About this property

Mendocino Cozy Cabin-Large Patio, Grill & Garden

Summary:

Mendo Cupola



The Space:

Welcome to the lovely town of Mendocino and the gorgeous vacation rental of your dreams! You'll be placed right within driving distance of the local hotspots, such as the Mendocino Headlands State Park, where a gorgeous hike that leads to its seaside bluffs and several beaches awaits you and your family on a beautiful day out. Slow it down and smell the roses at Mendocino Coast Botanical Gardens where you'll find an assortment of beautiful flowers along a lovely walk path.



Return back to your home tucked away within the forest after a fun-filled day out on the coast and be welcomed in by the foyer's open arms. Inside, you'll find an assortment of amenities right at your fingertips, sure to set you in the mood for some much-needed relaxation. Take a quick power nap in the spacious living area, complete with comfortable furnishings and a spiral staircase that leads to the loft area. Whip up a mealtime masterpiece in the quaint kitchen area or head outside and throw some patties onto the gas grill for some classic American barbecue.



Bring your favorite book and read it out on the beautiful patio area as you take a deep breath of the fresh air and listen to the sounds of nature. Afterward, hop into a bathing suit and simmer for a while in the hot tub with some good drinks and even better company. As the night comes to a close, light the fire pit and roast some marshmallows over the flame for some tasty midnight snacks.



Other Things to Note:

Check-in Form: To ensure a smooth and secure stay for all guests, we kindly require completion of our short check-in form after booking. This includes signing our standard rental agreement and verifying guest and payment information. It only takes a few minutes and helps us prepare the home for your arrival.



Pet Policy: We welcome up to 2 well-behaved dogs (50 lbs or under). A nightly pet fee applies and all pets must be disclosed at booking. Pets may not be left unattended unless crated, must stay off furniture, and guests are responsible for cleanup and reporting any damage. Undeclared pets or excessive mess may result in additional fees.



We prioritize a safe environment for our guests. For security and peace of mind, this property has 3 exterior-only security cameras: one above the front door that covers that entrance on the exterior front deck, one above the laundry room door covering that door's entrance (exterior), and one at the guest house, which is not part of the rental and on a separate part of the property.

The house and property are great. The communication between the people who answer the phone when we called with a problem and the cleaning staff is not good. However the ability of the people who answer the phone to resolve difficulties (even late in the evening) was very good. The grounds are beautiful, the house is well equipped and very comfortable, and the drive to Mendocino is short.

We had a lovely week of just existing in this beautiful space. It felt like staying in the home of a good friend. We were so comfortable and had everything we needed. Surrounded by the woods, the beautiful art on the walls, and special features to enjoy, like the hammock, the fire pit, and lofted spaces throughout the home. We cooked in the cozy kitchen, played a lot of corn hole, hot tubbed, made smores, read books in the living room and on the deck, and easily made it to town in just a couple minutes. Having the laundry room available was great! Super clean, comfy beds and a great space for our tween daughter to explore- kids this age will love climbing up into the loft to watch a movie and exploring the yard. Will definitely return!

We loved this place, and wish we could have stayed longer. The outdoors blend with the indoors so well. Every room has vivid nature views. The pillows, beds, and towels were such high quality. A fox trotted by one morning. We were only 4, but there were beds for a few more people. The only thing that was a nuisance were the mosquitoes. They were out all day and night, which made us want to stay inside. Unfortunately, when we arrived, there were already a bunch in the house, so, despite our efforts to never leave the doors open, a couple of us had a bunch of bites. Not being from the area, I'm not sure what pest control would be needed to limit the mosquitoes (if anything), but the experience would be 100/100 if the mosquitoes didn't exist in and around the home.
