Most well stocked VRBO ever

We had six people staying in the house and it accommodated all of us beautifully. The house was the most well-stocked house we’ve ever stayed in on VRBO. Centrally located with easy access to both CA and OR I would highly recommend staying here.

Overall good

Thank you Rhonda for letting us use your space to host a family reunion! The rooms were overall good, though one of the bed frames did break (again it appears since it was taped together) while we were there, just by sitting on it...Furniture is a bit old and we were all pretty nervous about the rules of making sure everything was in the right place. But the outdoor space is huge and glorious and made it so worth it.

Weekend stay

Communication was great-property was clean. I would say if it’s cold make sure to stop off and grab pellets for the stove- the only thing slightly negative was an animal got into the trash the first night we stayed so cleaning up trash that was not ours was not much fun.

A Great Stay!

Our group of 9 adult family members all agreed this home was comfortable and relaxing. Due to an unusual heat wave in the west, the weather here was absolutely amazing! Crystal clear and pleasantly warm every day. We couldn't think of a single item we needed that wasn't provided, and we really appreciated (and contributed to) the left-over spices cupboard. Had a great barbeque lunch our last day, the perfectly located gas grill worked flawlessly. Good communication through the app with host Rhonda easily took care of a couple of minor issues. Great place, great stay, highly recommend.

Beautiful Sunsets for Wedding Reception

We enjoyed our stay at the spacious Pacific Sunset House. It was definitely large enough for our group of 6 family members.The kitchen was well stocked. Quiet location and convenient to hwy 101. Loved that every bedroom had an Ocean view. Our grandson/son/brother Liam and his fiance Shea's married at Lone Ranch Beach and had their wedding reception at this house. Beautiful settings for both the beach wedding and the house's yard for the reception. The owner Rhonda was very willing to help with the planning for the Wedding reception. Only down fall is the ground is uneven in the yard. Thank you The Moore/Sheen Family

2,100 SQ FT is well thought out - 1 week with a family of 12. Exceeded expectations

Summary: I was pleasantly surprised by how well thought out this home is. I was concerned that 12 people (8 adults, 4 teens) could not be comfortable in 2,100 SQ FT. However, the 4 bedrooms and 2 full baths upstairs are well appointed and comfortable. The addition of a sink and coffee center in the hallway is genius. It allowed for people upstairs to make a cup of coffee early without having to be concerned about waking anyone downstairs. We had family sleeping in the 5th bedroom downstairs (living room with built in stylish screen. A 3/4 bath and laundry are located nearby. We enjoyed the gas grill, fire pit, full fridge and bonus wine fridge! The kitchen is plentiful, we found the appliances, cookware, dishes, and utensils needed. This property is near everything. It was so easy to take a short drive and be in the redwoods or at the beach. This home exceeded my expectations and I'm grateful we found it and that the host was so accommodating.
