Beautiful cottage with heavenly view! Worth every penny. View from master is best I've ever seen. Deck is tiny walk around house, but spent lots of time there. Keep in mind there is no cell coverage and have access code screenshot.

This property and it's views are exactly what was expected... and we had high hopes! All communications with our hosts were incredibly responsive and rapid without blowing up are inbox allowing us to indeed "escape" as we wished.Although the property unfortunately has a public beach access walkway directly along and within and very close proximity to our balcony, seeing we went during the non-tourist season, the beach path was quiet from the public traffic. The nearby towns are all quite wonderful with art and culture. We definitely would escape into this area again.

The views of the ocean alone, are worth the stay. The home was cozy, charming, with all the privacy you could ask for. Well maintained and well equipped with cookware, essential toiletries, and outdoor grill. Had a very pleasant stay from Friday-Sunday. With it only being 25 minutes to the hikes and sight-seeing we did in Mendocino, the drive was scenic and felt much shorter. Would love to visit again soon.

Spring break mini vacation

The views from the house were incredible! Loved the walk to the beach with my son and dogs. The market was lovely, and The Elk Restaurant and the Greenwood were wonderful. Would've love to stay longer.

Heaven by the beach

We have stayed here several time with our dog. We got engaged on the beach below so it holds a special place in our heart! The views are breathtaking and the sound of the waves relaxing throughout our stay! Can not wait to come back!

This quaint cottage sits high above the Pacific Ocean with a spectacular view of rocky cliffs and a secluded beach. The cottage was small but comfortable.

Don’t stay here if you don’t have four wheel drive we could not get our car out of the gravel drive way for one hour and Vacasa was no help. The house is adequate the view is breathtaking. The little town is great. But I would never stay in a Vacasa managed property again.

Amazing view and location! Cozy house, a wonderful place overall. The only negative was the loose gravel driveway at such a steep incline. Our car got stuck trying to pull out one evening. It should definitely be paved.

We had a wonderful time at this VRBO! Beautiful vistas, quiet with only the sounds of the ocean and some birds. Enjoyed exploring the area Redwoods and small towns. The drives from Bodega Bay to Ft. Bragg on the PCH were breathtaking. The view from the bedroom picture windows are incredible and the gas fireplace complemented the whole house vibe! Some suggestions are to have better lighting for the driveway since it’s on a cliff, replace the kitchen rug as it is a tripping hazard and provide a baking pan or cookie sheet. We would definitely stay here again!

Beautiful view!

This property was very lovely. The view is absolutely amazing from the bedroom. There isn’t easy beach access directly from the house but it’s not hard to find the way down to the beach. It was quite and very comfortable.

Killer view

Although the driveway was steep, overall property was comfortable. Needs lots of tlc outside and clearing for dogs. Did not know how to check out until we could get reception. We actually left at 9:30 am!
