Miwok Escape

We had a wonderful stay at Miwok Escapes. The house is very clean, spacious and light, with a beautiful well-appointed kitchen. We enjoyed watching the deer and quail go by and on a clear evening the sunsets are spectacular. It’s a quiet peaceful setting prefect for star-gazing from the upper deck. We love that we could bring our dog too.

Our family had an amazing time over the weekend. The upstairs has a view of the ocean. We loved relaxing in the hot tub and the short walk to the beach. The home is extremely well maintained. We will be back.

This house was great and beyond our expectations! The kitchen is fully equipped so don’t bother bringing anything but your food and any special spices. The appliances were top quality and has all essential small appliances. The bedrooms were comfy and the entire house was very clean. It’s great for your dog too with a place for them to potty. The living area is very comfortable and spacious. Great windows and in a quiet residential area. Bring your own food because groceries stores are limited. Overall we would go back to this great escape!

We brought our kids and grandkids. Miwok is perfect for this, the kids had lots of room to play and the adults could enjoy eBay others company.

We (grandparents, kids, grandkids)had a good stay in Miwok Escape. The house was laid out well for our family. Master bed and bath are very nice, as is the great room. Salmon Creek location is great with good walking or driving access to the beaches.

This home is very well appointed. Clean and inviting. Already planning our next stay!

First and foremost, we enjoyed our stay at Miwok Escape and look forward to renting it again in the future. We endorse the house and the property management company as it pertains to this visit. Upon arrival, we found the Miwok Escape house to match the online description of it, which is good, no surprises. Overall, the house was clean and had everything we needed for our cooking needs in the kitchen. The hot tub felt warm and was working, but we didn't use it as we had a pretty busy schedule otherwise. One thing I would call out is that the upstairs bathroom did not have any shades or shutters in the bathroom. Maybe the windows have protective reflection on the outside, but it may be unsettling for some people to be stepping into a shower when you can look out the window from the shower and see neighbor's houses directly and not be able to close a blind or shutter. To be clear, the neighbors would need to be using a scope or camera to really see details, but I am mentioning this nonetheless as fyi. One other item is that the two downstairs rooms may not be tied to the heater system. The property management or owner could correct me if I am wrong, but we didn't find a thermostat for downstairs. We ran the heater from the thermostat upstairs, and the upstairs stayed at the temperature as set, but the downstairs remained cooler. This was not a factor into the enjoyment of our visit, as the members of our trip staying in the downstairs were plenty warm in their beds with the covers provided. However, when it was non-sleeping time, we mostly were all together upstairs in the heated area by choice, not due to temperature. So, it wasn't an impact to us. Also, I did see some plug-in space heaters downstairs in the closets. In closing, and as I started this review out with, we were very happy with the house and with the property management company, and we would not hesitate to rent this again. And, if you like wildlife, we saw deer and quail from the porch.

This house is a short walk to the beach in a pretty secluded area. The house itself is well appointed but a little dated. The dishwasher leaks, the refrigerator leaks and the outside trash was full when we arrived. It's great if you want to spend a lot of time relaxing in the hot tub and cooking because Bodega Bay doesn't have many restaurants that are open for dinner, but you will have to do all your dishes by hand. If you bring your dog to this house you will have to drive to a beach you can take them to. Also being instructed to strip the sheets from the beds upon departure when charging a $265 cleaning fee seemed a bit excessive.

The house was very spacious, had a lot of areas for socializing. the rooms were of good size & comfortable.The kitchen was fully loaded. Couple of things that weren't quite up to par the wood stove there was wood but no kidding or any way to start a fire. The hot tub is getting kind of old and the Jets weren't very powerful, a set of four Jets hardly worked at all but other than that, it was a perfect stay.

Loved the home and location!! A nice little walk to the beach. The home had amazing views. We truly enjoyed listening to the ocean all night long. The home was beautiful and had all we needed. Can’t wait to come back!

