Lovely little cottage

We really enjoyed our stay in the cottage. It had everything we needed and in the perfect location to wander in to town or out to the headlands. The cottage was clean and comfortable, and very cozy when it was cold and rainy outside.

Wonderful Seaside Cottage

The Cottage was just perfect for our small family to stay a few days in the charming town of Mendocino. The seaside location, surrounded with striking views and stunning locations, provided many opportunities for exploring the area's natural beauty. We'd love to return to this property again :)

Great property, fantastic location

This cottage was ideal for our family visit. It's the perfect size for a small family with comfortable bedroom upstairs and a great sofa bed in the living area. Everything was super clean and well maintained. The location was ideal for us, easy walking distance to food and shops as well as a beautiful trail along the ocean cliffs. Highly recommend!

Awesome getaway in mendocino

Location and neighborhood is awesome. Highly recommended. Only gripe was the smoke detector which would go off in the middle of the night even if we were not cooking. Overall it was an awesome experience and would stay again

Quaint solo stay

This cottage is cozy with excellent heater stove and beautiful views of the ocean and fields. Walk 3 mins to the outrageously wild waves hitting the coves. Good life coffee is up the street for coffee/breakfast/lunch and great dinners at Fog Eater and Trillium. Would come back in a heartbeat and stay here.

Great Stay For Christmas Holiday

My partner Becky and I - and our 2 year old pup - stayed here for the Christmas holiday weekend. The cottage was well appointed and warm. The bed very comfortable. We never needed the kitchen as we walked to our relatives’ home about a block away for holiday meals. The headlands trails were literally right out the door.l which our puppy loved. Would definitely stay here again.

Perfect place to stay!

The location is incredible. Easily walk to everything downtown, the views of the headlands out the north windows is just so peaceful and relaxing. The rocking chairs by the window upstairs was a nice touch. We really enjoyed our stay here. And our pup loved the yard out back. Even with 2 houses on the same property, there’s plenty of privacy. It’s nice that each rental property has a yard on opposite sides of the buildings so even the dogs get some privacy when they play outside (yards are not enclosed by fencing but they’re big and the streets are not very busy). Would absolutely stay here again!

Good time inspite of a less than operational kitchen

For a 'cottage' it was nicely done. The bed upstairs was ultra comfortable, the sofa bed was almost unsleepable. The kitchen "hot" plates took more than 5 minutes to warm up and they didn't warm up much. Not great for us as we hauled in a lot of food to prepare in the cottage, but had to go out for meals.

Talk to me of Mendocino…

You cannot beat this location if you prefer peace, quiet and tranquility. The headlands are at your door step. One can walk for groceries, restaurants, or to the beach. The people are friendly. The scenery is beautiful. The sounds and smells of the sea are everywhere. These accommodations are basic. The kitchenette is adequate, but cooking a large meal would be a challenge. The neighbor’s fence near the entrance should be fixed. Overall, our family absolutely loved our stay. We have a six-year-old daughter and a medium sized dog and all our wants and desires we met.
