Beautiful home

We loved the home. The views were spectacular. We enjoyed sitting on the deck at sunset, making dinners in the well appointed kitchen, and resting well in the bedrooms. Waking up with a view of the ocean was relaxing. We enjoyed our stay.

Great rental

Perfect for two couples with the two bedrooms at opposite ends of the house. Well equipped kitchen. Bathroom towel warmer was a nice bonus.

Elegant Simplicity

I liked everything about this place. The location, with a great view of the ocean, is great. The house itself is quite comfortable, and I really liked the layout and furnishings, all of which struck me as elegantly simple and open.

Beautiful home and property

This is a lovely home with wonderful views of the water and nearby cows, quail and a gray fox in the yard. The home is beautifully decorated with modern touches. The kitchen and bathrooms are well stocked. All soaps and laundry detergent are supplied. The house is very welcoming with large spaces.

As close to perfect as possible…

Wife and I in one BR, and another couple in the other. The views are so amazing that we were actually thankful for a rainy day and excuse to dig in and enjoy views from the house over a few bottles of vino and abandon the day’s activities

Lovely Piece of Paradise!

Nothing but good things to say about our stay at this property. As VRBO owners ourselves, we always have a keen eye on other properties when we travel. With this home, we were immediately impressed by the cleanliness, the furnishings and, of course, the view. Can't recommend highly enough and hope that others enjoy this unique home as much as we did.

Spring break retreat

Our group had a delightful time staying at Albion Ridge Overlook and we can't wait to return. The home is stunning and well appointed, with all of the mod cons. The proximity to everything Mendocino has on offer is unrivaled. We loved being tucked away in Albion away from the hustle and bustle of town or Ft Bragg. We enjoyed sitting on the deck watching the sunset and then waiting for the mass blanket of stars to appear. Such a relaxing and comfortable stay. My only complaint is that I eventually had to go home...! I highly recommend this lovely rental home.

WOW- truly spectacular / perfect setting

The home was amazing, from the open concept views to the outfitting of the home. The location was perfect. Minutes to canoeing, restaurants and all that the town of Mendocino has to offer, such as the artist paint off going on throughout the town while we were there. Back to the home, it was so open, yet cozy and the views, from the ocean, to the cows in hills to the gray fox that passed through daily were amazing. The home was completely outfitted and especially the well appointed kitchen although we choose to eat our meals out with so many choices close by, many with wonderful Ocean views as well. Oh and the cozy living room fireplace and incredible master bathroom with views from the shower and bath. WOW what a wonderful home and location. We will return and have shared the listing with friends. Its perfect for 2 couple's or in our case just us for our anniversary romantic.

House in Albion.

Loved the house and plan to make it our yearly destination. it was comfortable and beautiful close to many attractions.. Vacasa however was unflexible and rude. I needed to leave around 11:00 BECAUSE OF MY MEDICAL ISSUE, and still leave the house in very good condition, but was stressed and rushed to be forced to leave at 10 am . It would have cost them nothing to give me an extra hour since there were no other people arriving that day, and the entry time is a late 4 pm . Most places I have rented are 11am and 3 pm. That is more comfortable for the renter. The booking with them also was full of mistakes. we stayed 5 nights.

Beautiful property with some communication hiccups

We absolutely loved the place. We have AT&T and had no cell service which wouldn’t have been an issue except we loved the place so much we wanted to extend our stay! We booked through VRBO but Vacasa manages the property and there was NO way to communicate (Vacasa didn’t answer emails) short of driving to Mendocino for cell service. There was also a cleanliness issue with regard to the couch which was clearly missed by staff as the rest of the house was immaculate. We reported it and still have had no response.

Good - could be great

Nice 2BR home in good location. We've stayed in many properties in many countries and we've never encountered a house with NO heat in the Master Bath. It was chilly in June - January would be frigid. It would be a convenience if the management company would include a reasonable amount of dishwasher and washer tablets - it's not the cost, it's the bother. Finally, the management company is very institutional - a phone call is answered by an operator who has no familiarity with the property except what might be displayed on a computer screen.

As wonderful as pictured

The view from the back deck is amazing. We were not even aware of neighbors except for cows and horses up the block. The home is very bright and clean, with fantastic amenities. We cook a lot and the kitchen was perfect. The master bedroom doesn't get as warm as the rest of the house, but small issue that won't affect a return visit. We were "working from home" and had some connectivity worries, but we had no problems at all. We did bring a hotspot and used it only once in the smaller bedroom. The beds were super comfortable. I'm used to falling asleep with the tv on and the sleep button engaged, but there are no tvs in the bedrooms. Again, not a big deal. We did know in advance that the fireplace isn't working, but that would have been nice to have. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

A beautiful, thoughtful home in a breath-taking setting

Everything about our stay in this home was incredible. There was so much attention to detail, everything was very clean, and there were ammenities provided I wouldn't have even thought of. The photos online almost don't do it justice - as soon as I opened the front door I caught my breath at the view, how beautiful the home is, and the amazing feeling of stepping inside. This is, by far, the best experience I've had staying in a vacation rental home.

Albion Getaway

Our stay in Albion was the perfect escape. The home was spotless, modern, and offered breathtaking views of the ocean and rolling green hills. Each morning, we enjoyed watching cows graze peacefully on the hillside—a serene start to the day.We explored the local area, visiting the unique Glass Beach in Fort Bragg, riding the historic Skunk Train through majestic redwoods, and strolling through the beautiful Mendocino Coast Botanical Gardens. The nearby beach hikes provided stunning coastal vistas and a refreshing connection with nature.This rental provided a tranquil setting with easy access to memorable attractions. Highly recommended for anyone seeking relaxation and natural beauty.
