Location location location!

It was so close to everything we wanted to do. The house was beautiful and had plenty for my teens to do. Plenty of towels, beds were comfy. Living room was super cozy. Was the perfect relaxing getaway. Only thing that wasn’t perfect (and out of anyone’s control) was that walls are thin and you can hear everything going on anywhere in the house. But we sent the teens to the game room or sun room and all was well noise level wise. Great experience!

Lovely stay in Fort Bragg

Great property with all amenities (well stocked kitchen, plenty of games) and walking distance to the beach. We enjoyed watching the deer from the lovely backyard. Great location, close enough to town, friendly and highly responsive owners.

Fun in Fort Bragg

My mom and I (and our two fur babies) stayed here for a girl’s getaway weekend and had a great time! The location to the beach couldn’t be better and the house had beach chairs, bikes and tons of games! Kelly and Howard were great at responding to emails and texts and were wonderful to work with. The fenced backyard was an added bonus! We’ll be going back for sure!

About the host

Hosted by Kelly & Howard Royer

Howard and Kelly bought the North Coast Retreat several years ago and have been busy updating and enhancing the property. They live in the Bay Area and plan to use the property as a family vacation spot and private retreat upon retirement. The property and area provide them soul replenishment from busy lifestyles and work schedules. During hot summer days, the ocean breeze is refreshing/cooling and the clean air is beneficial during the bad air quality days now common in California during wild fire season.

Why they chose this property

The location is premium! Ward Avenue wraps along the ocean front with direct beach access in several areas. Many homes in the neighborhood are vacation rentals or family owned retreats. When there is fog in the downtown area of Fort Bragg or nearby Mendocino, the blue skies of this neighborhood are appreciated. The property is located outside of the city limits, with a rural type setting. The property has a detached cottage, which is sometimes rented. An RV site at rear of then property is for occasional use by owners; it has previously been rented on VRBO.

What makes this property unique

The home has a sun room that can be used as a game room with board games, dart board with darts, ping pong table with paddles and balls, ladder ball set, croquette, bocce ball, corn hole game, and beach toys provided for use. The property has a park like backyard that has deer, many varieties of birds, and other wildlife to watch daily. The home has a private gated back yard as well, with a deck, patio furniture, and a BBQ.
