I’ve stayed at many of these properties and this was the most beautiful
Clean property. Smooth process. Quality amenities. Always little things one could note but we had a fabulous stay. And there is nothing like the stunning views and setting.

This home is stocked with everything needed to enjoy meals in! Stunningly beautiful views and ocean breezes to enjoy on the deck. Both indoor and outdoor seating for 8, it worked well for our 4 couples vacationing together. Mendocino Preferred Vacation Rentals were professional and responsive. The property is only 1 mile from Little River Inn Golf Course and 4 miles from Mendocino.

Reviewer Comments:
The house was very well maintained and the view from the deck is incredible. Overall, we enjoyed Mendocino very much but the wind was a little tough. We were unable to sit on the deck as much as we would have liked. Also, our internet went out and the management was unable to fix the problem. They tried but it was still unfortunate. We think they should have contacted the provider. Still, we would recommend this property to anyone visiting Mendocino. Best view anywhere! We loved the Good Life Bakery and Cafe and also Luna Trattoria. Highly recommend. The cliff walk in Mendocino was breathtaking and we enjoyed Montgomery woods and the Skunk Train.
We have rented a vacation home along the Mendocino Coast for the past 29 years and this house is at the top of the list! The views, layout, cleanliness, attractions were all fantastic! We can't wait to visit this house again!
Stunning views that we enjoyed from the hot tub which looks new. Would definitely rent again.

We had such a lovely time at Buckhorn Cove. The house was clean, well equiped and those views! This rental is the best kept secret. We will absolutely be back.
Having arrived in the middle of a storm, we were surprised and happy to find the house had back up power. While some things didn’t function, the majority of the house did. Heat, lights, hot water were not a problem.
Stayed for 2 nights and the house was as described on the web site. Quiet location, great views, well stocked house and very comfortable. Would gladly come back.
Visited for my birthday and could not be happier with my visit. Even with the winter weather i was able to enjoy the views from the family room and the peninsula, in fact the weather made it even more dramatic! Cozy, warm, comfortable and still able to enjoy the ocean!
