  We've rented a few homes in this area, which is incredibly peaceful, quiet, beautiful, and serene. This home was our favorite so far because of it's spaciousness, views, and wood burning stove. The kitchen is very well stocked, and all of the rooms are as described. We hope to come back.

  A little history...We've been going to Bodega for 30+ years and have rented this home a half dozen times, even back when it was known as Ranch View Haven in another life. I recall the kitchen being remodeled several years ago, but otherwise the house had remained pretty much the same throughout. Well, what a surprise to rent this year and have all new appliances (including an amazing gas stove!) and a new hot tub with a working vent fan and sliding doors that actually close! Made for an even better experience than usual. The layout of the home is perfect for trip-goers with multiple groups thanks to the vaulted great room, the large loft and game room. We had four families with kids and never felt on top of each other. Just another great trip with friends and family. Can't wait to book again next year! Thanks BBE for always being awesome, attentive and affordable.

  Minta W from San Ramon, CA recommends this vacation rental

  Had a good overall stay. The rental in a great location, with two different trails less than one mile to the beach, ocean views, surrounded by peaceful landscape. The home was clean and in relative good shape. The vacation rental management staff were extremely helpful, responsive, and accommodating.
  
  Was pleasantly surprised that the games in the game room were fully functional, compared to so many other rentals (different companies) we have stayed at. Our boys loved that the sofa in the game room converts to a full sleeper sofa.
  
  One of the trails to the beach is literally behind the house, just a few steps up the street. A good part of the trail is shaded and is quite enjoyable.
  
  Our one complaint is that the mattress in the master bedroom was terrible, almost like sleeping on cardboard. Not what we expected in the master bedroom, especially as the mattresses in the other rooms were adequately comfortable.
  
  Loved that the hot tub was indoors so could be used in any weather, although the water was a bit greenish and we weren't sure if the fan (which is supposed to be on when using the hot tub) was working at all.
  
  Otherwise a wonderful getaway!

  Terry M from Isleton, CA recommends this vacation rental

  This home was perfect for the 6 of us friends getting together to sew. The house was very spacious and warm with lots of room to spread out. We were able to get 4 cars in the driveway and it was nice not to have to go up a lot of stairs for the main floor. The drop down ironing board was truly appreciated. I would say the cabinets were overloaded with seasonings with a lot of leftover's from people leaving it. The kitchen has almost everything you could possibly want in it. We couldn't watch TV upstairs because we couldn't figure out the remote. I would say a typewritten guide would have been nice. We loved this house so much we plan to rent it again in February of 2024. Thank you to the management for being so kind and accomodating.

  a guest from Napa, CA recommends this vacation rental

  Arrived to clean, warm home with lots of windows to appreciate the ocean & neighborhood views. Plenty of sleeping options on many levels. Lots of cooking pots, pans, dishes and utensils in the kitchen. Would be nice to move the microwave in the corner which took up some useful counter space. Very close to the trails that take you around and down to the lovely beach. We had one small issue and the office crew quickly responded and made things right. I've been to many homes on the Bodega coast and would recommend this one if you are looking for privacy, space and mostly lots of comfort. Some kitchen items are older and could use an upgrade and the mattress in the main bedroom is a bit hard...

The hike to the beach was so peaceful and the plus side to it was that its close by the house. We recommend this place to anyone with a big family and will definitely rent this place out again.

  We had a fantastic stay at Osprey Retreat, which has one of the best locations that I've ever stayed in Bodega Bay Harbor, over 40+ years. The views of the ocean are sweeping and there is a ton of room. Loved that there was no tv on the main level. The kitchen was well stocked with cooking items and the game room was literally a gamechanger for our stay. J & J in the main office were wonderful to work with, as we extended our stay. Thank you, to all!

  This house , with a couple of very minor building exceptions , was a very nice place for our group of 5 former high school friends to meet for a 3 day coastal retreat. I always enjoy dealing with Bodega Bay Escapes as they are far easier to contact and deal with personally to find the right spot than larger rental outfits. The house easily accommodated us and was well equipped.

  We had a great weekend getaway at Osprey Retreat. The home was spacious, clean and well-equipped. Loved the fact that we had ocean views and views of a dairy farm across the gulch, rather than other homes. The location was close to the trail to the beach which was great for the kids.
  
