Many guests comment on how clean the cottage is. We did even more during the pandemic and will continue to value the heath and safety of guests and housekeepers. We leave cleaning supplies and soaps so you can continue to wipe down and wash up as you have at home.

Currently, I offer a 3 night minimum with a max of 5 guests. Check in is 4pm and check out is 11am. Note: there is pet fee of $50 for one large dog or two small dogs.

Parking is very limited in Dillon Beach. The cement drive-way along the south side of the house will accommodate one SUV or two sedans parked front to back. Non reserved parking is allowed across the street along the cement retaining wall. I do expect guests who plan to charge their electric vehicle to let me know ahead of time. At this time I do not charge for the additional cost to the house electric bill.

Overnight guests are limited to 5 people.
A $50 pet fee is required when bring a pet or day guests bring a pet.

Great Ocean views from every room!

The 13th of Summer is a romantic get-away or a comfy family holiday cottage on the Marin/Sonoma coast. Be awed-
Dramatic views of the Pacific Ocean, waves rushing up the shore. Grand sunsets from hug picture windows or even better from the deck with a glass of wine!

It's just a short five minute stroll to the beach.

When not watching sunsets or the sea, guests can enjoy the household surroundings. The cottage is filled with original paintings and sculpture by local artists. No need to work at a wood burning fire. An environmentally conscience gas burning stove is romantic for that fire-wood stove look, warmth and ambiance. The energy efficient gas heater keeps the cottage cozy.

Take a nap; watch the waves.! The westerly living room has an extra long down filled sofa, huge soft chair w/ ottoman and oak rocker. Lots of lamps make reading and close work enjoyable. The view is wonderful. The easterly sitting area is a cozy conversation or media area and has an overstuffed chair with ottoman and love seat.

An induction range and a refrigerator are in the kitchen. From the sink is a view of the front garden and from the stove, the sea. ATT phone service includes the continental USA is in the kitchen and master bedroom. Mircrowave, blender, food processor, Kenmore mixer, rice cooker, stick blender, toaster

The master bedroom has a queen size bed, blue leather wingback chair and oak dresser. Reading the paper, drinking coffee, and watching birds scamper along the shore make staying tucked in under the down comforter a morning pleasure.

The knotty pine bedroom has a queen bed and twin bed, antique oak dresser and upholster high-back chair. When standing by the windows, the bay and Bodega Head can be enjoyed. Beach chairs and blanket are in this closet

Upstairs and between the two bedrooms is a half-bath with sink and toilet.

Downstairs is the full bath with shower, toilet, sink,and, of course, a great view of the ocean.

The deck provides a great area to relax with teak chaise lounges, table and chair for taking in the view. A cozy and comfortable dining area with the grand Pacific Ocean before you makes inside dining a delight.

The comfy cottage at 13 Summer will reward you with romance and relaxation!

Very homey, great porch view and close to beach
We really enjoyed it, including our 10 year old granddaughter. Lovely and welcoming owner. We hadn't realized it was on the ocean, rather than Tamales bay. Cool kite-surfers.

We LOVE our annual stay in Cherry's perfect, peaceful retreat. She is the best VRBO owner we have ever dealt with - she's more like a friend - and we are already looking forward to next year. The new induction stove and shower upgrades are a nice addition.

A fabulous jewel
I have stayed at this property multiple times and is my preferred rental spot at Dillon. Cherry offers an extremely well appointed kitchen with everything I need to cook, bake or BBQ. The views are fantastic and the beach, store and restaurant are a very short walk. I love this place!
