This was a perfect spot - walking distance to literally everything in town. Great breakfast spot right across the street, around the corner from an amazing little wine tasting bar, good coffee shop up the road with gluten-free options. So quiet, so comfortable. And people in Trinidad are so friendly! I'll definitely be back.

Crabber’s was a base for our exploration of Redwood Nat’l and State Parks. Trinidad is a charming little hamlet. The cottage is steps away from a restaurant and a very good cafe (Beachcomber). Most of the town is perched on top of a serious hill, so the “walk to the beach” is strenuous. Super easy access to US101. Very good intel on local attractions, all of which are half an hour away, max.
