Private and spacious

We stayedhere for a our family reunion. There was ample accommodations and location afforded privacy and backroad access to favorite beach, river, and hiking adventures. Plenty of kitchen space, nice gas stove and all appliances, horse shores, fire pit, and barbecue to enhance our family meals. Beds comfortable though the king could use a memory foam topper, a bit hard. Would stay again.

Our stay in Crescent City was comfortable and relaxing, and not too far from the grocery store, restaurants and gas stations, so that made it very convenient to see many of the places around town that we wanted to visit. The house was clean inside, with a well stocked kitchen, lots of bath towels and paper products. The exterior was inviting, and we managed to enjoy a very nice evening by the fire pit. The back yard porch area needed some dusting/cleaning, and was a bit unkept with old trash items on the table, but not terribly bad, considering the house is located out in the woods. We arrived at night, so it was difficult to find the house in the darkness, since no lights were left on for us. As a suggestion, perhaps the front porch light could be left on in the future when other guests are expected. That would make things easier to find and get into the house. All in all, we enjoyed our stay and would definitely stay again. Thank you for your hospitality and positive experience.

The home is very beautiful in a very nice setting even though you’re in town it seems as though you’re out in the country, however, it doesn’t appear as though the housekeeper really does a good job at all, we had to go through and kill the spiders that were infesting with the rooms before we could utilize them. You would think that somebody would’ve made a walk-through before you had somebody book the property for a week long visit. The garage door openers were gone when we arrived. We tried to contact the property management and let them know that we couldn’t find them and we never heard back from them at all. It even looks as though the neighbors have rigged up a hose to the pump house and are stealing water from this property. The overall layout of the house is phenomenal. The master bedroom is great except for the mattress and box springs tub, and shower are fantastic and even though I understand, it’s in a wooded lot the exterior of the property is loaded with spiders and webs, and does not look like anybody has maintained it in quite a while. The back double door has issues in security as even when you try to shut the door continues to pop open so you have to use the deadbolt all the time and even then it’s flimsy. One of the things that we didn’t understand was that the prison was just located around the bend until we heard a loudspeakers going off and saw the guard towers the next day.

Spacious and Comfortable

We found this quiet house in the woods to be a good fit for our family. We saw wild turkeys in the yard one day. The grandkids enjoyed the backyard with a swing set. We all enjoyed the easy access to wondrous redwood forests, and beautiful river and ocean beaches.

Great place!

We had a wonderful stay! We enjoyed the large living room and kitchen. We spent a lot of time in the backyard around the fire pit and playing horseshoes. It was a great stay! I agree with a previous review that the carpet is due for a deep cleaning. I would definitely stay here again. This is the second time we have enjoyed this property.

Family vacation

The property and house are nicely situated and nicely laid out for a family stay. The kids loved playing outside and having s’mores in the fire pit the downside was the cleanliness of the house. It was apparent that some of the portions of the house had not been cleaned in quite a while, there were no extra trash bags and the exterior of the house was a spider haven.

Great Family House!

Our family of 7 stayed here and it was such a great space! The kids loved the yard and Treehouse. I'd say its a 4.5 star stay for us-- there were just a few minor hiccups: First, the top bunk wasn't made when we arrived (at night), so we had to make it ourselves before putting our kids to bed. Second, the microwave was really dirty, and I had to clean that out before use. We really could have used more access to both paper towels and dish cloths. And the tv setup is very complicated-- I think I counted 6 separate remotes, and only a couple had batteries, so we had to switch them between remotes. None of these things are deal breakers by any means, but they do deserve mention. Overall, it was a very enjoyable stay for our family! Plenty of space for us all, and we especially liked the oversized shower and tub in the master bathroom. It is in such a beautiful, peaceful and quiet location!

Redwoods reconnect

We've been visiting CC and staying in vacation rentals since the late 1970s. Probably rented 40 or more properties over the years. Cabin in Gasquet, trailer homes and houses along South Bank Rd, in town and along pebble beach, even by the beach along the Tolowa Dunes. This latest rental in Ft Dick was the cleanest, best equipped of all. It was like home away from home only right in the middle of a forrest. If you're looking for a more rustic feel, or a great view when you look out the window, there's no sweeping beaches, lighthouses, river rushing by, but it is very comfortable and a great place for a base of operations especially if you had kids or two parties who like being together but also some privacy. We never rented in the Ft Dick area before because of it's proximity to the prison, but that was really not an issue. Bottom line, if you have a larger group or a lotta kids, you won't find a place much better. 5 ⭐

We loved the layout of the house with the master suite at one end, the bunkbed room right off the kitchen and then the other two bedrooms at the other end of house; sharing a bath – esp. the two sinks.The swing set and fire pit were marvelous….we spent our evenings outsideThere was enough sitting for everyone at dinner time and then to watch for the Oregon football game.It was excellent.

We had a great family get away, with grandparents down to great-grandkids! The house was spacious enough for all of us, clean, greatly stocked. Tucked away off the main road, and plenty of space for kids to be loud & run around. We loved how close it was to Kellogg Beach, & it wasn't super crowded. Mark was great about answering questions before the trip. We will definitely come back to this house for beach trips!

Nice vacation home

We had a wonderful stay at this home. It is located close to Redwoods National Park, and the beach which was great for our large group. The home was clean and welcoming. The kitchen had everything you’d need to cook at home and a large living room for everyone to enjoy time together. We would definitely stay there if we were in the area in the future. The large covered patio was a delightful place to enjoy some coffee while enjoying the redwoods and birds. It truly was great. A couple of small things: We did not understand that the garage space was a literal garage with mattresses stacked along a wall that you could make up yourself to sleep on, but that was ok. Also, there was no shampoo, conditioner or paper towels, easily fixed by the near by Walmart. Again no big deal, but just wanted to save the next group an extra store trip.
