We had a very relaxing and enjoyable stay. We walked the bluffs each day and often stopped at the Sea Ranch Lodge (20 minutes south) for an afternoon treat. We went to the Annapolis winery, the chapel and several stops in Gualala for food and galleries. It’s a wonderful place to unwind in natures beauty.

Wonder Experience on the Pacific

My wife and I loved our time in the cabin. It was clean and comfortable. Most importantly, it had a beautiful view of the Pacific, whether you were looking from the large front window or relaxing on the deck. The cabin was also a wonderful starting point to explore Mendocino County. The folks at the Anchor Bay store were extremely helpful and kind. I would highly recommend the Hi-Tor cabin.

The cabin and location were fine. Cabin was very clean. However, there is no cell phone service, and the internet did not work until we were more than halfway through our stay. The TV never did work. We had to go into town to be able to communicate with the rental agency and even though they gave instructions on how to reset everything we had to go back into town to communicate more. (We are very tech savvy and had already tried all of their suggestions.) They finally sent a person to try to fix everything but he was unable to get anything working. Several of the batteries for the remote controls for the fireplace and lights were dead and the repair person didn't have replacements. The heat is only from electrical fireplaces is barely adequate.

Great Weekend Getaway

Property is very well maintained! It was easy to check in and out and the amenities, rooms, etc. were as described. The views are amazing and it was fun to just chill on the deck and enjoy the birds and surroundings.
