Excellent location in Trinidad, a stone’s throw from the best restaurant in Trinidad. Very clean and tidy cottage. Surrounding neighborhood is cute and quiet. Trinidad is a unique gem! Five stars for the price!

We love to hear you enjoyed the wonderful convenience of staying at our lovely Crabber's Cottage! Thank you for the kind review we look forward to welcoming you back in the future!
Crabber’s was a base for our exploration of Redwood Nat’l and State Parks. Trinidad is a charming little hamlet. The cottage is steps away from a restaurant and a very good cafe (Beachcomber). Most of the town is perched on top of a serious hill, so the “walk to the beach” is strenuous. Super easy access to US101. Very good intel on local attractions, all of which are half an hour away, max.

It's a wonderful little house perfect for a couple with everything you need for a great stay. Trinidad is a wonderful NoCal beach town. Trinidad State Beach is close by. It's not far from Arcata and Eureka.

CC is in-town, and walkable to all that the town of Trinidad has to offer. Only thing that would add to the quality would be a channel guide for the tv/cable and a washer/dryer combo. Overall, a clean place to stay.

Great little place in an area very close to great redwood forest.

Crabbers cottage was extremely comfortable and close to everything in the fantastic beach town of Trinidad. I’d definitely stay there again as it was a great base to explore the Redwoods.
