It was our 15th Annual Sisters' Weekend and the Coast of Dreams was our chosen destination. It exceeded everyone's expectations for location, beauty, comfort, and all the other necessary amenities required for a lovely, relaxing and carefree weekend away.

Three friends of 35 years spent a week of our getaway vacation at Coast of Dreams. Wonderful experience. Slept in the loft and listened as the surf lulled me to sleep. You won't be dissappointed. It was great and very homey.

The house is very nice...clean and comfy. The granddaughters had a great time in the cubby in the loft. Lots of books and movies to choose from and comfortable beds. A nice time was had by all! Thanks!

We just left Coast of Dreams after a week's vacation. This is by far the best vacation home we have stayed in. It's really clean and warm and inviting with all the amenities to make you feel at home. The views are beautiful and lots to do and places to eat out. We golfed, looked around the towns nearby and went to the wine country. Hopefully we will be able to go back next year and stay longer. We loved it!

We had another great week at Coast of Dreams. This was our second year at Millie's home and I must say we enjoyed it as much as we did last year. The grandkids loved the walk to the beach and would have been content to spend every moment there! Millie's house is beautifully decorated and has all the comforts of home. We hope to make more memories there in the coming years. Thanks Millie

I have a husband and two grown daughters with families of their own. We were all able to have a wonderful long weekend at the Coast of Dreams. We found the well stocked kitchen a wonderful surprise, and the rest of the house a perfect layout for three separate families. We loved the close proximity to the beach and town alike. One evening at sunset, we were at the beach and were treated to a large group of sea lions fishing right off shore!

Another year at the Coast of Dreams has come and gone...once again, way too fast! Staying at the Coast of Dreams is like coming home to a beautiful home and environment each year. There's so much to do in the area and to have such easy access to two beaches is wonderful! Even with the fog rolling in early a few evenings, we bundled up and enjoyed watching all the wildlife in the water and on the beach. This year we took full advantage of both beaches, the private hot tub, the cozy fireplace, plus took day trips up and down the coast, enjoying every minute of our stay. Thanks Millie for opening up your home to us so we could have a simply fantastic vacation and a wonderful home to stay in while we were there.

Our family of 5 had a fantastic time during our stay at 'Coast of Dreams', (Jun 09) and felt it was like a home from home, with well stocked kitchen, extensive DVD collection, guide books, games, everything we needed and more! The cool evenings were very enjoyable with the hot tub & cosy wood stove. Watching the sunset from the upstairs bed was delightful each evening.
The location was great for exploring both the lovely Sonoma beaches and the wine country.
Milly was very helpful providing us with useful tips beforehand to make our stay more enjoyable.

We would definitely recommend this rental to any of our friends!

What a wonderful weekend away! Plenty of room for 4 kids (teenagers)-the boys claimed the loft right away, us and the dog. The house was very clean and well stocked. We can't wait to come back.

We had a wonderful stay over a long weekend in May. Everyone (especially the dogs) enjoyed the beach, just a short walk away. The layout of the house was great - we could put the toddler to bed downstairs and the adults could stay up talking late upstairs without waking her. Thanks so much.

We had the pleasure of staying at the Coast of Dreams for 4 nights in May. The house was very clean and comfortable, and well equipped with all the ammenities of home. The neighborhood is lovely, very well maintained and we felt safe with the little security car passing by daily! I would highly recommend this rental and would go back myself if I am ever in the area again. Mills was very professional to deal with and has created a homey space for her guests. The only bad part was that we had to leave too soon!

What a wonderful home for our vacation! The house has a great layout, with a large central area but also with plenty of separation of space. The kitchen is large and well-equipped; what a plus for us cooks. The beds are very comfortable, as well! Thanks again~

My family had a "girly" family reunion at this wonderful house. 4 generations from 70 years old to 5 months old. The house was all we could have wished for and more! The table was large enough for all to enjoy family meals and the sitting area lent itself well to lots of game playing. The wonderful private beach area was a close walk and the views from the house were incredible. We love to cook and the kitchen had everything we could have needed and then some. We had a wonderful time and look forward to returning.

We loved this house! The neighborhood is quiet, the landscaping interesting, and the views are lovely. The back deck provides shelter from the sea breezes and the hot tub is located on a separate more private deck. The wood stove is easy to light and cheerful to watch. The nearby beach is long and great for walks. We certainly recommend a visit here.

My daughters and I just spent a really enjoyable weekend at Coast of Dreams. The house is very comfortable and easily accomodated all 5 of us. You need not take much there because "everything" is provided.

Our weekend's weather was very stormy but that only added to our enjoyment. It's a very cozy place to get "shelter from the storm" with a very efficient wood burning stove and a truly vast DVD collection. We cooked all of our meals in and everything we needed to do so was provided.