  Everything went incredibly smoothly from the reservation process to our arrival and departure. Would defintely use Bodega Bay Escapes and stay at this location again.

Overall it was a wonderful stay with great friends and outstanding weather. Thank you Bodega Bay Escapes! We will be back.

  First the house: Accommodated our group of five couples with kids perfectly. Lots of room to move around and never felt cramped. Delightful views of both the ocean and the grassy green hills. And with the ping pong table, skeeball machine, hot tub and board games there was never a dull moment. Sure, this as many other Bodega homes could use a little updating. But the kitchen was well stocked, the appliances are new and the beds are soft, what more could you ask for?
  
  Bodega Bay Escapes: They (you) are a pleasure to work with when it comes to renting vacation properties. Pamela and her employees are experts at recommending the proper home for your group and are ready to help if anything is needed. And thank you thank you thank you for not jacking up your fees like the "other" rental outfits in the area. I look forward to renting with you again and again in the years to come.

  We recently stayed in the Osprey Retreat for a Bachelorette Weekend. This home was AMAZING! So much room for all of us to be comfortable. This house goes on and on with new surprises in every room! We had a few minor issues with things not working (portable
  heater in game room, and iPod docking station), and one night our oven would not start. We were also celebrating a bday that night and had plans to make a cake. When we couldn't get the oven to light, we called management. They sent someone right out to investigate
  the problem. When she couldn't figure out why it wouldn't light, she took our cake mix and baked the cake for us!!!!!! She returned a short time later with an amazing pineapple upside down cake as we had requested. This kind of customer service is a breath
  of fresh air. The only bad part was the serious level of depression that kicked in the day of our departure! We have already started planning a trip for next year it was so amazing here! Thank you for our wonderful stay!

  We love this house. This is our third year renting it for our strat-o-matic baseball draft. This house has a unique view of a cattle ranch and our weather was perfect. The one star I deducted on general condition and clean was because the gas grill was completely greasy and not clean. We could not get it to light. We were going to BBQ but could not because of the grill condition. Otherwise awesome as usual!

  Details about the home that may not be obvious from the photos or the official house description: From the driveway it is one step up to the front door, and from the entry hall, one step up to the main level. The master bedroom with full bath is on the main level as are the kitchen, utility room, half bath, and a "great room" consisting of the dining area, living area, and "sun room". A small deck with one non-working grill and one portable tailgater type grill is off the dining area. Bucolic views from the main level include the ranch on the other side of the creek and glimpses of the ocean. Upstairs is a loft with sleeper sofa and love seat. Downstairs is a small sitting room off of which are two queen BRs and a double-twin BR. The hot tub is in a glass-enclosed room accessible through either the double-twin BR or one of the queen BRs or from the outside. Down the hall are two full baths, the game room, and access to the large back deck. The game room has skeeball, air hockey/mini-billiards, and a very stained sofa-bed. We found the kitchen very well stocked though the previous guests had left many dishes quite dirty. The garage has a ping pong table, so you can't park your cars in it.
  
  There are TVs all over the house, though we never turned any on so can’t comment on quality or cable access. Wifi worked for us the first night, but thereafter, though our devices could “see” the router, we kept getting the message that we could not connect.
  
  From the back decks we watched the cows across the way and the myriad quail traipsing through the property. We loved the mixed sounds of the cows, birds, and seals. The trails to the ocean are pretty, but steep and slippery in some places. Particularly steep sections have stairs. There is also plenty of poison oak, so stay on the trails and bring your Technu. Both the road and the trails were too hilly for my mobility-impaired mother. Sedentary people might find the trails strenuous but they are easily navigabl

The house is amazing and the views are awesome. Last year the weather was sunny and warm, we were able to walk to the beach and enjoy the sun. This year the rain brought floods and we played board games by the fire. While the experiences were different they were both very enjoyable. Plan on seeing me every February!

  Bodega Bay Escapes is really great in that you do have a number to call and a real person answers. It was a busy holiday week and so we had a full house and more garbage than expected. The staff came the same day we called to pick up extra recycling and garbage and also brought us some towels for the hot tub. The house was a bit understocked in terms of beach and hot tub towels and extra pillows. The loft sofa beds have seen better days, so not really a good sleeping area. A very well stocked kitchen and comfy living area and outside. The location was lovely for views but not the easiest for hiking to the beach for all ages, a little tough and steep. Very fun game room!

