We had a great stay. The only thing is that this listing states there are four bathrooms. In actuality there are three in the house and then one outside so to say it is a six bedroom, four bathroom house is a bit misleading.

Beautiful property in a great location! We all got our own comfortable bed and there was room for everyone at the dinner table and/or watching TV and relaxing. Our group of friends travel every year someplace new and this was one for the books! From the restaurants, spa, mansion tours to the winery and cliff walk - everything was amazing!!!

Great location

Our family of 13 stayed here for my son's wedding. It is in a great location and it was walking distance to the venue. The wrap around porch was SO nice to sit on in the morning enjoying your coffee. The interior was up to date and nicely decorated. The hosts were easy to get in touch with if needed.

Such a PERFECT getaway - everyone was obsessed with the house/property. So much room, GIANT deck and GIANT yard, makes for an amazing summer weekend away. The owner and his family were close by and so friendly and on top of things! We even got to meet some of his extended family which was so sweet.

Great Property and Even Better Location

We had a golf weekend at the Hedgegate and the property was great. The house has a large yard for games and grilling. The wrap-around porch was the best part of the house for us, we were outside almost the entire time. The house is really close to the beach and some great restaurants. We would definitely come back again to stay at the Hedgegate.
