Would you enjoy the cozy pampered feeling of an inn but prefer the privacy, convenience and space of a home? Welcome to 'Bay Canyon View'. Our goal is to provide a relaxing stay in a beautiful environment with all the conveniences of home and more.

This beautifully remodeled coastal cutie is perfect for one or two couples (and comfortably sleeps 5 adults) who want to enjoy a comfortable and relaxing retreat. This spacious 1500 sq ft remodeled home has an open floor plan with unique tree captioned views of the the tip of north end of Bodega Bay (water is most visible from spa patio and bedroom). Bay View's decor is best described as sophisticated beach, with artwork from Sonoma Coast artists throughout the home! The home's layout allows you to visit with guests in the large updated kitchen, living/dining room, bar area, and sun room while enjoying the view of the trees surrounding the bay.

There are 2 beautifully decorated bedrooms, with queen size beds with heated mattresses. There is a spacious main bathroom with soaking tub/shower combo. private access from both bedrooms, a large granite vanity, and heated towel rack! A cozy double bed with a memory foam mattress provides additional space for an extra guest or two, and a great place to relax and enjoy the view or watch streaming movies on the 55 inch flat screen TV.

A second full bathroom, dressing area (for guests sleeping in main living area), and laundry is conveniently located off the main living space. This area also contains a large desk area with a handy electronics charging station and printer.

The 10 foot glass mosaic topped bar opens the spacious kitchen up to the 500 sq foot great room. It provides a fun place to sit and visit with the chef(s) in your group, while you enjoy a glass of Sonoma Coast wine. If you like to cook as a group this is the kitchen for you (large enough and with plenty of counter space for everyone to be cooking at the same time).

Relax in our enclosed sunroom that leads outside to the 450 square foot deck and large sunny wind-protected fully fenced yard. Here you will find patio furniture, a gas BBQ, garden with extra dining table, and newer Sundance spa with patio.

“Bay View” has a rare peek- a-boo view of the tip of the north end of Bodega Bay (through a valley captioned with redwoods and cypress trees) and the road to Bodega Head. The view changes constantly with boats heading out to sea during the day and returning home at night. In the evening the view is softly illuminated by fishing boats and local inns. On a clear night the sky is filled with stars to enjoy while relaxing in the spa.

Centrally located, the 'Bay View House' sits on ¼ acre at the north end of the town of Bodega Bay. Located close to the Ocean, the Bay, and Town our location provides convenience while still providing privacy and solitude. We are less than 5 minutes from almost everything Bodega Bay has to offer (ocean beaches, trails, restaurants & shops, wine tasting, horseback riding, charter boats, the bay, and Bodega Head for whale watching!

Bodega Trip
My family had a wonderful time staying here for a weekend getaway. Janice was always available for questions and even was accommodating to moving dates with no fees due to a bad storm during our original plans. The house was clean and fully furnished with everything we needed and more. Would go back again.

I love this house!
There are thousands of great things to say about this place so I will start with the most important. The owner/hostess truly cares and is so helpful, thoughtful and quick to respond. She has carefully put together a booklet for staying here which I recommend you read immediately upon arrival. It will save you countless questions and wondering how things work, she really has thought of everything. The bedrooms are beautiful the beds very comfortable. The bathrooms have everything you could need and so does the kitchen which is super well stocked including spices, coffee, tea, popcorn, so much more. I love the fireplace and the couch is cushy and supportive at the same time. There is tons of seating both inside and out so you can relax no matter the weather. I spent most of my awake time in the naturally heated sun porch or the hot tub. The views are phenomenal and the neighborhood quiet and tree filled. My dogs loved the fully fenced grass yard while I appreciated that the yard is sloped so even during an "atmospheric river" storm, no puddles or mud at all! I just piled some of my own dog towels on the sun porch floor and let them dry their paws before coming in, so easy. The driveway/parking area also had no mud or puddles (packed gravel,) is more than big enough for two and is circular so you don't have to back out. I was blessed to have been able to stay for 10 days so utilized the very efficient washer and dryer. We spent morning at the beach letting the dogs sniff.

Wonderful retreat
We had a magical time over new years 2023 at Bay View House. We love that we can bring our dog and she enjoyed the beautiful fenced backyard. The beds are very comfortable, kitchen well stocked and decor suits the home perfectly. The location is nice and quiet, located near an easy hiking trail that takes you to Salmon Creek and beach. Our son is an avid runner and ran a different trail daily, and afterwards relaxed in the awesome hot tub. The nights were mostly clear and the stars put on a fabulous show, like you could reach out and touch them. We highly recommend the house and look forward to future visits.

Great house in Bodega Bay for staycation.
We loved our stay at this place. Everything in house is in sync with Sea theme. Pillows, decorations, color schemes added to our relaxed vacation. The house has a huge backyard which our dog enjoyed as well. It was great for a staycation. Janice was very welcoming and always available. Will definitely come back for another stay.

About the host

Host profile image
Coming to the Sonoma Coast every year for the past 25 years I dreamed of someday calling this amazing area home. In 2004 I decided it was time to focus on my dream. So after watching the area real estate listings diligently for the next 7 years (for just the right fit) it finally happened . Christmas Eve 2010 we decided to pack up the dog and take a road trip to check out the home as soon as it was listed. It was in total disrepair from years of neglect. The outside of the house from the roof down was rotten. The inside was better, but required much work. I loved the layout and location of the home. I have always loved interior design and decorating in addition to any kind of DIY activities (both structural and creative)...and we decided to accept the challenge. 10 years of work and a lot of weekends later... The Bay View is a cozy coastal retreat. The home has given me a place to both be creative and relax while escaping the Sacramento Valley heat. It has been a true labor of love.

Why they chose this property

We love the Sonomoa Coast! When we found the Bay View House (in spite of its condition at the time) we fell in love with the convenient central location and the open floor plan that enables you to visit and enjoy the view from the entire living area. The house is just a few minutes from town and restaurants, the Sonoma Coast Beaches and Bodega Head (our favorite place to go) We also loved the large 1/4 acre yard (which we fenced in!) and of course the hillside peek-a-boo view of the bay that is framed by trees and a small valley (providing constant changing scenery, including night time activity of boats returning from sea). So many things close by (yet the location is peaceful): Within a few minutes are restaurants, trails, Bodega Bay, Bodega Head (whale watching), Bodega Habour Golf Course, Porto Bodega (charter boats), Chanslor Ranch (ocean view horseback rides), Doran Beach, and entrance to the beautiful Sonoma Coast State Park (comprised of 15 miles of sandy beaches). Getting to the beach or bayside is a 20-30 minute walk (3 minute drive). The Children’s Bell Tower, Coastal Prairie Trail to Salmon Creek Beach, and Bodega Dunes are also only a few minute walk from the house.

What makes this property unique

Large 1/4 acre fully fenced yard (a rarity at the coast). One of our favorite features was a pleasant surprise...the temperature/weather relative to the position of the home! Bay View is located in a micro-climate (known as the sun belt) which is often clear even when the coast and bay are foggy. Additionally, the position of the home allows the yard protection from the chilly ocean winds. The yard is often sunny, and the temperature can vary 10-20 degrees from the front to the back of the house! The sun heats the home through the large windows on chilly days!...But if it is too warm, simply open the front windows and the ocean breezes quickly cool the home. Eco-friendly heating and cooling! We often escape the fog banks, but are still close enough to hear the ocean waves and sea lions play in the distance in the evening.
