Lovely place right on Ave. of the Giants. Host was great. Place is quiet and beautiful. There are loop trails only a quarter of a mile away. I would highly recommend to everyone. My wife and I loved it here.

Host was very friendly and helpful. Although we only stayed one night, we had a full day of activities that accommodated both the young and old in our family. Holly (the host) suggested a walking trail through the redwoods that was amazing. Watching the stars from the hot tub was fantastic. The blackberry popsicle was a great going away treat. Will return next year.

Great place to unplug! Adorable, comfortable farm cottage. Well stocked kitchen. Tons of firewood and yard games. Very clean! The hot tub was perfect after a day of hiking. Would stay again in a heartbeat.

This place was absolutely perfect! Cozy, beautifully decorated with a well stocked kitchen and bathroom. Our kids enjoyed the hammock, makeshift ping pong table and waving hello to the sheep! Mel and Holly are incredibly nice and gave us great hiking and state park recommendations. This location is prime, as it puts you right in the middle of the redwoods on the north end of the Avenue of Giants. The Drury Cheney trail is within walking distance from the cottage and is a MUST! You can also walk to the Eel River and enjoy the valley views from the cottage. The hot tub is great after a long day of exploring and the beds are super comfortable. I didn't want to leave!

Hollis is a fantastic host and the property is amazing - several acres of veggies and if you're staying there you can pick your own dinner. Definitely would make this a destination stop!

Don't come for the pristine white walls, the shiny silver fixures, the cold concrete. This is a home with warm colors that glow when the sun comes up and shines through the clerestory windows, with small boquets of fresh flowers, with pastoral views of a working farm, with a hottub and billions of stars every night. It's a home with the owner living nearby who welcomes you and make sure your stay is perfect. It's a home nestled between towering redwoods protected in Redwood State Park on the beautiful Avenue of the Giants. So don't come if you like the hustle and bustle of a big city and all its amenities. Come here when you are ready to unwind, unplug, sip your coffee on the patio and listen to the birds sing, or soak in the hottub and see how many constellations you can name.

Thumbs up!

We really enjoyed the lovely house on a working farm. The house was clean and comfortable. It has high wood ceilings and everything we needed. We spent a lot of time outside on the deck taking in nature and the farm. The hosts are on site and very kind and helpful.

Home is exactly in the heart of the giants. A must for those looking to visit nature in the raw. The hot tub was wonderful, very clean and well kept. The house is cozy, there is no WiFi, and limited service. But it made up for it with the amenities. This place is for those looking to get away from the city and enjoy some hot coco, grilled or oven cooked food and good times with friends and family. The host are wonderful, we can’t wait to return.

We had a great time in the Redwoods. And the location of this property if perfect in Pepperwood. The Drury Cheney Trail is a must, 3 minutes from the house. No tv, totally unplugged from usual life for 4 days. The produce stand the owners have is outstanding! And it provided dinner for us two nights. The house had everything we needed. You won’t be disappointed.

Beautiful, quiet place close to the giant redwoods

The place was wonderful, quiet, and beautiful. We had a group of 5 and there was plenty of sleeping space for everybody. Lots of outdoor games set up around the yard and the gorgeous garden and free produce were a huge plus. The hot tub was a nice perk too. Would definitely stay again.

Our fourth visit here! That should say it all. The trees are only half the reason we come to the redwoods. We love staying at this vacation home. The vegetables and fruit at the farm are extraordinary. We love star gazing at night from the hot tub. We always bring steak and grill. This year we had an electric vehicle and were pleasantly surprised there was a Tesla charger we could use!!
