This spectacular, historic estate sits on 7.5 acres w/ a main house built in 1860. The Fensalden, formerly a Wells Fargo stage coach stop, this grand main residence is graced w/ocean views from all west facing rooms, walkable land to explore & within walking distance to coastal trails. 6 of our bedroom here are ensuite (full bath in each room), each with their own exterior deck affording incredible privacy which few other properties can match. These 5 spacious & private retreats, 1 bedroom w/pull out queen couch and our 1 large "bunk room" comfortably sleep 20 guests. We also offer four well-appointed living areas spread out over the 5000 sq ft residence, each spot with its own unique character and designed so our guests can spread out enjoy a book while taking in the views, catch a movie on one of the two large TV's in this house or pull out the laptop to jump on our vibrant WIFI. The two large kitchens will easily support your group/family needs, along with multiple view dining areas.
Outside you’ll find incredible tranquility just exploring the 7+ acres or sitting back in one of pasture sitting areas surrounded by Adirondack seating, fire pits and the spectacular westerly views/sounds of the wild Pacific Ocean. This easily accessible but very private property lies within 10 mins of Mendocino & within a 1-5 minute drive of some of the best coastal restaurant/bars that northern California has to offer, beaches, coastal trails, Redwood forest, multiple rivers, golf/tennis, kayaking & state parks. The Anderson Valley wineries are all within 30 mins via one of our countries most pleasant/beautiful Redwood Forest drives (Hwy 128) you could ever imagine.

We rented the beautiful main house as well as the other 3 smaller houses on the property to celebrate my 50th with a large group of friends and family (2-60yrs old). This property was absolutely gorgeous and worked perfectly for our crew of 33! All 4 houses felt very welcoming and cozy and easily handled our group’s varying needs and sleeping accommodations. They are even pet friendly so the fur babies weren’t left behind! The main house’s two kitchens were used easily to feed everyone and were well stocked with enough dinnerware & serving dishes. We brought a few insta-pots ourselves to use for a couple of the meals but found nothing lacking when cooking without them (altho an additional or bigger salad spinner would be helpful). The only thing overall that could have been better was the weather so that we could’ve played outside and enjoyed the decks and huge lawns more! I highly recommend building a fenced in dog area away from the road as it would make the dog owners in our crew die hard repeat customers for life! The owner, Henry, was a dream to work with! Very friendly and accommodating, always quick to respond to my questions and needs during our stay as well as the lead up to it. We will definitely be back, in fact, my friends are already plotting various reasons to make that happen. ?
This vacation rental is a delightful retreat near Mendocino. With its tasteful decor, well-equipped kitchen, comfortable living area, and serene outdoor space, it offers a luxurious yet homey experience. The host is helpful, great communication, the location is very close to the ocean, and the property maintains a tranquil atmosphere. Our group enjoyed every bit. A true five-star stay that I highly recommend!
Well-appointed large home with plenty of space to enjoy with our young and adult children. The owner was very responsive and helpful during the entire stay. The house had everything needed to relax, cook and enjoy the area. The fire pit outside was a hit, and we had a great time. Definitely recommend and will be back.
