Return visit just as pleasant

We were last here in October. This time, besides all the birds, we got to watch baby seals on the island across from the house. It is a lovely, calming home that is very well maintained.

Amazing view!

The view is truly special - both river and ocean! We loved watching the seals, otters, and changing tides. The house is lovely, clean, and so thoughtfully appointed. The owner and property manager were responsive and helpful. We would absolutely come again!

Relaxing

We came to relax and that's exactly what we did. Amazing view and easy access to beach. Loved watching all the seals on the beach. Bed's were very comfortable and just a very nice home. We will come back.

Nature and relaxation

Before we were halfway through our stay we decided we wanted to book a return visit. When we found that the Vrbo availability calendar didn't extend far enough, Nate (the friendly and very helpful manager) got it sorted out in short order. Great facilities, great service, and for us, an incredible environment. One of us is an avid birder, and the other has a professional background in coastal oceanography and hydrology. The location on the edge of a narrow channel where the ocean waves meet the river outflow and there is a nearby island with a seal colony and many many birds kept us entranced through 3+ days and many tide changes. We made brief excursions to Brookings and Crescent City, but were so comfortable in the house that we felt little urge to go elsewhere. Bring your binoculars and telephoto lens and watch the show. When the fog comes in, the hot tub awaits.
