Le Faux Cottage

Our calendar is updated in real-time & our nightly rates are accurately displayed. Simply enter your desired dates and click 'Book Now!'

Find romance, relaxation, and stunning scenery at Le Faux, one-bedroom suite, with a dramatic oceanfront view, private deck and fire pit on the bluff overlooking the water. This is a wondrous location for exploring the Mendocino Coast.

This beautiful cottage is secluded on six acres of oceanfront property that it shares with the owners home. Take morning walks one-mile up the road to the Mendocino Coast Botanical Gardens, admire colorful shores of Glass Beach just beyond downtown Fort Bragg and peruse the many Art Galleries of Mendocino.

Whether you are celebrating a honeymoon, a birthday, or a quiet weekend of solitude, you'll find rich colors and beautiful European style in the redecorated living space. Start your morning in the kitchenette with a great cup of coffee then go out on the private deck and read your phone or newspaper while watching the passing whales, osprey, and harbor seals as seagulls fly lazily overhead.

Use the free WiFi to make plans for the day ahead, or simply drive aimlessly on the spectacular Mendocino Coast of highway one. Come home in the afternoon to unwind by taking a luxurious nap in the Louis XVI bed, or head outdoors to watch the sunset from your oceanfront lounge chairs. Then pour yourself a glass of wine before a blazing fire in the fire pit then spend the evening stargazing as the ocean waves crash below.

Come and experience the unmatched wonder of the Northern California Coast - leave your worries behind you at this gorgeous Fort Bragg retreat!

Great weekend getaway

The property is beautiful! Im sad it rained all weekend and l couldn't use the fire pit. The attention to detail was spot on! The owners take great pride in the quaint cottage. It really is impressive and I've been staying at rental houses for almost 20yrs on the northern coast. Id like to say we'll be back but we are moving east, this qas goodbye to our place in our hearts!

Great NYE

We had a great stay at Le Faux for New Year's Eve. The property was well-located with stunning ocean views that made it easy to relax and enjoy the scenery. The house had a comfortable, laid-back vibe with everything we needed, including a well-equipped kitchen and a cozy living room with a fireplace.On New Year's Eve, we took in the quiet, natural beauty of the area—watching the waves from the deck was a highlight. It is definitely a five star cabin but there were two small issues; We wish the shower water was hotter and even a single burner hotplate would've been nice to be able to cook small meals. We still gave five stars as maybe we like the water hotter than average and maybe we missed the fact that there wasn't a way to cook food other than a microwave. Overall, it was a solid choice for a peaceful and comfortable getaway to ring in the new year. Would definitely recommend it for anyone looking to get away and unwind.

Idyllic

LeFaux is a captivating cottage in an idyllic setting. Situated on a bluff overlooking the Pacific Ocean. Located about 10 to 15 minutes from Mendocino to the south & Fort Bragg to the north. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay LeFaux.

Absolutely wonderful!

The cottage is gorgeous and the view is amazing. Each night we enjoyed watching the sunset from both the fire pit lounge area and porch. We loved all the large cottage windows facing the ocean and the elegant decor. It was a romantic getaway we highly recommend. Perfect to enjoy some relaxing quiet time on the coast.

The week away!

The property was great, better than I expected. The motion dedicated outside lights were not timed properly, but other than that it was wonderful. Even the rain couldn't change to relaxing time it probably helped. Have recommended to friends and family.

Exquisite, peaceful retreat

This cottage is beautifully appointed, in a gorgeous, peaceful location. Definite YES for a private serene location. We’ll stocked with plush towels, nice toiletries, kitchen needs, even a bottle of wine and coffee. Highest recommendation from well travelled guests!

The Perfect Couples Getaway

We love to rent vacation getaways often. This cottage was all it was represented to be. It is on a private property with the main house nearby. The cottage was absolutely adorable, beautifully decorated and meticulous. The owners have thought of every little detail and anything we needed, was in the cottage. There was even a picnic bench overlooking the ocean, where we would have our morning coffee. So peaceful and beautiful. I highly recommend this cottage. You will not be disappointed.

A wonderful location, beautiful views, easy access charming and romantic. The WiFi was sporadic and undependable but that was the only negative. Will definitely go back again.

Relaxing Getaway

Spent a very relaxing couple days here. There is a main home across the driveway, so you may have cars coming & going past Le Faux, but it really didn’t bother us. The bed was heavenly - like sleeping on a fluffy cloud! Loved having the fridge, microwave, and other essentials even in a smaller space. Decor was beautiful!

NOT FALSE AT ALL

Decorations inside the cabin fitting for the name Le Faux, the kitchen, the bed, bathroom, and show clean and prepared for visitors. Dishes and all the supplies, thanks. The outside winds and cold refreshing, the chairs on deck a welcome for seeing (not fake) realistic the cliffs, birds, trees, and the ocean waves -- mesmerizing.
