    a guest from Los Banos, CA recommends this vacation rental

    We love the layout and location of this beautiful beachfront home. The courtyard is a big plus. The deck is nice and roomy. The location is far enough from the public beach access that we do not have lots of people setting up for the day in front of the home. This is our 3rd stay at this property. This year, we found the kitchen to be seriously lacking - there was only 1 potholder, and 3 kitchen towels. Some basic cookware and utensils are in real need of replacement.
    The house has windows across the front as well as many sliders - ALL of the windows were very dirty. There were smudges, handprints, finger drawings, water splatters, etc. They had not been cleaned, or even wiped in a very long time.
    We love the layout of the house, the location cannot be beat, but the house should be clean and better equipped.
    We will be back - the folks at Cheshire are always helpful and friendly both on the phone and in person.

    Our first experience with this beach house and we were very pleased. This beach house has an awesome view through the front windows as soon as you enter. The front deck is nice and wide with an overhang that provides shade for most of the day. There is a large table that seats 8 to 10 people comfortably that is nice for family get togethers. Interior atrium provides shade during hottest part of the day and provides shade while barbecuing dinner. Overall great experience with the house, the location and the property management staff. We will be back next year.

    a guest from Sacramento, CA does not recommend this vacation rental.

    We were told in advance that the refrigerator was broken and a small loaner was there. Despite many phone calls, the refrigerator was not fixed until Wednesday so we had to use our ice chests and buy ice every day to keep our food cold. During our stay, the dishwasher also had to be repaired, and there were ants in the kitchen. The property was not in very good condition although we did enjoy the location and our family time. I would not rent this location again.

    Bob F from San Leandro, CA recommends this vacation rental

    The rental was clean and spacious, the employees are friendly and helpful, the location is perfect, and the view is wonderful! We totally enjoyed our stay, but dogs are not allowed which is very difficult for us. We have a 4 year old Shih Tzu dog, he has hair and not fur so she does not shed, the trip would be so much more enjoyable if our dog could be with us!

    Have been utilizing Cheshire for 20+ years. Terrific always. This property while terrific in location is just a bit tired in relation to condition. Flooring and window coverings were tired and a bit too dusty relating to allergies for me personally.
    The experience served our family well and we came away grateful as always...

    Jeanne G from Gilory, CA recommends this vacation rental

    This was our first stay at 642 Beach Drive. The location was just perfect for our family, 3 generations from 2 to 65. The house was very comfortable, beautiful ocean views. The inner courtyard was also beautiful, and a safe secure place especially when staying with small children. We lucked out with beautiful warm weather, and are hoping to make this an annual stay for our family.

    Our stay was very enjoyable, the ocean view and beach access is just the best! The weather could have been a little better, but still beautiful. Broken gas fireplace should be fixed or replaced, the deck plug outlet does not work, some areas of the house could be cleaner, some papers under couch in front room, but other than these few items the rental was lovely.

    Our 2nd family reunion was, overall, great. Last year we stayed at a long-time familiar rental, 623 Beach. This year we opted to pay more to have more space and to be right on the beach. It was well worth it!
