Another Great Family Stay

This was the second time renting this place for a family get together. We enjoy the close to town but secluded location. We love the beach access and tranquil creek sounds. It makes for a great location for our large family. One of our favorite places to stay on the north coast.

A get-away in the woods

We enjoyed our stay in Trinidad! The house is tucked away in the woods with a short walk to the beach and minutes away from the store or dining options. We stayed here as we explored the redwoods. Our teens enjoyed their own space as well as the hot tub, pinball machine and pool table. I think it might be harder as a family with little kids with bedrooms spread out, but it worked for us.

A very enjoyable weekend

This place was perfect for my group. Lots of bedrooms and space to spread out. The only complaint was the hot tub.....the temperature was not turned up and only one set of jets worked. Other than that, everything was great.

Would stay here again!

Absolutely loved this place! It's very unique with an odd layout, but feels very homey and comfortable. It also feels very private but is within walking distance to restaurants, gift shops, a grocery store, and the beach. There were so many more amenities compared to previous rentals we have stayed at. My nerdy husband and I really enjoyed playing the Star Wars pinball machine together.

Great Family Getaway

We stayed here five rainy days with our four adult children and two of their spouses. We couldn't be happier with our stay. Even though the weather didn't allow us to spend as much outdoor time as we would've liked, the house and game room allowed us to make some great family memories. Their was plenty of room for all of us (we did rent the mother-in-law quarters) for creating memories, cooking, eating, and playing games.

Home Sweet Home

My sister and I grew up in Trinidad and there were a lot of elements to the property that brought back fond memories. Very quiet neighborhood with lush surroundings and short walk to the beach. The rooms are far enough apart that the light sleepers of our group and no issues with noises keeping them awake. Including the bedroom next the game room (- the pinball machine down stairs).

Redwoods Family Vacation

There's a lot of good about this place but also a lot of bad. The good is that the place is spacious enough for a grown family of 10 and the management staff is very communicative. The cleanliness of this property though needs much work. In every room of the home there were cobwebs in every corner you could think of. It's normal to believe you're going to see a few spiders as we were in nature but not to this magnitude. My daughter woke up with two spiders right over her head, the bathroom we found a huge spider and on the ceiling of the bathroom were a multitude of baby spiders. In addition to this there is someone who remains on the property at all times. That part is fine however we felt like we were being babysat. If we got in the spa he was there right away to add something to the spa. If we were a little too loud he was there telling us to be quiet. It just didn't seem very reasonable for the amount of money paid for this place. Finally as I was there I got sick. I can't blame this place but in the detached King suite it stunk like bug spray the entire time we were there. I starteda feeling better after a bike ride that we took in the redwoods but I knew as soon as I went to bed that night it was possible things would reignite and sure enough they did. This could be due to climate change but I have a speculation that whatever I was inhaling in that room was making me sick. I would love to give this place more stars however I just can't do that as I will never return.

The location was perfect for visiting the Redwoods. The house was just as described in the listing. Unfortunately there was a bat inside the house when we arrived. We called the property manager and they indicated that they would try to get ahold of someone to come take care of it but it would be the next day because we arrived around 7pm. Of note all of the thermostats, pellet heaters and hot tub limit the temperature you are allowed to set. The hot tub was set at 100 and only one jet worked. The house has furnished blankets in the rooms but they stay on the cool side. The TVs are difficult to work and there are not any instructions. We were only able to get the TV in the upstairs bedroom on one channel. With all of that said we would stay at this property again.

Terrific house for a larger gathering of family and friends. Comfortable bedrooms and fun common spaces, including a huge pool/game room and an expansive deck. The small oceanside village of Trinidad is a real jewel, with a number of scenic beaches within walking or short driving distance. We especially enjoyed the beach immediately accessible by a short trail from the house. Some features of the house are a bit dated but this is far outweighed by the overall comfort, amenities, and location of this listing.

Beautiful beach and redwood stay

We enjoyed our stay immensely. Everything was wonderful, clean and spacious rooms. If we had to critique anything it would be to fix the potholes in the driveway, our cars did struggle getting back up the hill. We also suggest that the shower downstairs have a shower curtain over the window, when upstairs deck, you could see into the shower. Thank you for allowing us to stay in this home, it was a perfect fit for us, wish we could have stayed longer.

Most interesting house I've stayed at.

It's a large home with bedrooms, games, stairwells, and even a suite in a stand-alone building all over the place. The driveway is tight and rough. But it does lead to a small trail and a private beach. My big complaint would be the upstairs shower. Ick. The town is small and interesting. It is a great place to be to see the most of the multiple redwood parks.

Beautiful property

1950s-60s- or 70s--I"m not sure which decade, but it was Northern California vibes--mid century. Incredible yard, and just a five minute walk to a beautiful beach. Isolated but located in the center of town. A half hour drive to Redwood trails. A lovely respite. Well stocked with towels, shampoo/conditioner, and toilet paper. Much appreciated.

Lovely Property

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. This home was large and offered lots of space for our group to spread out. Comfortable rooms, well appointed kitchen, and the game room was huge hit! The outdoor space was spectacular and the deck and gardens were a serene place to have coffee in the morning and sip wine in the afternoon. The close proximity to the town and beach were an extra added bonus though I will say that hike back uphill from the beach is bit of a doozy! Still worth the hike to be able to enjoy the gorgeous and empty beach!

Three generations found plenty of space

Our three-generation family group found plenty of space in this well-located home. We enjoyed the proximity to town and the nearby beach and we also visited Redwoods National Park. Everyone enjoyed the hot tub and the game room and the s'mores kits were a fun touch. We especially enjoyed all of the outdoor deck space. Thanks for sharing this home. It can sometimes be difficult to find a home for a large family group so we were pleased to find this gem.

The house was wonderful! It was fully stocked with all appliances etc you might need. The driveway getting to the property is pretty rough, I’m glad we had big 4 wheel vehicles. You could get in with a regular car but may be difficult. We did go while it was raining a lot and the road was probably more difficult because of that. Overall, great place! We had a wonderful time!
