Heaven in Humboldt

Such a wonderful experience staying at the Crow’s Nest! The property is even nicer in person, with plenty of space for the 4 of us. The views from inside and outside were stunning. Easy beach access, and just a short walk into the adorable town of Trinidad which has great art shops and a nice variety of places to eat. We will definitely stay here again!

Amazing views in a wonderful, small coastal town

We stayed here last week and loved it. The views are amazing, and the house is great. The bed is comfortable and had ample pillows and blankets. There were also a lot of extra towels. It is great to not have to bring your own towels and sheets to a rental. The pullout was also reportedly comfortable. It has a well stocked kitchen. It rained most of the time we were there (pouring rain and wind), which was unfortunate because we could not sit outside to enjoy the deck and views from outside. The house is within walking distance to everything in town - restaurants, the beach, etc.There is some furniture that could use some updating - like the chair in the bedroom and the noisy sofa. For restaurants, we liked Seascape for breakfast because the views in the front room! Both mornings, we were there early and it is a locals type of place - people talking to each other about the storm, their boats, neighborhood news - we loved it. The waitress was the same both mornings and she was lovely. We also liked Trinidad Bay Eatery & Gallery - ate there for dinner and had some of the best fish and chips outside of England. All of their food was fresh and the service was great. Also, very close to Redwoods National Park/Prairie Creek State Park for lots of great hikes.We would recommend for anyone looking to getaway to Trinidad.

The Crow's Nest was perfect for our needs

My husband and I both loved our time at The Crow's Nest. It was the perfect location for our bucket list trip to see the coastal redwoods. It was great getting to watch from big windowed front wall as the fishermen and their fishing boats moored in the bay become active as the sun rose. The house had everything we needed in a very comfortable layout. We lucked out with fabulous weather in February as we both walked the Trinidad to Clam Beach 5.75 mile Run/Walk from the Redwoods to the sea. The Trinidad community is a great walking community. You can easily walk "over town" to the grocery store, restaurants, souvenir shops, and art and history museums, or down to the beaches, Trinidad Head trailhead, the pier, lighthouse replica and the SeaScape Restaurant. All the food we had in town was wonderful. Headies makes the best pizza we ever had, and The SeaScape makes the best blackberry pie ever! We did have to contact Karen as we had a little trouble with the lock box - and she came right over to help us out. We are already telling friends who now think they may like to make the trip to see the Redwoods, that they should check out staying at The Crow's Nest in Trinidad. If we get the chance to go again, we definitely would want to stay there.

Beautiful View and Accessible Location

Second time we have stayed here. We can walk everywhere…the beach, pier, shopping and restaurants! The best part however is the beautiful unobstructed view of the bay from kitchen and living room area. The place, while worn and somewhat dated is immaculate! Someone goes out of their way to ensure the place is spotless. The kitchen is well equipped and user friendly. We will return to this gem of a place.

Best Beach Bungalow

This was our 5th visit to Crow's Nest in as many years so you know we love it. The views of Trinidad Bay & Head are glorious. This super clean sweet home is perfect for 2. Perfect base camp for exploring the Redwood National & State Parks. The beautiful Sue Meg State Park is right up the road. Highly recommend Crow's Nest.

EXCEEDED OUR EXPECTATIONS

We could not have been more pleased with the accommodations. It was exactly as described. Our host, Karen, went out of her way to make our three night stay enjoyable. Why, she even arranged for sunshine and warm weather each day. We will definitely return for another stay. (Just joking about the weather, but it was as described.)
