About this property
Quiet Cabin on 5 Acres Minutes From Mendocino and Ocean
This 700 square foot cabin is located on 5 secluded acres and was designed and built entirely by the owners. The cabin includes many special touches such as open beamed ceilings milled with local redwood. The cabin has tons of natural light. A gas stove provides cozy heat and ambiance with the push of a button. There are also electric heaters in the bedroom and bathroom for additional warmth.
Enjoy a hot outdoor shower for two, an indoor claw foot bathtub and a compact yet full kitchen. The bedroom is outfitted with a Queen bed. There is also a twin bed which is perfect for kids. The bedroom is situated on the upper floor with treetop and sky views. The bathroom and main living area is below and opens to redwood deck with outdoor seating. Please note the flight of stairs between the bedroom and bathroom.
We are very kid friendly. Feel free to let your little ones explore the property and use the swing tucked in the forest.
Jackson State Forest is our next door neighbor. There is a trail that leads from the property into the forest and we will leave you a map. Located ten minutes north of Mendocino and ten minutes south of Fort Bragg and five minutes from what we think is the best beach in the area.

This home couldn’t have been more perfect for our family of three. Warm, welcoming, spotless and on a beautiful property. We loved being surrounded by bird song with a great proximity to some gorgeous trails. Dreaming of when we can come back!
Loved the house! Perfect for small family. My wife and I stayed there and we loved the trees outside and also the outdoor showers. Will definitely be visiting again soon!
We thoroughly enjoyed the secluded beauty of this property. The hosts, Jake and Lindy, were helpful when we had questions, and the information packet about the property and local activities and restaurants was great. We could walk to endless hiking trails in the Jackson Demonstration Forest. Mendocino county is spectacular.
Loved our stay. The owners were very responsive & the home was perfect for our needs. The beds were comfortable & we enjoyed the outdoor showers after beach time.
Great property, super clean and secluded. Loved the time there with my wife, was surprised to see that we could ride to some amazing mountain and gravel bike trails directly from the cabin. Can’t recommend enough for hikers or bikers.

So glad you had a nice stay and thanks for the great review!
This quiet and cozy setting in the forest provided a wonderfully restful experience. The cottage is well-stocked, clean and beautifully built. The furnishings are very comfortable. The owners obviously put much love and attention to every detail which makes this rental our most favorite ever. The outdoor showers were unique and fun. The location is amazing, being between Mendocino and Fort Bragg, so we could explore both areas easily. We would love to visit again.
The property is tucked away and secluded. While we didn’t directly interact with the hosts, they were gracious and attentive, providing a welcome basket of small snacks and taking care to make sure the cabin had all the amenities to facilitate a relaxing stay. The beds were comfortable and the atmosphere relaxing. The property is directly adjacent to a state park with a select variety of trails, and a short drive to the ocean and nearby towns. I highly recommend it for a cozy getaway.
So glad we chose this property! The owners are great and the cabin is just the right size and location. It has everything you need to make you feel comfortable and right at home.
