The Fish House - Midcentury Modern - Walk to Beach
Comfortable home with 1956 charm, but remodeled with all new windows, tile floors and carpet. The kitchen is basic yet functional and still has its original pink and brown tile. Two bedrooms have queen sized beds and the den has a double sized foldout sofa. The third bedroom has a twin sized bed. There are two bathrooms, one with the original yellow tile from 1956 which has been refreshed, and the other has been totally remodeled with a tiled walk-in shower. Set on over four acres, this home has a large yard with deer and birds to view. There is a blue water ocean view from the deck, and the beach is a quick 10 minute walk away. MacKerricher State Park sits between this home and the ocean. This is a great place for families with kids or for couples to share.

We had a wonderful stay.Everything well cared for and thoughtfully appointed. The rhododendrons in full bloom and the eagle's nest were an added bonus!
very peaceful ,lots of space , my grandson, family and the dogs loved the big yard to play soccer and football.The private beach was awesome and not too far to walk.My daughter loved all the books and left a note in the guess book
We loved our stay at the Fish House. The property huge and is well manicured. The house is in great shape and clean. We rode our bikes 10min to the beach each day. Looking forward to staying again soon!
We had a fabulous time at the fish house. Lots of space for all of us. Loved the back porch to sit and enjoy the view. It was great to have so many amenities. We would definitely stay there again.
Wonderful countryside home, quiet, walkable to beach, 5 min drive to town/groceries, comfortable beds, peaceful deck, fun record player and book collection, everything one needs for a relaxing stay...would absolutely stay again!
We loved this property! It’s conveniently located close to town, the beach, and the Skunk Train. The house was very cozy, we loved all the books, decor and hearing the ocean from the deck. Everything was very clearly labeled, which was handy and made everything straight forward and easy. The best part for us is that it was dog friendly! We all had a great trip and are talking about coming back already.
Lovely house, great view and location was perfect. Was a quick-ish walk to the beach, easy to get into town, and clean and comfortable. Would stay here again!
We had a wonderful stay at The Fish House, watching sunset from the back patio and waking up to deer in the yard. It’s a charming and welcoming place to stay while enjoying Fort Bragg. We also appreciated our easy check-in and checkout.
What a wonderful and quiet location! The cool ocean air was perfect. The location of the house was within walking distance of the beach. We had a great time!
Very nice place to stay location is great! Big yard for the dog to play with wonderful views. They keep this place very clean and we would like to stay there again.
This was a wonderful house to make our mother daughter road trip so memorable. Wonderful location with views of land that will never be developed and of the ocean that you can hear and see in the distance. House was just as described. Clean and comfortable. The outside yard is perfect for dogs to run around and explore. We are already talking of coming back! Thank you for a wonderful time!
We wish we booked more than 7 nights at the Fish House. In fact, we’d love to buy the place and move in. It is just perfect for a relaxing, comfortable stay where you can enjoy the sight and sounds of the ocean, watch the sun set into the sea, and walk to the beach. This house has everything you’ll need, including plenty of soap, shampoo, conditioner and body wash. The frog serenade at night was so relaxing. Thanks for sharing your beautiful home with us. We will be back!
Fish house is such a sweet and warm house. It’s quiet, beautiful and well appointed. Everything is clearly labeled and well organized! We love being able to walk to the beach.
Very comfortable. Easy to be in. Would rent this place again

About the host
Hosted by Marilyn Anderson
My husband and I recently retired to Fort Bragg, my husband's home town. He grew up in this house, and after his mother passed away, we decided to keep it in the family and use it as an extra home for when family visits and also as a vacation rental.
Why they chose this property
This home has been owned by my husband's family since 1959, and we are pretty attached to it and want to honor its history. It is a very comfortable home which holds many wonderful memories.
What makes this property unique
This home has lots of charm with its redwood ceilings, beams and lots of paneling. The setting is quiet and woodsy, but it is still easy to run into Fort Bragg to shop and eat.
