I stay in vrbo’s all over the country and the garage house is my absolute favorite. It is truly a hidden gem. You can’t beat the view. Very attentive and thoughtful host. This last stay was my third time here, but definitely won’t be my last. TheGarage house is magical. I’d give it 10 stars if I could.

Great location, gorgeous view, and enjoyed our little fox visitor. The place was quite clean and comfortable but had a slight invasion of pill bugs - not offensive but a little annoying. Would definitely consider staying here again!

We loved staying at this beautiful home. You can’t beat the views! It was a perfect location for us to come back to after a day of exploring tide pools or hiking in the redwoods to soak in the hot tub and listen to the waves below us. We would definitely stay here again.
