About this property

The Fish House - Midcentury Modern - Walk to Beach

Comfortable home with 1956 charm, but remodeled with all new windows, tile floors and carpet. The kitchen is basic yet functional and still has its original pink and brown tile. Two bedrooms have queen sized beds and the den has a double sized foldout sofa. The third bedroom has a twin sized bed. There are two bathrooms, one with the original yellow tile from 1956 which has been refreshed, and the other has been totally remodeled with a tiled walk-in shower. Set on over four acres, this home has a large yard with deer and birds to view. There is a blue water ocean view from the deck, and the beach is a quick 10 minute walk away. MacKerricher State Park sits between this home and the ocean. This is a great place for families with kids or for couples to share.

We loved this property! It’s conveniently located close to town, the beach, and the Skunk Train. The house was very cozy, we loved all the books, decor and hearing the ocean from the deck. Everything was very clearly labeled, which was handy and made everything straight forward and easy. The best part for us is that it was dog friendly! We all had a great trip and are talking about coming back already.

Girls trip

This was a wonderful house to make our mother daughter road trip so memorable. Wonderful location with views of land that will never be developed and of the ocean that you can hear and see in the distance. House was just as described. Clean and comfortable. The outside yard is perfect for dogs to run around and explore. We are already talking of coming back! Thank you for a wonderful time!

Rail bikes, glass beach, and lovely Fort Bragg

We had a wonderful stay at The Fish House, watching sunset from the back patio and waking up to deer in the yard. It’s a charming and welcoming place to stay while enjoying Fort Bragg. We also appreciated our easy check-in and checkout.

Our new favorite place

We wish we booked more than 7 nights at the Fish House. In fact, we’d love to buy the place and move in. It is just perfect for a relaxing, comfortable stay where you can enjoy the sight and sounds of the ocean, watch the sun set into the sea, and walk to the beach. This house has everything you’ll need, including plenty of soap, shampoo, conditioner and body wash. The frog serenade at night was so relaxing. Thanks for sharing your beautiful home with us. We will be back!

About the host

Hosted by Marilyn Anderson

Host profile image
My husband and I recently retired to Fort Bragg, my husband's home town. He grew up in this house, and after his mother passed away, we decided to keep it in the family and use it as an extra home for when family visits and also as a vacation rental.

Why they chose this property

This home has been owned by my husband's family since 1959, and we are pretty attached to it and want to honor its history. It is a very comfortable home which holds many wonderful memories.

What makes this property unique

This home has lots of charm with its redwood ceilings, beams and lots of paneling. The setting is quiet and woodsy, but it is still easy to run into Fort Bragg to shop and eat.
