Great Place to Stay with Family or Good Friends.

The home was clean and well stocked. It was as I thought it would be from the pictures on VRBO. I was surprised to find it on the east side of Hwy 1 but it had a great view of the ocean and easy access to the beach. My wife and I hosted our kids and grand kids and we were all comfortable. Wonderful home. I would like to come back again.

Beautiful views and lovely home

My husband and I spent a three day weekend in this lovely home. First of all, the home is spacious and filled with art, books, movies, and games. Everything you would need could be found. The house was very clean. Diane's instructions for check in and check out were very clear.Each morning we sat on the deck, enjoying the stunning views and listening to birdsong. There is also beach access to Irish Beach with opportunities for walks, kite flying or even creating a driftwood structure.

Beautiful views

The views were incredible and the beds were comfy. We enjoyed cooking in and playing board games and relaxing in the hot tub. The ants were no joke, though, and while we did our best to keep them at bay they were pretty persistent. We'd stay again because the location was so fantastic and it is great for families.

Beautiful home, Amazing Views and location

We loved our stay here. The check in / check out process was easy. The home was clean, comfortable, and spacious for our group of 5 friends. The kitchen was well equipped for group meals. The walk to the beach that you can see from the deck was so lovely and easy to do. The views from the hot tub are so peaceful. I would absolutely love to stay here again!

This is a wonderful property, perfect for a family vacation. Large common area to relax in, great hot tub, wonderful beach access, and close to the Redwoods. Wish I was able to stay another week and enjoy watching the waves, seals, and sunsets on Irish Beach!

Beautiful view and beautiful home

My family stayed here for a wedding in the town just north of it in Elk. The home is beautiful (if a little dated) and met all our needs. There is a great view and owner is very helpful and provided instructions for everything. They even had a game closet that came in handy when the cousins got bored.

Great time

This was the 2nd time my family and I have rented and enjoyed our stay at this lovely house. It’s not the fanciest of houses in the area and some parts of it are a little dated, but honestly that’s how we prefer it. If it was updated and remodeled we probably wouldn’t be able to afford to rent it and enjoy our time together. Perfect for several adults/couples. Hoping to rent again in the future!

About the host

Hosted by Diane Heinzer

Host profile image
Jon & Diane built their home in 1971 when their boys were 10 and 13. With 2 bedrooms, one bath and a loft, they entertained their friends and friends of kids through college. But when grand kids came along, they expanded it to accommodate three couples , 2 .5 bathrooms and 5 twins in the loft. They have lived at Irish Beach longer than in any other home. They love sharing it with others, some of whom have been renting since they were children, and now have children of their own.

Why they chose this property

They bought the lot in the fog, but knew the 6 miles of beach was fabulous, and the gated entry to the beach road would keep it pristine as it has. Amazed to see the lighthouse when they returned a month later, the beauty of the setting captured them and still holds them here.

What makes this property unique

Each day is unique, living close to nature and with all the wildlife, changing sea and sky and beach, always different and the stars at night putting everything in perspective. The fabulous restaurants and wineries and artists and shops and scenic Hwy 1 help too.
