Very comfortable home with a gorgeous outside deck over looking the Smith River. Many thoughtful updates and comfy beds/sofa. Once the carpets are switched out the price will match the home. Wish there was access to the river, but understand the landscape makes it very difficult. Would definitely come back.

This a beautiful midcentury modern gem!! It’s so peaceful! Coffee n the deck overlooking the river was my favorite way to start the day! We saw ducks sunning themselves several mornings. Swimming at the river point access and the Grove of the Titans at Jedediah Smith State park was our favorites! Trees of Mystery was also a fun day trip. The kitchen is perfect to prepare your own meals! Very nicely appointed vacation home, thank you!!

We rented this house based solely on the description stating it had direct river access only to arrive and discover it did not have direct river access. Examples of this language, pulled directly from the listing, include: - On the beach: A rare beachfront property in the area - enjoy direct access to the sand and sea.- Popular amenities: On the beach- 1 min walk to Smith River- Location type: Beachfront On River, Waterfront: On the Smith River- About the area: Located in Gasquet, this vacation home is in a rural area and on the beach.”The house itself was nice but please be advised you cannot access the river directly from the house.

We adored our stay at this amazing home. It is conveniently located to the Northern Redwoods State Park area and Jedediah Smith Park and it sits on the cleanest river in the lower US. However, you must know you cannot access the river from the house, but access is close by. The house itself is decorated very nicely in mid century modern style with very comfortable furniture and mattresses. The kitchen is INCREDIBLY well stocked with a beautiful Italian gas range and every gadget and you could ever need. We hope to make it back again!

The home was built in 1948. We’ve taken great effort to mindfully preserve its original integrity, but have modernized the bathrooms and the kitchen is state of the Art and has been completely remodeled, with state-of-the-art appliances and high-quality finishes. I’m sorry you found it “dated,” we’ve never had a guest suggest that.

Place was nice and had everything there to use. We had a great stay, all though we weren't there during the daytime cause we were fishing Great fishing by the way! We did notice long hairs on the toilet seat that when we came back and felt like someone was there while we were gone. (weird...) besides that great place.

Thank you for staying with us. As regards the the toilet, we pride ourselves on keeping an immaculate property and it’s an unfortunate that something like this could’ve occurred. Seems quite odd?

Bit difficult getting in as there was no gate code numbers on our check in information . Tried 4 times to get him.after we were settling in he called my husbands number.Once we crawled under the gate and got inside I found the gate code in information book so we get our vehicle in. . the owner suggested I take over his vrbo website.... then he told us to watch the white carpet because his wife would get mad. The carpet was heavily stained ... otherwise a lovely place and we enjoyed the place and the location.

Thank you for your review. The gate code was a Vrbo website glitch, for some reason the code was not provided as usual. This is the first time this has ever happened and has not happened since. As regards to the carpet, the previous guest prior to your stay, left several stains, which are being professionally cleaned. We pride ourselves on maintaining and an impeccably clean property, and we apologize for that condition.

Three friends came to bask in the beauty of the redwoods and this house felt more like a home. Beautiful quiet location. Private rooms for each of us and a dream kitchen for us to cook in. We were out so much I wished we were home more to enjoy the house and backyard. I would love to stay here again.
