About this property

Oceanfront Getaway: Beach Access & Dog-Friendly

Summary:

Driftwood Cottage



The Space:

Enjoy your own cliffside oasis in this Fort Bragg vacation rental with unobstructed ocean views and private gated beach access. This cozy manufactured home offers complete kitchen amenities, a large patio, hot tub, and a million-dollar view for your next hideaway from deadlines, school work, and the daily grind.



The location is phenomenal! It's a mere 14 minutes from fine seafood dining, antique shopping, and The Skunk, a historic passenger train that runs 40 miles along the coast and through redwood forests. A five-minute trip will take you to MacKerricher State Park where you can ride horses, watch for seals and whales, and explore tide pools.



The single-story home is calming with an open floor plan, blue accents, and bright abstract paintings. Large windows create great natural lighting and the ocean can be viewed from almost every room in the home! You'll take refuge in the living room which has two upholstered chairs and a love seat. Cozy up with friends and family to watch a movie on the living room TV or pop in a DVD from the collection. A second living space just off the TV room offers floor-to-ceiling windows, a futon, lounge chair, and a gas fireplace. This is the perfect spot to curl up by the fire on a chilly night and gaze into the beauty of the sea.



Just off the living room is a dining table for four and kitchen with great storage, a coffee maker, refrigerator, microwave, stove, oven and toaster. The 1,200-square-foot home comfortably sleeps six guests and has two full baths. Two bedrooms offer queen beds and windows overlooking the rolling coastal landscape, and a futon allows for flexible sleeping arrangements. A private washer/dryer ensure that you always have clean clothes.



The patio offers a gas grill and is arranged with bright blue Adirondack furniture for both children and adults. The beach is just a stone's throw away! The semi-circle coastline represents Northern California's finest, with giant boulders jutting out into the ocean, a bright green coastline, and waves as far as the eye can see. When the mood is right, slip into the private hot tub and watch the sun set on the blue/gray horizon. Don't forget to pack your gadgets! This lovely rental even offers internet access.



Visit the Sea Glass Museum in Fort Bragg to learn about science and natural artistry, listen to the thunderous crash of waves into the cliffside at Pomo Bluffs Park, or get a double scoop cone at Cowlicks Hand Made Ice Cream.



No matter how you choose to spend your northern California adventure, this Fort Bragg vacation rental has all the modern amenities, and a breathtaking view to make this an unforgettable trip for you and your family!

Liked: Check-in, location
Disliked: Cleanliness
The house itself is rundown, dated, and poorly maintained. The beds are uncomfortable, the linens smelled like they were left damp in the washer for a couple days. Little things can turn an average place into a special one. That works the other way, too. Your rental is in wine country. At least have a complete set of wine glasses on hand. Not a bunch of mismatched, garage sale finds.

Beautiful location

We enjoyed our stay at this cozy home. The views were spectacular and it was about a 15 minute drive to town. The thermostat to the fireplace was not functioning and the beds and pillows were pretty uncomfortable, and likely just need to be replaced.
