Very clean and spacious house. Impressed with how complete the kitchen was stocked with dishes and cooking utensils. Nice and quiet location, but near Fort Bragg and a lot of state parks. The little store just down the road was surprisingly well stocked for overlooked items.

The location of the property was great — nestled in a quiet neighborhood, which made for peaceful mornings and restful nights. We also appreciated how close it was to local attractions and amenities.Unfortunately, our stay was affected by a few significant issues. The downstairs area had an overwhelming moldy, musty smell that made it uncomfortable to spend time there. It seemed persistent and not just a matter of airing out the space.Additionally, we were surprised to find a camera on the property that had not been disclosed in the listing. This made us feel uneasy and raised concerns about privacy during our stay. While the setting had potential, these issues prevented us from fully enjoying the experience fully.

Simply amazing! This was our fifth time spending a week at Chateau Cleone with the family. I can't say enough about how wonderful this home and the hosts are. Yes in a great location close to beaches and shopping yet private. The home is perfect as it is clean comfortable and has been well maintained and is stocked for most anything you need. The hot tub nestled in the redwoods is amazing and we look forward to coming back next year!

Another wonderful family vacation at Chateau Cleone! For the last six years we have stayed here for a week at a time and thoroughly enjoyed every aspect of this wonderful home in a wonderful location! Fort Bragg and the Mendocino coast is our favorite place to be with family and friends. Chateau Cleone is far enough from town to be quiet and private, but close enough to make a quick trip to grab a meal or groceries. The home is well equipped, 3 bedrooms and a bonus room all have crazy comfortable beds, (bonus room looks to have a hide a bed but we never used it.) Plenty of extra pillows, blankets and cushions to make other beds! Kitchen and propane BBQ are well equipped and we don't need to bring anything but food, they have great pans, dishes, utensils and appliances to make any stay better. The hot tub is my favorite part, it is a nice Hot Spring Vanguard situated in a private garden area with towering redwoods all around it making it feel like you are in a private forest!! The home is very close to Ward beach, a great sandy beach that is a blast to hang out on and explore! A short walk or drive to the Cleone store and you have all you need nearby... I can't say enough good things about this home or the hosts. The few interactions we have had have been wonderful and friendly. They strive to protect your privacy but are just a VRBO message away if you had a need or a question. I have already booked for 2026 and hope to be back with our kids and their kids soon!
Looking up from in the hot tub!!!

Private home

We were close by to everything, but still felt like a secluded space with lots of privacy. The house was large and outfitted with everything we could have wanted. Extra blankets in the closet, firewood, and all of the amenities.

Spacious and Comfortable

Spacious and comfortable, with a kitchen stocked with a great variety of cooking supplies (although, oddly, no dinner-size plates). We especially loved sitting on the west-facing deck on sunny afternoons. The heating system is a bit loud, but with the moderate temperatures at Fort Bragg, heat really wasn't necessary. We just used it briefly to take the chill off. As others have mentioned, the hot tub encircled by redwoods was magical!Definitely recommended!

I liked this place but the crown jewel, the hot tub in the grove of trees, was inoperable. I tried to call, email, and text the owners but they didn’t get back to me until about a week after I left.

Perfect family getaway in the redwoods

We really enjoyed our stay! Perfect for our family of 5 including 3 teenage boys. The hot tub under the redwoods was our favorite part. Our boys enjoyed the sunroom for gaming . The kitchen is well appointed. The only issue is that the wifi can be spotty. Very close to glass beach . Comfy beds .

About the host

Host profile image
Aloha,
We recently relocated to this beautiful community from the Big Island of Hawaii. We lived on the island for 35 years where we raised our family and fully enjoyed the island style of living. When we retired, though, we knew it was time for a change.
Back in California after all those years in Puna, Volcano, and Kona, we now enjoy the proximity of children, grandchildren and extended family.

Why they chose this property

Like Kona, Fort Bragg is a spectacular Pacific Coast community. This property offers space, beauty, redwoods, wildlife, and comfort.
