Pet-friendly Oceanfront Retreat w/King Beds & Hot Tub!

10/10 Excellent
"Enjoyed our second four day visit to this house. Like great views, clean, well stocked kitchen & nicely furnished. Two trees are blocking a lot of the beautiful ocean view & need trimming plus the yard in entry needs care as detracts from otherwise positive feelings. Good place overall."

Epic Mendocino Ocean Views, 5BR, Tesla Charger

10/10 Excellent
"We have completely enjoyed staying at this property. The thoughtfulness of the place is admirable. Tesla charger , washer and dryer, backyard view to ocean, gazebo with sofas, large family dining table, games and proximity to ocean with excellent beach are highlights. We went with kids and friends and all had good time. This is a very spacious place with multiple rooms and we got good fun. We look forward to going back and enjoying! I took my guitar and surprised to find the receiver with inputs so that I can connect the sound cable and listen to my music from surround system! The beds , the furniture, outdoor and. Indoor fire pit, and interiors are done with care by owners I think with thought that we should feel at home and comfortable. Kids played board games at the place, had a nice time with family. The location itself is so good , views and photos came out so good. At walking distance we saw good nice nature and stunning."

10/10 Excellent
"A little smaller than my impression from the pix. Every appliance but a dishwasher & toaster-oven. Google Maps place it east of Hwy 1, but it's actually west, with a great location right on the ocean bluff. No beach access within walking distance, but a half-mile bluff trail. One block walk to a couple of nice restaurants. Lucky you!"

10/10 Excellent
"We had such a wonderful stay here! The property was absolutely beautiful, with gorgeous landscaping and so much to explore. We stayed in the Antique Cabin, which was so cute, comfortable and very clean. We saw tons of hummingbirds while walking around the property, which was such a fun little bonus. The hosts were incredibly kind and welcoming. They greeted us when we arrived and made us a wonderful breakfast of biscuits and gravy. I would HIGHLY recommend it, the biscuits were definitely top tier! The area itself was also so peaceful and beautiful. It’s quiet, and every once in a while you can hear sea lions in the distance, which really adds to the whole coastal experience. Overall, we had such a great stay and would absolutely come back again!"

"This is exactly what a roadside motel should be: clean, friendly, comfortable, affordable, and easy to find. While our room was on the small side, the views just steps away from your door are spectacular."

"Very good location close to the beach and river. We were able to walk along the beach and kayak in the river, all a short drive from the property. The home had amazing views of the ocean and river as well, and was comfortable and cozy."

10/10 Excellent
"My dog and I stayed for two nights in August 2026. It was an amazing trip, and the house and property are beautiful! We arrived at night and had no problem finding the property, checking in, etc. Check out was just as easy. The house had everything I needed from utensils to a coffee maker and even had a dog bed (my dog is 120lbs and fit perfect). The view is beautiful and the property is close to the town of Gualala along with a couple pet friendly beaches. Overall great experience. I highly recommend and will be coming back in the future."
