Moonstone Beach Retreat, perched above beautiful Moonstone Beach is perfect for 2 couples, close friends or a small family looking for a relaxing beach getaway. Endless seascapes & mesmerizing sunset views just a few minutes walk down to the beach! The friendly owner has private quarters below with a separate entrance downstairs. She keeps to herself when visiting and respects guests' privacy. The endless views of Clam Beach and Little River combined with the proximity to Moonstone Beach make this home a great spot for exploring the North Coast. Moonstone Beach is a local family favorite beach that is best known for great surfing, kayaking and fun exploring with rocks to climb, tide pools, sea caves and pristine sand. Running and fitness enthusiasts will love taking the downhill stroll to Moonstone beach, crossing Little River and walking or running for miles on Clam Beach. On a low tide walking north on the beach will lead all the way to Camel Rock, a popular surf spot. After a day of exploring the Redwoods and beaches guests will love sitting on the South facing deck soaking up sunset views.
The open floor plan is spacious and bathed in natural light from the unadorned windows. This beach house is decorated with a mix of modern and vintage decor that creates a comfy vibe with a large contemporary sectional sofa plus 3 old fashioned rocking chairs perfect for lounging and enjoying movies on the large Smart TV. The open living room feels like a solarium with expansive windows without coverings that allow the outdoor views inside.

The bathroom has a combination tub/shower. The full sized washer and dryer are conveniently located in the hall closet. Convenient parking in the driveway allows for two to three cars.
Moonstone Beach Retreat is located off of Scenic Drive running just below Hwy. 101 so this home is easy to access but may have some road noise along with the sounds of the sea. Drive less than three miles away from the seaside village of Trinidad which offers a full service grocery, restaurants, a wine tasting room, cafe, art gallery, museum, pier and pristine beaches. Explore nearby Trinidad Head's 45 minute loop trail with spectacular panoramic ocean views. Patrick's Point State Park just 5 miles North of Trinidad offers a plethora of outdoor activities such as hunting for agates, exploring tide pools, and hiking the majestic Elk Head Trail. Take a scenic 40 minute drive North to explore the majestic Redwood National and State Parks.
Loved the wall to wall windows and views and amenities. Had a great time staying here with easy access to the sunsets on the beach. The property managers were very helpful when we had to reschedule the reservation due to a winter storm in the area. Would definitely recommend this stay.
Such a great experience. The location is splendid! I loved the beach walks and the access to the ocean from this location. The people here are very friendly!
It's a great spot and I would return! 'Clean, comfortable and conveniently located near the best parts of the Humboldt coast. 'Right up the hill from beautiful Moonstone Beach. Oh, and the water pressure for the shower was great. I don't have any complaints. But the oven was broken and we were not informed in advance. Also, some of the light switches are located in weird spots in relation to the lights. It took a while to figure two of them out. You might want to label some of the switches to avoid confusion for future guests. Thanks for having us!
We enjoyed our stay at Moonstone beach very much. The house was very clean and had a well stocked kitchen with everything we needed. The nearby road did not bother us. We liked having an outdoor grill. We liked the location not far from the restaurants and shops of cute Arcata. Had a great time and hope to be back again!
Our family of four loved our stay - Moonstone Beach especially!! The washer/dryer were convenient for us as we were halfway through a longer trip, and needed to do a couple loads of laundry. The walk to the beach wasn't long (maybe five minutes down to the water) but it was quite steep coming back up. Loved being relatively close to the fairy forest, as well - great location overall! Note there is another unit on the lower level; not sure if that's another renter or the owner, but they were very quiet. This may just added a touch of anxiety if traveling with young/unpredictable kids; I hope we were quiet enough so as to not disturb them! Thank you for accommodating a very peaceful adventure in the Redwoods!! :)
The property is just as discribed. Great view and access to the beach and access to all the great hikes in the Redwood National and state parks.
This was a perfect place to stay to explore the coast and Redwood Forest. It was clean, comfortable, and easy to access. The property manager was easy to contact and responded quickly to texts. We would definitely stay here again!
So very comfortable- clean and beautiful. Fantastic views and a wonderful way to spend time with our family. Our son graduated and the home was a bonus to the experience. Thank you for all you provided. Would recommend to everyone ❣️❣️
We had a wonderful time visiting with family and exploring the gorgeous coast and redwood forests in the area. The home was extremely clean and comfortable. We had everything we needed. Would definitely return for another stay.
Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: A great house with beautiful windows along the entire front of the house, open to nature and sunshine! We had gorgeous fall weather during our stay and our family lives close by so was a perfect spot for us to come together for walks and play at the beach, suppers and card games! Remodeled kitchen and open areas bright and clean as was the bathroom! I’m always thinking of a night light in rentals and that was perhaps the only thing missing! Management was excellent with our few requests, no loud traffic issues noted and both bedrooms have blackout curtains and blinds, very comfortable beds!

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We had a wonderful time staying here. The kitchen was well stocked, the beds were comfy and the view was spectacular. We were not at all. Othered by traffic noise, either during the day or at night. You can walk to the beach or to the delicious restaurant just down the hill, and you can see the ocean (or the fog) just by looking out the many living room windows. We also really enjoyed putting together the many puzzles they had on offer. We would definitely stay here again.

Place was really nice, beautiful ocean view within walking distance. Great starting point to the Redwoods. House was comfortable and well stocked. Beds were very comfortable. Only issue was a terrible sour smell I think came from the bathroom shower curtains! Also, would be nice to have some beach chairs to use.
We liked the grand view of the ocean with the picture windows and rocking chairs. The kitchen was exceptional and had everything we needed to cook all our meals. The Moonstone Beach, just a walk away was gorgeous. The wall paintings by Jan were inspiring. A very restful time and launching pad to explore the environs. Thank you.
Ok, but there are probably better choices. In need of upgrades. Road noise. Nice kitchen area.
Nice spacious sectional in very bright living room for family to sprawl out in the evenings. House is very clean. It is easy to find off Rt101. The road noise was not an issue for us as it quieted by time we went to bed after 10pm and we were up by 7am. Easy walk less than 10 min walk to Moonstone Beach with spectacular sunsets. Other beaches less than 10 min drive-best tide pools we found on our entire trip were 5-8 minutes away by car at Luffenholtz Beach. The Cafe in town has very good food, the pizza place in town so-so. Murphy's market has most things you could need and great sandwiches. My few complaints are: the beds were so-so comfort wise (not firm enough), the pillows very flat, and some additional thinner blanket options needed. The location was great for us as we did a mix of redwood park hiking, tide pool searching, and beach viewing. If you are in the Eureka area, the small zoo there has a very fun elevated redwood tree walk. Overall a very good stay.
Trinidad is a great town to stay in when visiting the area. Helpful friendly hosts. Comfortable place that is a short walk to the incredible Moonstone beach.
Wonderful property at a world class location
Perfect location, great views, well-appointed kitchen. We’ll be back!
This house had everything we needed…it was immaculate and the view of tho ocean and proximity to the beach were amazing!
