Oceanview Gatsby House

Beautiful. property, close to everything you need.And yet you feel like you've had the world to yourself.Being comfortable in the most elegant setting was amazing.In itself.The long walks overlooking the ocean & through the forested area of the preserve were amazing. It's absolutely one of our favorites.

Kitchen is well stocked with plenty of cooking and serving ware. There were plenty of small appliances available like a slow cooker. The beds are comfortable and the property is well maintained. While you get a view of the ocean from the front porch/deck and the living room, we spent most of our time on the courtyard patio. It is private, has a nice view of the upper Fiscalini Ranch trail system which you can access from the back gate. While we did not have any wind while there, the patio is set up in a way that I think would block much of it. It often gets windy at that spot in Cambria so that is a big bonus. The garden in the back was lovely while we were there. Lots of bee and butterfly activity. Cambria was unusually hot for March while we were there. Actually, it was hot for Cambria anytime of the year. The house stayed nice and cool. The patio also remained pleasant even during the heat of the day. My one gripe would be the outdoor motion-controlled lighting which seems imposable to truly turn off (there is a sign telling you not to). You can see so many stars in Cambria which we enjoy viewing. We eventually found a spot to sit that would not set off the lights as long as we did not move around too much but it was annoying. What is it with people and lights? Maybe to scare away the deer from the garden? I live in a rural area and people have them where I live too. I hate them. Anyway, except for the lights we were happy.

This is a lovely clean home with beautiful views. We loved the walking trails nearby. The living room furniture wasn’t very comfortable and we were disappointed that the filtered water in the refrigerator didn’t work. Overall we would happily recommend this place.

Quiet, spacious, ocean views, backs up to Fiscallini Ranch Preserve and a short drive into town.

We loved the property and it's location. The house was very clean, nicely furnished, and well equipped, and stocked. Everything in the house functioned properly and we had no problems or complaints. I especially liked the home's view of the ocean and it's proximity to the Fiscalini Ranch Preserve, with it's many hiking trails and views of the coast.
