OCEAN VIEWS - Gourmet Kitchen - BEACH ACCESS - Short Walk - Sleeps 4

Gaze over the crystal blue ocean of the Mendocino coastline accented by sparkling "diamonds on the water," right from the porch of our fully remodeled, historic, two-story, Victorian-style home.

With all modern amenities, this historic home was one of the original homes during the booming logging era in Mendocino County. Located in quaint Little River, CA., this 2 bedroom, 2 bath home mixes Victorian nostalgia with all-modern amenities. Maximum capacity is 4 persons. Not suitable for children under 12 years or infants. No events or gatherings that would exceed the 4 person maximum, please, and no pets. For your security and the security of our home, we have 2 exterior security cams at both entry points covering property.

We are surrounded by Van Damme State Park on 3 sides. We have total access to beach trails including a short path that leads to a secluded cove on Van Damme Bay, the Spring Ranch trail so you can take a quick walk to see the white-water of the surf crashing against the rocks, and other amazing hiking trails. You might even spot a pod of whales. If you have ever wished for an enchanted getaway, this is it.

Shop and dine in charming Mendocino, Albion, Fort Bragg, or right here in Little River. Golf, explore and enjoy. You have found a hidden gem.

We look forward to welcoming you and your loved ones to our home. You can accept the rental contract online, however, we require your signature on all of our rental packet documents that will be sent via email from our property management firm.

This property requires guests to use stairs to the the bedrooms upstairs. Thank you.

Comfort With A View
This property is a gem! It was so clean and comfortable. When we were not out and about, we were sitting looking out on the beautiful view. It is very near Mendocino where you will find great restaurants and shops. It is also close to so many State Parks and overlooks to explore. I highly recommend it.

This place is great. Its quiet, directly across the street from a path down to the ocean. The cove is a hidden gem. The house is clean and VERY well labeled. Everything worked and was in good condition. A 5 minute drive gets you to the village in Mendocino, 15 mins to get to Ft. Bragg. A great location, wonderful view, and very relaxing.

Amazing house and location
The pictures don't quite do it justice. The house is that nice. And that little walk down of the Beach that they say is 5 minutes might be too short for how beautiful it is. Owner/manager was very good with communication. This place is awesome

Superb in Every Way
Everything about our stay was wonderful. We would love to come back. The house is kept in a charming but unpretentious way. There is a short trail right next door to a private cove that proved to be a beautiful place to relax for a couple of hours. Bonnie is an ideal host — friendly and communicative. Little River is quite close to Mendocino but far enough away to feel remote. We just had a blast. Thank you!

The perfect get-away spot
A friend and I stayed for a weekend, and found the house to be not only beautiful, but warm and inviting. Do pay heed to the "before you go" note, and bring slippers. The wood floors (and stairs!) can be slick in just socks. The trailhead to the beach is easy to find, and fairly accessible. Communicating with Bonnie was super easy, and she responded quickly every time. If you need a nice spot to get away for a while, this is it!
