The Treetop House Pet Friendly

We have been staying in Cambria for 26 years. This house is our favorite and to prove it, we stayed here for the second time
in a row! The cabin setup makes it truly feel like a cabin in the woods on the beach! The fire pit is safely set up with a grill across the top like fire code restrictions requires to allow a fire to enjoy in the cool
evenings. The wrap around balconies with seating provides an amazing view of the ocean to hear the sea birds and seals nearby, see the forest, and enjoy a morning cup of coffee in the beautiful Cambria country. A block away from a hiking trail through what we call the “Enchanted Forest” where you can see the fog rolling in through the trees in the evening and enjoy the giant pinecones, amazing twisted and exotic looking trees, enjoy the foliage including wild blackberries, roses, and wooden hand made benches along the way. Down the hill that can be hiked or walked to, there is another coastal hiking trails with amazing views of the ocean, seals, and seabirds. Also there you can find the most amazing tidepooling and small private beaches to enjoy. The house includes an old fashioned wood burning stove fireplace to cozy up to on cold evenings, TVs in the bedroom and livingroom, bunkbeds, king bed, and a pull out couch bed on the upper level. The lower level is a separate unit for privacy and has a queen bed. All the beds are very comfortable and we sleep better in this house than we do at home. The kitchen is open and arranged perfectly so that everything is close for productivity. Lots of storage in pantry, closets, so plenty of space to put things aways so it feels tidy. All hard wood or tile flooring so its easy to clean up. Neighbors are wonderful! Both last year and this year, my husband went out to help one of the neighbors to carry something they were trying to carry that looked too heavy for them and both times we were thanked with gifts. Super amazingly nice people all over Cambria in general!!

Our extended family came to Cambria for the Memorial Day weekend and rented the Treetop House and another house nearby to accommodate everyone. We really enjoyed this house for its location, ocean view, rustic interior, and its large fenced backyard. Grandparents appreciated the lower-level private suite to stay in. Grandkids liked the bunk beds and they played in the loft area. Main beds were very comfortable with well-appointed bedding. We liked and used the backyard firepit area although we needed to get our own wood. The appliances are older particularly the dishwasher whose interior is stained. The steps up to the front door are poorly lit at night, potential falling hazard. Flashlights are needed to see the way up and down.

Our trip to Cambria was a gathering of friends being able to stay in one place together. The drive to the property is not far from Cambria village, although a realty company is the one you are dealing with, not the owners. This means you’ll have to do a pit stop to retrieve the keys before going to the house & then dropping them off at the realty company upon leaving.

The place is spacious and relatively well equipped. The kitchen has little counter space which meant that really only 2 people could be working there at a time. This area could use better lighting, it did have a skylight as well as some overhead lights off of the skylight. Speaking of lighting: the stairs definitely need better lighting approaching the upstairs outside, as well as heading to the fire pit in the evening. It’s easy to trip and fall over roots etc. in the back.

We basically hung around the ample dining table when we were at the house.

A step ladder should be available because it was difficult to reach items in the kitchen cabinets that were up high. They also need to replace the coffee maker with one that brews coffee in less that 25 minutes. The toilet roll dispenser probably should be a stand alone because the reach to it (for someone who has back issues) is a strain.

There is a lot of bedding and other items if needed.

Another issue was the carbon monoxide detector was beeping in the downstairs bedroom. Speaking of the downstairs bedroom: I don’t think we were aware that it is a separate entity, which is great if that’s what you want. We didn’t use the loft at all, but that too is a great space to get away.

Just a couple more issues:
We found both bedroom doors to the outside were not locked.
An ice machine would be nice.
The welcome binder is falling apart.
And the big one: the flag was in tatters and one of the guys removed it because we didn’t want the owners

Nothing to complain about. A very nice house, comfortable beds, amenities galore.

Location near Fiscalini Ranch was great and the house overall was very nice. However, for the price we were disappointed with the smaller things/furnishings - cheap cutlery and kitchen utensils, towels, only one wash cloth for two people, no soap in the shower.

The home was clean and comfortable. Great location with walking trails just outside. Very short drive to town and other attractions.

This is a fantastic house for a family gathering with ample space for everyone. Great ocean view from the balcony at sunset. Play space in the backyard for young kids. Easy to get to and close to town. Check in and out was seamless!

A great place to stay for a weekend with friends! The house was warm and inviting. It was a very well maintained home with everything we needed for a cozy stay. We saw a deer grazing across the street and enjoyed the wood burning fireplace each evening. The views from the property were beautiful. I'd definitely stay here again.

I Love the house and yard, great for our vacation. Absolute beautiful location and a ocean view from the Living room deck. A few things that may be difficult for some people are all the stairs and no baby proofing. The studio is down stairs but to reach the main house you have to climb a flight of stairs. Both those stairs and the stairs to the loft inside the house have no gate which can be scary for young children. Also the window in the loft has no screen and opens fully. I did not realize it till my child went to open it. The yard is fully fenced in and large. It was great for my children to play in. Also the shed in the back was full of toys which my children loved. This house is perfect for family trips. Just people with no mobility issues and older children who can safely navigate stairs.

Pleasant property, good location

Everything was wonderful at this house. I would highly recommend due to the spacious house area and beautiful yard. My only recommendation would be a little more furniture downstairs...but it is a great set up with the granny unit. Great view and close proximity to ocean and Fiscalini Ranch.

We were guests of the Treetop House in November 2021, and were really pleased with the house and property. It’s not mentioned in the listing, but through the trees is an ocean view! That was a lovely surprise. The bedding was extremely comfortable and high quality, the extra living space on the lower level was perfect for the pregnant couple in our party. We didn’t do any complex cooking, but did grill out on the porch, and found everything we needed provided for in the kitchen (the tableware was plentiful and lovely). The property inside and out has a warm, woodsy feel. We would have loved to use the outdoor firepit if we stayed longer, but found ourselves cozied by the indoor woodburning fireplace each evening after our outings in and around the Cambria area.

A couple easy tweaks needed — there wasn’t enough furniture to fit our party of 5 in the living room (the couch seats 4 max), so a love seat and reading chair would be a needed addition. Also, the lighting was really terrible in the main space—harsh white light above the dining table, and several table lamps are needed in the living room area. Many lights were also burned out. Luckily, we were able to supplement by bringing lamps in from the bedrooms, with some lighting we had brought and that fixed the ambience. If those tweaks were made to furniture and lighting, I would give it 5 stars. :)

Check in and check out was easy. Thank you so much for the wonderful stay!

This is a great location for a coastal getaway. The home is clean, with updates throughout, in wonderful condition, especially compared to other rentals in the area. The location is quiet and serene. We enjoyed having brunches on the deck and roasting marshmallows on the fire pit in the evenings. Huge plus - the place is walking distance to the beach and if you are as lucky as we were, you can spot dolphins and seals.

We stayed with one other family, so the place can fit 4 adults and 4 kids. Good location, all the amenities you need are there. The mattresses, bedding and linens made me rethink my own. Would love to come back!