This home made for a great few days for my card making friend and myself. This is our fourth year of renting with Bodega Bay Escapes and we were so pleased with this home that we are renting it again for next year. It has everything. The kitchen had every appliance one would ever need. We did have trouble getting the oven up to temp and eventually gave up after several tries. Miwok Escapes offered much space and counters for us to spread out and enjoy crafting. The deck off of the main area upstairs is perfect for respite and one could hear waves breaking. The staff at Bodega Bay Escapes met and responded to our every need. They are super. We look forward to another fun and fabulous time next year at this beautifully maintained home and commend the owners and everyone at Bodega Bay Escapes involved!

Starting in the year of Covid, this was our sixth stay at this delightful dwelling. A superb location within a short walk to beach, it is nestled in the sand dunes, with a plethora of windows to see wonderful scenery and has many skylights to brighten a lovely interior. Well managed and maintained it is our favorite rental on this stretch of the coast, so much so we already booked the Same Time Next Year, and yes we like it better than the Heritage House, our prior favorite.

Our stay in the iWork House was too short but wonderful. We loved the little neighborhood, the house was well appointed and so comfortable. Perfect for the six of us.

Miwok Escape was a wonderful experience in Bodega Bay. Three of us women meet once a year in February to see each other and enjoy eachother's company. The house was very clean and the company Bodega Escapes was very helpful. We used the very relaxing hot tub. It was very rainy all weekend so we were happy to get to use it the first night. The coffee maker did not work, and we did not bring any Keurig pods for the Keurig maker. We wished there were some board games or puzzles, because the rain kept us inside for most of the weekend. We did watch movies on the TV through our streaming services. The bathroom on the bottom floor was okay, we liked the big shower on the top floor better.
Overall, it was a fun weekend.

An immaculate home in a peaceful and beautiful location. If you fancy your privacy and like to be off the beaten path this the place to be. Clearly a home owner who cared about the property. The layout of the home is so cozy as well. The kitchen and living room on the second floor makes the dreamy view and peaceful vibe complete. Bodega Bay Escapes is always great to work with too.

we have stayed here many times and love this house, location is fabulous and the house works for us. this time the light in the closet in the master bedroom did not come on and the sheet kept coming off. otherwise, we loved our stay and will return

House is beautiful, everything you need for short or long stay. Had to make last minute change and bodega escapes was wonderful and made the change we needed. Home is large comfortable and fits a family well. Very quiet area, will come back .

We had such a lovely time. The place had just about everything we needed. Perfect for a weekend getaway with friends or family. From a distance you can even see the ocean! The property was in a private location as well. Clean, organized, instructions clear. We had a great time!

Miwok Escape truly deserves five stars. Location, comfort, cleanliness, etc

No matter the weather this place is delightful.

No matter the weather this place is delightful.

For the most part it was lovely, however, most of the pots and pans were dirty and the non-stick surfaces were no longer non-stick. We had to hand wash most of the dishes and glasses before using them as they had food and or greasy film on them. I pulled a hot pad out of the drawer that was covered in dry crusty food.The rest of the house was clean, it was just the kitchen and dishes that were gross. When we stayed here before we did not have this issue.

we love this house and are always pleased and rested when we return from a stay in salmon creek.

Love this place. Highly recommended.

Love this place. Highly recommended.

Location is almost everything & this house has it -close to beach, prairie walks. Also- three roomy bedrooms, a really large open kitchen, dining, living area perfect for family or friends. I am almost reluctant to rave about it as this is the 3rd time I've rented Miwok Escape & I'd like to have it available when I want to do so again!

we have had very good experiences with bodega bay escapes
however, this time the internet crashed and they could not be reached by phone; they have since apologized and we do not think this would happen again

Bright with lots of windows! Loved cooking on that super sized stove! Safe neighborhood for strolling down to the beach. Nice hot tub (looked new!) We’ll be back. Thank you!

