This property is truly magical! Margie was the perfect host warm, welcoming, and incredibly thoughtful. She had everything ready for us to settle right in, including coffee, milk, English muffins, butter, and fresh fruit. The cottage itself is absolutely charming, surrounded by beautiful flowers and entertaining chickens that made the setting feel even more special. We’re so glad we discovered this gem and can’t wait to return. Thank you, Margie, for making our stay so wonderful!

We thoroughly enjoyed our relaxing stay in this cozy cottage. Having the fireplace and the chicks nearby made it especially fun. It was so peaceful and quiet in the huge redwoods. Margie has thought of everything to make our stay comfortable. Having some eggs from the chickens was a nice touch as was the homemade apricot preserves. It was nice to be able to visit with Margie and to learn about the history of the Enchanted Cottage and her family.

About the host

Hosted by Margie Kamb

Host profile image
After raising my children here on the family property I ran our bed and breakfast in the house and barn for over 35 years. Along the way, I met some wonderful people some of who came back every year. We even had Goldie Hawn and Kurt Russell and their son Wyat stay for six weeks while filming the movie Overboard. Nice people.
My gardens are important to me and give me much pleasure as do my chickens who give me lots of eggs.
I am celebrating living in Mendocino for the past 50 years having moved here in 1971.
It's not always been easy but I wouldn't want to live anywhere else and I'm lucky to have my family and friends close by. I'm a happy, lucky person.
