Really enjoyed the location to walk into town. The home was very comfortable and quiet with a nice yard. It was also a great base to see a lot of the redwood parks and drive the scenic beach routes. The host was lovely. Wouldn’t change a thing.

Great for families with kids

We loved it there! Well designed house, amazing large backyard, very nice hosts. Carlos and Marylin were very welcoming and answered all our questions!
Response from VrboOwner on 25 March 2020
The house is great for all ages - convenient, comfortable, secluded yet close to town. But it is special for small children, lots of room to romp around outside, a playset, a little natural history experience too, and it has easy access to the redwoods, ocean and rivers. I am very glad these guests found us.
