Awesome place! Very inviting and cozy. Short walk to the beach overlook. Nice add-ins like the game and book shelf, local information available, and emergency lighting (that we did use during a power outage). Lighthouse nearby. Close by restaurant, Larrupine' Cafe, had a sample board with several locally made food items, and the food was phenomenal!
Cozy overall

Absolutely loved the location!! Short walk down to the beach and a few hiking options. In depth binder with lots of info on town and cottage. Yard is very small & looks pretty unused but you're next to the coast & Redwoods!

Nice cottage in Trinidad

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was more than happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Trinidad is close to nice beaches and about 30 mins south of good Redwoods hiking. The property is roomy for 2 and comfortable. Lacks a stove, but the grill was a reasonable substitute. Within walking distance of restaurants, a coffee shop, and a grocery store. Overall nice location.

Lovely stay in a clean, modern cabin with a great bed

Crabber’s Cottage is centrally located to all eateries in Trinidad, which an excellent coffee place a few yards away. The elevated view of the ocean is lovely. It’s a short drive to the beach. The cottage is exceptionally clean and the bed is amazingly comfortable.
