive from businesses and restaurants in Cambria and close to Cayucos and Morro Bay. Alex is a perfect host, who communicates well and makes sure your needs are met, while still respecting your privacy. We loved our stay and want to return soon.

Relaxing
We enjoyed hiking on the trails close to the house. The proximity to Cambria and Hwy 1, and all the coastal sites made it easy to explore. Nice to come back to a relaxing atmosphere after exploring.

Comfortable Spot for a Getaway
My husband and I wanted a quiet place to stay for a couple of nights while we explored the Pacific Coast. We were very happy with this location. It was very quiet and easy to find. We were given detailed instructions before we arrived so that we knew exactly how to get into the property. Everything was very clean and comfortable. The pictures were an accurate portrayal of what you will get. We were there without our children, however we would have been comfortable with our two teenagers for a couple of nights. The hosts gave us a lot of great ideas for things to do in and around Cambria, which we really appreciated. Cambria is a fun seaside town, and the beach there is a fun one to walk. We had everything we needed for our two night stay, and we would recommend it to others looking for something similar.

We had a great time walking in the Fiscallini Reserve, walking on the board walk on moonstone beach and going to Morro Bay and walking on the beach for a day. Very relaxing.

Charming base for our Central Coast visit
The property is clean, private, comfortable, and quiet. It was a very short walk to the large Fiscalini preserve, which provides numerous walks/hikes that span forest and coastline. Absolutely beautiful. Alex was super responsive and provided us tips on where to go and where to eat. We had one minor issue during our stay that he helped resolve immediately. In addition to Cambria, the location was a perfect base for us to visit Hearst Castle, Paso Robles, and Morro Bay. One hint:pack lots of layers. It was 80 degrees and sunny at Hearst Castle, and 55, windy, and foggy in the morning and evening along the coast. Overall, a great stay! Thank you Alex and Jessica!

Nice little Cambria "nest"!
Perfect place to stay for one to two people. Clean, pleasant and well appointed. Love the close proximity to the trail heads at the Fiscalini Ranch Preserve. My furry friend loved the daily walks!

Great Place to see the sights from!
This VRBO was perfect central place for taking in the sights along Big Sur, exploring Paso Robles, Jade Cove and Hearst Castle, eating Olallieberry Pie at Linn's, and going to visit the elephant seals! The host communicated great and had alot of good suggestions for us. The bottle of wine awaiting our arrival was very welcome too! The place was ultra clean and quiet which is always the most important thing we look for in a place to stay. There is tons of room here and easily a place to kick back and relax!

Cottage by Fiscalini Preserve
My wife and I picked this location to be next to the hiking trails in the Fiscalini reserve and it did not disappoint. The unit was immaculately cleaned, well appointed, and much more spacious than online pictures would suggest. There is a separate entrance into a fairly large, relaxing courtyard. A private entrance to the house from this area takes you to a room on the first level which serves as both a laundry room as well as an extra bedroom with a small bed. Walk up one flight of stairs and you are in the main living area with a comfortable couch, a full kitchen, a dining table that seats two, and a pleasant balcony to watch the sunset and have a glass of wine. The bedroom was much larger than anticipated with a very comfortable king-size bed and an adjacent bathroom with a shower/two sinks. The hiking trails were less than a five-minute walk away and downtown Cambria was only a 6 minute drive. It was also nice to have a TV with Netflix. We recommend this rental without hesitation.

Fantastic Location and Host
This was a great experience - the property is so centrally located. Only about 15 minutes from Hearst Castle, 5 minutes from downtown Cambria where all the eateries are. Alex was very communicative and helpful with suggestions for how to maximize enjoyment on my trip. Him and his wife were very welcoming and no complaints about the property. My boyfriend Michael and I also brought our dog Baxter who very much enjoyed his stay as well. 10/10 would recommend and would stay again.
