Very cute place with all the comforts needed to relax and recharge on our travels. There were several thoughtful items to make the stay entertaining and memorable. My favorite was the large wall map that had been personalized by prior guests who had pinned places of interest things to do, etc. A close second are the dog treats and comfy bed for our pup who enjoyed sitting on the front porch while we drank coffee. Great location for those who like to explore.

A cute, comfortable cottage and very peaceful place to come "home" to after a day of exploring. Sit on the front porch and enjoy the peaceful countryside setting or take a stroll. Close to several swimming holes and access to Howland Hill Rd. for redwood hikes. Loved the map on the wall and amusing assortment of books, including a short history of Gasquet.Notes to be aware of:-There is some road noise from 199.-As is clear from the reviews, many people bring their dogs to this property. If you have allergies/asthma, you might need to take your medication like some of my family did, so bring it just in case. The property was clean, but of course not all pet dander can be eliminated.
