The Unique Benefits at this Beach Cottage
The property is a unique one within Mendocino. We have one of the largest pieces of property within the actual Town of Mendocino. We also enjoy the only running creek; which empties into the Pacific below.
Watching deer, wild turkeys, birds of all kinds, and many squirrels are favorites of our kids.
