About this property

Beautiful Cottage in the Heart of the Redwoods

Your adventure in the California Coastal Redwoods begins at our newest 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom cottage. Inside this beautiful home, guests find a king bed, two queen beds, and a twin bed, perfect for families or groups. The living room features a comfy sofa queen bed, offering extra sleeping space. Two bathrooms include both a shower and a bathtub, making it easy to refresh after a day of exploring. Cozy heating keeps the space warm and inviting. Whether you’re relaxing or getting ready for the day, the cottage provides everything you need for a terrific stay. We look forward to hosting you at our awesome getaway!

We are quite literally in the middle of the Redwood National Park, along Highway 101. We are centrally located among the many Parks, Trails, Beaches & Lagoons in the National Park. Our property is also encircled in several creeks that are fishable. This cottage is one of four homes on our 6 acre property with a small RV Park on the opposite side of the property. This home is filled with the amenities of home as well as a beautiful deck & spacious backyard with a fire pit, free firewood, BBQ (propane provided), & plenty of seating to unwind after your adventures.

You will have access to the whole house which features an open concept living, large dining table, peninsula, bar stools, full-sized laundry machines, full kitchen completely stocked with all your cooking essentials & tools, Smart TV with complimentary streaming apps, a cozy fireplace, whole house heating, & free WiFi as there is very little cell coverage out in our neck of the woods. All linens, towels, laundry, dish, body wash, shampoo, conditioner, storage containers & bags, beach towels & toys are provided.

During our fall months you can enjoy the fresh blackberries that encircle our property. And don’t be surprised if you are visited by our Rosevelt Elk that wonder up and down the highway and throughout the Redwoods.

We are very close to Prairie Creek State Park, Fern Canyon/Gold Bluff Beach, Lady Bird Johnson Park, Trillium Falls, Lost Man’s Creek, & many, many trails & waterways. We are perfectly located for your adventures in the Redwoods & provide an incredible home away from home to rest & rejuvenate in-between those adventures.
Our prices include all fees. No hidden fees.

This cozy cottage was perfect for our group of 6. It was very clean and had everything we needed. The small cooler was a nice addition as we were going to stop and get one. Perfect for our outings. The location was near so many wonderful spots in the redwoods. Right off 101 was a plus. Would definitely recommend this property.

Kenu house is amazing!! It was very fresh, clean and cozy. Beds and linen were very comfortable. Kitchen was beautiful and well appointed. Charlene was very friendly, responsive and provided good information for local activities, both verbally, in the guest book and online before our arrival. The house is centrally located to the Redwoods, a few towns and many beaches, making it easy to do multiple activities each day while still having time to relax and enjoy the house. Big kitchen table for games, puzzles and meals. At night, we curled up on the couch to watch movies while enjoying the electric fireplace. Loved seeing the elk from our windows! Our group of 3 adults and 1 dog really enjoyed our time here! We definitely recommend Kenu house in the Heart of the Redwoods and would stay here again!

The Ken(u) Cottage was perfect for our small family reunion (3 of us) for 5 days. The Host was so accommodating, helpful and easy to communicate with. The cottage is beautifully decorated and everything you might need is there, with the exception of your food, drinks, clothing. There is a washer and dryer available, and they will also provide needs for a baby/small child (like highchair and other items) check with them on that. It's pet friendly, I believe it's up to 3 dogs. They must be under your control, particularly because of wildlife in the area. We didn't encounter that during our stay. It's located central to most visited locations in northern California. Very convenient. It felt like we were at home. This cottage has 3 bedrooms, two bathrooms, and a sofa with a pull-out bed. Staying here will always be a highlight of our trip. We highly recommend Heart of the Redwoods!We visited the Trees of Mystery, several stops with areas of historic sites and points of interest, like a WWII Radar Station, the Hoopa Valley, we dined at the Sunset Grill, the Seaquake Brewery in Crescent City, breakfast at Toni's in Arcata, off track from the normal we crossed from Hoopa to the coast via Bald Hills Road (beautiful sunsets above the clouds. So much more to see in this area!

The house was super cute! We were close to the beach and the forest which was convenient. Also got to have a fire pit in the back yard which was very quiet and cute
