The place is wonderful. It is very secluded and romantic. We brought our own food and drinks which was nice, beucase there isn't anything around. The Redwoods are gorgeous.
We could not have envisioned a better stay for our weekend getaway.
This property is nice, cute, well maintained and close to the beautiful California Coast. We enjoyed the hot tub and the afternoon sun with ocean breezes. We were hoping to be able to prepare dinner during our stay, but it was not easy with no oven or BBQ. We were able to improvise, but with limited local dinning opportunities fixing our own meals was a challenge. Fortunately for us we found a dinning gem at Anchor Bay Thai. Awesome food and service. The only other challenge was the water pressure in our unit, it was poor to start, but when others were staying in the adjoining units it was worse. Overall, it was a nice unit, but it could be better.
The owners of this small studio space are caretakers of a beautiful piece of land. I happily did my morning yoga on the deck with the sounds of the creek below, the birds chirping through the tall redwoods and sea lions barking in the distance. My partner loved soaking in the hot tub which was even closer to the creek. We highly recommend you take advantage of the owners offer to walk around their property! This land is more than romantic it is full of forest magic and history. However, that didn't translate to the inside of the unit. The inside was cute and cozy but it ignored all practical needs so it couldn't be romantic. None of the furniture in the sleeping space had drawers and the tables were too tiny to place anything on top. The bathroom had only one tiny shelf to place stuff on top of. Definitely not enough room for a man's needs let alone a woman trying to be romantic. But the worst part of the inside was the amount of noise you heard from the neighboring unit. I think we were blessed to have night owls staying next door. When they walked at night it made the place shake and you could hear them talking. This woke us up frequently throughout the night, they never seemed to fall asleep until 4 AM. Not very romantic or conducive to a good night's sleep. Having said that we truly loved the land and could see ourselves staying on this property again but in one of the other two units. Look at the pictures and you can find the other two units.
great hot tub
Place was nice and clean, but Wifi was spotty. Took a while for the Lock combination to work, and it worked only the first time. We had to use the key all the other times. Overall, we had a very nice stay. (Never communicated with property manager, but no N/A option, so just put 3 stars…)
This was the ideal place to chose for our 5th wedding anniversary. The suite was small but has everything we needed and then some. I loved all the personal touches that created a home-like feel, the pictures on the walls, the candle on the table, the stress balls... I also appreciated the little extras like the coffee and French press, because I forgot ours at home. This location was ideal for relaxation and rejuvenation. We loved hiking up the hills behind the property and getting to enjoy the views of the ocean. The bed was so beautiful and comfortable. The hot tub was a splendid was to enjoy time together under the starry skies with the lighted and jetted options appreciated. I can’t think of one thing I would change. Thank you for helping to make this anniversary special and memorable.
It was clean, organized and very easy to access. Loved the hottub.
Sweet little apartment right off the highway nestled in the redwoods. Everything we needed, we quite enjoyed it.
My friend and I stayed here while we did some hiking and explored the Northern California coast. It was all we needed- clean comfortable and easy, and the hot tub was a special extra treat!
The property was as advertised, and the owner Kim met us as we drove in. She gave us a delightful and thorough review of everything. It took a long time for the room to heat up, but then it was quite toasty. The back of the property is a redwood grove where the hot tub is nestled by a creek. It has a long deck spanning the building overlooking the creek. Just gorgeous. Love the location just north of Anchor Bay. For some reason, though I tried and tried, we were never able to jump on the wifi. Also, more explicit instructions on how to use the TV would have been helpful. There are instructions about the remote but we were unable to access any of the channels or Netflix, only the music. All in all we loved it!
