We had a wonderful week-end here. Walking into
this beautiful home we immediately relaxed. It was
so comfortable and offered everything we needed.
The large bay windows led to gorgeous views of the
water, we felt like we were the only people in
Bodega Bay. We enjoyed dining together at the
large table while watching the sunset. Our son
loved waking up, looking out the window and
seeing the sunrise. Wonderful getaway!!! |

| The house was charming and spacious and the view was amazing! To see the waves crashing on the rocks first thing in the morning was breath taking and the girls and I loved how close the house was to the beach. There was plenty of towels, blankets, et cetera and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay. |

We all had a great time at Crow's nest .
We loved the front of the house where we would grill into the wee hours of the night . No neighbours to disturb or get disturbed . The house was very clean and the beds comfortable . The owner Mia was very friendly and went out of her way for any request. |

This was a trip we will never forget! The house is huge, there were 8 of us and we never felt cramped. The view is incredible and we loved the garden and hummingbirds.
In the mornings it was so wonderful to sit and look out the window across the pasture and all the way to the ocean, all while being entertained by deer, quail and all kinds of birds.
We had everything we needed and the downstairs bed and shower were my personal favorite, next to the view.
It was an easy walk to the beach where we found a starfish and tons of shells.
Thanks for such a wonderful home away from home. The Whapham's |

| We had the perfect wedding weekend at Crows Nest! Comfortably slept all 10 of us and was great for large gatherings. The house was secluded and private while still allowing for spectacular ocean and hillside views. We walked to the beach in the morning and the lawn was great for an afternoon of wiffle ball. After sunset we watched the moon rise over the hills and gazed at the stars from the deck and patio. The owner was so friendly and helpful; she made all the arrangements painless. I highly recommend staying at Crows Nest! |

Our group of friends stayed here for the 2nd weekend of July 2009 and the house was really nice. The weather was wonderful, with light breezes, but with beautiful clear blue sky, just like in the picture. The picture is not exaggerating. And many of our members fell in love with the sunset and ocean view from the house. Though sunset was short, it is still beautiful. The walk to the beach was very close, and I made people walk to get a little exercise.
Mia, the owner, is really nice and very helpful in every way. I had so many questions and she put every effort to answer each one. She even took time to search for a nearby church for us, no owner I've rented from so far did that. Her hospitality is beyond what you can get anywhere else. Everyone who came there had a wonderful time at the house and view. And as a event planner, I am certain to claim that you can never find a better owner than Mia. Thank you Mia for sharing your wonderful home with us. I hope you all enjoyed your stay here as much as we did.
Best Regards with much Appreciation,

| Four of us had a delightful art retreat weekend at the house and Mia was most accommodating and responsive to our questions. We hope we can reschedule another art weekend soon. |

| We had a delightful time at the Crow's Nest this past Memorial Day holiday! The house very comfortably accommadated myself and husband and 6 adult children....plus our 3 schnauzers! With panaromic views of the ocean, wild turkeys and deer, a pasture full of grazing cows just yards from the master bedroom's floor to ceiling windows, an easy walk down to the beach....it was a memorable weekend! Being able to bring our dogs made the weekend even more special for us! We definitely would rent this house again. Thank you! Nancy |

| This home is ideal for 4 couples. The kitchen is more than adequately furnished as well as is the rest of the home. The Crows Nest has three sitting areas which is nice if one wants to be by oneself to read or take a nap. The first thing you see upon walking in the front door are the huge windows that look out to the ocean. You feel at home the minute you walk in the front door. |

The owner's description is not exaggerated. The grounds are beautiful, and the house was as clean as a hotel, but comfortable as our own home. I've rented several vacation properties, but none as fully furnished and outfitted as this one.
Owners are very quick to respond to any request and/or address any problem: we had trouble with the CD player; temperamental oven; etc.
We had a wonderful stay and would definitely consider coming back. |

A Perfect Stay at the Crows Nest at Bodega Bay!
This March five lady friends and I had the good fortune to come across the Crows Nest on VRBO. From the first time I spoke with Mia Jampolsky the owner, to the moment we had to say goodbye to her lovely hideaway perched above the Pacific Ocean, it was an effortless and most memorable experience. From every window in the huge house we had panoramic views of the ocean, beautiful hills and expansive fields complete with grazing cows and curious deer. The home, which is close to many activities, is very private and comfortable so we were content to stay tucked away, relax, eat, laugh and take in the view. It was the perfect choice for our annual reunion and I would recommend the Crows Nest to anyone looking for an unforgettable get-away at a great value.

| We left our hearts at the Crow's Nest. We are city girls with city jobs and we just loved our get away to the Crow's Nest! It is only an hour and half drive away from SF. We were instantly relaxed with the 3 fireplaces, views, and fresh air. The beds are extremely comfortable! We cooked in house and there is a lovely dining room table next to a wood burning stove. We drove to town to the marina to buy fresh cleaned crabs from Spud Point Crab company. A must do during crab season. Don’t forget to tip the ladies for cleaning the crab. We would like to come back and enjoy the courtyard when the weather is better. We can’t wait to come back to our new retreat home. Thank you Mia and Mike! |

| we stayed in this wonderful home the weekend before christmas 2008 with our family of seven plus patti's parents and aunt. all of us loved the comfy rooms, beds, and furniture and the outstanding ocean and pastureland views from the floor to ceiling windows downstairs. the christmas tree and decorations were perfect, too. it was mostly a cold and rainy weekend and we sat by the two woodstoves and enjoyed our fires and playing scrabble while we watched the drizzly rain outside and the deer, birds and fat siamese cat hunting outside. the fenced in yard was great for grilling lunch and sitting in the sun with our dog. overall, the house had plenty of linens and tables/chairs and cozy places to sit. our teen sons loved to hang out in the loft and appreciated having internet access. we took walks down to portuguese beach also. mia was wonderful in helping us take care of questions, too. we will be back! |

| The Crows Nest was the perfect place to stay for our "Girls" week. We enjoyed watching the deer and cattle grazing in the nearby fields and walking along the beautiful beaches. The house was so comphy and roomy and very welcoming after a day of sight-seeing. We loved our stay at the Crows Nest! |
