Once in a lifetime stay!

This was the prettiest place we’ve ever stayed. The cottage was wonderfully decorated and very comfortable. The views from the patio and picture windows were unbelievable. Beautiful grounds and perfect location. Communication with our hosts was excellent. This place spoils me for any other rental I might ever visit.

Slice of Heaven

I can’t describe in words the amazing view from this studio. We were mesmerized! The bed was comfortable, there was an abundant supply of towels, pillows, blankets and TP. Even the view from the indoor shower is amazing. The lovely extra touches: a bottle of wine, cookies, box of crackers and meat & cheese were the cherry on top. We will be back, thank you Karen & Barry!

Spectacular home with amazing views

Such a beautiful home. The location is perfect, a short drive to either Mendocino or Fort Bragg. Everything has been thought of for a relaxing get away. A nice card with a bottle of wine and home baked cookies awaited our arrival. Beautifully clean, well appointed, loved the hand made quilts. Hard to put the view into words, what an experience. Thank you for sharing your beautiful home!

Serenity now

Waking up to that beautiful view every morning was absolutely dreamy and listening to the waves as we fell asleep each night was exactly what we were longing for! Hosts were very accommodating when I asked if they had a blender we could borrow to make baby food for my grandchild who was staying elsewhere in Mendocino. We will def return to stay at their comfortable and relaxing place.