The setting is beautiful with views out of all windows of the sea, the rolling hills and the golf course.

You will not be disappointed.

WOW!!! What a wonderful place you have. I received major kudos from my family for finding your place for our visit with our Sonoma State daughter. It is nice to see someone who shares their entire house and nothing is locked up. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and all of the personal touches in your house. My wife Cindy particularly enjoyed the plant life as she is an avid gardener. We dined at Rocker Oysterfellers - very good - and The Tides also good. Also, lucked out on the weather sunny and no winds.

Our week at Coast of Dreams turned out to be MUCH more than we expected or could have hoped for. This is not simply a "rental", it is someone sharing their home and all the good feelings that come with that.
We will be back. thanks so much.

Having our children and grandchildren join us from the Midwest for a few days at 'Coast of Dreams' was a delight. The house is perfect for a good size family group and the children loved the 'loft' space with it's cubbyhole play area. We all had fun in the hot tub after tide pooling and walks on the beach. Thank you, Millie!!

Coast of Dreams was an amazing place to stay. The views from the decks and windows overlooked the bay and ocean. You could hear hear the seals in the evenings which was really awesome. I loved walking the trails down to the beach. Lovely flowers, plants, views, as well as seeing the quails, deer, birds, and other wildlife.

The house was really lovely and very comfortable. Mills has put a lot of thought and detail into the house We were blown away by the spectacular views of the ocean and surrounding hills.

The location is perfect for sightseeing or just walking along the beach. The access to the amazingly beautiful beach is just a short walk from the house. It is very secluded and quiet.

It was a dream vacation.

"Coast of Dreams" was everything that the website said it would be, and then some!! Millie was extremely gracious in all of our correspondance, and very prompt in answering questions, and returning security deposit. All very much appreciated! The house was well furnished and very clean (kitchen & pantry were exceptionally well stocked). We felt like honored guests and hope to return again soon.

We just returned from the Coast of Dreams house
in Bodega Bay after celebrating our daughter's (and
last child's!) graduation from college. As my sister
said, the house has wonderful feng shue--the
layout is perfect for a large group and it is elegant,
but relaxed decor--my daughter said it is
undoubtedly one of the best weekends of her life.
Such a perfect setting for a celebration. Thanks so
much.

We spent a wonderful long weekend at this house last summer. It was a thank you to my parents for all the ways they help us out with their love, support, babysitting etc. We really had a wonderful time with out three kids, our shelti and our folks. Just a few weeks ago, my mother passed away unexpectedly. I cannot tell you how much we treasure the memories of our last beach trip... she loved the house and we plan to venture back as soon as we can to revisit those memories and our beautiful mom. Thank you for providing such a wonderful home to spend time together in.

With love...

Four of us went for my husband and I 20 Wedding Anniversary. We had a great time. The house was just fantastic. My husband was so amazed that he saw a HUGE Jack rabbit in the back. The house was everything plus more than I expected. The weather was a bit to chilly for us, but we had plenty of wine to keep us warm.
Thanks Millie, I will tell my friends about your great property.

We had a spectacular time!!! Beautiful weather. This home was perfect. We had 3 couples (plus Katie, the Sheltie) and there was plenty of space and privacy for all of us. We immediately felt at home when we arrived. Easy access to the beaches. Great places for strolling. Millie was a joy to work with and made sure we were always in contact so there were no surprises. We're looking forward for returning again soon. Thanks for sharing your home with us, Millie!!

Thank you for such a wonderful visit to the lovely Bodega coast. Even in the middle of winter, the weather was lovely and we enjoyed walking down to the beach every day. Such a lovely house! Great floor plan, extremely well equipped kitchen and I particularly enjoyed the patio with the gorgeous succulent garden. We will definitely visit again ;)

We had a lovely time at the Coast of Dreams. The layout of the home is terrific, with a loft bedroom and 2 totally separate bedrooms on a lower level. There is much privacy and the home is very light and airy. Our dogs had a terrific time at the beach, there are several access points - each one providing 5 to 10 minute walk to the surf. I would recommend it highly.

We had a wonderful time. The weather cooperated much to our surprise. We enjoyed the beach all to ourselves for 2 days. 3rd day we enjoyed going to all the surrounding shops here, Bodega and Occidental. The Hot tub was very enjoyable. We all loved the house.

We had sunshine and beach walks and now a rain storm. A perfect place for all seasons. Thank you for sharing and renting this respite and place of renewal. The house is so designed that everyone had a space. It was just wonderful. The vibrations in this house are so mellow it makes getting away a really nice experience. The decorations are so sweet that almost everywhere you look, makes you smile. Thanks for sharing this wonderful home.
