Nice cabin in an excellent location near the redwoods and Trinidad.
Cabin was very clean and had a nice view of the ocean. The bed was quite comfortable and the cabin is quiet. Staff is helpful and engaged. Excellent location for exploring the redwoods.
Living room could be decorated to make it feel more cozy. Utensil selection is sparse and we doubt most guests actually cook in the cabin.
It was a nice spot, and we would book again and bring our own pillows. The private hot tub was cool. We had a broken gla
Property was cute and as pictured. You could see the ocean from the lawn
Our biggest complaint was that we did not sleep well, the bed and pillows were very uncomfortable.
We wished we could have stayed longer!
Our favorite accommodation on our road trip from Bodega Bay to Lincoln City, the cottage was clean with modern updates, and comfortable to hang out in. In a peaceful part of Trinidad...and not far from the amazing Larrupin' Cafe. Highly recommend.
Pleasant stay in well kept cabin. I would recommend to anyone headed to see the redwoods.
Cute little cabin. Very clean. Easy breakfast delivered to door the night before. Close enough to town to get meals.
Highly recommend. Would stay there again!
Very warm and accommodating lodging. Felt like home. My wife made a wonderful meal and even though it was cloudy and cool we felt very cozy.
Can't really come up with anything!
Very cozy
Nice location Quiet
