Location was great - enjoyed the walk ability of Trinidad. Headies pizza was awesome. The Lighthouse fish and chips was amazing. Highly recommend Fern Canyon and the Tall Trees Trail for hikes. For beaches… for sure do the sunset in Trinidad and we also enjoyed College Cove beach.

The house is funky and fun in the best possible way! The pellet stove did a great job at keeping us warm and dry during record rainfall. The views on the forest were nice and the ocean view was just a stroll away. Having Murphys Market and the Eatery a short walk away was very convenient - Trinidad has a lot to offer - and being able to walk was really nice.

The location was excellent, right in town, easy to walk places. The rooms were nice, clean, bed linens were warm and comfortable. The house is a bit rustic, and a little cold in the foyer. But the game room was fun. How tub was great, and the outdoor shower got hot right away. Overall, we had a great stay. The driveway was a bit sketchy though in a sedan or a lower riding vehicle. Better for an suv or truck. I would stay there again.

Hello….we had a great time and love the house. A couple of things we wanted to make you aware of…the toilet seat in the downstairs bathroom is broken and the heater in the outside cottage will not shut off. Other than that another good stay at your house.

Another Great Family Stay

This was the second time renting this place for a family get together. We enjoy the close to town but secluded location. We love the beach access and tranquil creek sounds. It makes for a great location for our large family. One of our favorite places to stay on the north coast.

Terrific house for a larger gathering of family and friends. Comfortable bedrooms and fun common spaces, including a huge pool/game room and an expansive deck. The small oceanside village of Trinidad is a real jewel, with a number of scenic beaches within walking or short driving distance. We especially enjoyed the beach immediately accessible by a short trail from the house. Some features of the house are a bit dated but this is far outweighed by the overall comfort, amenities, and location of this listing.
