Find a timeless coastal retreat at this three-bedroom Fort Bragg cottage, a welcoming family home with a sun-splashed deck with outdoor shower, a beautiful tree-lined property, and wonderful access to nearby towns, beaches, and ocean bluffs.
This quaint home sits on an open, grassy property, right on the edge of lush woodlands and the eastern reaches of MacKerricher State Park. Head four miles south into downtown Fort Bragg to hop on board the Skunk Train or marvel at the treasures on Glass Beach, spend afternoons exploring the Mendocino Coast Botanical Gardens seven miles south, and take short walks down to MacKerricher's ocean bluffs to look for passing whales and watch spectacular sunsets.
With wood floors including newly installed LVP flooring, large windows, and thoughtful, comfortable furnishings, this cheerful cottage is full of bucolic charm. Spend foggy mornings reading on the plush sectional sofa, cozying up by the electric fireplace, and flipping pancakes in the full country kitchen with natural wood cabinetry, standard appliances, and a dishwasher.
Take daily excursions to the artsy village of Mendocino (14 miles south) and other breathtaking stretches of California Highway 1, and return home to unwind in the sunshine on the deck. Set the dining room table or the patio table for dinner, and linger outside with a bottle of wine to watch the stars fill the night sky. Back inside, you'll have a cable TV and Starlink WiFi to bring the evening to a relaxing close.

Three siblings reunited for a fun weekend and your place was perfect for us! Close to a great walking beach and not far from a surfing beach! Plus close to shopping and food! The house was super cozy and welcoming. We felt right at home!Thank you so much!
We stayed in Fort Bragg/ Cleone for 3 nights. The home is a great central location if you want to explore Mendocino's Redwoods. We just came for the ocean and the forest.
The cottage, its location, and lovely setting was perfect for our family. The beds were comfortable and the house was well equipped. Our family will look forward to staying there again.
The house is very comfortable, perfect for a small family get-together. It's somewhat secluded and private, yet close to the beach. The rental process was easy and reliable. I would definitely rent this house again.
The house was really nice, clean and welcoming. We didn’t spend a lot of time there but we did enjoy the area. A short walk took us to the beach and a paved path for longer walks.

Great holiday weekend getaway with the girls
Parkside was just the perfect place to relax, rejuvenate, enjoy the coast, buy unique gifts at the local shops, and dine at local eateries. This charming cabin, located just outside of Ft. Bragg, has everything you need to feel at home away from home. We will definitely be back.

Family Getaway
Charming house, well stocked, great location with a quick walk down to the beach and walking/biking trail. Our 4 year old learned to ride a pedal bike in your driveway and loved the outdoor shower, we hope to be back!

Incredibly homey
I felt like I was coming home. Immediately felt so comfortable and cozy. Everything was here that we needed.
This house was perfect for our family of four plus one dog. Super short walk to the beach and trails. The house was clean and had everything we needed. We will be back!

A lovely, quiet place!
This was a lovely place to stay to celebrate my son’s birthday and Father’s Day. Clean and comfortable with a well-stocked kitchen. Our favorite thing was being able to walk to the beach where we spent most of our time. I will definitely stay here again! Thank you
