Puffin's Perch offers the perfect recipe for a memorable getaway with a spectacular oceanfront setting mere feet from the bluff's edge, showcased by whitewater cove views. This dreamy cottage features a wall of glass that faces the sea for breathtaking sights along with a healthy dose of quality furnishings including a private hot tub to relax your muscles in after days of adventuring. Garnish with abundant wildlife like a resident mule deer family, gulls, geese, sea lions, and whales, and top it off with a bright interior brimming with natural light, a fully outfitted kitchen, a cozy fireplace to curl up to, and a 50" TV with premium cable, and you've got yourself a dream, cliffside ocean vacation.
A comfortable queen bed ensures that you'll receive a great night's rest while listening to the ocean waves roll in. With a fresh remodel, Puffin's Perch now features a washer/dryer, refrigerator, and loft with a memory foam-topped rollaway for those in need of a separate bed. After a day of adventure at the beach where you can wade in the water as long as you like, cozy up by the firepit and watch the stars come out to dot the sky.
Ideally set between the towns of Mendocino and Fort Bragg, Puffin's Perch is just a few miles from amenities and attractions like Mendocino Village, but in a seaside setting seemingly worlds away from civilization.

This was the most magical place I’ve ever been to. I surprised my fiancée with a trip here for her 30th birthday and I proposed to her on the bench overlooking the waves. Our whole stay felt like a dream. Nothing beats sitting in the hot tub and watching the sunset, or falling asleep to the waves outside. There were also very thoughtful touches throughout the house, like the heated bathroom floors, heated toilet seat/bidet, the recliners, the remote-controlled bed (zero G was my favorite setting), and the very nice washer and dryer. I have had so many people ask me about this place already and I recommend it to anybody!
This property provided ultimate relaxation and luxury for a tranquil escape along the coast. Thoughtfully outfitted cottage left nothing to want. From the jaw dropping views, to the heated bathroom floors, to the adjustable base bed, and perfectly clean home, I cannot say enough about this thoughtfully appointed home that checked all boxes for comfort and relaxation! I have recommended this property to friends and look forward to booking again soon. Thank you so much for this lovely escape!
Puffin's Perch is one of those extraordinary places that cannot be adequately captured by photos or words! My beloved and I just enjoyed 3 luxurious nights there, and came away feeling so deeply renewed, resourced, and blessed by our stay. The location could not be more beautiful. Right on the bluffs, we slept peacefully to the sound of the ocean's waves crashing into the cliffs. It's the absolutely perfect place for an inspiring romantic getaway, for a solo writing retreat, really for anything at all. We loved every minute and absolutely plan to return. Super grateful to have discovered this gem!!
This is a special place where we celebrated our 2nd Anniversary many moons ago and just recently our 29th. I was so happy to discover it was back on as a vacation rental. Unlike us, it looks even better than it did the first time we stayed! The views are just as beautiful and the atmosphere just as special. Nothing like watching the ocean waves from the comfort of your bed and deck and hot tub... Lots of thoughtful amenities and well stocked kitchen to boot. Can't wait to come back!
We loved that it felt very secluded but close to amenities such as grocery stores. The home was clean, cozy and stocked with everything we needed during our stay. The bed was very comfortable. Loved the heated floors in the bathroom. The only downside not much to do in Fort Bragg.
This was a fantastic property. Right on the ocean. A nice hike just a short walk away. Away from the hustle of life but not too far from conveniences. The hot tub and fire pit were awesome. We saw sea lions, deer, dolphins and even whales. We hope to return in the future.
We enjoyed our stay here, will definitely go back again! Ocean Views were amazing. Wildlife, birds and sunsets!!
If you want a perfect place to stay on the Mendocino Coast it doesn’t get much better than Puffin’s Perch. A great location on the outskirts of Fort Bragg, centrally located between the lovely town of Mendocino to the South and Fort Bragg’s bustling downtown to the North. Puffin’s Perch is a fabulous place for couples to stay. The A frame cottage is spacious with all the amenities you need for a relaxing stay. The view of the crashing waves on the coastal cliffs is breathtaking, especially from the hot tub or deck. My wife and I recently returned to Puffin’s Perch 31 years after our first stay. A lot has changed in those years and we loved it all the more.
This cottage is an absolute oasis. The view is incredible. There is nothing more romantic than watching the sunset from the hot tub. It has all the amenities you need for a beautiful vacation.
This is the most peaceful and beautifully located destination we’ve ever traveled to. The house is warm and welcoming. It has every amenity you can think of, providing the most relaxing and comfortable vacation imaginable. Thank you to our hosts for creating such a serene and absolutely amazing get away.
I absolutely love this property. Incredible view, comfortable bed, excellent finishes, great heating system (gas fireplace) controlled by thermostat, washer/dryer, hot tub, and the surprisingly popular heated toilet seat. I will be coming back if I am so lucky.