We love the Salmon Creek house...a short walk to a fabulous beach, a great house to relax in, quiet and off the beaten track, near Bodega ... very happy to be three again

This was our third visit to our favorite rental on the Bodega Coast and we just booked our return next spring. The house is lovely, well maintained and managed, and the location is perfect.

we really love miwok escapes and also bodega bay escapes
the house is extremely clean and comfortable, we love the location and if there is a problem bodega bay escapes is prompt in helping out

I came here for my birthday, and I was not disappointed. The house was so cozy and spacious, and it really felt like the owners did not cut corners. It was a perfect location in that there are still neighbors around, but not too close, and the beach and creek are only a short walk away. We loved our master bedroom and cozy bed. There were plenty of blankets for the bedroom(s) and living room to help us stay cozy. The hot tub was also wonderful, although we couldn’t get half of the jets to work.

One silly thing: at 1am, we swore we heard a saxophone that was quiet enough that it sounded like it must be coming from outside. I went outside to investigate, but could only hear the ocean. It turns out the refrigerator plays a soft (non-intrusive) sax at 1am! Fancy!

Thank you so much...we will definitely be back!

We love the Miwok house! Lot's of light, open floor plan with several sweet window nooks/seats. Quiet spacious location in the dunes right near the trailhead for a lovely trail to the beach.

The house was spotless , the beds comfortable , this particular community is very quiet and relaxing .Very convenient location , close to area shopping and restaurants , but tucked away from any type of road noise .

Great house, great views, big rooms. Everything was wonderful. We couldn’t figure out how to work the oven... That was the only downside.

Loved the house and location. It had everything a person needed for a few days at the beach. Well stocked kitchen, comfortable beds, nice furniture and just a short walk to the beach.

Arrived to the property and it was better than expected!Had a great weekend with the kids and family!

we love miwok escapes for many reasons, comfortable, a short walk to a fabulous beach, seeing the stars from the hot tub at night, private and quiet

Perfect location for sandboarding,

Great home with wonderful amenities.

comfortable, , a short walk over the dunes to the beach, relaxing, lovely views from the deck

We had a fantastic time at Miwok Escape. Kind of isolated off the main road but close to everything. plenty of room to mingle. Comfortable beds and seating area. Enjoyed the hot tub every night while watching the stars. Very clean and comfortable.

My family loves this home. Great times

We really had a great stay at the Miwok property. We are already thinking about coming back soon. Very nice home, close to the beach, close to restaurants, very relaxing time.

A beautiful home at Salmon Creek...interior was very nice. Close to everything! We had one very minor issue with the TV and maintenance was at my door within minutes to fix the issue. Loved our 3 night stay. We will be back!

Exceptional rental in a beautiful location. The house is set up wonderfully for interaction in the open kitchen, dining, living room space. The bedrooms are well sized and the mattresses very comfortable. Location is great with easy access to both beach and prairie trail. Did I mention the hot tub?

This was one of the best properties we have ever stayed at. The location was perfect, the view was beautiful and the house was spacious and clean. We loved having all of the utensils to cook. The hot tub was wonderful and the beds were comfortable. I would highly recommend staying at this home and the vacation rental company was very easy to work with and helpful with any concerns that we had.

We have stayed at Miwok once before. We like the Salmon Creek area and we like the house.

How is awesome, very location, perfect distance to the beach

We had a fabulous time at this rental. The common living area, on the 2nd floor, is filled with light, a huge updated kitchen and living room. The three bedrooms were all large, the bathrooms were good - especially the master bedroom bath. Well decorated, well equipped, the linens on the bed were great, the house was really clean. We loved it.

Milk Escape is aptly named-a wonderful setting to get away from it all. It's spacious, has a great open space plan, and is set up for being "social" . It's also a perfect set up for multi-generational gatherings.

Relaxing time near the beach. We stayed in this house to other times and will back!

Such a great time. Loved the location, the house was great, accomdated all of us. We had everything we needed, views were beautiful. Great experience for all.

This is a perfect place for a family or couple to relax by the beach. The open floor plan makes it feel very roomy and plenty of privacy for each couple. If you plan on cooking big meals this is the perfect huge and very well stocked kitchen!!We bbq, sat in the spa and on the deck watching the sun rise and set each day. We also like the salmon creek area with its own beach!! You can walk ( 5-7 min) or take a short drive to get there and it’s never crowded! We always try to find a place in salmon creek and this place we will definitely return too!!

