I got a mailing solicitating me to a management company manage a property I have. I did a little research and found that there negative reviews for this company (although some are from 5 years ago). I am weary about proceeding with this management company, but I don't mind taking a look at other companies.
Are there some reputable vacation rental management companies that service the northern California area?
There's probably a reason a company resorts to unsolicited mailings in order to drum up business.
You may be more successful getting recommendations if you re post this question in the CA subforum. If you know a realtor in the area maybe ask them who've they've heard good reviews about?

I suspect that there are no property management companies that do not have bad reviews. I can't even find three-star restaurants without bad reviews.
I think you mean you are wary of proceeding. Now if you had already proceeded, then you might be weary of them.
Is this the property with the tall ladder down the cliff to the beach? If so I'd be really careful renting it .
Actually it's a 70 degree slope about 40' high. The management company recommends prohibiting people to go down, but I think access to the pristine ocean inaccessible to the public would be the biggest selling point of this place. I'm not so worried about falling since the bottom is all sand; it will be a soft landing. I'm most worried about people being swept into the ocean or drown while diving. Ocean is lots of fun but very dangerous.

Did you build that greenhouse/sun porch off the side too?

Not yet; we started with the interior, changing all wood wall panels into sheetrock. Then the pandemic froze everything. I now want to add an ADU, am thinking how to integrate the sunroom/greenhouse idea into the ADU work.

I used to live across the PCH from the beach in Montara, just north of Half Moon Bay. There was a state park there that was a favorite haunt of vacationers to the Bay Area.
I would sit out on my front porch on sunny days with a beverage in hand, watching the rental carloads of out of staters pull up, disgorging the family in full beach regalia. The kids would be yelling and laughing, running into the surf at full speed in their swimsuits.
Within 10 seconds you would hear their blood-curdling screams as they realized the water temperature was probably 40-50 degrees.
Yeah, that Pacific Ocean is mighty, mighty cold. It is not Florida.
