2 Bedroom Cottage in Baywood-Los Osos, Los Osos
Are you seeking an authentic experience, one that gives you the true sense of a place — where you feel at home, as if you’ve always belonged?
The Green Cottage has water views that go on forever! It is a vintage beach house that sits at the water’s edge at the southern end of Morro Bay, on California’s Central Coast. It is a romantic vacation rental for two, beautifully refurbished and filled with art, antiques and hand-made quilts. It offers comfort, privacy, solitude and views that go on forever.
It is the perfect hideaway at the end of a small peninsula tucked away in a quiet residential area of Los Osos. Our part of California is off the beaten path and we like it that way. We live our lives a little slower than the rest of the world. That gives us time to see more of what there is to see and to experience more of the things that are authentic and meaningful — all far, far away from fast-paced big-city lives.
There is something here that evokes reminiscent images of days gone by. Ice cream shops, a famous cookie company, boardwalks, local cafés only locals know about, wineries, art galleries, saloons, hiking trails and deserted beaches perfect for long walks and collecting shells.
Originally a fisherman’s cottage from early 1900s, the Green Cottage has old world charm with today’s comforts. It features the most sought-after attractions in our area: privacy, unobstructed views of Morro Bay, Morro Rock, Baywood Park, and the mountains beyond. This single-story, cozy cottage is irresistibly charming, with emphasis on comfort and view. It provides you with the opportunity to immerse yourself in nature, in romance — here in “the middle kingdom” as National Geographic once called this region of California. It is a natural escape, a refuge and home base for exploring the beautiful Central Coast and all it has to offer.
The Cottage features an open plan interior with an eclectic style of décor, including contemporary and vintage pieces, with the addition of family heirlooms to add just the right amount of coziness and comfort. Step inside and make a cup of tea or cook a gourmet meal in the fully-equipped kitchen to enjoy by candlelight or under the stars on the Cottage deck. Curl up with a good book in the corner reading nook, peruse the original art on the walls, and discover handmade baskets and carvings from Africa, the South Seas, and local Native Americans. Enjoy a glass of award-winning Central Coast wine as you sit quietly on the deck and watch the pelicans, herons, snowy plovers, egrets and peregrine falcons while the sun slips silently into the horizon. At day's end, snuggle into the comfy bed for a restful, relaxed sleep.
The main room includes a king-size premium bed with a handmade quilt and pillow shams.
Beyond is the seating/living area. Your eyes will follow the light, past the breakfast bar to the kitchen/dining area and to the water beyond. You will notice the Cottage gleams in spotless silence, which accounts for 337 5-Star reviews, 6 4-star and 3 3-star reviews (VRBO, plus two other platforms). Off to the side is a separate area — the “Quiet Room” — with a single bed, dressing area, closets and dressers. The bathroom has a separate entrance off the living area. The pantry, off the kitchen has cooking supplies and a European-style washer/dryer.
When you step out onto the deck — be warned — you will not want to leave. There you can sit for hours with your coffee or glass of wine and look down along the shoreline, across the bay to Morro Rock, to the sand dunes and the surrounding mountains.
If you want to connect with the outside world, we make it easy with fast free Wi-Fi. But we suggest making contact on a more personal level by taking a walk along the water and seeing where life takes you. In that way, the Cottage becomes your inspirational refuge.
Whether you are looking for action, adventure, peace, solitude or romance, the Green Cottage offers you a ‘road less traveled’ experience that you will want to return to again and again.
337 Five-Star Reviews!
We love that our visitors say wonderful things about the Cottage. That says a lot about the Cottage, but even more about our guests.
We know that people read reviews because these 3rd party opinions help you make your travel decisions. The words of past guests, in a way, become the essential social proof required that the Green Cottage is worth your time and money. We work hard to earn and keep that trust.
We also know that it’s not just the 5-Star review that is important to you, but how many there are over a long period of time. That’s why we are so very proud of our 337 5-Star reviews and 2 4-Star reviews, since 2009.
VRBO/Homeaway: 241 5-Stars, 2 4-Stars.
Platform#1: 67 5-Star reviews.
