Beautiful home in peaceful location close to the amazing Trinidad Beach and Patricks Point State Park. Kitchen had everything we needed for cooking meals. Disappointed in the demands to avoid using island surface due to possible staining. Expected more than a mattress/box spring on the floor in master. Soiled rugs and bed duvet. Yard did not appear to be 7 acres. Overgrown and unable to walk past small bridge by pond. Overall we enjoyed our stay despite the above concerns.

My wife and I recently stayed here during a 3 day stop in the Redwoods. The location (just outside of Trinidad) is perfect for someone looking to experience the Redwood parks. It's a short drive from Jedediah Smith and Prairie Creek parks which have some of the best old growth stands of Redwoods.

The property is beautifully landscaped (we were there in spring when the rhododendrons were blooming), very quiet and secluded.

The property has all the amenities that you would need in a vacation home including laundry, a fireplace and charcoal grill. We cooked most all of our meals at the property, so we didn't eat out much, but Trinidad had some nice restaurant options and the property is within walking distance of the Larrupin Cafe which is supposed to be very good.

The only negative I had was that some of the finishes in the house (white carpet, unsealed pine counter top, softwood floors) aren't particularly kid friendly.

I would definitely recommend this property, it's not much more expensive than surrounding "lodges" and much nicer and more secluded.

This is the second time we are renting this place. We once again loved the stay at this beautiful house! The house is perfectly kept and beautifully landscaped. We also visited Fern Canyon recommended by the owner of the house and it turned out to be a perfect spot even for the my 2 yr old. We all had a great time there. Thanks Lesley for all the tips and recommendations!! Would be definitely coming back again.
