About this property

Best Ocean View on the Mendocino Coast

This home has just been remodeled with a gourmet kitchen, 3 bedrooms and 3 custom bathrooms. The Master suite walks out onto the deck with a hot tub just steps away. The views from the Master and the living spaces are like no other. Everyone that comes to visit cant believe how wonderful the views and the remodel is done with high end finishes. Watch the sea crashing all around, children playing on the beach,, birds soar by the edge of the cliffs and sunsets are never missed with the over 180 degree view. I dedicated the last 1 1/2 years to making the home as wonderful as the surroundings. I think you'll agree, this is a dream come true .....

The house was clean and comfortable and included all of the kitchen essentials needed to prepare great meals during our stay. We were lulled to sleep by the sound of the ocean waves each night in super comfortable beds. The views of the beach during the day and the starry skies each night were outstanding.

Gorgeous home with incredible ocean views.

One of the best homes we've ever stayed in. Beautifully layed out floor plan, beautiful furniture and really enjoyed firing up the wood burning stove. The deck views of the ocean had us in awe. We couldn't be more pleased with our stay there and our host was kind and always available to help. Highly recommend staying here!

Visit the Redwoods

I brought my family to visit the Redwood Forest and the Avenue of the Giants. The house was a great home base for our trip. Plenty of room for all of us and the beach right next door was great.

The Ultimate Ocean View!

The property owner was a pleasure to work with and the house sits on an outcropping over the northern tip of Ten Mile Beach. We have stayed in the Mendocino/Fort Bragg area for decades but never, NEVER did we stay on a property we didn't want to leave due to it's unparalleled beauty! A lovely, well kept property that made the stay with multiple guests very comfortable and relaxing. Couldn't recommend a property more. A sparkling jewel of the Northern California coast!

Everyone is Right.....

....this is a fantastic place to stay. We were a family of six -- grandparents, parents and grandkids. We had everything we needed at the house and were endlessly entertained at the beach. The hot tub was great; the views were beyond spectacular. The house itself was very well-kept and extra clean. Do not hesitate to stay here. We are so glad we did.

Soothing Ocean Retreat

My initial conversation with Daryl was wonderful and set the tone for our whole trip. The pictures and words cannot the actual property. From the relaxing ocean sounds that lul you to sleep, to the sounds of the morning birds. The house has been completely remodeled. Upgrades are first class and we all felt right at home as soon as we arrived. Than you Daryl!!!

As advertised

The location of this property (view-wise) is exceptional. The owner did a nice job with the remodel, and the interior of the house is up-to-date and attractive, with some really nice touches (e.g. a window in the shower that looks out to the coast line.). The kitchen is well furnished. The hot tub works well and has a great view down the coast. There is a gas grill for barbecuing. There was a problem with the lockbox for the key, so we had to wait for about 45 minutes for the housekeeper (who also couldn't open the lockbox) to come with a spare key when we first arrived. (The owner was responsive to the problem, and took care of it ASAP, but the property is about 20 minutes out of Fort Bragg.) It is definitely a splurge, price-wise, but with good weather to enhance the ocean views, it is a unique and special property.

Best stay in Fort Bragg!

Our family stayed here for an extended weekend and were absolutely blown away by this place. Not your regular rental. Quality home from top to bottom. Great for staying in and cooking for your group or close enough to town to go to one of many restaurants to enjoy. Well-equipped kitchen with quality appliances, plenty of seating to enjoy each other’s company. Wanted to bring my bed home with me it was so comfortable. Bedrooms were beautiful and each has their own bathroom and built solidly, unlike a lot of rentals where you feel like the walls are made of cardboard. I saved the best for last, THE VIEWS! Absolutely incredible. You are on a peninsula overlooking the ocean and the view is like no other. Sitting in the hot tub with a cocktail in the evening and watching the sunset was epic. Had an absolutely wonderful time and Deryl, the owner, was responsive and a great resource for things to do and places to go. Highly recommend!!!

The property was clean. Recently remodeled. Right on the ocean.

However you best like dogs and Darryl, the owner. The dogs and Darryl are present everyday. The dogs come to house every morning and soon comes Darryl. He lives on the property so plan on vacationing with him if you rent this place. If you want privacy, choose another place. He comes in the house when you leave the home. He told us he came in twice to close windows because meth addicts live in the area and he has been robbed 3 times-his words. I broke a cheap plastic white chair [maybe $20 max] and we inadvertently took one towel. He kept $325 of our damage deposit to replace the chair and buy a new SET of towels. Very greedy evaluation by Darryl. Nice view though.

I don’t want to give a review as it would then be almost impossible to rebook. We absolutely loved the home and the surrounding area. If you like quiet, like to cook and sit outside with a glass of wine you have come to the right place. For us it was very special. Beds very comfortable, hot tub over looking the beach what can I say. We will try and rebook with our fingers crossed.

Daryl’s home is beautiful with stunning views of the ocean and sunsets. He was a very responsive host and check-in was easy if you follow the directions. The home was clean and comfortable. The only suggestion we have is to add a topper to the bed closest to the kitchen, as it is extremely firm and none of us could sleep on it. We thoroughly enjoyed the hot tub with breath-taking views of the ocean, and also loved cooking our meals on the BBQ and/or Thermador stove!

Amazing Ocean Views

We loved staying at this clean and well-cared for home, which was located in a peaceful, private, breathtaking location right on an ocean cliff overlooking a beach. The home was very comfortable, well-furnished, and had plenty of towels and blankets. We had everything we needed to prepare meals in the kitchen. The living room and master bedroom had multiple large windows that looked out to the ocean and beach, and we were delighted to watch the ever changing tides, ocean views, sea life, and beautiful sunsets. There are binoculars provided in the living room, and we saw a sea otter scampering on the beach one morning! The beach was easily accessed with a two minute drive from the house and a small parking area. We had great communication with the host, Deryl, who had wonderful tips about places to see in Fort Bragg and the surrounding area.