  Large house and nicely equipped kitchen. The home furnishings are worn, some in very poor shape, even beyond what you would expect in a vacation rental. The master bedroom mattress is terrible. Sleeping on the ground would be more comfortable. Lot of the chairs have stains. Some of the downtair chairs you could not sit on, the bottoms were worn through. This house has a lot of potential, it just needs some attention and TLC - the owner should replace mattresses when they get this bad. We had a good overall stay, we love the area.

  Tracie M from Rohnert Park, CA recommends this vacation rental

  Osprey retreat was the perfect house for our family getaway. There was plenty of room for the eight of us. It was nicely furnished and stocked. One complaint I have was the pots and pans. There were way too many crammed into the cupboards, they were low quality, and some were filthy. We wound up selecting a few for the weekend, washing them and leaving them on the stove top for use throughout the weekend. Rental agencies would do well to provide decent cookware, and assure it is clean and organized. Two nice and complete sets of pots and pans, a couple of cookie sheets, cake pan, that is all you need. The housekeepers can then make sure the cupboards and cookeware are clean and organized for each new renter. It was such a turn off to pull out a pan that was dirty and gross.
  The cookware here looked as though it had not been culled for 20 years, it was mismatched, dented, rusted, with finishes coming off the inside of the pots.
  
  There were nice touches elsewhere, hand soap at every sink, Laundry soap provided, foil and plastic wrap, etc. Bodega bay Escapes could be a notch above other vacation rentals if they dealt with the pots and pans.

  Property as depicted on the website - no surprises when it came to furniture, layout or amentities. Kitchen is well stocked including some quality cookwear that survives usage by many users. Loved the views, beach access and the enclosed hot tub. The management staff was quite professional and typically responsive. A few recommendations such as spot clean the carpet, improve heating the lower level and add more band width to the wi-fi. This was a working getaway and we ony survived by relying on a personal hotspot because the house wi-fi was extremely unreliable which complicated virtual meetings and project deliverables. Overall, all agreed we would happily return to this property.

  We arrived at dinnertime, so I was in a hurry to get started making supper for my hungry family... We immediately discovered there was no hand soap or dish soap in the kitchen. Took us a while to find some hand soap in another bathroom, but had to wait till after dinner to go into town to buy some dish soap.
  The next morning, everyone took cold showers. And there was no soap available in the bathrooms. This is the first time in our rental experiences that any kind of soap was not available. No one complained too loudly, but there had been no written directions that the water heater was turned off & where to find it & how to turn it on, etc. of course, my husband went searching & got it fixed. But it would have been nice to know before showers.
  Saturday morning, my husband had to log in online to work, and my college age daughter had to take an online test. Both had timed deadlines. There were no written directions for logging onto wireless internet, which was a little frustrating for both. Of course, they figured it out, just took a little longer, which was a bit stressful.
  Downstairs, there was a pool table that flipped over into an air hockey table. The kids could never fine the hockey pucks. But they did enjoy playing pool & skee ball.

  Osprey Retreat is a great home for our family retreat of 10 family members. There is plenty of room for all of us, including the loft for kids to sleep and play as their own space. Furniture is lovely throughout. We appreciate the bathroom addition, too! My only suggestion is to replace the dishwasher as it did not clean the dishes, replace the coffee maker as the heating plate is all worn, peelings and decrepid as is the teflon electric grill. We have stayed at Osprey over the years and it seems that there is less and less utensils, cooking pots & pans each time we visit. Thank you.

  I rented this house for a 60th birthday party for my father. We were a group of 8 and found the rooms comfortable. The house is a little dated, but the location and view of the beautiful hills and adjacent farm more that makes up for this. The wood burning stove's glass was broken, which made having a fire impossible. The management company was VERY helpful and sweet, and I found the entire process of renting the property easy and delightful. The skee ball table was really cool, but the scoring didn't work. It was still fun despite having to keep score manually. The previous renters left the outdoor furniture in weird places. We didn't end up spending much time on the downstairs patio, so no big deal. Overall, this place was great! I would absolutely recommend this place to others.
