Close to the highway and town for your convenience. Newly renovated, spacious, and clean--the house is a perfect option for a group of family getaway on the redwood coast. Radiant floor heating in the updated bathroom, a private driveway, yard, and garage access makes this the perfect place to call home for a few days. The kitchen is fully-stocked and there are multiple places to dine and unwind during your stay. Pet friendly, too :) The space This is a newly renovated 3 bedroom, 1.5 bath duplex that is located just minutes from hwy 101 in a peaceful, family-friendly neighborhood. Take a stroll on the Hammond trail to the Mad River Bluffs just 5 minutes away. Both of the units of the duplex function as vacation rentals, and both have separate driveways, garages, and fenced yards for maximum privacy. All of the rooms, except one, have fully-loaded TV's with most every streaming service you could ask for, comfortable bedding and linens. The primary suite consists of a king-size bed, and the two other bedrooms have both a full and queen-size bed to fit all of the guests in your party, as well as spacious closets to store your belongings during your stay. The bathroom is just off of the hallway that leads to the bedroom areas, and a half bath is located just off of the kitchen. A washer and dryer is located in the garage for guest use. Guest access You will have access to the entire unit, including the garage and designated yard. Other things to note Though this is a duplex, we have never had an issue with noise or any complaints regarding privacy at either listing. We do have security cameras setup around the driveway for added security. ## Property amenities ### Beach - Beach nearby ### Internet - Available in the house: Free WiFi ### Parking and transportation - Onsite parking options include a garage ### Kitchen - Coffee/tea maker - Cookware, dishware, and utensils - Dishwasher - Electric kettle - Kitchen island - Microwave - Oven - Paper towels - Refrigerator - Spices - Stovetop - Toaster ### Dining - Dining table ### Bedrooms - 3 bedrooms - Bedsheets provided ### Bathroom - 2 bathrooms - Bathtub or shower - Hair dryer - Shampoo - Soap - Toilet paper - Towels provided ### Living spaces - Dining table - Living room - Separate dining area ### Entertainment - Books - Smart TV ### Outdoor areas - Garden - Outdoor furniture - Patio ### Laundry - Laundry facilities - Washing machine ### Work spaces - Desk - Desk chair ### Comfort - Heating ### Pets - Pet friendly - Welcoming dogs only - One pet total ### Suitability/Accessibility - If you have requests for specific accessibility needs, please contact the property using the information on the reservation confirmation received after booking. - No elevator - Single level property - Stair-free path to entrance - Smoking not allowed ### Location highlights - Near a health/beauty spa - Near a hospital ### Things to do - Ecotours nearby - Hiking/biking trails nearby - Horseback riding nearby - Mountain biking nearby - Surfing/bodyboarding nearby ### Safety features - Carbon monoxide detector not reported (host has not indicated whether there is a carbon monoxide detector on the property;

Jun 23, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Relaxing getaway We took a short family vacation over to the coast to see some extended family and this was a terrific home to enjoy our time in. Located right on the Hammond Trail, the house has a nice yard for our small dog, comfy beds and a modern kitchen. A very nice, quiet neighborhood as well! Only issues we had were that we couldn't get the ice maker to work in the fridge, and struggled to get the TV to work (most likely, that's cause were technically challenged!). Highly recommended! ##### Mitchell C. Stayed 3 nights in Jun 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Bruce E. Oct 11, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Reunion in redwood country Excellent location, located on the Hammond Trail, very nice kitchen and appliances. Some kitchen equipment such as knives, salad bowl, salad spinner, electric hot water kettle, etc. are absent. Only 4 chairs around the dining room table, so if you have six people for dinner, two would have to stand. Overall very light on furniture. Excellent and highly responsive agent and owner. Great garage. ##### Bruce E.