Stay at Miwok escapes..best laid out house we've been in since renting homes around bodega for the last ten years

What a great beach house. We love the dunes location and have twice been treated to fixed as well as deer sightings

This is a great rental! I loved the location which was so close to the beach. There was a lot of space in the house along with a great open floor plan. THe ocean views were wonderful. The hot tub was great as well. I'll definitely come back.

We very much enjoyed our stay. The play was clean and generally in good, not excellent, condition. We made a list of things that did not work and gave it to office staff when checking out.

Thanks as Always! We've been doing this for maybe 25 years! --Peter

WE RECENTLY SPENT CHRISTMAS TIME HERE AND HAD A PLEASANT EXPERIENCE

House is spacious and well appointed. Great social area, including a very nice hot tub. The location in the dunes is wonderful-we even saw foxes!

We are so in love with this fun beach house, the proximity to the beach and Salmon Creek neighborhood. Miwok Escape, as the house is called, was perfect for my family. The great room, with an ocean view was our gathering spot. It was large enough to prepare meals,watch TV and do art projects at the table. The bedrooms are very private. The BBQ and hot tub were an added bonus.

Nice place. Many good things. Very spacious, ample wood supply, great kitchen, well kept bedrooms, plenty of windows, large hot tub, clean home, quiet location, close to town, WiFi works, etc. Only a few things of note for guests; all beaches in Salmon Creek do not allow pets, bring your own deck chairs, couches and carpets getting worn, and some lights not working.

As this was our second stay at Miwok we had a wonderful time. Close to everything yet quiet enough to really relax and enjoy the view

PLENTY OF SPACE FOR PARENTS, GRANDKIDS AND FAMILY MEMBERS. WE ENJOYED THE PROXIMITY TO THE BEACH AND TRAIL TO BODEGA COMMUNITY CENTER.

We had a wonderful time walking on the beach. My grandchildren have been to Salmon Creek since they were little; they are now 14, 12 and 9. This is our first stay at Miwok Escape and it was GREAT. Two of us hiked the Pomo Canyon trail and to the top of Red Hill. The spa delighted some and the TV entertained some with a Giants Baseball game. (We have some avid fans in our family.) An unexpected sight: I turned off my reading light and noticed how dark it made the room. I looked at the large window and it was filled with stars.
We cook all of our meals and the kitchen is beautiful and had all the dishes, cooking pots and pans we needed. The home was clean and well maintained. The staff at Bodega Bay Escapes was helpful and friendly on every contact. I would recommend this property.

Our family of eight stayed at the Miwok Escape this week. It was a wonderful place: nice but casual, relaxing and well equipped with everything we needed. The location is exceptional with ready access to the creek and to the ocean. Well maintained hot tub was enjoyed by all.
Thank you! Will come again!

We were very pleased with the home. Nice view, open floor plan, comfortable beds, great stove.

My family and I had such a wonderful time there that we've already reserved the house for next year

What an amazing way to relax and enjoy the scenery while participate in an incredibly beautiful wedding in incredibly beautiful Bodega Bay!

We spent three nights here with my girl friends mother and another friend. The living area is very spacious and the kitchen is well equipped. The bedrooms are large and the master bath has a walk-in shower with two shower heads - always a favorite with us. Lot's of nice touches in the layout and design. Only downside for us was that while there is essentially nothing between you and the beach you can only see the ocean and not the waves crashing on the beach. We really enjoyed our stay and would book this again in a heartbeat.

Always wonderful and we look forward to it all year.

We stayed at the Miwok Escape, a beautiful three bedroom, two bath home. We loved the layout of the house, two bedrooms and bath downstairs and the living area (open kitchen, living room areas with GREAT light)and master bedroom and bath upstairs. Lots of decks and a hot tub. The house was beautiful, well decorated, cozy and well appointed. The house is located in the dunes and is very private - and fairly close to the ocean - a short walk thru the dunes. All in all, a great house for a get away!!!
