About this property

ROMANTIC, ARTISTS PRIVATE 'FOREST SUITE', 5 acres Redwoods, Trails, Mendo 2 mi.

"Nothing comes closer to perfect than Jen's place."

Forest Suite is located just a few minutes south from the village of Mendocino on 5 acres of beautiful redwoods. This 550 sq. ft. apartment plus 200sq ft deck, is upstairs from my 2,000 sq. ft artist’s studio, which is not in use when guests are staying. Built entirely with redwood, recycled fir and barn wood with cement counters and shower this romantic getaway is a very special spot.

The south wall is all windows facing the deck with deck chairs and a table with two chairs for dining overlooking the surrounding towering redwiids. It’s very peaceful and sunny and is frequented by honeymooners, artists, writers and those seeking total privacy. A few books and screenplays have been written here!

There is an eclectic book and DVD library to enjoy, internet, Direct TV and some boardgames. For your comfort there is a cozy gas fireplace, a ceiling fan, a standing fan and removable window screens in the hall closet. The kitchen is fully stocked and there are also yoga mats and weights for your use.

Take a walk through the forest; you will see a TRAIL sign by the driveway which will take you through the property and out onto Gordon Lane for a longer walk. There is a bench along the trail and also a deck in the trees for yoga or meditation, or just relax at the Suite and enjoy the tranquility.

I hope to have you to stay!!

The forest suite is surrounded by gorgeous trees which provide a beautiful view from inside the suite and on the deck. The host was a super great communicator throughout my stay. It is close the community of Mendicino as well as Fort Bragg, where the ocean views are spectacular. I highly recommend this place!

Me and my husband were looking for a Fall Break escape so we decided to book this place. We both enjoyed the place as it was peaceful and quiet. The only thing is when we arrived the coffee pot had leftover coffee and and was not washed. Other than that we liked the location that it was surrounded by Redwood Trees. The place was easy to navigate and Jen was very responsive. We had a very relaxing time.

This is the perfect place to stay if you’re visiting the Fort Bragg area! It’s close to town, but just far enough away that you still have total privacy and quiet! We loved it!

Everything was absolutely perfect. The space was clean, beautiful, peaceful, charming, it was just perfect. We will definitely be coming back, we came for our anniversary and both of our birthdays. Jen was incredible, she was responsive the entire time, and answered all of our questions quickly. We had left an item and she had it shipped back to us which was above and beyond expectations. We did a 50 mile bike ride and the suite was right on the map which was perfect, two minute drive to all of the shops, restaurants, and coffee shops. It was so close we ran to coffee one morning, could not recommend enough.

What makes this property unique

The proximity to Mendocino village, the privacy and total silence other than birds and the sound of the wind in the redwoods makes this place perfect for those that are seeking refuge. It instills creativity and thought, peace and harmony. From the front door you can walk through your own forest or go on a long walk down Gordon Lane and across State Park to the headlands.
