A sense of solitude amongst the trees

My wife and I loved this small, yet perfect in many ways, hideaway. The property was as described. We found it to be, quite, well equipped, and a classic cabin type home. The fenced in deck with spa, was used everyday. We have stayed in many large beautiful homes, but this little jewel will bring us back again!

Mendo Cottage

Small and cozy cottage just above Mendo village. Great location, quiet spot, friendly people. The cottage is clean, equip with most kitchen items needed. Housekeeping comes in daily to make beds, restock towels, and clean dishes which is a nice perk.

Quaint cottage

Overall the cottage is adorable. Plenty of pots/pans/utensils/plates/etc. The water pressure is good. I don’t recall seeing in the listing that the little love seat opens into a bed. This was a nice surprise that I realized on our last day 😀. Also, the provided dog bowls and towels are a very nice touch. Our dog also seemed to enjoy his time away from Berkeley-he never once barked. 😀

A little bit of a disappointment

Firstly all let me say, we had a lovely stay in Mendocino! We love the town, we love wandering around and the location was wonderful. I guess I had high hopes by the picture and by the description online. Essentially the property is a studio with a loft! We never used the loft so in essence you walk in and everything is all in one room it’s old and dated. It is clean but everything is older and could really use an uplift. The three nights that we were there, I kept saying well it has a barbecue that’s a plus. Well we can have our dog with us that’s a plus. Well it has a Jacuzzi that’s a plus. I wonder why I kept trying to talk myself into it.. I kept referring back to the pictures to see what I had missed. We were happy with our stay, but would Investigate another accommodation next time. I do need to add, my fiancé who is more of an outdoor mountain kind of guy walked away with a better opinion. Maybe I am just too girlie. Lol

House was great. Clean. Well stocked and had freah water for drinking. We loved the specual touches for the pups and the interior decor. The foreplace was excellent to wake up to. The only very small thing I'd add is a light in closet. Otherwise the place was perfcet. Thank you so much for a wonderful stay.

The over-all ambiance & comfort of the Cottage is delightful. Very quiet and relaxing. Worthy of five stars. We're only downgrading it to 4 stars because there is some maintenance/repair that needs to be done--particularly at this price point. This includes: The interior is quite lovely, but the exterior is pretty funky. At this price point, some folks may be put off. The sliding glass patio door leading to the rear deck & hot tub needs to be replaced. The insulated glass is failing, leading to clouding, but more importantly it is difficult to operate, particularly the screen door which constantly fell off it's track. This door gets used frequently (and cannot be left open as there are flies). There is no garbage disposal. but the strainer is broken and cannot be locked in the open position, so you have to hold it open manually just a bit so the water drains out without taking food scraps with it. OK, a minor annoyance, but easily fixed. The refrigerator is too small for more than a few-day stay. Lastly, a note to seniors or persons with mobility issues: There are two steps from the house up to the deck, and of course more steps up into the hot tub, both without railings or grab bars. The bathtub/shower is quite high, making it somewhat difficult to get into, and even harder to get out of, although here there is a grab bar.Other than these annoyances, the cottage is quite lovely, and we will return.

Another wonderful trip to Mendocino!

We’ve stayed at the Redwood Cottage a couple times now and have thoroughly enjoyed the quiet cabin and surrounding areas. Close to town, yet tucked away, it’s exactly what we were looking for. Listing is as described, clean, and cozy. Only thing this time around was that the hot tub was a bit dirty. Otherwise, met all our needs!
