Older place but excellent views with lots of wildlife viewing from the cottage windows. Bring binoculars. The hummingbirds love the flowers around the cottage. We would stay here again! Management was very responsive with communication and good instructions. Thanks!

The cottage was clean and well maintained. The views out the front window were amazing. You can see sea lions just a short walk or drive away. We watched a group of otters every morning swim around the rock formations at low tide. The stars at night were plentiful. There is plenty of good hiking in the area. The kitchen has everything you need.

Spectacular view, a little older And more wear and tear than the picture showed carpet could use replacing and cabinets don’t close. Bathroom is renovated nicely.

Outstanding location!
BRING BINOCULARS! This house is a nature lovers dream. If you forget binoculars, run out and buy some. Eagles, otters, seals, pelicans and more are right outside the living room window. There is also a lighthouse out in the sea, which you need to discover then google it’s origins. It will send you down a path that includes a shipwreck. Once you’ve done that, go into Crescent City and visit their museum (suggested donation- $5.00…worth it). You’ll get a lesson on the shipwreck and the lighthouse lens (a work of art, truly) is at the museum. You also must head further North to Trees of Mystery and walk their high bridges through the trees and ride the gondola. Do it, even if you are scared. You’ll be proud of yourself after. The house is large and comfy. Don’t let any negative reviews scare you away. It’s quiet and very private. We loved it!

Fantastic view. Needs some maintenance.
It is kind of a weird place so we were a little worried but when we walked in and saw the view we loved it. We spent most of our mornings and evenings watching the otters-so cute. It did not have onsite laundry even though there was a washer and drier in a locked room in the house. The laundromat was close and did the job, but.... The tub was not a jacuzzi but it was a very clean huge tub that I enjoyed. The dishwasher flooded the entire floor and they were unable to fix it. The staff were all very Friendly and helpful. All in all I would stay there again but I would hope for some maintenance repairs.

Loved watching the sea otters and other wildlife out the window. Worried a little about the neighborhood but ended up being the perfect little house for our family. Loved the views out of the living room. Very quiet neighborhood.

The cottage is cozy and comfortable! It’s definitely a little older but it was very clean and the views from the living room were spectacular!! The wood stove just made it even more perfect! The main office was so helpful and friendly. We are definitely booking this again! It was a perfect couples getaway, but would be great for a family as well! Just loved it!!❤️

Beautiful views
The views were magnificent! The rental was rustic as advertised. The place was comfortable but could have had a few more kitchen utensils, oven mit, ice trays, etc. It definitely could have been cleaner, but overall, it was great. We rode the bomb cyclone out and enjoyed every minute watching the waves, seals and birds.

Battling Waters
The location at the mouth of the Smith River plus large windows made for fascinating viewing. The river currents flowing downstream and the tidal currents pushing upstream meant interesting patterns in the water, plus attracting lots of wildlife. We liked the fireplace, with plenty of wood and kindling provided.

The view is beautiful. The furniture needs to be updated. The dishwasher is not secured In the cabinet. The coffee pot had grounds left in it. I pulled a bowl out for fruit salad but the bowl was dirty. I felt everything needed to be cleaned. The bed was clean and comfortable.

Working vacation
The hope was to relax by the ocean, the first night we bought cleaning supplies to clean the bathroom, the tub for sure, the T.V did not work and we tried all the obvious options. There was no communication help on any of the numbers to ask for support. We spent unsettling nights and mornings after having to evict multiple bats from the bedroom and living room during the entire stay.

What a view
I Hesitated booking this property over past reviews but I was so happy that I did! The view from the living room was amazing and it had a cabin feel to it. It also has a two person jacuzzi tub in the bathroom. The property is at the end of the road and is very quite. They supplied coffee and filters and other kitchen needs. The office manager Karen was friendly and was quick to offer assistance when the cable wasn’t working. I look forward to returning to this property

Quiet but needs updating
The location was quiet at the end of the road. But the neighboring houses needed renovation. The house is in need of updating but as clean as can be. We are not those that are looking for perfection so it worked well for us. We wanted a quiet relaxing time and this was it!

The view is 5 star! No beach 😕
Loved the view! A little nicer area out back would have been nice. As it is it was ok. At the very corner of the property so it was quiet. Plenty of space to stretch out. Appliances and such not top notch but you could see they’re working on it and price was very reasonable. If you just would like a nice view and are not worried about beach access this is a neat place.
