Great place, 3 minutes from Mendocino
We had a nice, quiet stay in the redwoods, only 3 minutes from Mendocino. A great place to unplug. We will be back soon!

Rest, relax and rewind
From the moment we arrived and were welcomed by Mary, we felt at home. Mary is an amazing hostess! The cottage is perfect! We loved looking up to the stars at night while falling asleep. Hopefully we can return soon.

Had a wonderful time at La Petit Mason. Mary is an exceptional hostess. Had far more goodies than any other hundreds of places I've stayed. Cozy, comfortable, relaxing. The property is beautiful. The cottage is located close to Mary's house but there are trees in between. Bed was comfortable. The property is quiet and close to Mendocino if you decide to leave. I can't wait to come back and stay as well as see Mary!

Wonderful Cottage in the Woods
From arrival to departure Mary was an absolute joy to be around making sure we were comfortable in our little home from home. The location is great with just a mile and a half from the ocean and town. Bring some light food to cook and enjoy in this home escape. Avoid the crowds and relax.

Home away from home
We stayed at Mary’s for our honeymoon and it was lovely! Everything we could need was available and she even made sure we had some treats and some grocery items to get us started. We received a wonderful welcome that included a tour of the cottage with instructions for the fire & heat as well as history of the cottage and a nice get to know you chat with Mary. We enjoyed it thoroughly. The bed was so comfy and the skylight above let us see the stars and wake up to the sun (though eye masks were provided). The redwoods surrounding the cottage made it feel like a fairy tale! We will definitely be back and cannot wait to enjoy it all again. Thank you Mary for sharing this amazing cottage and making us feel at home for our stay.

Idyllic Experience
A magical place awaits - intended to invoke the charm of France where beauty sublimely intersects with passions, this lovely cottage and Mary's exemplary attention to details captivated us as it will you. Mendocino is easy to visit and hard to leave -- from walking the myriad Ocean Bluffs, Mendocino Gardens, the Music Festival, Good Life for breakfast - the village vibe - all comes into harmony and invites the inevitable future trips back - dress warmly - enjoy the cool air. Thank you Mary!

Dreamy Mendo Getaway
A short ride from Mendocino town and headlands, situated in a redwood forest, this lovely cottage is just as advertised and everything my husband and I hoped for. Mary is a thoughtful and generous host. We appreciated her attention to detail -- from driving instructions (don't rely on google maps) to the wine and food basics awaiting us. The bed and bedding are super comfy! Cuddled in the warm quilt, with morning light pouring in from the skylights and terrace door, it was hard to start the day - even with the wondrous offerings of Mendo arrayed outside. We'll definitely be back!
