Mendocino is a magical place and this little cottage is the perfect place for 2 people to stay and enjoy all it has to offer! Walk everywhere in town and short drives to other adventures!
We thoroughly enjoyed staying at this comfortable and welcoming home. The view was amazing and we had everything we needed. The hosts thought of everything and we appreciated each little touch. Thank you!
We like to go to Mendocino every year for my birthday. This cottage was the perfect place to stay. Cheri has thought of everything! From a fully equipped kitchen, to chilled glasses and water, to walking sticks and folding chairs, everything you need is here. The cottage is comfortable and relaxing, and walking distance to any place in town. And talk about a view! What a great way to wake up in the morning. Thank you so much, Cheri.
The location in town and the view could not be better! A cozy, comfy, quiet retreat in which to enjoy our complimentary bottle of excellent pinot noir.Thanks again!
Cant say enough about this little gem…location, view, walking distance to village, bed & linens were great, cleanliness, decor, kitchen & bath accessories couldn’t be better. So glad we spotted it on VRBO & look forward to returning again the months ahead.
We appreciated the privacy, the view and the location of the cottage. Also, the special touches and attention to detail the owners provided made us feel like very welcome guests. One of our favorite of many places we have stayed over the years in this lovely town and area!
Everything you need is here - kitchen, nice living area with view, bedroom area! It was a rainy weekend, so it was nice to have a little more room than we've previously had with some of the smaller rooms that are so common in the inns in town. Great location, within walking distance to everything you need. Will definitely stay again!
Beautifully located property in the heart of Mendocino with all the amenities. Perfect little abode to rest one's head after exploring the town or the local redwood forest.
A very well-appointed property! Had everything we needed to feel comfy and warm inside as well as gear for outside. Loved the location with easy access to the bluffs, trails, ocean views, restaurants and shops. We would absolutely return again and for a longer stay!
This was my second time staying at this property. It has a great location. walking distance to many shops, restaurants, and the local grocery store. The view from the front window is beautiful. We enjoyed a very relaxing time here filled with hiking and visiting the local shops.
We loved our time in Mendocino and this was the perfect location! We were able to walk around town to the cute local shops and down to the beach, too. We’d definitely recommend booking this place if it’s available!
We had a wonderful time at this VRBO. The property is well organized and is located close to restaurants & coffee shops. The beach is quite close by as well. Definitely plan on coming back.
The property had a marvelous view and was very clean. I always arrive at any VRBO with a myriad of cleaning supplies. I did not need to clean the house before I felt comfortable.We did speak with the owners about the sofa which is subpar. They realize that it is a problem and are going to replace it. we enjoyed our week and hope to return soon.
We've stayed at Cheri's studio four times now, and it never disappoints! Clean, well-stocked, perfect location on the edge of town, and Cheri is always helpful and communicative. Can't wait to go back!

About the host
Hosted by Cheri Osborne
Peter's Grandmother Mary Taylor purchased this property in 1962. The Village Suite used to be her art studio and is located next to the family home where Peter and Cheri live. Cheri has lived on the Mendocino Coast over 40 years, and is a real estate Broker at Mendo Sotheby's. Her interests are organic gardening, cooking, preserving/canning food and helping people find their dream home here. Peter is retired from KGO TV and his interests are remote controlled aircraft, petanque, golfing, gardening, and home projects. We were married in 2016. We love Mendocino and look forward to welcoming you and telling you about the things we love to do and see here.
Why they chose this property
Cheri arrived here in 1977 from Washington to attend pottery school at the Mendocino Art Center, drove into town and fell in love with the area. She never left. Peter spent his childhood visiting Mendocino, and his parents moved into the main house in 1990. He lived in the Bay Area, and drove up frequently to visit his parents and his sister, Jennifer, who lives around the corner. We are in the process of making the main house our very own home with personal touches. It is exciting to be able to offer the Village Suite as a vacation rental!
What makes this property unique
We love our property because it is located on the west end of town in a quiet residential district known as Portuguese Flats. The fantastic unobstructed view across state park and onto the Mendocino Bay is a very unique and hard to come by view in the Village. Our family has spent many happy years on this property and we look forward to sharing it with you and helping you create your own happy Mendocino memories!
