Beautiful, large clean home, stunningly decorated. This was our second stay here and it was perfect, down to the luminaries out front on Christmas Eve. Thanks Mercedes for another great stay!

My family and I enjoyed our Christmas vacation. It was a home away from home. I was raised in the same neighborhood, so there was no need for recommendations. We will definitely be back in 2025. Thank you for your hospitality.

4.83 out of 5 average rating, 260 reviewsOcean View w/ HOT TUB, Organic Garden, Propane BBQ
I booked this place as a surprise to celebrate my boyfriend’s birthday. We loved our stay so much. The little cottage is so cute and the sheep were fun to go out and watch in the mornings. The hot tub was definitely our favorite thing about our stay! Being out there at night with the stars and cute backyard set up was amazing. The view from the kitchen was insane! Since we were so close we decided to drive up to Oregon and visit the coast. On our way down we stopped by the Trees of Mystery which was so fun! We made s’mores and enjoyed the fire pit as well. Thank you for letting us stay, we’ll miss it very much.

4.92 out of 5 average rating, 317 reviewsCoastal-Country Cottage (Pet friendly with fee).
Peaceful, quiet, safe, clean, good location and attentive home owner. Good water pressure, comfy beds, plenty of towels (good towels) and several pillow options. Washer and dryer worked well. Kitchen had more than enough pots, pans, amenities to make dinners and snacks. Grocery store is only 2 miles away. Stayed with my adult kids for a week to see family. We all loved the place and recommend it highly. We will come again. It’s close to the 101, but we never heard the freeway traffic. Tucked away, and easy to miss the turn the first time. We read the reviews and were ready to look for it.

Awesome stay to visit Redwood National Park and the surrounding area of Eureka! The house was so nice to relax and enjoy a sunset off the back porch. The house was clean and felt very safe. My family loved staying here and would absolutely stay again! It was really easy to communicate with the hosts when we had questions as well!

5 out of 5 average rating, 102 reviewsBeautiful House with Hot Tub in Sunny Blue Lake
This was one of the best air bnb experiences we have ever had. Amenities were better than we ever expected. Especially the laundry pods and labeled kitchen. Being pet friendly was just what we needed when we found out our dog had cancer just days before our trip. We will definitely be booking this place again.

Home in Trinidad
4.87 out of 5 average rating, 68 reviewsBeautiful Views in Trinidad w/Hot Tub + Sauna
This was our second stay with Sean & Sam. The house is a perfect retreat, close to nature but also a quick trip to the market. The hot tub and sauna are also a nice addition for coming out of the Humboldt chill. We hope to stay again soon!

4.89 out of 5 average rating, 173 reviewsTranquil Redwood Retreat. Hot Tub on back deck!
Absolutely beautiful. Looked even better than the pictures. A dozen redwood trees in the backyard with a hot tub and twinkle lights. How does it get any better? Absolutely gorgeous home. All of the things you need in the kitchen. Jetted tub and the biggest shower ever. The best airbnb we've stayed in, and we've stayed in a lot. Didn't want to leave and would love to go back. Plenty of space for our family of 7. Quiet, peaceful and safe area. Loved every second of being there. Close to the redwood forest scenic highway of the giant trees and close to the beautiful beaches. Loved taking drives all over the area. Loved everything about this home and area!!! Thanks for a relaxing and comfortable stay.
