About this property

Cozy Oceanfront European Cottage-Deck & Fire Pit

Summary:

Le Faux Cottage



Find romance, relaxation, and stunning scenery at Le Faux, one-bedroom suite, with a dramatic oceanfront view, private deck and fire pit on the bluff overlooking the water. This is a wondrous location for exploring the Mendocino Coast. This beautiful cottage is secluded on six acres of oceanfront property that it shares with the owners home.



The Space:

Whether you are celebrating a honeymoon, a birthday, or a quiet weekend of solitude, you'll find rich colors and beautiful European style in the redecorated living space. Start your morning in the kitchenette with a great cup of coffee then go out on the private deck and read your phone or newspaper while watching the passing whales, osprey, and harbor seals as seagulls fly lazily overhead.



Take morning walks one-mile up the road to the Mendocino Coast Botanical Gardens, admire colorful shores of Glass Beach just beyond downtown Fort Bragg and peruse the many Art Galleries of Mendocino. Use the free WiFi to make plans for the day ahead, or simply drive aimlessly on the spectacular Mendocino Coast of Highway 1.



Come home in the afternoon to unwind by taking a luxurious nap in the Louis XVI bed, or head outdoors to watch the sunset from your oceanfront lounge chairs. Then pour yourself a glass of wine before a blazing fire in the fire pit then spend the evening stargazing as the ocean waves crash below. Come and experience the unmatched wonder of the Northern California Coast - leave your worries behind you at this gorgeous Fort Bragg retreat! This themed cottage has many thoughtful touches including bath robes, blankets, and breathtaking views!

Great weekend getaway

The property is beautiful! Im sad it rained all weekend and l couldn't use the fire pit. The attention to detail was spot on! The owners take great pride in the quaint cottage. It really is impressive and I've been staying at rental houses for almost 20yrs on the northern coast. Id like to say we'll be back but we are moving east, this qas goodbye to our place in our hearts!

Wonderful small cabin in a phenomenal location with stunning views

Le Faux is the real deal

We were looking for a peaceful place near the ocean and away from town and this cottage was perfect. Located on a large gated property situated on an ocean-front bluff and separate from the main house (seemingly vacant during our stay), this place was perfect for two. Watch the ocean waves from bed, read outside on the small deck, enjoy quiet nights -- exactly the privacy and beauty we were seeking. We would definitely stay here again.

Ideal waterview with cozy cottage

We loved the sunrises and sunsets from our special patio by the sea. The cottage was comfortable and well-appointed. The home owners nextdoor couldn't have been more welcoming while respecting our privacy. We enjoyed eating several meals on the deck and more wine than we care to admit on the chaise lounges by the sea.

Beautiful spot with reservations

Water leak under thrushhold , spider bite my wife on first night, motion lights don’t work properly. The cottage itself was darling. Well secluded, and the view was spectacular, just what we wanted. We would stay again when we could build a fire, grill hot dogs, and dine on the porch, in better weather.
