Home is in a great location with beautiful views of the Mendocino coast. The kitchen is well-equipped for cooking meals, and the fire place makes the house so cozy. There are lots of games for the kids and a ton of DVD movies. The hot tub was a wonderful way to end the evening. Would definitely stay here again!

Great Location

We had a fantastic stay! The location is perfect—it's so easy to access and a quick drive to Mendocino. The space is lovely and spacious, and the owner was very easy to reach and communicate with. The only suggestion we have for future guests is to upgrade the towels and some of the kitchen items. Otherwise, it's an amazing place to stay and we would definitely come back!

About the host

Hosted by Stacey Kramer

Host profile image
We love to share SEA DAZE for others to enjoy. Our goal is to have the feeling as “your home, away from home”

Why they chose this property

I love the wild life with wandering deer, adorable foxes and other cute creatures. It’s awesome that the family has lots of room to fly kites or throw some balls. There is lots of room to jog too. The gated community provides extra privacy.

What makes this property unique

It feels like home, very cosy and comfortable. Of course, the wild life which is often seen. Very private location. Wonderful views.
