Lovely Stay

I stayed overnight for some peaceful alone time at this property. House was clean, nicely decorated and spacious. The little stream and forest outside added to the cozy cabin feel. Despite a local power outage, the owners provided generator power and were very accommodating. I will definitely stay again!

We loved this cottage! It was super clean, spacious, comfortable and had everything we needed for a perfect stay. The highlight was the very private deck overlooking the burbling creek and gorgeous trees. We’re already figuring out when we can come back.

Great cottage

Immaculate, cute, and well appointed. Loved listening to the creek and being able to make use of the kitchen and gas grill. Convenient for hiking-appreciated the washer and dryer! If you are coming from San Francisco, Roberts market is a great stop on the way over. La Honda market also has some staples. Highly recommend this cottage, wonderful relaxing stay.

Amazing Cabin

Wow what a great cabin! The place was very spacious and comfortable and had everything you might need in the kitchen. The location is in a great spot that is out of the city and was so peaceful and relaxing. Perfect spot to telex on the deck and listen to nature.
