This was our second time staying in this home for our family vacation. Our family loves the accessibility of the beach, the food options just north in Brookings, OR and the SUNSETS! The host was quick to respond with any questions.

You can't be closer to the beach with this home! Our family of 6 had a wonderful time listening to the waves crashing on the beach below from every room in the house. Coffee in the morning on the deck was stunning; 180 degree views of miles of beach was something really special. The house was well stocked and the beds were comfy. Would totally stay here again.

You can’t ask for a more beautiful ocean view!! The beach was very nice and you could walk for miles. We saw seals while walking down the beach a short distance from the house. The beds were comfortable and there was space to spread out for our group. The kitchen is very well stocked. It is very close to Jedediah State park and the Prairie Creek Redwood State Parks to see the Redwoods. It is also about 1 1/2 hours from Trinidad for great sea kayaking. There were good places to eat nearby. Would highly recommend!! Just a note that the trail from the house to the beach is steep so not recommended if you have mobility issues.

The view was amazing from just about every room. The kitchen was set up great. There is so much room for lounging after a fun day at the beach. Brookings and Crescent city are close by. Jedediah Smith is close too. So many places to see and visit, but hard to leave the private beach. Our host responded quickly to any questions we had. We definitely plan to book again.

We could not have asked for a better house on the Pacific Ocean! It was perfect for our family! The place was clean, beds were comfortable, kitchen was stocked, water pressure was great, but the views were breathtakingly beautiful!! After some flight delays, we arrived much later than planned but Leo had the lights turned on for our arrival. Kitchen had basic needs such as paper towels, soaps, trash bags, spices and even a starter coffee pack. Very kind host. Sidenote for future travelers-Walmart delivery works here in case you dont want to leave to grocery shop. Believe me, there's SO much to do you won't want to waste time at the grocery store. Carl at Smith River Kayaking was phenomenal! Jedediah Smith Redwoods State Park was awesome! The drive to Trees of Mystery was worth it! Twisted had great steaks and Chart Room has the best fish 'n chips and blackberry cobbler. Relaxing on the deck watching the waves was a favorite of ours. Thanks again, Leo! Can't wait to come back!

Redwood NP getaway

Wonderful property just north of Redwood National Park with easy access to Crescent City, CA and the parks. We loved having the windows open at night to listen to the ocean waves. And on our last evening we had a bonfire on the beach. Great home for young adults/teens.

The property was clean and comfortable, with plenty of room for our group of 7. We enjoyed the provided binoculars, looking for seals and such. The water pressure was amazing. We found everything we needed in the kitchen. A choice of newer pillows would have been nice.

Beautiful view, stay was okay.

The house is nice, could use a little update, the owner seemed nice but a little intrusive, multiple emails on our three day stay, also he sent a person (repair person) to the house, she just walked right in the house we are staying in, didn’t knock or anything, we did not call for any repairs or assistance for anything. I loved the location, the house had plenty of towels and all we needed. Beds were comfortable.

Beautiful home ..Excellent location

We have stayed in many VRBO's over the past 20 years and we give this location a definite return too! It was spacious, well taken care of, lots to do , the kitchen was large ! We enjoyed the walks on the beach ... the steps were not to bad .. and we were so close to brookings for groceries, restaurants, music and shopping! We even walked the beach to the Oregon border and back which was only 4.25 miles! We will rent again in the future for sure!!

Parents 40th Anniversary Stay

My folks loved the home. Said it had lovely decor, was very clean, felt safe, had comfortable beds and amazingly views. They loved it. Being in their 70's the only issue was getting to work the tv. They had difficulty getting normal channels. Wanted to watch the Ducks game but couldn't figure it out. Thank you for sharing your lovely home.

Lovely spacious house. Loved the open kitchen/living room. Ocean view with access to a great beach (steep path but well maintained) . Well stocked kitchen (with the exception of a colander). Comfortable beds with king in master bedroom, full (king would be good instead) in downstairs bedroom, bunk beds in 3rd small bedroom. Bring your own Pack N Play if you need one. House met our expectations, well described in listing. Location good. Trees of Mystery close, shopping close, many beaches close. We would rent this house again.
