The stay was amazing. The cottage was a perfect size for me, my wife, and our son. The area was peaceful and quiet. The view of the ocean and sea lions could not have been better. There was plenty of room for our son to run around. The location is perfect for doing activities in the area. The kitchen had everything we needed for a week's stay. I definitely recommend. We might be returning in the future.

Lovely well appointed kitchen. The outdoor grill was very nice. After the rain cleared we enjoyed the bluff side seating and outdoor dining space. Our favorite thing was sitting at the bluff, watching the sunset and the sea lions on the rocks and in the surf.

Amazing! We're so glad you were able to enjoy the bluffside seating once the rain cleared.

The property was very nice. I really liked the beach access and hearing the ocean sound from the patio. I liked it had great amentities to cooking as well as storing food (a fridge) it had as well. Overall, the beach house was phenomenal and I would reccommend it to people.

Comfy tiny home/cabin with peek-a-boo views of the ocean with ability to walk about 100-150 yds to a gorgeous cliff-side overlook of the ocean. We had an excellent sunset during our stay in early June. The property is north of Trinidad, which got us well within striking distance of Redwoods National and State Parks.There was plenty of room for two adults and one kid. Our six year-old slept on the couch without issue. Well appointed kitchen. Everything was in good working order and clean. My only complaint was that the down mattress topper was a little soft for me; my wife loved it.We felt at home and relatively secluded, which is what we were looking for.
