Bird Watch @ Land's End with Amazing Views of the Harbor and Pacific Ocean


Bird Watch TOT#728N From the entrance of this lovely, beachfront home you'll marvel at the stunning views of Bodega Harbor, and the vast Pacific beyond. The Birdwatch sits perched above the water - a vantage point from which you'll enjoy the spectacle of hundreds of shore birds feeding happily along the tide line below. From your private outdoor spa you'll be lulled by the distant roar of ocean waves as they crash onto the giant rocks off Bodega Head. The house is newly constructed of marble, granite, wood and glass, and comes equipped with wi-fi, propane fireplaces, and spectacular vistas beckoning from both richly-appointed bedrooms, a living room made to live in, and the marquee attraction - an incredible gourmet kitchen that'll make your time spent hanging around the house seem well-spent. Lounge on the deck if you like, or take the stairs down to the beach and breathe deep that bracing ocean air. We guarantee you will have an unforgettable Northern California adventure at the Birdwatch.

Bodega Bay is the magic spot where you can experience untamed Northern California coastal living amid the splendors of Nature – whether your passion is wine tasting, kayaking, windsurfing, fishing, or just roaming the spectacular hills – launch your adventures from the house you'll rent... The Bird Watch; your Bodega Bay vacation Hideaway.
From the moment you step through the ornately designed gateway, with its frosted glass accents, and then pass by the hot tub grotto, sheltered by the fragrant branches of ancient cypress trees, you know you've arrived someplace special. Open the front door and your pulse quickens as the senses are overwhelmed. Vast expanses of glass reveal a timeless panorama of water, the Bay, and beyond, the Pacific. You're aware of flocks of birds, swirling in the trees above you, clustering in the tidal shallows below you. You finally exhale. This is where you dwell. But, what of your immediate surroundings? You shift your glance to the roomy kitchen, all gleaming metal and buffed stone, with its massive marble island, bar stools, and a cozy, built-in window dining area looking out over the water. Your gourmet food fantasies will not take a backseat to the outdoor attractions on this vacation. A charming queen size bedroom shares this upper level of the house, with its own view of the Harbor. A beautiful bathroom adjoins, where an inviting two-person shower awaits. Descending from the kitchen is a travertine limestone staircase that leads to the master bedroom level, with its king size bed and equally arresting water views. Serving the master bedroom area is a large bathtub, with a seamless glass shower set against a private window.

Perfect getaway
Second stay, and we have decided to make this an annual retreat. We had a lovely range of weather, which made the panoramic view in turn peaceful and dramatic. The beach walks ranged from ultra easy to challenging, and making the choice between viewing serene marshes, sandy beaches, or crashing waves was always rewarding. The house itself is a true delight. Immaculate, well-designed, comfortable, well-stocked and beautiful. Close to everything we needed (espresso, ice cream and delicious a moment’s walk away). The property manager was delightful, stopping by as we arrive to make sure that the cushions for the deck furniture had not blown away during a quickly passing storm that morning. Every quiet moment was pure pleasure,

Absolute Gem!
We truly loved our stay! The beds were comfy, the kitchen perfect for our forays into cooking every night, but the BEST were the views! Easy access to walk to the ocean, so many amazing birds to see, and probably the most peaceful, restful VRBO we've ever had the pleasure to stay in! FIVE STARS! We'll be back!

I've stayed in a lot of VRBOs in my travels. This is by far the best. The attention to detail, layout, views.... Absolutely, the best place to put your feet up and read a book!

Just what we needed as a family
Perfect location to relax as a family. Weather wasn't cooperating but had a fantastic time heading to Bodega Head to see the ocean swells of 40 feet in downpour. Had "World's best clam chowder", played golf in the window of no rain, and completed a 1,000pcs puzzle. House had throw-back DVD player which our adult kids enjoyed. Would like to go back again in Summer to enjoy the season and maybe some Kayak!

We enjoyed the view all day long, watching shorebirds feast and fly, seals explore and bald eagles perch after catching their prey. The accommodations were cozy and comfortable. Everything was clean and the directions were clear. We look forward to returning again!

Idealic!
Everything we’d hoped for. Perfect location with amazing views across the bay. Just a note that many of the local eateries were closed or on restricted opening times. It may have been because it was October and so late in the season. We discovered Drakes on our last morning and wished we’d done so sooner as offered a wider range of dishes than most of the local takeaways/restaurants.
