About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

The ocean meets the meadow at the forest's edge. Private beach. Soak under stars

A fully equipped, recently built (2003) beach home with two comfy bedrooms with yummy queen beds, a great room, a private deck outside the kitchen, and a cozy, romantic rooftop living room or a back yard jacuzzi with ocean views and starry, starry nights. Our beach house and decks are protected from the strong winds that buffet the bluffside. Take a walk down the nature path or the road past Pomo Lake to the private, gated beach for five miles of sandy coast, dramatic rocks, and lively tidepools to explore. Or just cross the road and enjoy the thick Mendocino forest. Our home is two fully independent duplexes. Sarah and I have the smaller one bedroom south side, but we are rarely in residence. If by chance we are there during your visit, we are especially quiet and considerate.

Great place to stay

This was a great place to stay. The house was clean and just as described. The roof patio was/is a great place to look at the sky and star gazing all night. I will save this place and book again. Thanks

Sisters' getaway

My sisters and I had the opportunity to spend some time away. We all love to cook. We did not understand from the listing that the kitchen did not have a regular stove and oven. There was equipment that functioned as such, but it wasn't equipment we were acquainted with and required us to adjust our recipes and figure out how it all worked. It was nice to have the cozy fireplace and views of the area.

Very much enjoyed our stay. Place is quaint and comfortable. It was a joy watching the family of quails graze right outside the backyard. Will definitely plan a return soon.

Great place, very convenient

I loved the house. The only comment I would make and it is not a negative, just to let people be aware. The only bathroom is up about 5 stairs next to the kitchen and if you using the bathroom during the night, be aware that you need to navigate walking into the next room and walking up some stairs. But, the place if great and is very welcoming!

Tranquil

This was the perfect weeklong getaway for me and my dogs. It's beautiful, quiet, and very peaceful. I like to leave town the week of the 4th in order to be able to sleep. We have too many people setting off fire crackers all week long. I came home feeling quite refreshed.
