Green Cottage

I am a vacation rental, a charming vintage beach cottage sitting at the water’s edge on Morro Bay.

I am a romantic hide-away for two tucked away in a quiet residential area in Los Osos. I provide privacy, peaceful calm and water views that go on forever.

Sunset paddle from the Green Cottage on Morro Bay, a romantic waterfront vacation rental, perfect for two.

This wonderful photo is one of my favorites and is from the Cottage's neighbor who took the photo while paddling into the sunset.

Mornings Wrapped in Mist, Evenings in Gold: Peer here, soon!

Escape the neon blur of the city and step into a world where time slows down to the rhythm of the tides. Directly across from the Green Cottage's private deck, the historic Baywood Pier stretches out into the quiet waters, practically whispering an invitation to come explore.

Slip out in the morning mist for a casual stroll down the wooden planks, where a warm, local breakfast at the Nautical Bean (https://nbcentralcoast.com) or a lunch at the High Street Deli and the friendly faces of our tiny coastal community await you.

This isn't your crowded, tourist-heavy boardwalk. This is an authentic, hidden slice of the California coast, nestled gently on the edge of the glassy Morro Bay estuary. Instead of roaring surf and packed sand, you will find a peaceful, mirroring waterfront where herons glide across the sky and kayakers launch smoothly into the morning calm. It is a sanctuary built for shared silences, slow mornings, and catching some of the most breathtaking, unobstructed sunsets you will ever experience together.

SLOW DOWN AND EXPERIENCE A STUNNING SANCTUARY --

The best travel experiences cannot be bought; they are found in the quiet moments when the world stands still.

Walking along a completely deserted shoreline as the sun dips below the horizon is a soul-stirring experience. Without the distraction of crowds, the beach transforms into a private sanctuary of gold, blue, magenta, orange, and pink. It is a powerful reminder of how beautiful California's central coast can be when we simply slow down.

VISIT THE QUIET AND THE BEAUTIFUL

Step into a world where the horizon stretches wide and time slows down to the gentle rhythm of the earth.

We invite you to escape the rush of modern life, leave the crowded streets behind, and drive (or bike) down quiet country roads where the air is fresh and the views are endless.

Come see the weathered beauty of old barns that stand as silent storytellers of the past, and feel the deep, grounding peace that only wide-open spaces can bring.

California's central coast is more than just a destination; it is an opportunity to unplug, breathe deeply, and rediscover a simple, soulful connection to nature and history that restores the spirit.

THE WORLD'S ONLY COW-BEAR.......
Udderly Osa: Is it a cow or a bear? It's both!

She's real! She's part of the International Cow Parade public art program that has been staged in seventy-five cities/towns,.

The statue was part of Cow Parade SLO, where 101 life-sized, 120-pound fiberglass bovine-inspired works were installed around the Central Coast area.

This bear-themed cow harkens back to Los Osos’ name, which translates from Spanish as “The Bears.”

Visitors should note the wreath of Monarch Butterflies fluttering about the animal’s ears (a nod to the nearby Monarch Butterfly Preserve), California poppies growing around its rear haunches and the paddle and paddleboard incorporated into the design.

Sponsored by Visit Los Osos Baywood, she became an instant hit locally. Celebrate Los Osos fund raised to purchase her from the auction so she could remain in her home pastures and not end up in Newport or San Jose. And Baywood Park is where she remains.

Crafted by father-and-son team Dave and Kyle Doust, you can view this impressive creature at the Nautical Bean -- Back Bay Cafe, located at 1399 2nd Street in Los Osos.

Visit soon so you can brag you have seen, touched and been photographed by Udderly Osa, the world's only!!!

Just up the road from the Cottage -- a fabulous beach!

Hit the waves (or the sand) at Cayucos State Beach. With six miles of white sand beach that stretch to the famous Morro Rock, Cayucos State Beach starts in the charming seaside town of Cayucos and is one of the best in California for surfing, swimming, tidepooling, and soaking up the sun.

The beach boasts nearby parking, picnic facilities, outdoor showers and restrooms, as well as easy access. The Cayucos Pier was constructed in 1872 by Captain James Cass, and is a remnant from the days when Cayucos represented an important commercial port for ships sailing from Los Angeles to San Francisco. Rebuilt in 2015, the 982-foot pier remains a favorite spot for fishing, taking in epic Pacific Coast sunsets, and even whale-watching.

The population of Cayucos is about 3,000. Despite its small size, Cayucos has many restaurants that are destinations themselves.

Create memories, VISIT SOON!
