The host was timely with check-in instructions. Many items were already provided in the kitchen. The garden was a great place to hang out. And, the proximity to restaurants and the 101 highway was excellent.

Thank you for the nice review! Please come back again next year!
The perfect stop on our road trip! The children enjoyed the beautiful outdoor space, the beds were extremely comfortable and the organic market across the street was just perfect for making a quick, healthy breakfast & stock up on snacks.

Glad our spot worked well! We love our small well appointed natural foods store!
It was such a beautiful little house with close access to everything. There was an incredible little garden outside of one of the rooms. Everything you would need for your stay!
Yes it was lovely and we especially loved the backyard for lounging-reading. AND the COOP across the street perfectly added our breakfast food, Good coffee by the way.thanks again,Got to tell you, My sister is named Mary and our Mom was Peg

That is so awesome to have a personal connection, so happy you enjoyed it!
Mary’s cottage is a special place with very good vibes. The garden was a lovely surprise and more than expected with the trickling fountain and beautiful trees and so many birds. It is a peaceful haven despite the street noise from being on a busy corner. Mary’s cottage was a place I wanted to be. We were there to see the Redwoods but the time we enjoyed inside Mary’s cottage was an equal highlight because the cozy kitchen and relaxing garden made the end of our days something to look forward to. We took advantage of the natural foods store across the street both nights of our stay. Our opinion is Garberville is not a destination itself, it is a struggling town and our original idea of strolling and exploring was not appealing. I don’t recommend watching any Netflix documentaries about the history of the emerald triangle while you are there, lol. But Mary’s cottage is special and I would return to Garberville for that. I also preferred the southern location in the county as a base for sightseeing. I usually stay much farther north but I enjoyed this alternative and would choose it again. The weather did not cooperate with our planned day trip to shelter cove, I look forward to that in the future! I would love to know what mattress is in the bedroom that opens to the garden, I got the best sleep ever!
This was my third stay at this property and I will keep coming back. The house is so close to shops and cafes and only a short drive to Richardson Grove where the rest of my family likes to camp.
Comforting and delightful! The beds were excellent, lovely details throughout the space. We loved just walking across the street to the natural food market. The kitchen was well equipped, nice appliances.
Beds were comfortable and kitchen was well equipped. Bathroom needed somewhere to put toiletries and hairdryer cord did not reach far enough to see in the mirror.

Thank you for the review I will get a professional dryer they have really long cords🫶🏼
This property is super cute. Its a small house, but has everything you could need during a stay. It was very clean and the beds were comfortable. The back yard is adorable. This was a great stop over on our way to the redwoods. Great history of the house and a gracious host.
