Spectacular in both setting and design, this contemporary craftsman-style home perfectly captures the beautiful light, ocean views, and relaxed comfort of Mendocino and the wild Northern California Coast. Here on the bluffs overlooking Russian Gulch and the Mendocino Headlands, you'll find white-water ocean views in nearly every room, a great room with 18-foot ceilings and lovely exposed beams, and glass doors that open onto the ocean-facing redwood decks. Come home from your daily walks on the nearby beaches to savor the warmth and luxury of in-floor radiant heat, Waterford wood stoves, a hot tub, and a Scandinavian-style sauna.

On the property of this south-facing home, you'll find gorgeous sunrise views, a garden overlooking the ocean that can be used for meditation or contemplation. Russian Gulch State Park is immediately south, and the Point Cabrillo Light Station State Historic Park is less than a mile north on Highway 1. The heart of Mendocino, a blufftop village known for its charming art galleries and wonderful restaurants, is just over two miles south, and downtown Fort Bragg awaits nine miles north.

Beautiful home, beautiful setting

Our family of 6 very much enjoyed this beautiful home that was spacious and clean. Parking for our four cars very close to the house. The location was perfect for us, offering views of the ocean, sunsets and starry nights, and nearby walks and hikes. We did a 7 mile hike to the falls at Russian Gulch State Park and from the house, we walked to Cabrillo Lighthouse (3 miles round-trip). The art work in the home was lovely and apparently for sale in collaboration with a local gallery. We didn't use the hot tub but the sauna was nice. We couldn't get it to get very steamy, though. I would warn older folks or the disabled that the deep tub/shower in the master bath was very difficult to get in and out of. Not well-designed at all! Overall, we had a wonderful family vacation at this home.

Always Wonderful

This was our second stay at this beautiful home. It’s the perfect house for a family get together. Plenty of room for everyone. The view is amazing, so great to wake up too. It’s very private ,which we love. The location couldn’t be better, close to town, close to hiking trails and close to Fort Bragg. This trip we rode on the Skunk Train , and loved the Botanical Gardens. We will be back again for sure.

Outstanding venue for Mendocino getaway

This is a lovely venue and a spacious retreat on the Northern California coast. Very clean and well appointed, and on top of that there are plenty of additional features, including a sauna, a lovely hot tub, and an excellent view, to boot! Large and roomy, should you bring your family, and very accommodating if you bring your dog companion. Definitely worth a repeat visit.

Fantastic Getaway

This home was wonderful for our family getaway. The house was beautiful and the view was amazing. Everything was clean and the beds were very comfortable! There were a few minor things that could be improved but overall it was great.

Lovely property but ....

The property was lovely and comfortable with expansive views and great living areas. However for what we paid, there were some glaring misses: - (as others have remarked) the towels, supplies for the rental were threadbare - on arrival the kitchen was not entirely clean - while there are lots of pots and pans in the kitchen most of the pans,l non-stick and baking equipment was grimly and in such a sad state that we didn't feel comfortable using it. Bring your own.

Beautiful house and location.

We spent our 11th anniversary at this home. It was spotless and had everything and more we wanted. It's a huge house up kept well with modern updates. All amenities functioned normally. Area is very quiet and has good ocean views. We'll definitely be back.

Beautiful home, fantastic hosts

This was our first time ever using Vacasa and we were extremely impressed! The guest services and ease of getting help from the management/hosts if necessary was awesome! We really enjoyed our stay. So much so that our toddler kept wanting to "go back to our vacation house" when we were out exploring. Thank you for the great service and beautiful home!

Mendocino piece of heaven

Spending my birthday at this property was so perfect. It has everything and is so spacious and beautiful. Coming in the winter did make the house cold when entering but after a log in the fireplace and the heat set the home is so cozy over looking the ocean. Our springer spaniel was in heaven with over an acre to play and explorer. Especially loved the sauna in the master and hot tub on the deck under the stars. Honestly im very particular and this home checked all our boxes. I will come back again. Thank you Vacasa for making this beautiful home available. So you also manage the attached apartment cottage? That could be a nice options for larger groups if available.❤️❤️best birthday ever!

Great centrally located home with views!

We had a full house and this place still felt huge! The kids had a great time in the central room, so much room to play! The house was clean, easy to function in and overall great! Only challenge was early/late checkout offerings. We were notified 30 minutes after our original check-in time that early check-in was available. That just didn't make sense. Overall we loved everythig from the spa and sauana to the views and easy location to Mendo and Fort Bragg. What a gem!

Great stay

We loved our stay - the location was perfect, close to the town but far enough for a peaceful stay with gorgeous views. The house layout is perfect for a family or group trip - we will be back for sure! A small minor con is that the radiant heating made the first night uncomfortably hot even with windows open but we were able to adjust it for the next day to have a much more pleasant stay! Thanks again and see you again soon!

Mendocino Stay

This is a great house with plenty of room for the six of us. The kitchen was well equipped and had a Subzero refrigerator and a Wolf stove. The only negative was the master bathroom bath tub. You had to climb over a wall to get into the tub. Luckily there are two grab rails to keep you from falling into the tub. It would be nice if they warned people about it, especially if they are not that physically able. My wife and I are in our late 70's but we are in good shape, so while it took some effort to get in we were ok.

Amazing Getaway

The location and beauty of this house was incredible. We had 3 couples and loved our stay. I would rate the amenities (kitchen, towels, little extras at 3.5 stars for such a nice property) but that did not matter as much to us.

Beautiful Home Minutes from Mendocino

The home looks just like the pictures (in fact, seemed bigger in person), and was a perfect spot for a long weekend with our family. Plenty of room to set up a pack n play for infants (although the propriety does not include one) and our toddler loved running around the big lawn. Would definitely stay again!

Wonderful stay at Mendocino Sunrise

We approached the house and we felt so lucky to be staying in such a grand home! Loved the neighborhood and all the wildlife! My kids and grandkids had a great time playing on the expansive lawn out front. The beds, furniture, woodwork, decor, views contributed to a magical stay! Hot tub is great!

Not what we were hoping

Picked this property specifically for the hot tub. Hot tub was cold and only partially filled when we arrived 1 1/2 hour after 4pm check in. We were not able to use the hot tub until the afternoon of the following day. Only one log was provided to use in the fireplace for our three night stay. These two issues overshadowed an otherwise good property.

Nice place but be aware.

The first thing I'd advise new renters is to buy some presto logs or where you live cause you only get one log, no matter how many nights you stay. The kitchen is lacking so much that cooking at home is a challenge. Also the "Stunning Home on the Bluffs w/ Ocean Views, Redwood Decks, Hot Tub & Sauna" (their description) sounded to me like it's near the ocean or at least close enough to hear it. It's not. Perhaps a 1/2 mile away and the ocean you can see (when it's not fogged in) is on the horizon and in the far distance you can see some white water. Also, most rentals have a book with all the info about the house and area restaurants etc. Not this one. Did you notice the fireplace in the master bedroom? There's a sign on top that said it's not for renter use. Also for the high price we paid, there is no TV in the master and the furniture is mostly on it's last leg. The hot tub, please notice that there is a 60 charge for it. I'd understand if they had to drain it and refill after each use but with the water shortage and the condition of this water it was not. It's just a way to gauge you a little more. Enjoy.
