About this property

Crabber's Cottage - Walk to Beach, In Town, Comfortable

Crabber’s Cottage offers a quiet, comfortable stay in the heart of Trinidad, just steps from the best the town has to offer. Bay, ocean, and pier views are just around the corner, and nearby trails provide easy access to Trinidad Head, Trinidad State Beach, and Old Home Beach. Guests will also enjoy being within easy walking distance of local favorites, including The Eatery and The Beachcomber.

This newly remodeled one-bedroom cottage accommodates up to two guests and features a king bed for a restful night’s sleep. For guests who prefer separate sleeping arrangements, the living room includes a new queen sofa sleeper and a Smart T.V., a perfect way to unwind after a long day of hiking. The space is thoughtfully decorated with charm and simplicity, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere. The kitchenette is equipped with a microwave, toaster oven, and coffee maker, ideal for light meal preparation (please note there is no stove or oven).

The cottage also includes a spacious full bathroom and convenient driveway parking. With its prime location near town dining, beaches, and the redwoods, Crabber’s Cottage offers excellent value for travelers seeking comfort, simplicity, and convenience.

For those looking to explore beyond town, Prairie Creek Redwoods State and National Parks are just a 30-minute drive away, offering more than 100 miles of scenic trails through ancient redwood forests, including the iconic Fern Canyon.

Long Weekend

We were up in the area for the trails and beach, so didn’t spend much time at the place. But what time we did spend there was great. Awesome location and a perfect place to call home for a few nights. Thanks for such a great spot.
